FARADYNE MOTORS
A JOINT VENTURE OF ITT INDUSTRIES AND PENTAIR, INCORPORATED
FORMERLY KNOWN AS SUCCESS ENTERPRISES LLC
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM KELLY SERVICES
NEWARK, 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 20, 2007,
applicable to workers of Faradyne Motors, A Joint Venture of ITT
Industries and Pentair, Inc., Newark, New York. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on July 9, 2007 (72 FR 37365).
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are
engaged in the production of motors for pumps. The subject firm
originally named Success Enterprises LLC was renamed Faradyne
Motors due to a corporate decision in 2006. The State agency
reports that some workers wages at the subject firm are being
reported under the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account for
Success Enterprises LLC, Newark, New York.
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 Faradyne Motors who were adversely affected by increased
company imports following a shift in production to China.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,671 is hereby issued
as follows:
"All workers of Faradyne Motors, A Joint Venture of ITT
Industries and Pentair, Inc., formerly known as Success
Enterprises LLC, including on-site leased workers from Kelly
Services, Newark, New York, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after June 11, 2006, through
June 20, 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.
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 24th day of September 2007.

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), as amended, 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)(B) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on June 13, 2007 in response
to a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of
Faradyne Motors, A Joint Venture of ITT Industries and Pentair
Incorporated, Newark, New York. The workers produce motors for
pumps.
The investigation revealed that Faradyne Motors also leased
workers from Kelly Services.
The investigation also revealed that the preponderance of
declines in employment at the subject facility is related to a
shift in production of motors for pumps to China. The investigation
further revealed that the subject firm increased imports of motors
for pumps during the relevant period.
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 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 there was a shift in production from the
workers’ firm or subdivision to China of articles like or directly
competitive with motors for pumps produced by Faradyne Motors, A
Joint Venture of ITT Industries and Pentair Incorporated, Newark,
New York, 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 Faradyne Motors, A Joint Venture of ITT
Industries and Pentair Incorporated, Newark, New York,
including on-site leased workers from Kelly Services, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after June 11, 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.”
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 20th day of June 2007
