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 on July 2, 2001 in response to a petition filed by workers on behalf of all workers at Tyco Electronics, Fiber Optics Division, Menlo Park, California. The workers produce fiber optic passive product modules.
A petition for the NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance has been filed on behalf of workers at the subject plant (NAFTA-5008).
This investigation revealed that production and employment at the subject firm decreased in the period of January to April 2001 as compared with the same period of 2000.
The investigation also revealed that company imports of fiber optic passive product modules increased in the relevant time 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 fiber optic passive product modules produced at Tyco Electronics, Fiber Optics Division, Menlo Park, California, 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 Tyco Electronics, Fiber Optics Division, Menlo Park, California, engaged in employment related to the production of fiber optic passive product modules, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after June 10, 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 12th day of October, 2001.
