on-site leased workers from
AccountTemps, Aerotek, Phillips
Staffing, Hagemeyer and ATS, Inc.,
Summerville, South Carolina. The
workers are engaged in activities related
to remanufactured automotive and
hydraulic parts. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on
November 21, 2013 (78 FR 69882).
At the request of the State, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. New
information from the company shows
that workers leased from Robert Half/
AccounTemps were employed on-site at
the Summerville, South Carolina
location of Caterpillar Reman
Powertrain Services, Inc., a subsidiary
of Caterpillar, Inc. The Department has
determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of
Caterpillar Reman Powertrain Services,
Inc., a subsidiary of Caterpillar, Inc. to
be considered leased workers.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers of
the subject firm who were adversely
affected by a shift in the production of
remanufactured automotive and
hydraulic parts to a foreign country.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased
from Robert Half/AccounTemps
working on-site at the Summerville,
South Carolina location of the subject
firm.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–83,094 is hereby issued as
follows:

Determinations Terminating Investigations of Petitions for Worker

After notice of the petitions was published in the Federal Register
and on the Department's Web site, as required by Section 221 of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated investigations of these
petitions.
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued

The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
in cases where these petitions were not filed in accordance with the
requirements of 29 CFR 90.11. Every petition filed by workers must be
signed by at least three individuals of the petitioning worker group.
Petitioners separated more than one year prior to the date of the
petition cannot be covered under a certification of a petition under
Section 223(b), and therefore, may not be part of a petitioning worker
group. For one or more of these reasons, these petitions were deemed
invalid.

83,352............... Abt Associates, Inc................ Bethesda, MD........
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioning groups of workers are covered by active
certifications. Consequently, further investigation in these cases
would serve no purpose since the petitioning group of workers cannot be
covered by more than one certification at a time.
