DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-59,533]


Yakima Resources, LLC; Yakima, WA; Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated August 17, 2006, the Western Council of 
Industrial Workers, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of 
America (Union), 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 Department's determination was issued 
on August 4, 2006. The Department's Notice of determination was 
published in the Federal Register on August 16, 2006 (71 FR 47253).
    The denial was based on the Department's findings that, during the

relevant period, the subject company did not import plywood or shift 
production of plywood overseas and that the subject company's only 
customer did not import plywood.
    The Union requests that the Department investigate whether the 
subject company or its customers imported oriented strand board (OSB), 
a product which is like and directly competitive with plywood.
    The Department has carefully reviewed the Union's request for 
reconsideration and has determined that the Department will conduct 
further investigation.

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 12th day of September 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
