Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Section 221 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended,
an investigation was initiated on October 1, 2003 in response to a
petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of F/V
Big Dog, Palmer, Alaska (TA-W-53,037) and F/V Miss Julie, Palmer,
Alaska (TA-W-53,037A).
The investigation revealed that the subject firm did not
separate or threaten to separate a significant number or proportion
of workers as required by Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Significant number or proportion of the workers means that at least
three workers in a firm with a workforce of fewer than 50 workers
would have to be affected. Separations by the subject firm did not
meet this threshold level; consequently the investigation has been
terminated.
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 16th day of October 2003
