Amended 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
issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance on February 13, 2013, applicable to
workers of YP Western Directory LLC, San Francisco Division,
Publishing Operations Group, YP Subsidiary Holdings LLC, PY LLC,
YP Holdings LLC, including on-site leased workers from Zero
Chaos, San Francisco, California. The workers are engaged in
activities related to the supply of publishing operations
services. Workers within the Publishing Operations Group are
separately identifiable from other business units within YP
Western Directory LLC, Therefore, the certification is limited
to only those workers within the Publishing Operations Group who
are located at (or report to) San Francisco, California. The
notice was published in the Federal Register on February 25,
2013 (78 FR 12796).
At the request of a company official, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm.
New information shows that Pleasanton, California is a
sister facility of the San Francisco, California location of the
subject firm. Both facilities are engaged in activities related
to the supply of publishing operations services, and have
experienced worker separations during the relevant time period
due to a shift in these services to a foreign country.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification
to include workers of the Pleasanton, California location of YP
Western Directory LLC.


The amended notice applicable to TA-W-82,326 is hereby
issued as follows:
“All workers of YP Western Directory LLC, San Francisco
Division, Publishing Operations Group, YP Subsidiary Holdings
LLC, YP LLC, YP Holdings LLC, including on-site leased workers
from Zero Chaos, San Francisco, California (TA-W-82,326), and
YP Western Directory LLC, San Francisco Division, Publishing
Operations Group, YP Subsidiary Holdings LLC, YP LLC, YP
Holdings LLC, including on-site leased workers from Zero
Chaos, Pleasanton, California (TA-W-82,326A), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
January 8, 2012, through February 13, 2015, 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 22nd day of August 2013.

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;
(2)(B)(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
(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; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have
contributed importantly to the workers’
separation or threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on January 9, 2013 by workers of YP Western Directory LLC,
San Francisco, California Division, Publishing Operations Group, YP
Subsidiary Holdings LLC, YP LLC, YP Holdings LLC, including on-site
leased workers from Zero Chaos, San Francisco, California (YP-
Publishing Operations Group). YP Western Directory LLC, San
Francisco, California Division, is part of YP subsidiary Holdings
LLC, which is part of YP LLC, which is part of YP Holdings LLC.
Workers of YP-Publishing Operations Group are engaged in
employment related to the supply of publishing operations
services. Workers within the Publishing Operations Group are
separately identifiable from other business units within YP
Western Directory LLC. Therefore, the certification is limited to
only those workers within the Publishing Operations Group who are
located at (or report to) San Francisco, California.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in YP-Publishing Operations Group have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened with such
separation.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because YP Western
Directory LLC has acquired from a foreign country the supply of
services like or directly competitive with those supplied by the
subject workers, which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at YP-Publishing Operations Group.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of YP-Publishing Operations
Group, who were engaged in employment related to the supply of
publishing operations services, 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 YP Western Directory LLC, San Francisco
Division, Publishing Operations Group, YP Subsidiary Holdings
LLC, YP LLC, YP Holdings LLC, including on-site leased workers
from Zero Chaos, San Francisco, California, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after January 8,
2012, 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 13th day of February, 2013
