Union Wadding Company; Pawtucket, RI; Notice of Revised 
Determination of Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

    By letter dated December 29, 2004, a company official, requested 
administrative reconsideration regarding Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance (ATAA). The certification for Trade Adjustment Assistance 
was signed on December 16, 2004. The Notice of determination will soon 
be published in the Federal Register.
    The initial investigation determined that subject worker group 
possess skills that are easily transferable.

possess skills that are not easily transferable.
    At least five percent of the workforce at the subject firm is at 
least fifty years of age. Competitive conditions within the industry

firm.
    In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following 
certification:

    ``All workers of Union Wadding Company, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, 
who became totally or partially separated from employment on or

of 1974, and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade 
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
