DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-37,884]


Rycraft, Incorporated, Corvallis, OR; Notice of Revised 
Determination on Reconsideration

    On November 2, 2000, 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 November 15, 2000 (65 FR 69050).
    The Department initially denied TAA to workers of Rycraft, 
Incorporated, Corvallis, Oregon producing terra cotta cookie stamps 
because the ``contributed importantly'' group eligibility requirement 
of section 222(3) of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, was not met.
    On reconsideration, the Department conducted further survey of the 
major independent brokers of Rycraft. The survey revealed that the 
former customers of Rycraft imported substantial amounts of terra cotta 
cookie stamps while reducing purchases from Rycraft.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or 
directly competitive with terra cotta cookie stamps, contributed 
importantly to the declines in sales or production and to the total or 
partial separation of workers of Rycraft, Incorporated, Corvallis, 
Oregon. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the 
following certification:

    All workers of Rycraft, Incorporated, Corvallis, Oregon who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
June 27, 1999 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.


    Signed in Washington, D.C. this 22nd day of November 2000.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
