Determination on Reconsideration

    On November 16, 1994, the Department issued an Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration for workers and 
former workers of the subject firm. This notice will soon be published 
in the Federal Register.
    On reconsideration, the James River Corporation submitted new 
information showing that hardwood pulp sales by the company declined in 
1993 compared to 1992. The initial findings show substantial worker 
separations in 1993.
    U.S. imports of hardwood pulp increased absolutely and relative to 
domestic shipments in 1993 compared to 1992.
    Further findings on reconsideration show that a major declining 
customer increased its imports of hardwood pulp while decreasing its 
purchases from the subject firm.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on 
reconsideration, it is concluded that the James River Corporation 
workers in old Town, Maine were adversely affected by increased imports 
of articles like or directly competitive with hardwood pulp producer at 
James River Corporation in Old Town, Maine.

    ``All workers of James River corporation in Old Town, Maine who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after
