DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[NAFTA-04812]


Cemex Kosmos Cement Company, Pittsburgh Plant, Pittsburgh, PA; 
Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for 
Reconsideration

    By letter of July 20, 2001 the International Brotherhood of Boiler 
Makers, Iron Ship Builders, Blacksmiths, Forgers and Helpers requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for NAFTA 
Transitional Adjustment Assistance, applicable to petition number NAFTA 
04613. The denial notice was signed on June 26, 2001 and published in 
the Federal Register on July 11, 2001 (66 FR 36329).
    The union requested administrative reconsideration based on the 
belief that Cemex (the acquiring company of the subject plant) replaced 
the subject plants customer base with imported cement products from 
Mexico.

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.
