Investigations Regarding Certifications of Eligibility To Apply 
for Worker Adjustment Assistance

    Petitions have been filed with the Secretary of Labor under Section 
221(a) of the Trade Act of 1974 (``the Act'') and are identified in the 
Appendix to this notice. Upon receipt of these petitions, the Program 
Manager of the Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance, Employment and 
Training Administration, has instituted investigations pursuant to 
Section 221 (a) of the Act.
    The purpose of each of the investigations is to determine whether

II, Chapter 2, of the Act. The investigations will further relate, as 
appropriate, to the determination of the date on which total or partial 
separations began or threatened to begin and the subdivision of the 
firm involved.
    The petitioners or any other persons showing a substantial interest 
in the subject matter of the investigations may request a public 
hearing, provided such request is filed in writing with the Program 
Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance, at the address shown
