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 August 20, 2001, and filed on behalf of workers at McCord Winn Textron, Manchester, New Hampshire. The workers produced armature and stator motors.
This investigation revealed that sales and employment declined at the subject plant during the relevant periods.
The company increased their imports of armature and stator motors in September 2001 replacing production at the Manchester plant.
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 armature and stator motors produced at McCord Winn Textron, Manchester, New Hampshire, contributed importantly to the decline in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of workers of the subject firm. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of McCord Winn Textron, Manchester, New Hampshire, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after August 20, 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 11th day of December, 2001.
