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 October 18, 2010 on behalf of workers of Chrysler
Group, LLC, Trenton Engine Plant, Trenton, Michigan. The
workers produce V6 automotive engines.
Workers of Chrysler Group, LLC, Trenton Engine Plant,
Trenton, Michigan are covered by certification number TA-W-
64,550 that expires on December 16, 2010.
The investigation revealed that workers of Chrysler Group,
LLC, Trenton Engine Plant, Trenton, Michigan, who are engaged
in employment related to production of V6 automotive engines,
meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant number of
the workers are threatened with separation.
Criterion II has been satisfied because the workers' firm
has committed to shift 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 in
production contributed importantly to threatened worker group
separations at Chrysler Group, LLC, Trenton Engine Plant,
Trenton, Michigan.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Chrysler Group, LLC,
Trenton Engine Plant, Trenton, Michigan, who are engaged in
employment related to production of V6 automotive engines, 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 Chrysler Group, LLC, Trenton Engine Plant,
Trenton, Michigan, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after December 17, 2010,
through two years from the date of certification, and all
workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on December 17, 2010 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 2nd day of November, 2010
