DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-53,169]


Dresser, Inc., Dresser Piping Specialties Division, Bradford, PA; 
Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for 
Reconsideration

    By letter of January 23, 2004, a company official requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department's determination 
regarding eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) 
applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm.
    The Department's negative determination was issued on December 24, 
2003, and the notice of determination was published in the Federal 
Register on January 16, 2004 (69 FR 2622).
    In a March 11, 2004, communication, the petitioner alleged that the 
Department incorrectly interpreted previously submitted information. In 
various subsequent submissions, the petitioner provided new information 
that indicated that the Department may have conducted the initial 
investigation on the wrong product.
    The Department has reviewed the request for reconsideration and has 
determined that the petitioner has provided additional information. 
Therefore, the Department will conduct further investigation to 
determine if the workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade 
Act of 1974.

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 in Washington, DC, this 16th day of June 2004.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
