Pixel Playground, Inc., Woodland Hills, California; Notice of 
Revised Determination on Reconsideration

    On December 9, 2014, the Department of Labor issued a Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance applicable to workers and former workers of Pixel 
Playground, Inc., Woodland Hills, California (subject firm). The 
Department's Notice was published in the Federal Register on September 
29, 2014 (79 FR 58383). Workers at the subject firm were engaged in 
employment related to the supply of digital augmentation services.
    In an application dated January 26, 2015, a former worker via legal 
counsel requested administrative reconsideration of the negative 
determination applicable to workers and former workers of the subject 
firm. The request for reconsideration alleges that workers at the 
subject firm are eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 
(TAA) under Section 222(b) of the Trade Act, 19 U.S.C. 2272(b).
    A careful review of administrative record and additional 
investigation confirmed the following:
    Section 222(b)(1) has been met because a significant number or 
proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have become totally or 
partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or partially 
separated.
    Section 222(b)(2) has been met because Pixel Playground Inc., 
Woodland Hills, California is a Supplier to a firm that employed a 
group of workers who received a certification of eligibility under 
Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2272(a), and such supply is 
related to the service that was the basis for such certification.
    Section 222(b)(3)(B) has been met because the loss of business by 
Pixel Playground Inc., Woodland Hills, California with the firm that 
employed a certified worker group contributed importantly to worker 
separations at Pixel Playground Inc., Woodland Hills, California.

Conclusion

    After careful review, I determine that workers and former workers 
of the subject firm, who are engaged in employment related to the 
supply of digital augmentation services, meet the worker group 
certification criteria under Section 222(b) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 
2272(b). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2273, I 
make the following certification:

    All workers of Pixel Playground Inc., Woodland Hills, 
California, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after April 23, 2012 through two years from the 
date of this certification, and all workers in the group threatened 
with total or partial separation from employment on the date of 
certification through two years from the date of certification, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title 
II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.


    Signed in Washington, DC, this 22nd day of April 2015.
Michael W. Jaffe,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
