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, the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of its 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 Trade Adjustment
Assistance, the group eligibility requirements in either paragraph
(a)(2)(A) or (a)(2)(B) of Section 222 of the Trade Act must be met.
It is determined in this case that the requirements of (a)(2)(A) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on December 13, 2002 in
response to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of
workers of Long Manufacturing, Thermal Products Division, a
subsidiary of Dana Corporation, Sheffield, Pennsylvania. The
workers at the subject firm produce stainless steel engine oil
coolers.
The investigation revealed that sales and employment at the
subject firm decreased absolutely from 2000 to 2001 and during the
period of January through November of 2002 when compared to the
same period in 2001.
The investigation further revealed that the subject firm did
not import stainless steel engine oil coolers or shift production
of stainless steel engine oil coolers to a foreign country.
The Department of Labor surveyed the subject firm's major
declining customer regarding its purchases of stainless steel
engine oil coolers. This survey revealed absolute increases in
imports of stainless steel engine oil coolers during the period
under investigation.















Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with stainless steel engine oil
coolers produced at Long Manufacturing, Thermal Products Division,
a subsidiary of Dana Corporation, Sheffield, Pennsylvania,
contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of
workers and to the decline in sales or production and at that firm
or subdivision. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I
make the following certification:
"All workers of Long Manufacturing, Thermal Products Division,
a subsidiary of Dana Corporation, Sheffield, Pennsylvania who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after December 10, 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, as amended."
