Normandy Manufacturing Company, Inc., Paducah, Kentucky; Revised 
Determination on Reconsideration

    On August 30, 1994, the Department issued an Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration for the former 
workers of the subject firm. The notice was published in the Federal 
Register on September 9, 1994 (59 FR 46669).
    Investigation findings show that all production ceased in March 
1994 when all production workers were laid off.
    U.S. imports of women's and girls' dresses, slacks and shorts, 
blouses and shirts increased absolutely in 1993 compared to 1992.
    On reconsideration, the Department surveyed the subject firm's 
major declining customers for the relevant period. The survey findings 
show that customers accounting for a substantial portion of the subject 
firm's sales in 1993 increased their import purchases of women's 
apparel while reducing their purchases from the subject firm.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on 
reconsideration, it is concluded that the former workers of Normandy 
Manufacturing Company, Inc., in Paducah, Kentucky were adversely 
affected by increased imports of articles like or directly competitive 
with women's apparel produced at Normandy Manufacturing Company, Inc., 
in Paducah, Kentucky.

    All workers of Normandy Manufacturing Company, Inc., in Paducah, 
Kentucky who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after April 4, 1993 are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C., this 13th day of September 1994.
Victor J. Trunzo,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
