CREATEC CORPORATION

Negative Determination 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:
(1) that a significant number or proportion of the workers in
the workers' firm, or an appropriate subdivision thereof,
have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated;
(2) that sales or production, or both, of the firm or subdi-
vision have decreased absolutely; and
(3) that increases of imports of articles like or directly
competitive with articles produced by the firm or appro-
priate subdivision have contributed importantly to the
separations, or threat thereof, and to the absolute
decline in sales or production.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on March 5, 2001 and filed on behalf of workers at Createc
Corporation, Harrodsburg, Kentucky. The workers produced
polystyrene foam packaging material.
The investigation has revealed that criteria (3) has not been
met.
The investigation revealed that major customers of the subject
firm did not import polystyrene packaging during the relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers of Createc
Corporation, Harrodsburg, Kentucky are denied eligibility to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
