NATIONAL STEEL COMPANY
GRANITE CITY, ILLINOIS

Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Section 221 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended,
an investigation was initiated on April 30, 2003 in response to a
worker petition filed by International Chemical Workers Union
Council, Local 50, on behalf of workers at U.S. Steel Company,
Granite City, Illinois. Evidence developed in the course of the
investigation revealed that workers at this location were employed
by National Steel Corporation on the date the petition was filed.
The petitioning group of workers is covered by an earlier
petition filed on April 24, 2003 (TA-W-51,611) 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 has been terminated.
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 2nd day of June 2003.
