The petitions were submitted pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade 
Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341). Consequently, the United States 
Department of Commerce has initiated separate investigations to 
determine whether increased imports into the United States of 
articles like or directly competitive with those produced by each 
firm contributed importantly to total or partial separation of the 
firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease in sales or 
production of each petitioning firm. Any party having a substantial 
interest in the proceedings may request a public hearing on the 
matter. A request for a hearing must be received by Trade Adjustment 
Assistance, Room 7812, Economic Development Administration, U.S. 
Department of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230, no later than the 
close of business of the tenth calendar day following the 
publication of this notice. The Catalog of Federal Domestic 
Assistance official program number and title of the program under 
which these petitions are submitted is 11.313, Trade Adjustment 
Assistance.
