employment after December 8, 1993 (date of enactment of P.L. 103-182) 
are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Subchapter D of the Trade Act 
because of increased imports from or the shift in production to Mexico 
or Canada.
    The petitioners or any other persons showing a substantial interest 
in the subject matter of the investigations may request a public 
hearing with the Director of OTAA at the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) 
in Washington, D.C. provided such request is filed in writing with the
