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
eligibility 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 January 29, 2001, and filed on behalf of workers at
Production Stamping, division of Talon Automotive Group, Oxford,
Michigan. The workers produced stamped automotive components.
This investigation revealed that the subject firm has
terminated all production and employment at the subject plant and
increased their reliance on like and directly competitive products
from foreign sources.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with stamped automotive components
produced by Production Stamping, division of Talon Automotive
Group, Oxford, Michigan 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 Production Stamping, division of Talon
Automotive Group, Oxford, Michigan, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after January 17,
2000, through two years from the date of certification are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223
of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 13th day of March, 2001.
