Summit Timber Company Darrington, WA, Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By letter of May 14, 2001, the company requested administrative 
reconsideration of the Department's negative determination regarding 
eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and North 
American Free Trade Agreement-Transitional Adjustment Assistance 
(NAFTA-TAA), applicable to workers and former workers of the subject 
firm. The denial notices were signed on April 6, 2001, and were 
published in the Federal Register on May 2, 2001 (66 FR 22006) and (66 
FR 22007), respectively.
    The company supplied an additional list of customers which was not 
supplied during the initial investigation. The company believes these 
customers may be importing softwood lumber during the relevant period.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim 
is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of 
Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 24th day of September, 2001.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
