DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

International Trade Administration

Notice of Allocation of Tariff Rate 

Quotas on the Import of Certain 

Worsted Wool Fabrics for Calendar 

Year 2005

December 8, 2004.

AGENCY: Department of Commerce, 

International Trade Administration.

ACTION: Notice of allocation of 2005 

worsted wool fabric tariff rate quota.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Department) has determined the 

allocation for Calendar Year 2005 of 

imports of certain worsted wool fabrics 

under tariff rate quotas established by 

Title V of the Trade and Development 

Act of 2000 as amended by the Trade 

Act of 2002. The companies that are 

being provided an allocation are listed 

below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Sergio Botero, Office of Textiles and 

Apparel, U.S. Department of Commerce, 

(202) 482-4058.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

BACKGROUND:

Title V of the Trade and Development 

Act of 2000 (The Act) as amended by 

the Trade Act of 2002 creates two tariff 

rate quotas, providing for temporary 

reductions in the import duties on two 

categories of worsted wool fabrics 

suitable for use in making suits, suittype jackets, or trousers. For worsted 

wool fabric with average fiber diameters 

greater than 18.5 microns (Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS) heading 9902.51.11), the 

reduction in duty is limited to 4,500,000 

square meters per year. For worsted 

wool fabric with average fiber diameters 

of 18.5 microns or less (HTSUS heading 

9902.51.12), the reduction is limited to 

3,500,000 square meters per year. The 

Act requires the President to ensure that 

such fabrics are fairly allocated to 

persons (including firms, corporations, 

or other legal entities) who cut and sew 

men’s and boys’ worsted wool suits and 

suit-like jackets and trousers in the 

United States and who apply for an 

allocation based on the amount of such 

suits cut and sewn during the prior 

calendar year. Presidential Proclamation 

7383, of December 1, 2000, authorized 

the Secretary of Commerce to allocate 

the quantity of worsted wool fabric 

imports under the tariff rate quotas. On 

January 22, 2001 the Department 

published regulations establishing 

procedures for applying for, and 

determining, such allocations (66 FR 

6459, 15 CFR 335).

On August 28, 2004, the Department 

published a notice in the Federal 

Register (68 FR 51767) soliciting 

applications for an allocation of the 

2004 tariff rate quotas with a closing 

date of September 29, 2003. The 

Department received timely 

applications for the HTS 9902.51.11 

tariff rate quota from 11 firms. The 

Department received timely 

applications for the HTS 9902.51.12 

tariff rate quota from 14 firms. All 

applicants were determined eligible for 

an allocation. Most applicants 

submitted data on a business 

confidential basis. As allocations to 

firms were determined on the basis of 

this data, the Department considers 

individual firm allocations to be 

business confidential.

FIRMS THAT RECEIVED 

ALLOCATIONS: HTS 9902.51.11, 

fabrics, of worsted wool, with average 

fiber diameter greater than 18.5 micron, 

certified by the importer as suitable for

and Certificate Systems.’’ We invite the 

public to comment on the system 

announced in this publication.

DATES: Written comments must be 

received no later than January 13, 2005. 

The proposed system of records will be 

effective on January 13, 2005, unless the 

Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 239 / Tuesday, December 14, 2004 / Notices 74501

USPTO receives comments that would 

result in a contrary determination.

ADDRESSES: You may submit written

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

United States Patent and Trademark 

Office (USPTO) is giving notice of a new 

system of records that is subject to the 

Privacy Act of 1974. The proposed 

system of records will maintain 

information on all employees and 

contractors and other affiliates who 

require public key infrastructure (PKI) 

authenticated access to USPTO 

automated information systems (AISs). 

The proposed system of records is 

necessary in order to implement a new 

internal PKI in which the digital 

certificates produced by the PKI are 

carried on smart cards that also support 

the physical Access Control System for 

the USPTO, including the main offices 

at the Carlyle campus in Alexandria, 

VA. The smart card-based system will 

use electronic access credentials, such 

as digital public key or PKI certificates. 

Access to electronic agency assets, 

including the USPTO computer network 

and the USPTO desktop and laptop 

computers, will be controlled using this 

new process. This will provide a high 

level of security authentication in 

accord with recent Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) and 

Federal Identity Credentialing 

Committee guidance. 

The proposed new system of records, 

‘‘COMMERCE/PAT–TM–17 USPTO 

Security Access Control and Certificate 

Systems,’’ is published in its entirety 

below.

COMMERCE/PAT–TM–17 

SYSTEM NAME: 

USPTO Security Access Control and 

Certificate Systems. 

SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: 

Unclassified. 

SYSTEM LOCATION: 

IT Security Program Office, United 

States Patent and Trademark Office, 

Madison Building West–Room 5A29, 

600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, VA 

22314.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE

SYSTEM: 

USPTO employees, contractors, and 

other affiliates requiring PKIauthenticated access to USPTO 

electronic assets including the network, 

desktops, and laptops. 

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: 

The system contains information 

needed to establish identity, 

accountability, and audit control of 

digital certificates issued by the new 

USPTO internal PKI that have been 

assigned to personnel who require 

access to USPTO electronic assets, 

including the USPTO network, as well 

as those who transmit electronic data 

that requires the protection of PKI 

security services. The records are 

created and maintained to provide 

assurance that the digital certificates are 

issued and delivered to the correct 

individual, who typically has been 

issued a smart card by the USPTO 

Office of Security. 

Records may include the individual’s 

name; organization; work telephone 

number; social security number; driver’s 

license number; passport number; date 

of birth; employee number; smart card 

serial number; work e-mail address; 

status as an employee, contractor or 

other affiliation with the USPTO; title; 

home address and phone number. 

Records also include information on 

the creation, renewal, replacement or 

revocation of digital certificates, 

including evidence provided by 

applicants for proof of identity and 

authority, sources used to verify an 

applicant’s identity and authority, and 

the certificates issued, denied and 

revoked, including reasons for denial 

and revocation. 

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM: 

5 U.S.C. 301; 35 U.S.C. 2; the 

Electronic Signatures in Global and 

National Commerce Act, Pub. L. 106–

229; and E.O. 9397. 

PURPOSE(S): 

To improve security for USPTO 

electronic assets; to maintain 

accountability for issuance and 

disposition of security access; to 

maintain an electronic system to 

facilitate secure on-line communication 

between Federal automated systems, 

between Federal employees or 

contractors, and with the public, using 

digital signature technologies to 

authenticate and verify identity; to 

provide a means of access to USPTO 

electronic assets including the USPTO 

network, desktops, and laptops; and to 

provide mechanisms for nonrepudiation of personal identification 

and access to sensitive electronic 

systems, including but not limited to 

human resource, financial, 

procurement, travel and property 

systems, as well as systems containing 

information on intellectual property and 

other mission critical systems. The 

system also maintains records relating 

to the issuance of digital certificates 

utilizing public key cryptography to 

employees and contractors for the 

transmission of sensitive electronic 

material that requires protection.
