E9-20473. International Business Machines, Chicago, IL; Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, an investigation was initiated in response to a petition filed on July 20, 2009 by three workers on behalf of workers of International Business Machines, Chicago, Illinois.

The petitioning group of workers is covered by an earlier petition (TA-W-71,550) filed on July 1, 2009 that is the subject of an ongoing investigation for which a determination has not yet been issued. Further investigation in this case would duplicate efforts and serve no purpose; therefore the investigation under this petition (TA-W-71,735) has been terminated.

Signed at Washington, DC this 6th day of August 2009.

Elliott S. Kushner,

Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
