DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-62,404]


Motor Wheel Commercial Vehicle Systems, Full Cast/Assembly Area, 
Berea, KY; Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application 
for Reconsideration

    On January 8, 2008, the Department of Labor (Department) received a 
request for administrative reconsideration of the Department's Notice 
of Negative Determination regarding workers' eligibility to apply for 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) applicable to workers 
and former workers of the subject firm. The determination was issued on 
November 30, 2007. The Department's Notice of Determination Regarding 
ATAA was published in the Federal Register on December 11, 2007 (72 FR 
70346).
    The negative determination was based on the Department's findings 
that the workers in the workers' firm possess skills that are easily 
transferable.
    In the request for reconsideration, a worker alleged that 
``salaries at other factories in similar jobs are much lower'' than 
wages paid by the subject firm.
    The Department has carefully reviewed the 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 U.S. 
Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, 
granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 30th day of January 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
