SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act
of 1982 (15 U.S.C. 4001-21) authorizes the Secretary of Commerce to
issue Export Trade Certificates of Review. An Export Trade Certificate
of Review protects the holder and the members identified in the
Certificate from State and Federal government antitrust actions and
from private treble damage antitrust actions for the export conduct
specified in the Certificate and carried out in compliance with its
terms and conditions. Section 302(b)(1) of the Export Trading Company
Act of 1982 and 15 CFR 325.6(a) require the Secretary to publish a
notice in the Federal Register identifying the applicant and
summarizing its proposed export conduct.

Interested parties may submit written comments relevant to the
determination whether an amended Certificate should be issued. If the
comments include any privileged or confidential business information,
it must be clearly marked and a nonconfidential version of the comments
(identified as such) should be included. Any comments not marked as
privileged or confidential business information will be deemed to be
nonconfidential.
An original and five (5) copies, plus two (2) copies of the
nonconfidential version, should be submitted no later than 20 days
after the date of this notice to: Export Trading Company Affairs,
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, Room
7025-X, Washington, DC 20230.
Information submitted by any person is exempt from disclosure under
the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552). However, nonconfidential
versions of the comments will be made available to the applicant if
necessary for determining whether or not to issue the Certificate.
Comments should refer to this application as ``Export Trade Certificate
of Review, application number 85-18A018.''
