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 (B) or (C) of paragraph (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), the 1-year
period preceding the 1-year period described in
paragraph (2).

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 28, 2020, by a state workforce office on behalf of
workers of The Corsi Group, Inc., including workers whose wages
were reported under Corsi Cabinet Company, Inc. and Greenfield
Cabinetry, LLC, Indianapolis, Indiana. The workers' firm is
engaged in activities related to the production of kitchen
cabinetry.
The investigation revealed that on April 17, 2020, the U.S.
International Trade Commission determined, pursuant to the
Tariff Act of 1930, that an industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports of wooden cabinets and
vanities from China, that have been found by the U.S. Department
of Commerce to be sold in the United States at less than fair
value, and to be subsidized by the government of China.
A petition was filed on behalf of workers of The Corsi
Group, Inc., Indianapolis, Indiana. That firm was publicly
identified by name by the U.S. 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). In addition, that determination
was published in the Federal Register on April 17, 2020, which
is within one year of the date of the petition filed
requesting Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Certification.
Lastly, worker separations occurred during the one-year period
preceding the date that the notice was published, and the one-
year period after, within the Federal Register.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of The Corsi Group,
Inc., including workers whose wages were reported under Corsi
Cabinet Company, Inc. and Greenfield Cabinetry, LLC,
Indianapolis, Indiana, engaged in activities related to the
production of kitchen cabinetry, 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 The Corsi Group, Inc., including workers
whose wages were reported under Corsi Cabinet Company,
Inc. and Greenfield Cabinetry, LLC, Indianapolis, Indiana,
who became totally or partially separated from that
employment on or after April 17, 2019, through the date of
the certification and who become totally or partially
separated from that employment from the date of the
certification through April 17, 2021, 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 13th day of July 2020.
