Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance for Workers

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (“Act”), 19 U.S.C.
§ 2273, the Department of Labor (“Department”) herein presents the results of an investigation
regarding certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (“TAA”) for workers.
The investigation was initiated in response to a TAA petition dated October 28, 2020 and
filed on October 29, 2020 by a State Workforce Office, on behalf of former workers of Greenfield
Cabinetry, LLC, a subsidiary of the Corsi Group, Inc., Elkins, West Virginia (hereafter referred to
as the “worker group”). In accordance with 20 C.F.R. 618.110 a worker group is defined as, “…
inclusive of teleworkers and staffed workers.”
The worker group is engaged in activities related to the production of kitchen cabinetry and
are not separately identifiable by product.
The petition alleged that worker separations, or threats thereof, were due to foreign trade
because, “the worker group is subject to ITC injury based on notifications from USDOL; No. 701-
TA-620 and 731-TA-1445 involving wooden cabinets and vanities from China”.
The International Trade Commission (ITC) found that an industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason(s) of of imports of wooden cabinets and vanities from China. The
ITC’s determination(s) was published in the Federal Register on April 17, 2020.
During the course of the investigation, the Department collected information from the
petitioner(s), the workers’ firm, and other relevant sources.
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:
Member of Domestic Industry Criterion
(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));
The Department determines that the member of a domestic industry criterion has been met.

Timely Petition Filing Criterion
(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
The Department determines that the timely filing of a petition criterion has been met.
Employment Criterion
(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 Department determines that the employment criterion has been met.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation, I determine that workers
of Greenfield Cabinetry, LLC, a subsidiary of the Corsi Group, Inc., Elkins, West Virginia, who
are engaged in activities related to the production of kitchen cabinetry meet the worker group
certification criteria under Section 222(e) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(e). In accordance with
Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:
“All workers of Greenfield Cabinetry, LLC, a subsidiary of the Corsi Group, Inc., Elkins,
West Virginia, who became totally or partially separated from that employment on or after
April 17, 2019, 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 17th day of November, 2020
