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 April 3, 2018 by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc., Blanding, Utah
(TA-W-93,696), Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc., Henry
Mountain Tony M. Mine, Ticaboo, Utah (TA-W-93,696A), and
Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc., Canyon Mine, Tusayan,
Arizona (TA-W-93,696B) (Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc.).
The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to the
production of natural uranium concentrate. TA-W-93,696A and TA-
W-93,696B includes on-site leased workers from Price Mine
Services.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the petitioner, workers' firm, and major
declining customer(s) of 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 natural uranium concentrate by Energy
Fuels Resources (USA), Inc. have decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because customer
imports of articles like or directly competitive with the
article produced by Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc. have
increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased customer imports contributed importantly to the
worker group separations and sales/production declines at
Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Energy Fuels
Resources (USA), Inc., Blanding, Utah (TA-W-93,696), Energy
Fuels Resources (USA), Inc., Henry Mountain Tony M. Mine,
including on-site leased workers from Price Mine Services,
Ticaboo, Utah (TA-W-93,696A), and Energy Fuels Resources
(USA), Inc., Canyon Mine, including on-site leased workers from
Price Mine Services, Tusayan, Arizona (TA-W-93,696B), who are
engaged in activities related to the production of natural
uranium concentrate 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 Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc.,
Blanding, Utah (TA-W-93,696), Energy Fuels Resources
(USA), Inc., Henry Mountain Tony M. Mine, including on-
site leased workers from Price Mine Services, Ticaboo, Utah
(TA-W-93,696A), and Energy Fuels Resources (USA), Inc.,
Canyon Mine, including on-site leased workers from Price
Mine Services, Tusayan, Arizona (TA-W-93,696B), who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after
March 22, 2017 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 5th day of June 2018.
