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. (Set forth in 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 January 13, 2010 by a State workforce official on
behalf of workers of Pacific Coast Industries, a subsidiary of
Sekiso Corporation, Tracy, California (Pacific Coast
Industries). The workers are engaged in activities related to
the production of injection molded and asphalt sheet products,
and brake and fuel tubes. The workers are not separately
identifiable by product. The worker group also includes on-site
leased workers from Adecco and Premier Staffing.
The investigation revealed that workers of Pacific Coast
Industries who are engaged in activities related to the
production of injection molded and asphalt sheet products, and
brake and fuel tubes meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
of the workers has been separated during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been satisfied because there has been a
shift in production of injection molded and asphalt sheet
products, and brake and fuel tubes by Pacific Coast Industries
to Canada, Mexico and Japan.
Criterion III has been met because the shift in production
of injection molded and asphalt sheet products, and brake and
fuel tubes by Pacific Coast Industries to Canada, Mexico and
Japan contributed importantly to worker group separations at
Pacific Coast Industries.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Pacific Coast
Industries, a subsidiary of Sekiso Corporation, including on-
site leased workers from Adecco and Premier Staffing, Dallas,
Texas, who are engaged in employment related to production of
injection molded and asphalt sheet products, and brake and fuel
tubes, 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 Pacific Coast Industries, a subsidiary of
Sekiso Corporation, including on-site leased workers from
Adecco and Premier Staffing, Dallas, Texas, who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
January 12, 2009, through two years from the date of
certification, and all workers in the group threatened with
total or partial separation from employment on 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 25th day of March, 2010
