[NAFTA-04608]


Collis, Inc., Elizabethtown, KY; Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By letter of August 30, 2001 the United Steelworkers of America, 
AFL-CIO-CLC, District 8 requested administrative reconsideration of the 
Department of Labor's Notice of negative Determination Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance. The 
denial notice was signed on August 8, 2001 and published in the Federal 
Register on August 23, 2001 (66 FR 44378).
    The petitioner presented additional information that appears to 
warrant additional investigation. The information provided by the 
petitioner shows that a portion of plant production may have been 
shifted to Mexico. The information further shows the possibility of 
increased company imports from Mexico contributing importantly to the 
layoffs at the subject plant.

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 17th day of December 2001.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
