Innovion Corporation, Gresham, OR;
Notice of Negative Determination on
Reconsideration
On March 31, 2010, the Department of
Labor issued an Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of Innovion Corporation,
Gresham, Oregon (subject firm). The
notice was published in the Federal
Register on April 19, 2010 (75 FR
20382). The workers supply ion
implantation services for firms in the
semiconductor industry.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that there was no shift to/
acquisition from a foreign country by
the workers’ firm of services like or
directly competitive with the ion
implantation services supplied by the
subject firm and no increased import by
either the subject firm or its major
declining customers of services like or
directly competitive with the ion
implantation services supplied by the
subject firm [Section 222(a)]. Further,
the workers are not eligible to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) as
adversely affected secondary workers
[Section 222(c)] or workers of a firm
identified by the International Trade
Commission as a member of a domestic
industry injured under a provision of
the Tariff Act of 1930 [Section 222(f)].
The initial investigation concluded
that worker separations were
attributable to a customer’s decision to
perform ion implantation services inhouse instead of using the subject firm.

During the reconsideration
investigation, the Department sought
clarification from the subject firm’s
headquarters and conducted an
expanded customer survey of the
subject firm’s major declining
customers, including those identified in
the request for reconsideration.
Information provided during the
reconsideration investigation confirmed
no shift to/acquisition from another
country by the subject firm in the
supply of ion implantation services, and
no increased imports of ion
implantation services, or like or directly
competitive services, by the subject firm
during the relevant period.
The customer survey conducted
during the reconsideration investigation
showed that, during the relevant time
period, the three largest declining
customers of the subject firm did not
import services like or directly
competitive with the ion implantation
services provided by the subject
workers.
Together, the surveyed customers
accounted for 92 percent of subject firm
sales in 2007, 89 percent of subject firm
sales in 2008, and 84 percent of subject
firm sales during the first four months
of 2009. Those customers also
accounted for 109 percent of the sales
decline of the subject firm from 2007 to
2008 and 97 percent of the subject firm’s
sales decline during the first four
months of 2009 as compared with the
same period of 2009.
The assertion that the subject firm
should be certified as a result of the
certification of customer LSI Logic
(TA–W–55,958; certified on November
3, 2003) was not investigated on
reconsideration because a shift to a
foreign country by a customer cannot be
a basis of certification absent under
Section 222(a), which requires that there
has been a shift to a foreign country by
the subject firm. Further, the
certification of the Chandler, Arizona
facility (TA–W–71,648) cannot be the
basis of certification of workers of the
Gresham, Oregon facility as adversely
affected secondary workers because the
certification of the Chandler, Arizona
facility was based on the satisfaction of
Section 222(c) and Section 222(c)
requires that the primary firm be
certified under Section 222(a).
Conclusion
After reconsideration, I affirm the
original notice of negative
determination of eligibility to apply for
worker adjustment assistance for
workers and former workers of Innovion
Corporation, Gresham, Oregon.

Sypris Technologies, Sypris Solutions
Division, Kenton, OH; Notice of
Revised Determination on
Reconsideration
mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES
On October 7, 2010, the Department
of Labor issued a Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration applicable to the
request for administrative
reconsideration filed by the United Steel
Workers, Local 1–109, on behalf of
workers and former workers of Sypris
Technologies, Sypris Solutions
Division, Kenton, Ohio (subject firm).
The Department’s Notice was published
in the Federal Register on October 25,
2010 (75 FR 65514).
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination that was based
on the findings that increased imports
did not contribute importantly to
worker separations at the subject firm
and no shift in production to a foreign
country occurred.
During the reconsideration
investigation, the Department
conducted an expanded survey of the
subject firm’s major declining customers
to supplement the information gathered
during the initial investigation. The
survey revealed increased customer
reliance on imported trailer axle beams
and that the increased imports had
contributed importantly to worker
separations at the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional
facts obtained during the
reconsideration investigation, I
determine that workers of Sypris
Technologies, Sypris Solutions
Division, Kenton, Ohio, who are
engaged in employment related to the
production of trailer axle beams, 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 Sypris Technologies,
Sypris Solutions Division, Kenton, Ohio,
who became totally or partially separated
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:57 Nov 26, 2010
from employment on or after May 18, 2008,
through two years from the date of this
certification, and all workers in the group
threatened with total or partial separation
from employment on 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.’’
