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 August 13, 2020, by the United Steelworkers (USW), Local
7150, on behalf of workers and former workers of Oregon
Metallurgical Corporation, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of
Allegheny Technologies Incorporated, ATI Specialty Alloys and
Components Division, Albany Operations Division, including
workers whose wages are reported under TDY Industries LLC,
Albany, Oregon (Oregon-ATI/Albany). Workers of Oregon-ATI/Albany
are engaged in activities related to the production of titanium
ingot and mill products. The subject worker group does not include
on-site leased workers.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in Oregon-ATI/Albany 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 Oregon-
ATI/Albany sales and/or production have decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because imports of
articles like or directly competitive with the titanium ingot and
mill products produced by Oregon-ATI/Albany have increased during
the relevant period when compared to the representative base
period.
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 Oregon-ATI/Albany.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Oregon Metallurgical
Corporation-ATI/Albany 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 Oregon Metallurgical Corporation, a wholly
owned indirect subsidiary of Allegheny Technologies
Incorporated, ATI Specialty Alloys and Components Division,
Albany Operations Division, including workers whose wages
are reported under TDY Industries LLC, Albany, Oregon, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after August 12, 2019 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 27th day of November 2020.
