Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273) as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act
of 1988 (P. L. 100-418), the Department of Labor herein presents
the results of an investigation regarding certification of eligi-
bility to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance
each of the group eligibility requirements of Section 222 of the
Act must be met. It is determined in this case that all of the
requirements have been met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on October 23, 2000 and filed on behalf of workers at
Universal Auto Radiator Mfg. Co., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The
workers were engaged in activities related to the production of
automobile radiators.
The investigation revealed that subject plant production and
employment declined during the relevant period.
The investigation further revealed that layoffs and declines
in production at the subject firm are related to the company
increasing their imports of automobile radiators during the
relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investi-
gation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles like or
directly competitive with automobile radiators contributed
importantly to the decline in sales or production and to the total
or partial separation of workers of that firm. In accordance with
the provisions of the Act, I make the following certifications:
"All workers of Universal Auto Radiator Mfg. Co., Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after October 10, 1999 through two years from
the date of certification are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
