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:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers in such
workers' firm have become totally or partially separated, or
are threatened to become totally or partially separated; and

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm have
decreased absolutely; and

(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied by
such firm have increased; and

(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on July 23, 2010 on behalf of workers of MH Technologies,
LLC, Mt. Holly Springs, Pennsylvania. The workers produced
conductor paper used in electrical devices and implants.
The investigation revealed that workers of MH Technologies,
who were engaged in employment related to production of
conductor paper, meet the criteria for certification.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number of workers at have been separated during the
investigative period.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and production of conductor paper by MH Technologies have
decreased absolutely during the relevant period.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the conductor paper
produced by MH Technologies have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
the increased imports contributed importantly to the worker
group separations and sales/production declines at MH
Technologies.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of MH Technologies, LLC,
Mt. Holly Springs, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in employment
related to conductor paper production 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 MH Technologies, LLC, Mt. Holly Springs,
Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after May 19, 2009, 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."
