Eastalco Aluminum Company, a Subsidiary of Alcoa; Frederick, 
Maryland; Eastalco Aluminum Company, a Subsidiary of Alcoa, Pier 
Facility; Baltimore, Maryland; Notice of Revised Determination of 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on Reconsideration

    By letter dated March 20, 2006, representatives of the United 
Workers, Local 7886, and the company officials requested administrative 
reconsideration regarding Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance 
(ATAA). The certification for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) was 
signed on February 2, 2006. The Notice of determination was published 
in the Federal Register on February 22, 2006 (71 FR 9160).
    The initial investigation determined that subject worker group 
possess skills that are easily transferable.
    New information provided by the company officials show that the 
workers possess skills that are not easily transferable.
    At least five percent of the workforce at the subject from is at 
least fifty years of age. Competitive conditions within the industry 
are adverse.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I conclude that the requirements of Section 246 of the 
Trade Act of 1974, as amended, have been met for workers at the subject 
firm.
    In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following 
certification:

    All workers of Eastalco Aluminum Company, A Subsidiary of Alcoa, 
Frederick, Maryland (TA-W-58,288) and Eastalco Aluminum Company, A 
Subsidiary of Alcoa, Pier Facility, Baltimore, Maryland (TA-W-
58,288A) who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after November 7, 2004 through February 2, 2008, are eligible 
to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade 
Act of 1974, and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade 
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 23rd day of March 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
