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 on April 5, 2002, and filed
by a company official on behalf of workers at Cummins Diesel
ReCon, Charleston, South Carolina. The workers produce gas and
diesel remanufactured engines.
The investigation revealed that production and employment
declined during the period of this investigation.
Further findings of the investigation revealed the subject
firm is increasing imports of gas and diesel remanufactured
engines from abroad.




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 gas and diesel remanufactured engines
produced at Cummins Diesel ReCon, Charleston, South Carolina,
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 Cummins Diesel ReCon, Charleston, South
Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after March 13, 2001, 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 August, 2002.
