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(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
I. The first criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(1) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1)) requires that a significant
number or proportion of the workers in the workers' firm
must have become totally or partially separated or be
threatened with total or partial separation.

II. The second criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(2) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied if either:

(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers' firm to a
foreign country in the production of articles or supply
of services like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers' firm; OR
(i)(II) there has been an acquisition from a foreign
country by the workers' firm of articles/services that
are like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers' firm.

III. The third criterion requires that the shift/acquisition must
have contributed importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation. See Section 222(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)(B)(ii).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on July 2, 2009 by a company official on behalf of workers
of USP Holding Corp. dba US Products, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Nilfisk-Advance Inc., Coeur d'Alene, Idaho (USP Holding
Corp.). The workers are engaged in employment related to
production of carpet cleaning equipment. The worker group
includes on-site leased workers from Aerotek Company,
Integrated Engineering Company, Office Team and Integrated
Personnel Inc.
The investigation revealed that workers of USP Holding, who
are engaged in employment related to carpet cleaning
equipment, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because at least five percent of
the workers have become separated from employment during the
relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because the workers' firm has
shifted to a foreign country the production of an article like
or directly competitive with the article produced by the
workers.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in production
of carpet cleaning equipment to Mexico by USP Holding
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho facility.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of USP Holding Corp. dba
US Products, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nilfisk-Advance Inc.,
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, including on-site leased workers from
Aerotek Company, Integrated Engineering Solutions, Office Team,
and Integrated Personnel Inc., who are engaged in employment
related to production of carpet cleaning equipment, 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 USP Holding Corp. dba US Products, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Nilfisk-Advance Inc., Coeur
d'Alene, Idaho, including on-site leased workers from
Aerotek Company, Integrated Engineering Solutions, Office
Team and Integrated Personnel Inc., who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after July 1,
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 8th day of October, 2009.
