Ametek, Inc., Measurement and
Calibration Technology Division,
Sellersville, PA; Notice of Revised
Determination on Reconsideration
On June 16, 2008, the Department
issued an Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration applicable to workers
and former workers of the subject firm.
The notice was published in the Federal
Register on June 25, 2008 (73 FR 36119).
The previous investigation initiated
on February 21, 2008, resulted in a
negative determination issued on April
18, 2008. The decision was based on the
finding that the number of workers
separated from the subject did not
constitute a significant number or
proportion of the subject worker group
(at least 5 percent) and there was no
threat of future separations. The denial
notice was published in the Federal
Register on May 2, 2008 (73 FR 24318).
To support the request for
reconsideration, the petitioner supplied
additional information regarding
employment at the subject firm and
indicated that a sufficient number of
employees have been separated from the
subject firm during November 2007.
It was subsequently revealed by the
company official, that the subject firm
separated a significant number of
workers during the relevant period and
there was a threat of future separations.
Upon further investigation it was
determined that Ametek, Inc.,
Measurement and Calibration
Technology Division, Sellersville,
Pennsylvania supplied gauge
component parts, including electrical
cord reels, constant force springs,
mechanical reels, and power springs
that were used in the production of
electronic instrumentation and gauges,
and a loss of business with domestic
manufacturers (whose workers were

Jkt 214001
certified eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance) contributed importantly to
the workers’ separation or threat of
separation. The parts supplied were
related to the articles that were the basis
of certification.
In accordance with Section 246 the
Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as
amended, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of its
investigation regarding certification of
eligibility to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance (ATAA) for older
workers.
In order for the Department to issue
a certification of eligibility to apply for
ATAA, the group eligibility
requirements of Section 246 of the
Trade Act must be met. The Department
has determined in this case that the
requirements of Section 246 have been
met.
A significant number of workers at the
firm are age 50 or over and possess
skills that are not easily transferable.
Competitive conditions within the
industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional
facts obtained on reconsideration, I
determine that workers of Ametek, Inc.,
Measurement and Calibration
Technology Division, Sellersville,
Pennsylvania qualify as adversely
affected secondary workers under
Section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
All workers of Ametek, Inc., Measurement
and Calibration Technology Division,
Sellersville, Pennsylvania, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after February 8, 2007,
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, and are also eligible
to apply for alternative trade adjustment
assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act
of 1974.
Signed in Washington, DC this 30th day of
July 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade
Adjustment Assistance.
