DELPHI CORPORATION
POWERTRAIN OPERATIONS
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
TRISON BUSINESS SOLUTIONS, INC. AND BARTECH
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK

Amended 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 (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
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on June 8, 2007,
applicable to workers of Delphi Corporation, Powertrain
Operations, Rochester, New York. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on June 22, 2007 (72 FR 34482).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
are engaged in the production of fuel systems and emission
components; specifically cruse control housings, integrated air
fuel modules, canisters, linear exhaust gas recyclers throttle
bodies and pressure regulators.


New information shows that workers leased from Trison
Business Solutions, Inc. and Bartech were employed on-site at the
Rochester, New York location of Delphi Corporation, Powertrain
Operations. The Department has determined that these workers
were sufficiently under the control of the subject firm to be
considered leased workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers from Trison Business
Solutions, Inc. and Bartech working on-site at the Powertrain
Operation, Rochester, New York location of the subject firm.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,409 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Delphi Corporation, Powertrain
Operations, including on-site leased workers from
Trison Business Solutions, Inc. and Bartech, Rochester,
New York, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after April 24, 2006, through
June 8, 2009, 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.”

DELPHI CORPORATION
POWERTRAIN OPERATIONS
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK

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 (19
USC 2273), the Department of Labor herein presents the results of
its 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) (A)
of Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on May 1, 2007, in response to
a petition filed by the International Union, United Automobile,
Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America: Local 1097
on behalf of workers at Delphi Corporation, Powertrain Operations,
Rochester, New York. The workers produce fuel systems and emission
components; specifically cruise control housings, integrated air
fuel modules, canisters, linear exhaust gas recyclers, throttle
bodies, and pressure regulators.
The investigation revealed that from January to April 2007
there was a decline in employment and sales at the subject firm as
compared to the same time period the previous year.
The Department of Labor surveyed the subject firm’s major
declining customer regarding its purchases of cruise control
housings, integrated air fuel modules, canisters, linear exhaust
gas recyclers, throttle bodies, and pressure regulators in 2005 and
2006 and January through April 2007. These surveys revealed
increased imports of linear exhaust gas recyclers and throttle
bodies during the period under investigation.
In addition, 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 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 do not possess skills that are easily transferable. Competitive
conditions within the industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with fuel systems and emission
components, specifically linear exhaust gas recyclers and throttle
bodies, produced by Delphi Corporation, Powertrain Operations,
Rochester, New York, contributed importantly to the decline in
employment and to the decline in sales or production at that firm
or subdivision. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I
make the following certification:
“All workers of Delphi Corporation, Powertrain Operations,
Rochester, New York, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after April 24, 2006, 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."
