CHRYSLER LLC
ST. LOUIS SOUTH ASSEMBLY DIVISION
INCLUDING ON-SITE LEASED WORKERS FROM
HAAS TCM, INC., ROBINSON SOLUTIONS, CORRIGAN COMPANY,
AND MURPHY COMPANY
FENTON, MISSOURI

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 December 14, 2007,
applicable to workers of Chrysler LLC, St. Louis South Assembly
Division, Fenton, Missouri. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on December 31, 2007 (72 FR 74343). The
certification was amended on November 18, 2008 to include on-site
leased workers. The notice was published in the Federal Register
on December 1, 2008 (73 FR 72848).
At the request of the petitioner, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
assemble Chrysler Town and Country mini-van, and the Dodge Grand
Caravan mini-van.
New information shows that workers leased from Corrigan
Company and Murphy Company were employed on-site by the Fenton,
Missouri location of Chrysler LLC, St. Louis South Assembly
Division. The Department has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of and in support of Chrysler LLC,
St. Louis South Assembly Division to be considered leased
workers.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased from Corrigan Company and
Murphy Company working on-site at the Fenton, Missouri location
of the subject firm.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers employed at Chrysler LLC, St. Louis South Assembly
Division, Fenton, Missouri who were adversely affected by
increased imports of Chrysler Town and Country mini-van and the
Dodge Grand Caravan mini-van.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,438 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Chrysler LLC, St. Louis South Assembly
Division, including on-site leased workers from HAAS
TCM, Inc., Robinson Solutions, Corrigan Company and
Murphy Company, Fenton, Missouri, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after
November 7, 2006, through December 14, 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.”

FENTON, MISSOURI

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)(A) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on November 9, 2007, in
response to a petition filed by a United Auto Workers union
official on behalf of workers of Chrysler, LLC., St. Louis South
Assembly Division, Fenton, Missouri. The workers assemble the
Chrysler Town and Country mini-van, and the Dodge Grand Caravan
mini-van.
The investigation revealed that employment and production
declined from 2005 to 2006, and also declined in January through
October 2007 compared with the same period in 2006.
The Department of Labor conducted an analysis of the United
States market share of vehicles like or directly competitive with
the vehicles produced at the South St. Louis Assembly Plant. The
investigation determined that imports of such vehicles increased
their share of the U.S. market from 2005 to 2006 and in January
through October 2007 compared with the same period in 2006, while
Chrysler mini-van Town and Country, and Dodge mini-van Grand
Caravan decreased their share of the U.S. market during the same
comparative periods.
Sales of imported like or directly competitive vehicles
increased slightly in 2006. Although sales of like imported
vehicles decreased slightly in the partial year 2007 period, sales
of like vehicles produced at the subject firm experienced much
greater declines in the same period, showing an increased consumer
reliance on vehicles produced abroad.
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.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation,
I determine that increases of imports of articles like or directly
competitive with the vehicles produced at the subject firm
contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of workers
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 Chrysler, LLC., St. Louis South Assembly
Division, Fenton, Missouri who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 7, 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.”
