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
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:
(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 July 15, 2002 in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers at Nextec Applications,
Inc., Vista, California. The workers are engaged in the production
of encapsulated fabric.
The investigation revealed that criterion (3) has not been
met.
The investigation revealed that the subject firm did not
import encapsulated fabric during the relevant period. Moreover,
the investigation revealed that no like or directly competitive
product is manufactured abroad.
Conclusion
After careful review, I determine that all workers at Nextec
Applications, Inc., Vista, California engaged in employment related
to the production of encapsulated fabric, are denied eligibility to
apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act
of 1974.
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 10th day of September, 2002.
