Lonza, Inc. Riverside Plant; Lonza Exclusive Synthesis Section 
Custom Manufacturing Division Including On-Site Leased Workers of Lab 
Support, Aerotek, Job Exchange, and Synerfac; Conshohocken, PA; Notice 
of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated December 5, 2009, the United Steel Workers, 
Local 6816-18, 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 November 5, 2009. The Notice of Determination will soon 
be published in the Federal Register.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the findings that imports of Trityl Losartan 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.
    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 23rd day of December, 2009.
Del Min Amy Chen,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
