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 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:
(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 sub-
division have decreased absolutely; and
(3) that increases of imports of articles like or directly
competitive with articles produced by the firm or ap-
propriate subdivision have contributed importantly to the
separations, or threat thereof, and to the absolute
decline in sales or production.
The investigation was initiated on March 19, 2001, in response
to a petition filed by the company on behalf of workers at Pacific
Tube Co., Los Angeles, California. The workers produced carbon
steel mechanical tubing.
The investigation revealed that criterion (3) has not been
met.
The investigation revealed that the subject firm did not
import carbon steel mechanical tubing. Furthermore, customers of
the subject firm did not substantially increase imports of carbon
steel mechanical tubing during the relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers of Pacific
Tube Co., Los Angeles, California, are denied eligibility to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of
1974.
Signed in Washington, D. C. this 20th day of August 2001.
