Specifications: Certain Cotton Corduroy Fabric
HTS Subheading: 5801.22.1000,
5801.22.9000 Wales: 6–10 wales per centimeter (19–23 wales per inch) Fiber content: greater than 95% cotton by weight Weight: 133–147 grams per square meter Warp, ends per centimeter: 28–33 Filling, picks per centimeter: 66–73 Yarn counts:

Warp yarn: English—38–42; Metric 65–70 Filling yarn: English—38–42; Metric 65–70 Width: 134–153 centimeters; 53–60 inches Finish: Cut, Desized

Note: The yarn size designations describe a range of yarn specifications for yarn in its greige condition before dyeing and finishing of the yarn (if applicable) and before knitting, dyeing and finishing of the fabric. They are intended as specifications to be followed by the mill in sourcing yarn used to produce the fabric. However, because dyeing, finishing, and knitting can alter the characteristic of the yarn as it appears in the finished fabric, the specification therefore includes yarns appearing in the finished fabric as finer or coarser than the designated yarn sizes provided that the variation occurs after processing of the greige yarn and production of the fabric. In addition, while the fabric is intended to be piece-dyed, the specifications include both piece- and yarn-dyed to accommodate any Customs’ findings that the finished fabric appears to be yarn-dyed as a result of dye absorption.

**AGENCY :**  Council on Environmental Quality.

**ACTION :**  Notice of Availability of Final Principles and Requirements.

**SUMMARY :**  Section 2031 of the Water Resources Development Act of 2007 (Pub. L. 110–114) directed the Secretary of the Army to revise the ‘‘Economic and Environmental Principles and Guidelines for Water and Related Land Resources Implementation Studies’’ (Principles and Guidelines), dated March 10, 1983, consistent with several considerations enumerated in the Act.

The revised Principles and Guidelines consist of three key components: (1) The Principles and Requirements (formerly called Principles and Standards), setting out broad policy and principles that guide investments; (2) the Interagency Guidelines, providing guidance to Federal agencies for determining the applicability of the Principles andGuidelines and for developing agencyspecific implementing procedures for formulating, evaluating, and comparing water resources projects, programs, activities and related actions; and (3) the Agency Specific Procedures, outlining agency-specific procedures for incorporating the Principles and Requirements into agency missions and
programs.

This notice is to inform you that the Principles and Requirements, one key component of the Principles and Guidelines, are finalized and available at www.whitehouse.gov/administration/ eop/ceq/initiatives/PandG. The Principles and Requirements were developed through a collaborative interagency process that promoted the open exchange of information and perspectives. The process has engaged the public through formal public review and workshops, and included an external peer review by the National Academies of Science as required by the Water Resources Development Act of
2007.

Modernized Principles and Guidelines will improve Federal government decision making related to investment in water resource projects and, thus, improve how our country plans for infrastructure projects.

**DATES :**  The Principles and Requirements were issued on March 18, 2013.
