MCKINNEY, TEXAS

Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on July 15,
2003, applicable to workers of Dynamco, Roper Pump Company,
McKinney, Texas. The notice will be published soon in the
Federal Register.
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
were engaged in the production of pneumatic valves and
components.
New information shows that Roper Industries, Inc. is the
parent firm of Dynamco, Inc. Workers separated from employment
at the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate
unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Roper Industries,
Inc.


Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to
properly reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers of Dynamco, Inc., Roper Pump Company, Roper
Industries, Inc., McKinney, Texas who were adversely affected by
increased imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-52,025 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Dynamco, Inc., Roper Pump Company,
Roper Industries, Inc., McKinney, Texas, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or
after June 11, 2002, through July 15, 2005, 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 July 2003.

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 in response to a petition
received on June 12, 2003 and filed by a company official on behalf
of workers at Dynamco, Roper Pump Company, McKinney, Texas. The
workers were engaged in the production of pneumatic valves and
components.
The decline in employment at the subject plant is related to a
shift in plant production to a country (Mexico) that is a party to
a free trade agreement with the United States.



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 Dynamco, Roper Pump Company, McKinney, Texas,
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after June 11, 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 in Washington, D.C. this 15th day of July 2003
