Ultimizers, Inc., Boring, OR; Notice of Affirmative Determination 
Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated September 21, 2009, a company official 
requested administrative reconsideration of the negative determination 
regarding workers' eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 
(TAA) applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm. The 
determination was issued on September 9, 2009. The Notice of 
Determination will soon be published in the Federal Register.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the finding that imports of optimizing lumber cut-off saws, 
feeders, sorters and scanners did not contribute importantly to worker 
separations at the subject firm and no shift of production to a foreign 
source occurred.
    In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided 
additional information regarding customers of the subject firm and 
imports of optimizing lumber cut-off saws, feeders, sorters and 
scanners.
    The Department has carefully reviewed the request for 
reconsideration and the existing record and has determined that 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 U.S. 
Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, 
granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 15th day of October 2009.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
