Borg Warner Automotive Muncie, Indiana; Notice of Revised 
Determination on Reconsideration

    By application dated February 4, 1997, the company and the UAW 
Local 287 requested administrative reconsideration of the Department's 
negative determination regarding worker eligibility to apply for trade 
adjustment assistance. The denial notice applicable to workers of the 
subject firm in Muncie, Indiana, was signed on January 22, 1997 and 
published in the Federal Register on February 13, 1997 (62 FR 6803).
    A late response to the customer survey conducted by the Department

[[Page 32379]]

revealed that a customer of the subject firm increased import purchases 
of rear wheel drive manual transmissions while purchases from the 
subject firm remained constant.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on reopening, 
it is concluded that increased imports of articles like or directly 
competitive with rear drive manual transmissions produced by the 
subject firm contributed importantly to the decline in sales and to the 
total or partial separation of workers of the subject firm. In 
accordance with the provisions of the Trade Act of 1974, I make the 
following revised determination:

    All workers of Borg Warner Automotive, Muncie, Indiana who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
November 11, 1995, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance 
under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 23rd day of May 1997.
Russell T. Kile,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
