Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(c) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(c), can be
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
I. a significant number or proportion of the workers in
the workers' firm or an appropriate subdivision of the
firm have become totally or partially separated, or
are threatened to become totally or partially
separated;

II. the workers' firm is a Supplier or Downstream Producer
to a firm that employed a group of workers who
received a certification of eligibility under Section
222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), and such
supply or production is related to the article or
service that was the basis for such certification; and

III. either
(A) the workers' firm is a supplier and the component
parts it supplied to the firm described in paragraph
(2) accounted for at least 20 percent of the
production or sales of the workers' firm; or
(B) a loss of business by the workers' firm with the firm
described in paragraph (2) contributed importantly to
the workers' separation or threat of separation.

Section 222(d) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(d), defines the
term "Supplier" as "a firm that produces and supplies directly
to another firm component parts for articles, or services used
in the production of articles or in the supply of services, as
the case may be, that were the basis for a certification of
eligibility under subsection (a) [of Section 222 of the Act] of
a group of workers employed by such other firm."
The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on June 4, 2009 by a company official on behalf of
workers of Kenco Logistic Services, LLC, Lexington, Kentucky.
The workers are engaged in support services in the
remanufacturing of engines and parts, transmissions, and
hydraulic parts. The worker group includes on-site leased
workers from Remedy Intelligent Staffing and Omnisource
Staffing.
The investigation revealed that workers of Kenco Logistic
Services, LLC who are engaged in employment related to
remanufactured engines and parts, transmissions, and hydraulic
parts meet the criteria as suppliers for secondary worker
certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number or
portion of the workers in the workers' firm have become
totally or partially separated in the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because workers of Kenco
Logistic Services, LLC provided services to a firm that
employed a worker group who is covered by an active
certification which supported the remanufacture of engines and
parts, transmissions, and hydraulic parts.
Criterion III has been met because the services supplied
by Kenco Logistic Services, LLC for a firm that employed a
worker group covered by an active certification and that
accounted for at least 20 percent of the production or sales
of Kenco Logistic Services, LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Kenco Logistic
Services, LLC, including on-site leased workers from Remedy
Intelligent Staffing and Omnisource Staffing, Lexington,
Kentucky, who are engaged in activities related to the
production of remanufactured engines and parts, transmissions,
and hydraulic parts to meet the worker group certification
criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a).
In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I
make the following certification:


"All workers of Kenco Logistic Services, LLC, including
on-site leased workers from Remedy Intelligent Staffing
and Omnisource Staffing, Lexington, Kentucky, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
June 3, 2008, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on the date of
certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 10th day of December, 2009
