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 November 20, 2000, and filed on behalf of workers at
Central Industries of Indiana, Inc., Greenwood Arkansas Division,
Greenwood, Arkansas. The workers produced electrical wiring
harnesses. This investigation revealed that sales, production
and employment declined at the subject plant in the relevant
period.
 The Department of Labor conducted a survey of the major
customers of the subject firm regarding purchases of electrical
wiring harnesses. The results of the survey revealed that the
major customers increased their purchases of imported electrical
wiring harnesses while reducing purchases from the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investi-
gation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles like or
directly competitive electrical wiring harnesses produced at
Central Industries of Indiana, Inc., Greenwood Arkansas Division,
Greenwood, Arkansas, 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 certification:
"All workers of Central Industries of Indiana, Inc.,
Greenwood Arkansas Division, Greenwood, Arkansas, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
October 25, 1999, through two years from the date of this
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment assis-

tance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 31st day of January, 2001.
