FISHING VESSEL (F/V) BLUE ANGEL
BRISTOL BAY, ALASKA
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 an investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance as a secondarily affected
worker group.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance,
the group eligibility requirements under Section 222(b) must be
met. It has been determined in this case that the requirements of
Section 222(b) are met.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on January 22, 2003 and filed by the company on behalf
of workers at Fishing Vessel (F/V) Blue Angel, Bristol Bay,
Alaska. The workers produced fresh salmon.
The investigation revealed that F/V Blue Angel, Bristol Bay,
Alaska, is an upstream supplier of fresh salmon. The subject firm
lost at least 20 percent of its business with a processor of
salmon, whose workers were certified eligible to apply for trade
adjustment assistance based on increased imports of processed
salmon.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that increases in imports of processed
salmon, contributed importantly to the total or partial separation
of workers at Fishing Vessel (F/V) Blue Angel, Bristol Bay, Alaska
I Indiana, Ketchikan, Alaska.
In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Fishing Vessel (F/V) Blue Angel, Bristol Bay,
Alaska, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after January 20, 2002, 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"
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 4th day of March 2003.
