Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance for Workers

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended ("the 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 April 21, 2021 and
filed on April 22, 2021 by a State Workforce Office, on behalf of workers and former workers of
Bright Wood Corporation, Redmond Operations, Redmond, Oregon (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 supply of pre-production services
such preparation and machining services and are not separately identifiable by service.

The petition alleged that worker separations, or threats thereof, were due to the disruption
of operations related to "the production of lineal wood mouldings, door and window components"
at a firm that employed a worker group eligible to apply for TAA.

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(b) of the Act,
19 U.S.C. § 2272(b), are satisfied if the following criteria are met:

Employment Criterion

(1) A significant number or proportion of the workers in the workers' firm or an appropriate
subdivision of the firm have become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
20 C.F.R. 618.225(d)(1)(ii) states that an "Analysis of separation data must generally
consist of a: "(A) Comparison of employment on the petition date to employment on the date that is
1 year prior to the petition date; (B) Review of employment activity during the 1-year period prior
to the petition date; and (C) Review of evidence provided by the workers' firm regarding actual
and threatened separations that occur, or are scheduled to occur, after the petition date."

The Department determines that the employment criterion has been met.

Supplier/Downstream Producer Criterion

(2) the workers' firm is a supplier or downstream producer to a firm that employed a group
of workers who received a certification of eligibility under subsection (a), and such supply
or production is related to the article or service that was the basis for such certification
(as defined in subsection (c) (3)and (4)); and
Section 222(c)(4) of the Trade Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(c), defines the term "Supplier" to
mean "a firm that produces and supplies directly to another firm component parts for articles, or
services, used in the production of articles or in the supply of services, as the case may be, that
were the basis for a certification of eligibility under subsection (a) of a group of workers employed
by such other firm."

The Department determines that the Supplier criterion has been met.

Contributed Importantly Criterion

(3) either
(A) the workers firm is a supplier and the component parts it supplied to the firm
described in paragraph (2) accounted for at least 20 percent of the production or
sales of the workers' firm; or
(B) a loss of business by the workers' firm with the firm described in paragraph
(2) contributed importantly to the workers' separation or threat of separation
determined under paragraph (I).
20 C.F.R. 618.225(d)(5) states that "the component parts supplied... represented at least
20 percent of the supplier's production or sales during the 1-year period prior to the petition date,
or loss of business with the firm..., during the 1-year period prior to the petition date, contributed
importantly to separations or threat of separation at the workers' firm." Sec. 222(c) of the Trade
Act and 20 C.F.R. 618.110 defines contributed importantly as, "a cause that is important but not
necessarily more important than any other cause."

The Department determines that the contributed importantly criterion has been met.
Conclusion

After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation, I determine that workers of
Bright Wood Corporation, Redmond Operations, Redmond, Oregon, who are engaged in activities
related to the supply of pre-production services such preparation and machining services meet
the worker group certification criteria under Section 222(b) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(b). In
accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:

"All workers of Bright Wood Corporation, Redmond Operations, Redmond, Oregon, who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after April 21, 2020 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 12th day of August, 2021.

CULVER, OREGON
Negative Determination 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 April 21, 2021 and
filed on April 22, 2021 by a State Workforce Office, on behalf of workers and former workers of
Bright Wood Corporation, Culver Operations, Culver, Oregon (hereafter referred to as a "group
of workers"). In accordance with 20 C.F.R. 618 a group of workers is defined as, ""¦inclusive of
teleworkers and staffed workers."

The group of workers is engaged in activities related to the supply of pre-production
services such as preparation and machining services and are not separately identifiable by service.

The petition alleged that worker separations, or threats thereof, were due to the disruption
of operations related to "the production of lineal wood mouldings, door and window components"
at a firm that employed a worker group eligible to apply for TAA.

During the course of the investigation, the Department collected information from the
petitioner(s), the workers' firm, and other relevant sources.

Workers of a firm may be eligible for TAA if they satisfy the criteria of subsection (a), (b)
or (e) of Section 222 of the Trade Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), (b) and (e).

For the Department to issue a certification for workers under Section 222(a) of the Trade
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), the following criteria must be met:

Employment Criterion

(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.
20 C.F.R. 618.225(a)(2)(i)(B) states that an "analysis of separation data must generally
consist of a: (1) Comparison of employment on the petition date to employment on the date that is

1 year prior to the petition date; (2) Review of employment activity during the 1-year period prior
to the petition date; and (3) Review of evidence provided by the workers' firm regarding actual
and threatened separations that occur, or are scheduled to occur, after the petition date."

The Department determines that the employment criterion has not been met. The
investigation revealed no separations (total or partial) or threats of such separations during the one-
year period prior to the petition date.

Decreased Sales or Production Criterion

(2)(A)(i) The sales or production, or both, of such firm have decreased absolutely.

The Department did not make a determination on whether the sales or production criterion
was met because the employment criterion was not met.

Increased Imports Criterion
(2)(A)(ii)(I) Imports of articles or services like or directly competitive with articles
produced or services supplied by such firm have increased;
(II)(aa) imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles into which one

directly using services supplied by such firm, have increased;

(III) imports of articles directly incorporating one or more component parts produced
outside the United States that are like or directly competitive with imports of articles
incorporating one or more component parts produced by such firm have increased.
The Department did not make a determination on whether the increased imports criterion
was met because no finding regarding the decreased sales or production criterion was made.

Contributed Importantly Criterion
(2)(A)(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 Department did not make a determination on whether the contributed importantly
criterion was met because no finding regarding the increased imports criterion was made.

Shift/Acquisition Criterion

(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers' firm to a foreign country in the production
of articles or the supply of services like or directly competitive with articles which
are produced or services which are supplied by such firm; or

(II) such workers' firm has acquired from a foreign country articles or services that
are like or directly competitive with articles which are produced or services which
are supplied by such firm;
The Department did not make a determination on whether the shift/acquisition criterion
was met because the employment criterion was not met.

Contributed Importantly Criterion

(ii) the shift described in clause (i)(I) or the acquisition of articles or services described
in clause (i)(II) contributed importantly to such workers' separation or threat of
separation.
The Department did not make a determination on whether the contributed importantly
criterion was met because no finding regarding the shift/acquisition criterion was made.

For the Department to issue a certification for workers under Section 222(b) of the Trade

Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(b), the following criteria must be met:

Employment Criterion

(1) A significant number or proportion of the workers in the workers' firm or an appropriate
subdivision of the firm have become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.

1 year prior to the petition date; (2) Review of employment activity during the 1-year period prior
to the petition date; and (3) Review of evidence provided by the workers' firm regarding actual
and threatened separations that occur, or are scheduled to occur, after the petition date."

The Department determines that the employment criterion has not been met. The
investigation revealed no separations (total or partial) or threats of such separations during the one-
year period prior to the petition date.

Supplier/Downstream Producer Criterion

(2) the workers' firm is a supplier or downstream producer to a firm that employed a group
of workers who received a certification of eligibility under subsection (a), and such supply
or production is related to the article or service that was the basis for such certification
(as defined in subsection (c) (3)and (4)); and
The Department did not make a determination on whether the supplier/downstream
producer criterion was met because the employment criterion was not met.

20% or Contributed Importantly Criterion

(3) either
(A) the workers firm is a supplier and the component parts it supplied to the firm described
in paragraph (2) accounted for at least 20 percent of the production or sales of the
workers' firm; or
(B) a loss of business by the workers' firm with the firm described in paragraph (2)
contributed importantly to the workers' separation or threat of separation determined
under paragraph (I).
The Department did not make a determination on whether the 20% or contributed
importantly criterion was met because no finding regarding the supplier/downstream producer
criterion was made.

For the Department to issue a certification for workers under Section 222(e) of the Act, 19

U.S.C. § 2272(e), the following criteria must be 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);

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 not been
met. Although the workers' firm was named in an ITC determination, this location was not named
in that determination.

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 did not make a determination on whether the timely petition filing criterion
was met because the member of domestic industry criterion was not 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 did not make a determination on whether the employment criterion was
met because no finding regarding the timely petition filing criterion was made.

Conclusion

After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation, I determine that the
requirements of Section 222 of the Trade Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272, have not been met and, therefore,
deny the petition for group eligibility of Bright Wood Corporation, Culver Operations, Culver,
Oregon, who are engaged in activities related to the supply of pre-production services such as
preparation and machining services to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance for workers, in
accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273.
