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(e) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(e), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) the workers' firm is publicly identified by name by
the International Trade Commission as a member of a
domestic industry in an investigation resulting in--
(A) an affirmative determination of serious injury or
threat thereof under section 202(b)(1);
(B) an affirmative determination of market disruption
or threat thereof under section 421(b)(1); or
(C) an affirmative final determination of material
injury or threat thereof under section
705(b)(1)(A) or 735(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b)(1)(A) and
1673d(b)(1)(A));

(2) the petition is filed during the 1-year period
beginning on the date on which--
(A) a summary of the report submitted to the
President by the International Trade Commission
under section 202(f)(1) with respect to the
affirmative determination described in paragraph
(1)(A) is published in the Federal Register under
section 202(f)(3); or
(B) notice of an affirmative determination described
in subparagraph (1) is published in the Federal
Register; and

(3) the workers have become totally or partially
separated from the workers' firm within--
(A) the 1-year period described in paragraph (2); or
(B) notwithstanding section 223(b)(1), the 1-year
period preceding the 1-year period described in
paragraph (2).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on December 24, 2013 by the Illinois State Workforce
Office on behalf of workers of Elkay Manufacturing Company,
Broadview, Illinois (Elkay). The workers' firm is engaged in
activities related to the production of stainless steel sinks.
The investigation revealed that on April 10, 2013, the
International Trade Commission found that the industry of the
workers is materially injured or threatened with material
injury by reason of imports of drawn stainless steel sinks
from China, covered under the Commission's determination No.
701-TA-489 and 731-TA-1201.
The workers' firm was publicly identified by name by the
International Trade Commission as a member of a domestic
industry in an investigation resulting in a category of
determination that is listed in Section 222(e) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2272(e). That determination was published in the
Federal Register on April 10, 2013, which is within one year of
the date of the petition filed requesting Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) Certification.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Elkay Manufacturing
Company, Broadview, Illinois, engaged in activities related to
the production of stainless steel sinks meet the requirements
of Section 222(e) of the Act. In accordance with Section 223 of
the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Elkay Manufacturing Company, Broadview,
Illinois, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after April 10, 2012, through the date of
the certification and who become totally or partially
separated from that employment from the date of the
certification through April 10, 2014, and all workers in
the group threatened with total or partial separation from
employment on the date of certification through April 10,
2014, 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 19th day of March 2014
