[TA-W-39,266]


TDK Ferrites Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma; Notice of Revised 
Determination on Reconsideration

    By letter of September 10, 2001, the petitioners requested 
administrative reconsideration regarding the Department's Notice of 
Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance, applicable to the workers of the subject firm.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination for 
the workers engaged in the production of CR core ferrites and micro 
cores ferrites issued on August 29, 2001, based on the finding that the 
``contributed importantly'' test of the Group Eligibility Requirements 
of the Trade Act was not met. Also in the initial investigation the 
workers engaged in the production of EU core ferrites were certified 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974. The notice was published in the Federal Register on 
September 11, 2001 (66 FR 47241).
    To support the petitioners' request for reconsideration, the 
company provided in evidence to show that the company increased their 
imports of CR core ferrites during the relevant period.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or 
directly competitive with CR core parts produced at TDK Ferrites 
Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma, contributed importantly to the decline 
in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of 
workers at the subject firm. In accordance with the provisions of the 
Act, I make the following certification:

    All workers of TDK Ferrites Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma, 
engaged in activities related to the production of CR core ferrites 
and EU core ferrites who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after April 25, 2000 through two years from the 
date of this certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

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