totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or
partially separated;
B. The sales or production, or both, of such firm or subdivision
have decreased absolutely; and
C. Increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with
articles produced by such firm or subdivision have contributed
importantly to such workers' separation or threat of separation and to
the decline in sales or production of such firm or subdivision; or
II. Section (a)(2)(B) both of the following must be satisfied:
A. A significant number or proportion of the workers in such
workers' firm, or an appropriate subdivision of the firm, have become
totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or

the articles is a party to a free trade agreement with the United
States;

the articles to a beneficiary country under the Andean Trade Preference
Act, African Growth and Opportunity Act, or the Caribbean Basin
Economic Recovery Act; or
3. There has been or is likely to be an increase in imports of
articles that are like or directly competitive with articles which are
or were produced by such firm or subdivision.
Also, in order for an affirmative determination to be made and a

as an adversely affected secondary group to be issued, each of the
group eligibility requirements of Section 222(b) of the Act must be

separated;
(2) The workers' firm (or subdivision) is a supplier or downstream
producer to a firm (or subdivision) that employed a group of workers
who received a certification of eligibility to apply for trade
adjustment assistance benefits and such supply or production is related
to the article that was the basis for such certification; and
(3) Either--
(A) The workers' firm is a supplier and the component parts it
supplied for the firm (or subdivision) described in paragraph (2)
accounted for at least 20 percent of the production or sales of the
