DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-50,225]

 
Unitek Electronics, Inc., Portland, OR; Notice of Revised 
Determination on Reopening

    On March 24, 2003, the Department on its own motion reviewed the 
initial determination for workers and former workers of the subject 
firm engaged in the production of solid-state motor speed controls.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
issued on January 29, 2003 because imports did not contribute 
importantly to the worker separations. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on February 24, 2003 (68 FR 8619).
    New information submitted to the Department by the company and 
additional information supplied by a primary customer of the subject 
firm revealed that the customer has increased purchases of imported 
solid-state motor speed controls while reducing purchases from the 
subject firm.

Conclusion

    After careful consideration of the new facts obtained on reopening, 
it is concluded that increased imports of articles like or directly 
competitive with solid-state motor speed controls produced by the 
subject firm contributed importantly to the decline in sales and to the 
total or partial separation of workers of the subject firm. In 
accordance with the provisions of the Trade Act of 1974, I make the 
following revised determination:

    All workers of Unitek Electronics, Inc., Portland, Oregon, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
November 29, 2001 through two years from the date of this 
certification are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 27th day of March, 2003.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
