Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Section 221 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended,
an investigation was initiated on July 20, 2004 in response to a
worker petition filed by a State agency representative on behalf
of workers at Ahearn & Soper Company, Inc., East Syracuse, New
York.
The petition regarding the investigation has been deemed
invalid. In order to establish a valid worker group, there must
be at least three full-time workers employed at some point during
the period under investigation. Workers of the group subject to
this investigation did not meet the threshold of employment.
Consequently the investigation has been terminated.
