The petitions were submitted pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade

Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341). Consequently, the United States

Department of Commerce has initiated separate investigations to

determine whether increased imports into the United States of articles

like or directly competitive with those produced by each firm

contributed importantly to total or partial separation of the firm's

workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease in sales or production of

each petitioning firm.

Any party having a substantial interest in the proceedings may

request a public hearing on the matter. A request for a hearing must be

received by the Trade Adjustment Assistance Division, Room 7023,

Economic Development Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce,

Washington, D.C. 20230, no later than the close of business of the

tenth calendar day following the publication of this notice.
