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 November 22, 2013 on behalf of workers of Cameron
International Corporation, Process & Compression Systems
Division, Ponca City, Oklahoma (subject firm). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
stationary engine components. The workers are not separately
identifiable by product line.
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)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and/or production of stationary engine components by subject
firm have decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because company
imports of articles like or directly competitive with those
produced by Cameron International Corporation have increased
during the relevant period.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased company imports contributed importantly to the
worker group separations and sales/production declines at
subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Cameron International
Corporation, Process & Compression Systems Division, Ponca
City, Oklahoma, who are engaged in activities related to the
production of stationary engine components, 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 Cameron International Corporation, Process
& Compression Systems Division, Ponca City, Oklahoma, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after November 21, 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."
