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 July 7, 2016 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Broken
Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988) and PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of
PACCAR, Inc., Okmulgee, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988A). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the production of
winch, hoist and drive systems and components for use in
offshore cranes, utility trucks, mobile cranes, oil field
service rigs.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioner.
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 winch, hoist, and drive systems and
components for use in offshore cranes, utility trucks, mobile
cranes, oil field service rigs by PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of
PACCAR, Inc., Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988) and PACCAR
Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Okmulgee, Oklahoma (TA-W-
91,988A) have decreased.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the winch, hoist
and/or drive systems and components for use in offshore cranes,
utility trucks, mobile cranes, oil field service rigs by PACCAR
Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-
W-91,988) and PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc.,
Okmulgee, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988A) have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased imports contributed importantly to the worker group
separations and sales/production declines at PACCAR Winch, a
subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988)
and PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Okmulgee,
Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988A).
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of PACCAR Winch, a
subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988)
and PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Okmulgee,
Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988A), who are engaged in activities related
to the production of winch, hoist and drive systems and
components for use in offshore cranes, utility trucks, mobile
cranes, oil field service rigs 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 PACCAR Winch, a subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc.,
Broken Arrow, Oklahoma (TA-W-91,988) and PACCAR Winch, a
subsidiary of PACCAR, Inc., Okmulgee, Oklahoma (TA-W-
91,988A), who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 6, 2015 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 6th day of October 2016.
