DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-41,669]
Hankinson International Now Known as SPX, Corporation, Pneumatic
Products Corporation, Washington, PA; Amended Certification Regarding
Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C.
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on August 28, 2002, applicable
to workers of Hankinson International, Washington, Pennsylvania. The
notice was published in the Federal Register on September 10, 2002 (67
FR 57456).
At the request of the United Steelworkers of America, Local 14693,
the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject
firm. The workers are engaged in the production of compressed air
treatment equipment.
New information shows that SPX Corporation purchased Hankinson
Corporation, Washington, Pennsylvania in February, 2003 and is now
known as SPX Corporation, Pneumatic Products Corporation. Workers
separated from employment at the subject firm had their wages reported
under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for SPX
Corporation, Pneumatic Products Corporation.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to
properly reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Hankinson International, Washington, Pennsylvania who were
adversely affected by increased imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-41,669 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Hankinson International, now known as SPX
Corporation, Pneumatic Products Corporation, Washington,
Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after May 24, 2001, through August 28, 2004, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 23rd day of April 2003.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
