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 June 24, 2002, and filed by a company official on
behalf of workers at Rosemount Analytical Inc., Process Analytical
Division, Orrville, Ohio. The workers produce process control
instruments used as measuring tools in the gas and oil industries.


The investigation revealed that production and employment
declined during the relevant period.
The investigation further revealed that company imports of
process control instruments used as measuring tools in the gas and
oil industries increased absolutely 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 process control instruments used
as measuring tools in the gas and oil industries produced by
Rosemount Analytical Inc., Process Analytic Division, Orrville,
Ohio, 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 Rosemount Analytical Inc., Process Analytic
Division, Orrville, Ohio, engaged in employment related to the
production process control instruments used as measuring tools
in the gas and oil industries, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after May 27, 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 at Washington, D.C., this 16th day of September, 2002.
