SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act

Certificate and carried out in compliance with its terms and
conditions. Section 302(b)(1) of the Act 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.

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
privileged or confidential business information will be deemed to be

nonconfidential version, should be submitted no later than 20 days
after the date of this notice to: Office of Export Trading Company
Affairs, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce,
Room 1104, Washington, DC 20230. Business confidential 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
