Pacer Industries, Inc., Echlin Engine Systems, Washington, MO; 
Notice of Revised Determination on Reopening

    On November 28, 1994, the Department, at the request of the State 
Agency, reopened its investigation for the workers and former workers 
of the subject firm in Washington, Missouri. The initial investigation 
resulted in a negative determination on September 7, 1994 which was 
published in the Federal Register on October 4, 1994   (59 FR 50624).
    Investigation findings show that workers at the subject firm 
produce automotive fuel system parts for the auto aftermarket. The 
workers were not separately identifiable by product.
    Other investigation findings show that sales and employment both 
decreased in 1993 compared to 1992 and in the first five months of 1994 
compared to the same period in 1993.
    Findings on reopening show that a major customer decreased its 
purchases of fuel system parts from Washington, Missouri and increased 
its import purchases in 1993 compared to 1992 and in the first five 
months of 1994 compared to the same period in 1993.
    The subject workers were previously certified on September 13, 
1994, under a NAFTA petition, NAFTA--00201.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on reopening, 
it is concluded that increased imports of articles like or directly 
competitive with automotive fuel system parts contributed importantly 
to the decline in sales or production and to the total of partial 
separation of workers at the subject facility. In accordance with the 
provisions of the Trade Act of 1974, I make the following revised 
determination:

    ``All workers and former workers of Echlin Engine Systems, in 
Washington, Missouri who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after June 3, 1993 are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 30th day of November 1994.

Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
