seq.), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has received 
petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for Trade 
Adjustment Assistance from the firms listed below. EDA has initiated 
separate investigations to determine whether increased imports into the

produced by each firm contributed importantly to the total or partial 
separation of the firm's workers, or threat.
