SPECTRUM DYED YARNS, INC.
BELMONT, NORTH CAROLINA
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
Spectrum Dyed Yarns, Inc., Belmont, North Carolina. The workers
were engaged in the production of dyed yarn. The workers are not
separately identifiable by product line.
The investigation revealed that sales, production, and
employment declined at the subject plant during the relevant
period.
The U.S. Department of Labor conducted a survey of the subject
firm's major declining customer(s) regarding their purchases of
dyed yarns during the relevant period. The survey revealed that
a major customer increased their reliance on import purchases of
dyed yarns 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 with dyed yarn contributed importantly to the
decline in sales or production and to the total or partial
separation of workers of Spectrum Dyed Yarns, Inc., Belmont, North
Carolina. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Spectrum Dyed Yarns, Inc., Belmont, North
Carolina who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after January 23, 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."
