[Federal Register Volume 65, Number 10 (Friday, January 14, 2000)] [Notices] [Page 2435] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 00-941] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration [TA-W-36, 824] Crouse-Hinds Division of Cooper Industries Syracuse, New York; Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration On December 2, 1999, the Department issued an Affirmative Determination Regarding Application on Reconsideration applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm. The notice was published in the Federal Register on December 23, 1999 (64 FR 72101). The Department initially denied TAA to workers of Crouse-Hinds Division of Cooper Industries, Syracuse, New York, producing EMT electrical fittings because none of the worker group eligibility requirements of Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, were met. On reconsideration, the subject firm provided additional information on imports of EMT electrical fittings. Findings on reconsideration show that the subject firm increased their reliance on imports of EMT electrical fittings. The petitioners, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW). Local 2084, have provided additional information showing that there is a threat of worker separations at the subject plant in Syracuse, New York. Conclusion After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with EMT electrical fittings, contributed importantly to the declines in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of workers of Crouse-Hinds Division of Cooper Industries. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification: ``All workers of Crouse-Hinds Division of Cooper Industries, Syracuse, New York, engaged in employment related to the production of EMT electrical fittings, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after September 1, 1998 through two years from the date of this issuance, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.'' Signed in Washington, DC this 4th day of January 2000. Grant D. Beale, Program Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc. 00-941 Filed 1-13-00; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4510-30-M
