CON AGRA FLOUR MILLING PLANT
NORTH KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI
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 subdivision have decreased absolutely; and
(3) that increases of imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles produced by the firm or appropriate subdivision have contributed importantly to the separations, or threat thereof, and to the absolute decline in sales or production.
The investigation was initiated on August 13, 2001 in response to a petition filed on behalf of workers at Con Agra Flour Milling Plant in North Kansas City, Missouri. The workers are engaged in the production of milled flour.
The investigation revealed that criterion (3) was not met.
U.S. imports of flour, relative to U.S. production, are negligible during the relevant period. All production at North Kansas City, Missouri was transferred to other plants, located domestically.
Currently, the workers are under an existing investigation for NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance. The identifying number is NAFTA-5155.
Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers of Con Agra Flour Milling Plant in North Kansas City, Missouri are denied eligibility 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.
