[TA-W-73,351]


Sandy Alexander; Clifton, NJ; Notice of Affirmative Determination 
Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated January 6, 2011, by a petitioner requested 
administrative reconsideration of the negative determination regarding 
workers' eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) 
applicable to workers and former workers of Sandy Alexander, Clifton, 
New Jersey (subject firm). The determination was issued on November 24, 
2010. The Department's Notice of Determination was published in the 
Federal Register on December 8, 2010 (75 FR 76489). The workers are 
engaged in activities related to the production of printed materials.
    The negative determination was based on the findings that the 
petitioning worker group did not meet the eligibility criteria set 
forth in the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
    In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner supplied new 
information regarding an alleged shift in production to China.
    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 
petitioning workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade Act 
of 1974, as amended.

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 21st day of January, 2011.
Del Min Amy Chen,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
