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(e) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(e), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) the workers' firm is publicly identified by name by
the International Trade Commission as a member of a
domestic industry in an investigation resulting in--
(A) an affirmative determination of serious injury
or threat thereof under section 202(b)(1);
(B) an affirmative determination of market
disruption or threat thereof under section
421(b)(1); or
(C) an affirmative final determination of material
injury or threat thereof under section
705(b)(1)(A) or 735(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b)(1)(A) and
1673d(b)(1)(A));

(2) the petition is filed during the 1-year period
beginning on the date on which--
(A) a summary of the report submitted to the
President by the International Trade Commission
under section 202(f)(1) with respect to the
affirmative determination described in paragraph
(1)(A) is published in the Federal Register
under section 202(f)(3); or
(B) notice of an affirmative determination
described in subparagraph (1) is published in
the Federal Register; and

(3) the workers have become totally or partially
separated from the workers' firm within--
(A) the 1-year period described in paragraph (2);
or
(B) notwithstanding section 223(b)(1), the 1-year
period preceding the 1-year period described in
paragraph (2).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 18, 2012 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of Benada Aluminum Products LLC, Sanford, Florida
(Benada Aluminum Products LLC). The workers' firm is engaged
in activities related to the production of open and standard
aluminum extrusions (mill products).
In a notification published in the Federal Register on
May 19, 2011, the International Trade Commission found that an
industry in the United States is materially injured by reason
of imports of certain aluminum extrusions from China other
than finished heat sinks.
Benada Aluminum Products LLC, Sanford, Florida was
publicly identified by name by the International Trade
Commission as a member of a domestic industry in an
investigation resulting in a determination of an industry in
the United States was materially injured by reason of imports
of certain aluminum extrusions from China.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Benada Aluminum
Products LLC, Sanford, Florida, engaged in activities related
to the production of open and standard aluminum extrusions
(mill products), meet the requirements of Section 222(e) of
the Act. In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Benada Aluminum Products LLC, Sanford,
Florida, who became totally or partially separated from
that employment on or after May 19, 2010 through May 19,
2012, 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 28th day of June, 2012
