their components abroad or increased 

imports of those articles during the 

relevant period. 

Information provided by the subject 

firm revealed that the only articles 

produced during the relevant period 

were panels, trim and components, and 

secondaries. AR 183, 194–195. As such, 

the Department focused its remand 

investigation on those articles produced 

at the subject firm during the relevant 

period. AR 195–201. 

According to the subject firm, all trim 

and component, secondaries, and panel 

production at the subject facility had 

ceased by April 2005 and had shifted to 

a newly built facility in Jackson, 

Tennessee. As anticipated by the subject 

firm (AR 41–42), the production shift 

began in February 2005 and finished in 

May 2005. AR 184, 195. Information 

provided by the subject firm revealed no 

imports of panels (AR 186), trim and 

components (AR 187), or secondaries 

(AR 188). The previously conducted 

customer survey covered the 

appropriate products and revealed no 

increased imports of any products 

produced by the subject firm. AR 53–56, 

67. 

In response to the plaintiff’s assertion 

that production had shifted to Mexico, 

India and China, the company official 

agreed that a representative of the 

Mexico plant had visited the subject 

firm. However, the reason for that visit 

was related to securing replacement and 

updated equipment for truss purlin 

production in Mexico (an article not 

produced at the subject firm during the 

relevant period). AR 195. While some 

production of component parts of these 

articles did shift to Asia (China), that 

shift occurred in 2003, which is prior to 

the relevant period for this petition. 

Further, those components were not 

made during the relevant period at the 

subject firm. AR 184, 195. 

Because the remand investigation 

revealed no imports of articles like or 

directly competitive with panels, trim 

and components, secondaries produced 

by the workers of the subject firm by the 

subject firm or its customers during the 

relevant period and no shifts of 

production of those articles abroad 

during the relevant period, the statutory 

requirements of neither Section 

222(a)(1) and (2)(a) nor Section 222(a)(1) 

and (2)(B) of the Trade Act or 1974, as 

amended, were met, and the Department 

cannot certify the subject workers as 

eligible to apply for TAA. Further, since 

the workers are not eligible to apply for 

TAA, the workers cannot be found 

eligible to apply for ATAA under 

Section 246(a)(3)(B)(i) of that law. 

Conclusion 

As the result of the findings of the 

investigation on remand, I affirm the 

negative determination of eligibility to 

apply for adjustment assistance for 

workers and former workers of Butler 

Manufacturing Company, Subsidiary of 

BlueScope Steel, LTD, Buildings

B. The sales or production, or both, of 

such firm or subdivision have decreased 

absolutely; and 

C. Increased imports of articles like or

or 

II. Section (a)(2)(B) both of the 

following must be satisfied:

satisfied: 

1. The country to which the workers’

firm has shifted production of the 

articles is a party to a free trade 

agreement with the United States;

3. There has been or is likely to be an 

increase in imports of articles that are

certification of eligibility to apply for 

worker adjustment assistance as an 

adversely affected secondary group to be 

issued, each of the group eligibility 

requirements of Section 222(b) of the 

Act must be met.

of the workers in the workers’ firm or 

an appropriate subdivision of the firm 

have become totally or partially
