Eaton Corporation, Vickers Industrial and Mobile Division, Omaha 
Nebraska, Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration

    By letter of December 12, 2000, the Paper, Allied-Industrial, and 
Chemical & Energy Workers International Union (PACE) Local 5-0171, 
requested administrative reconsideration regarding the Department's 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to the workers of the subject firm.
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
issued on November 20, 2000, based on the finding that imports of 
hydraulic vane and piston pumps, motors and repair parts did not 
contribute importantly to worker separations at the Omaha plant. The 
company transferred some of the Omaha production abroad but imports had 
not occurred. The workers are not separately identifiable by product 
line. The denial notice was published in the Federal Register on 
December 6, 2000 (65 FR 76289).
    To support the request for reconsideration, PACE provided evidence 
to show that imports of vane pump parts have begun. The Department 
contacted a company official which confirmed that imports had arrived, 
and the subject firm will continue to rely on imports.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or 
directly competitive with those produced at Eaton Corporation, Vickers 
Industrial and Mobile Division, Omaha, Nebraska, contributed 
importantly to the declines in sales or production and to the total or 
partial separation of workers at the subject firm. In accordance with 
the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:

    All workers of Eaton Corporation, Vickers Industrial and Mobile 
Division, Omaha, Nebraska, who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after August 7, 1999 through two years from 
the date of this certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 9th day of January, 2001.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
