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 October 18, 2013 jointly by a company official and an
American Job Center on behalf of workers of Dallco Industries,
Inc., York, Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144), and Dallco Industries,
Inc., Rockhill Furnace, Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144A). The
worker's firm is engaged in activities related to the production
of basket liners and other sewn goods.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the firm's largest
customer.
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 or
production of basket liners and other sewn goods by Dallco
Industries, Inc. have decreased.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the article
produced by Dallco Industries, Inc., have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased imports contributed importantly to the worker group
separations and sales declines at Dallco Industries, Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Dallco Industries,
Inc., York, Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144), and Dallco Industries,
Inc., Rockhill Furnace, Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144A), who are
engaged in activities related to production of basket liners and
other sewn goods 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 Dallco Industries, Inc., York,
Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144) and Dallco Industries, Inc.,
Rockhill Furnace, Pennsylvania (TA-W-83,144A) who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
October 1, 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 31st day of January, 2014.
