Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended (19 USC 2273), 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 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)(B) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on May 7, 2003, in response to
a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of
Nitrous Oxide Systems, Inc., div. of Holley Performance Products,
Bowling Green, Kentucky. The workers produce automotive
components.
The investigation revealed that all production of Nitrous
Oxide Systems, Inc. in Bowling Green is being shifted to Mexico in
the relevant period.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I conclude that there was a shift in production from
the workers firm or subdivision to Mexico of articles that are like
or directly competitive with those produced by the subject firm or
subdivision. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make
the following certification:
"All workers of Nitrous Oxide Systems, Inc., div. of Holley
Performance Products, Bowling Green, Kentucky who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
April 15, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 13th day of May 2003
