FARSIDE FISH CAMP
KODIAK, 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.
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
received on May 19, 2003 and filed by the company on behalf of
workers at Farside Fish Camp, Kodiak, Alaska. The workers
produce fresh salmon.
The investigation revealed that Farside Fish Camp, State of
Alaska Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission Permit # S04K567190,
Kodiak, Alaska, was 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 determine that workers of Farside Fish Camp,
Kodiak, Alaska, qualify as adversely affected secondary workers
under Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. In
accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following
certification:
"All workers of Farside Fish Camp, Kodiak, Alaska who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after May
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 at Washington, D.C., this 23rd day of May 2003.
