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 January 27, 2010 on behalf of workers of NCI Group,
Inc., d/b/a A&S Building Systems, A&S Building Systems
Division, Rocky Mount, North Carolina (hereinafter referred to
as NCI Group, Inc., A&S Building Systems Division). The
workers are engaged in activities related to the production of
pre-engineered metal buildings and components. The worker
group includes on-site leased workers of Daniel Group.
The investigation revealed that workers of NCI Group, Inc.,
A&S Building Systems Division, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of pre-engineered metal buildings
and components, meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant proportion
or number of the workers at NCI Group, Inc., A&S Building
Systems Division have been totally or partially separated, or
threatened with such separation, during the relevant period.
Criterion II has been met because NCI Group, Inc., A&S
Building Systems Division has shifted to a foreign country the
production of articles like or directly competitive with the
articles produced by the workers.

Criterion III has been met because the shift of pre-
engineered metal buildings and components to Mexico by the
parent firm of NCI Group, Inc., A&S Building Systems Division
contributed importantly to worker group separations at the
Rocky Mount, North Carolina facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of NCI Group, Inc.,
d/b/a A&S Building Systems, A&S Building Systems Division,
Rocky Mount, North Carolina, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of pre-engineered metal buildings and
components, 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 NCI Group, Inc., d/b/a A&S Building
Systems, A&S Building Systems Division, including on-site
leased workers of Daniel Group, Rocky Mount, North
Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after January 25, 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 3rd day of August, 2010
