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 February 5, 2001, and filed on behalf of workers at
Hayes Lemmerz International, Homer Operations, Homer, Michigan.
The workers produce brake rotors and drums.
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 major
customers of the subject firm regarding their purchases of brake
rotors and drums. The results of the survey revealed that
customers increased their purchases of imported brake rotors and
drums in 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 brake rotors and drums produced at
Hayes Lemmerz International, Automotive Brake Components, Homer
Operations, Homer, 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 Hayes Lemmerz International, Homer
Operations, Homer, Michigan who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 19, 2000,
through two years from the date of this certification, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section
223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 12th day of March, 2001.
