DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-61,324]


Ford Motor Company, Vehicle Operations Division, Wixom Assembly 
Plant, Wixom, MI; Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding 
Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated June 22, 2007, the United Automobile, 
Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers of America requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers and former workers of the 
subject firm. The determination was signed on May 7, 2007 and published 
in the Federal Register on May 24, 2007 (72 FR 29182).
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the finding that imports of vehicles like or directly 
competitive with the Lincoln Towncar did not contribute importantly to 
worker separations at the subject firm and no shift of production to a 
foreign source occurred.
    The Department reviewed the request for reconsideration and has 
determined that the petitioner has provided additional information. 
Therefore, the Department will conduct further investigation to 
determine if the workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade 
Act of 1974.

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 in Washington, DC, this 10th day of July, 2007.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
