sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
In accordance with Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended (‘‘Act’’),
19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor
issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on June 3, 2014, applicable
to workers and former workers of
General Electric Company,
Transportation Division, including onsite leased workers from Adecco, Erie,
Pennsylvania. On January 28, 2015, the
Department issued an amended
certification to include on-site leased
workers from Yoh Services LLC.
At the request of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of
the subject firm.
The company reports that workers
leased from CH2MHill and GGS
Information Services were on-site at the
Erie, Pennsylvania location of General
Electric Company, Transportation

determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the
subject firm to be considered leased
workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased
from CH2MHill and GGS Information
Services working on-site at the Erie,
Pennsylvania location of General
Electric Company, Transportation
Division.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–83,328 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of General Electric Company,
Transportation Division, including on-site
leased workers from Adecco, Yoh Services
LLC, CH2MHill, and GGS Information
Services, Erie, Pennsylvania, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after December 20, 2012
through June 3, 2016, 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

Determination After Statutory
Reconsideration
As required by the Trade Adjustment
Assistance Reauthorization Act of 2015
(TAARA 2015), which was enacted as
Title IV of the Trade Preferences
Extension Act of 2015, Public Law 114–
27, section 405(a)(1)(A), the
investigation into this petition was
reopened for a reconsideration
investigation to apply the requirements
for worker group eligibility under
chapter 2 of title II of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended by the TAARA 2015,
to the facts of this petition (statutory
reconsideration).
The initial investigation, initiated
June 12, 2014, resulted in a negative
determination, issued on September 30,
2014, that was based on worker
separations not being attributable to
increased imports or a shift in
production. A complaint was filed with
the United States Court of International
Trade (USCIT) on November 28, 2014
(No. 14–00314); however, a joint
dismissal of the case was filed on July
20, 2015. During the Remand
investigation, the worker group was
clarified to be GE Industrial Solutions
Service Engineering Organization,
Atlanta, Georgia (hereafter referred to as
‘‘GE Industrial Solutions Service
Engineering Organization’’). The
workers’ firm is engaged in activities
related to the supply of designing,
testing, documenting, and engineering
services.

Determinations Terminating Investigations of Petitions for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
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
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.
