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 February 15, 2013 on behalf of workers of LSI
Corporation, Milpitas, California (TA-W-82,468), San Jose,
California (TA-W-82,468A), Colorado Springs, Colorado (TA-W-
82,468B), Fort Collins, Colorado (TA-W-82,468C), Longmont,
Colorado (TA-W-82,468D), Norcross, Georgia (TA-W-82,468E),
Wichita, Kansas (TA-W-82,468F), Waltham, Massachusetts (TA-W-
82,468G), Mendota Heights, Minnesota (TA-W-82,468H),
Allentown, Pennsylvania (TA-W-82,468I), and Austin, Texas (TA-
W-82,468J). The worker group is engaged in activities related
to the production of semiconductors and software that
accelerate storage and networking in datacenters and mobile
networks.
This certification covers workers at two locations in
Milpitas, California: 1501 McCarthy Blvd. and 1621 Barber Ln.
Workers of LSI Corporation, Allentown, Pennsylvania, were
covered under a previous certification for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TA-W-70,961) that expired on January 28, 2012.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
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)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has shifted to a foreign country production of articles
like or directly competitive with the articles produced by the
workers' firm, which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at LSI Corporation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of LSI Corporation, at
the locations listed above, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of semiconductors and software 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 LSI Corporation, Milpitas, California
(TA-W-82,468), LSI Corporation, San Jose, California (TA-
W-82,468A), LSI Corporation, Colorado Springs, Colorado
(TA-W-82,468B), LSI Corporation, Fort Collins, Colorado
(TA-W-82,468C), LSI Corporation, Longmont, Colorado (TA-
W-82,468D), LSI Corporation, Norcross, Georgia (TA-W-
82,468E), LSI Corporation, Wichita, Kansas (TA-W-
82,468F), LSI Corporation, Waltham, Massachusetts (TA-W-
82,468G), LSI Corporation, Mendota Heights, Minnesota
(TA-W-82,468H), LSI Corporation, including on-site leased
workers from Pro Unlimited and Prosero, Inc., Allentown,
Pennsylvania (TA-W-82,468I), and LSI Corporation, Austin,
Texas (TA-W-82,468J), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after February 14, 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 March, 2013.
