    Petitions for transitional adjustment assistance under the North 
American Free Trade Agreement-Transitional Adjustment Assistance 
Implementation Act (P.L. 103-182), hereinafter called (NAFTA-TAA), have 
been filed with State Governors under Section 250(a) of Subchapter D, 
Chapter 2, Title II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, are 
identified in the Appendix to this Notice. Upon notice from a Governor 
that a NAFTA-TAA petition has been received, the Director of the Office

of the petition and takes actions pursuant to paragraphs (c) and (e) of

investigations are to determine whether the workers separated from 
employment after December 8, 1993 (date of enactment of P.L. 103-182) 
are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Subchapter D of the Trade Act 
because of increased imports from or the shift in production to Mexico 
or Canada.
    The petitioners or any other persons showing a substantial interest 
in the subject matter of the investigations may request a public 
hearing with the Director of OTAA at the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) 
in Washington, DC, provided such request is filed in writing with the 
Director of OTAA not later than July 8, 1994.
    Also, interested persons are invited to submit written comments 
regarding the subject matter of the petitions to the Director of OTAA
