Pixel Playground, Inc. Woodland Hills, California; Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated January 26, 2015 a worker requested 
administrative reconsideration of the negative determination regarding 
workers' eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance 
applicable to workers and former workers of Pixel Playground, Inc., 
Woodland Hills, California. The determination was issued on December 9, 
2014 and the Notice of Determination was published in the Federal 
Register on September 29, 2014 (79 FR 58383).
    Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c) reconsideration may be granted under 
the following circumstances:
    (1) If it appears on the basis of facts not previously considered 
that the determination complained of was erroneous;
    (2) If it appears that the determination complained of was based on 
a mistake in the determination of facts not previously considered; or
    (3) If in the opinion of the Certifying Officer, a 
misinterpretation of facts or of the law justified reconsideration of 
the decision.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the findings that the firm did not shift the supply of 
services to a foreign country, that imports of like or directly 
competitive services did not increase, and that the firm was not a 
Supplier or Downstream Producer.
    The request for reconsideration asserts that workers of Pixel 
Playground, Inc. were impacted by international competition and 
increased imports. The request for reconsideration also asserts that 
the worker group served as a subcontractor supplier to a TAA-certified 
firm.
    The Department of Labor 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 26th day of March, 2015.
Michael W. Jaffe,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
