DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-57,446]


Herules Incorporation, Aqualon Division, Parlin, NJ; Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By letter dated August 11, 2005, a representative of the 
International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 68, requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers of the subject firm. The 
determination was signed on July 20, 2005, and will soon be published 
in the Federal Register.
    The petitioner alleges in the request for reconsideration that 
workers were separated from the subject company's Power House, which 
provided steam to the subject company and Green Tea Chemical 
Technologies (TA-W-53,831, certified January 16, 2004). The petitioner 
further alleges that the separations were caused by the subject 
company's reduced need to provide steam to Green Tea Chemical 
Technologies facility.
    The Department carefully reviewed the petitioner's request for 
reconsideration and has determined that the Department will conduct 
further investigation based on new information provided by the 
petitioner.

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 19th day of August 2005.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
