ACTION:
Notice and opportunity for public comment.
[top] Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2341 et seq. ), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has received petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance from the firms listed below. Accordingly, EDA has initiated investigations to determine whether increased imports into the United States of articles like or directly competitive with those produced by each of these firms contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of the firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease in sales or production of each petitioning firm.
