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 March 21, 2013 by a state workforce official on behalf
of workers of Chromalloy Gas Turbine, LLC, Los Angeles
Division, a subsidiary of Sequa Corp., Gardena, California,
(hereafter referred to as "Chromalloy Gas Turbine, LLC" or
"subject firm"). The workers are engaged in activities related
to the supply of repair and overhaul services for turbines.
The workers are not separately identifiable by services
supplied. The worker group does not include on-site leased
workers.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers of Chromalloy Gas Turbine,
LLC have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened with total or partial separation.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has shifted to a foreign country the supply of services
like or directly competitive with the supply of repair and
overhaul services for turbines supplied by the subject workers,
which contributed importantly to worker group separations at
Chromalloy Gas Turbine, LLC.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Chromalloy Gas
Turbine, LLC, Los Angeles Division, a subsidiary of Sequa
Corp., Gardena, California, who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of repair and overhaul services for
turbines, 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 Chromalloy Gas Turbine, LLC, Los Angeles
Division, a subsidiary of Sequa Corp., Gardena,
California, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after March 20, 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."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 8th day of April, 2013
