State of Alaska Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission Permit 
Number S03T56513U, Manokotak, AK; Notice of Revised Determination on 
Reconsideration

    By letter of April 25, 2003, the company official requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department's Negative 
Determination Regarding Eligibility for Workers under State of Alaska 
Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission Permit Number S03T56513U, 
Manokotak, Alaska, to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on April 24, 2003 (68 FR 
20177).
    The initial petition was denied because there had been no 
employment decline. The company official however has provided 
information showing that all workers producing salmon were permanently 
separated from employment with the subject firm.
    The subject firm supplied salmon to a processor whose workers were 
certified eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance. The loss 
of business with the salmon processor contributed importantly to worker 
separations under State of Alaska Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission 
Permit Number S03T56513U, Manokotak, Alaska.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the facts obtained in the reconsideration, 
I determine that workers covered by State of Alaska Commercial 
Fisheries Entry Commission, Permit Number S03T56513U, Manokotak, 
Alaska, qualify as adversely affected secondary workers under section 
222 of the Trade Act of 1974.
    In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following 
revised determination:

    ``All workers of State of Alaska Commercial Fisheries Entry 
Commission, Permit Number S03T56513U, Manokotak, Alaska, who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after March 24, 
2002, through two years from the date of certification, are eligible 
to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade 
Act of 1974.''

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 1st day of December, 2003.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
