SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act
of 1982 (15 U.S.C. Sections 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. The regulations implementing Title III are found
at 15 CFR part 325 (2015). Section 302(b)(1) of the Export Trade
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 application. Under 15 CFR 325.6(a), interested parties
may, within twenty days after the date of this notice, submit written
comments to the Secretary on the application.
Request for Public Comments: 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: Office of Trade and Economic
Analysis, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, Room 21028, 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 amended
Certificate. Comments should refer to this application as ``Export
Trade Certificate of Review, application number 03-1A008.''
