Willamette Industries Saginaw Lam. Plant, Saginaw, Oregon; Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

By letter of August 12, 1998, the company requested administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance, applicable to petition number TA-W-34,700. The denial notice was signed on August 4, 1998 and will soon be published in the Federal Register.

The petitioner alleges that like or directly competitive products other than laminated beams are being imported into the U.S. resulting in declines in production and sales of laminated beams.

Conclusion

After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

Signed at Washington, DC this 26th day of August 1998. Grant D. Beale, Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
