Abstract of Proposed Collection 

The Department’s student internship 

programs provide a key source of 

potential prospects who have an interest 

in, and are qualified, to become future 

Department employees. Naturally, HR/

REE wants to strengthen and maintain 

its connections to this group, fostering 

and mentoring a pool of prospects from 

which to obtain successful recruits. 

In June 2008, HR/REE surveyed over 

3,500 former interns who served from 

2005 through spring 2008. The intern 

alumni were queried as to their 

motivation in seeking an internship, 

whether or not they had pursued a 

career with either the Foreign Service or 

Civil Service, and what their 

recommendations would be for the best 

ways for the Department to maintain 

contact after the conclusion of their 

internships. Intern alumni endorse 

continued contact with Department 

representatives mainly through 

electronic means and Web site 

reminders of career opportunities. 

In an effort to address these findings 

and provide viable solutions to 

improving student engagement prior to, 

during and following an internship, the 

Department developed an intern 

engagement strategy that will ultimately 

result in a measurable conversion of 

interns into Department hires for the 

Foreign or Civil Service. The foundation 

of this strategy is INTERNational 

Connections, a web-based career 

networking site for current and former 

interns as well as Department 

employees that collects pertinent 

information about them, their 

experiences and their career goals. 

Methodology 

Users register online at https://

internconnect.careers.state.gov and 

create a profile that includes: full name, 

program status, names of colleges 

attended, major/minor, where the user 

is from, current post, year graduated, 

career goals and interests, personal 

interests, career path, bureau, job title, 

professional experience and languages 

the user can speak. The respondents are 

current and former interns, as well as 

Department employees.

BILLING CODE 4710–15–P 

OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES 

TRADE REPRESENTATIVE 

Reallocation of Unused Fiscal Year 

2016 Tariff-Rate Quota Volume for Raw 

Cane Sugar 

AGENCY: Office of the United States 

Trade Representative. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Office of the United 

States Trade Representative (USTR) is 

providing notice of country-by-country 

reallocations of the fiscal year (FY) 2016 

in-quota quantity of the World Trade 

Organization (WTO) tariff-rate quota 

(TRQ) for imported raw cane sugar. 

DATES: Effective: March 8, 2016. 

ADDRESSES: Inquiries may be mailed or 

delivered to Ronald Baumgarten, 

Director of Agricultural Affairs, Office of 

Agricultural Affairs, Office of the United 

States Trade Representative, 600 17th 

Street NW., Washington, DC 20508. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Ronald Baumgarten, Office of the 

United States Trade Representative, 

Office of Agricultural Affairs, telephone: 

202–395–9583 or facsimile: 202–395– 

4579. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to Additional U.S. Note 5 to Chapter 17 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTS), the United 

States maintains WTO TRQs for imports 

of raw cane and refined sugar. 

Section 404(d)(3) of the Uruguay 

Round Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 

3601(d)(3)) authorizes the President to 

allocate the in-quota quantity of a TRQ 

for any agricultural product among 

supplying countries or customs areas. 

The President delegated this authority 

to the United States Trade 

Representative under Presidential 

Proclamation 6763 (60 FR 1007). 

On June 15, 2015, the Secretary of 

Agriculture established the FY 2016 

TRQ for imported raw cane sugar at the 

minimum to which the United States is 

committed pursuant to the World Trade 

Organization (WTO) Uruguay Round 

Agreements (1,117,195 metric tons raw 

value (MTRV)). On July 15, 2015, USTR 

provided notice of country-by-country 

allocations of the FY 2016 in-quota 

quantity of the WTO TRQ for imported 

raw cane sugar. Based on consultation 

with quota holders, USTR has 

determined to reallocate 86,533 MTRV 

of the original TRQ quantity from those 

countries that are unable to fill their FY 

2016 allocated raw cane sugar 

quantities. USTR is allocating the 

86,533 MTRV to the following countries 

in the amounts specified below: 

Country FY 2016 

reallocation 

Argentina .............................. 3,884 

Australia ................................ 7,497 

Belize .................................... 994 

Brazil ..................................... 13,097 

Colombia ............................... 2,168 

Costa Rica ............................ 1,355 

Dominican Republic .............. 15,897 

Ecuador ................................ 994 

El Salvador ........................... 2,348 

Fiji ......................................... 813 

Guatemala ............................ 4,336 

Guyana ................................. 1,084 

Honduras .............................. 903 

India ...................................... 723 

Jamaica ................................ 994 

Malawi ................................... 903 

Mauritius ............................... 1,084 

Mozambique ......................... 1,174 

Nicaragua ............................. 1,897 

Panama ................................ 2,619 

Peru ...................................... 3,703 

Philippines ............................ 12,194 

South Africa .......................... 2,078 

Swaziland ............................. 1,445 

Thailand ................................ 1,265 

Zimbabwe ............................. 1,084 

These allocations are based on the 

countries’ historical shipments to the 

United States. The allocations of the raw 

cane sugar WTO TRQ to countries that 

are net importers of sugar are 

conditioned on receipt of the 

appropriate verifications of origin. 

Certificates for quota eligibility must 

accompany imports from any country 

for which an allocation has been 

provided. 

Conversion factor: 1 metric ton = 

1.10231125 short tons.

United States Trade Representative.
