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 June 25, 2012 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of Logan Industries, Spokane, Washington. The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of cable
assemblies. The worker group includes on-site leased workers of
Aerotek Commercial, Inc. The workers of Logan Industries
(excluding on-site workers of Aerotek Commercial, Inc.) were
under an existing certification through January 25, 2012.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because 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.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and/or production of cable assemblies by the subject firm have
decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because customer
imports of products like or directly competitive with the cable
assemblies by Logan Industries have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased customer imports contributed importantly to the worker
group separations and sales/production declines at Logan
Industries, Spokane, Washington.

Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Logan Industries,
including on-site leased workers of Aerotek Commercial, Inc.,
Spokane, Washington, who are engaged in activities related to the
production of cable assemblies 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 Logan Industries, Spokane, Washington (TA-W-
81,747), who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after January 26, 2012 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; and,





All on-site leased workers of Aerotek Commercial, Inc.,
working on-site at Logan Industries, Spokane, Washington
(TA-W-81,747A), who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after June 14, 2011 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 24th day of October, 2012.
