SIGNAL TRANSFORMER COMPANY
INWOOD, NEW YORK
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 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. It is determined in this case that all of the requirements
have been met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on January 28, 2002, and filed by the company official on
behalf of workers at Signal Transformer Company, Inwood, New York.
The workers produce power transformers.
This investigation has revealed that the subject firm
increased its reliance on imported power transformers while reducing
employment at Inwood, New York and lowering production levels during
the relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles like
or directly competitive with power transformers produced by Signal
Transformer Company, Inwood, New York 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 Signal Transformer Company, Inwood, New York,
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after November 7, 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 28th day of March, 2002.
