General Dynamics Itronix Corporation; A Subsidiary of General 
Dynamics Corporation, Including Remote Workers Reporting to Sunrise, 
FL; Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration

    On June 22, 2012, the Department of Labor issued a Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration 
applicable to workers and former workers of General Dynamics Itronix 
Corporation, a subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation, Sunrise, 
Florida (subject firm). The workers' firm is engaged in activities 
related to the supply of program management services for rugged laptop 
computers and rugged mobile devices. The worker group includes remote 
workers reporting to Sunrise, Florida.
    Based on information provided during the reconsideration 
investigation, the Department determines that worker separations at the 
subject firm are related to increased imports of articles which are 
produced using services supplied by the subject firm.
    Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number or 
proportion of the workers in General Dynamics Itronix Corporation, 
Sunrise, Florida have become totally or partially separated, or are 
threatened to become totally or partially separated.
    Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales and/or 
production by General Dynamics Itronix Corporation, Sunrise, Florida 
have decreased absolutely.
    Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because company imports of 
articles like or directly competitive with those which are/were 
produced by using the services supplied by workers of General Dynamics 
Itronix Corporation, Sunrise, Florida have increased during the 
relevant period.
    Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because increased 
company imports contributed importantly to the worker group separations 
and sales/production declines at General Dynamics Itronix Corporation, 
Sunrise, Florida.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I determine that workers of General Dynamics Itronix 
Corporation, a subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation, including 
remote workers reporting to, Sunrise, Florida, who are/were engaged in 
employment related to the supply of program management services for 
rugged laptop computers and rugged mobile devices, meet the worker 
group certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 
2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2273, I 
make the following certification:

    All workers of General Dynamics Itronix Corporation, a 
subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation, including remote workers 
reporting to, Sunrise, Florida, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after March 23, 2011, through two 
years from the date of certification, 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 of 
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 16th day of July 2012.
 Del Min Amy Chen,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
