In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 USC
2813), as amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification
of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and

March 9, 2005 (70 FR 11705)
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed

New information shows that leased workers of Staff Partners

City, Tennessee location of Nagle Industries.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers of Staff Partners and
Personnel Management, Inc. working at Nagle Industries,

The intent of the Department's certification is to include
all workers employed at Nagle Industries, Cumberland City,
Tennessee who were adversely affected by a shift in production to
Mexico..
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-56,435 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Nagle Industries, including leased
workers of Staff Partners and Personnel Management,
Inc., Cumberland City, Tennessee, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after January

apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of
the Trade Act of 1974, and are also eligible to apply

Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Alternative Trade 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 January 31, 2005, in
response to a petition filed by the International Association of
Machinists Local 1031 on behalf of workers of Nagle Industries,
Cumberland City, Tennessee. The workers produce automotive cable.
The investigation revealed that the subject firm is shifting
production of automotive cable to Mexico as workers separations are
occurring at Cumberland City, Tennessee.
In accordance with Section 246 the Trade Act of 1974 (26 USC
2813), as amended, the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of its investigation regarding certification of
eligibility to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance
(ATAA) for older workers.
In addition, In order for the Department to issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for ATAA, the group
eligibility requirements of Section 246 of the Trade Act must be
met. The Department has determined in this case that the
requirements of Section 246 have been met.
A significant number of workers at the firm are age 50 or
over and possess skills that are not easily transferable.
Competitive conditions within the industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that there is 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, and there has been or is likely to be an increase in
imports of like or directly competitive articles. In accordance
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Nagle Industries, Cumberland City, Tennessee
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after January 28, 2004 through two years from the date of
certification are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also
eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance
under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.”
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 1st day of February 2005.
