8184 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 25 / Tuesday, February 6, 2024 / Notices 

‘‘Approved Requests,’’ File Number: 

CA2023002. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority: The CAFTA–DR; Section 

203(o)(4) of the Dominican RepublicCentral America-United States Free 

Trade Agreement Implementation Act 

(‘‘CAFTA–DR Implementation Act’’), 

Public Law 109–53; the Statement of 

Administrative Action accompanying 

the CAFTA–DR Implementation Act; 

and Presidential Proclamation 7987 

(February 28, 2006). 

Background: The CAFTA–DR 

provides a list in Annex 3.25 for fabrics, 

yarns, and fibers that the Parties to the 

CAFTA–DR have determined are not 

available in commercial quantities in a 

timely manner in the territory of any 

Party. The CAFTA–DR provides that 

this list may be modified pursuant to 

Article 3.25.4, when the United States 

determines that a fabric, yarn, or fiber is 

not available in commercial quantities 

in a timely manner in the territory of 

any Party. See Annex 3.25 of the 

CAFTA–DR; see also section 

203(o)(4)(C) of the CAFTA–DR 

Implementation Act. 

The CAFTA–DR Implementation Act 

requires the President to establish 

procedures governing the submission of 

a request and providing opportunity for 

interested entities to submit comments 

and supporting evidence before a 

commercial availability determination is 

made. In Presidential Proclamation 

7987, the President delegated to CITA 

the authority under section 203(o)(4) of 

CAFTA–DR Implementation Act for 

modifying the Annex 3.25 list. Pursuant 

to this authority, on September 15, 

2008, CITA published modified 

procedures it would follow in 

considering requests to modify the 

Annex 3.25 list of products determined 

to be not commercially available in the 

territory of any Party to the CAFTA–DR 

(Modifications to Procedures for 

Considering Requests Under the 

Commercial Availability Provision of 

the Dominican Republic-Central 

America-United States Free Trade 

Agreement, 73 FR 53200) (‘‘CITA’s 

Procedures’’). 

On December 27, 2023, CITA received 

a Commercial Availability Request 

(‘‘Request’’) from The Powers 

Manufacturing Company d/b/a Powers 

Athletic (‘‘Powers Athletic’’) for certain 

nylon dobby weave fabric, as specified 

below. On December 29, 2023, in 

accordance with CITA’s Procedures, 

CITA notified interested parties of the 

Request, which was posted on the 

dedicated website for CAFTA–DR 

Commercial Availability proceedings. In 

its notification, CITA advised that any 

Response with an Offer to Supply 

(‘‘Response’’) must be submitted by 

January 11, 2024, and any Rebuttal to a 

Response (‘‘Rebuttal’’) must be 

submitted by January 18, 2024, in 

accordance with sections 6 and 7 of 

CITA’s Procedures. No interested entity 

submitted a Response to the Request 

advising CITA of its objection to the 

Request with an offer to supply the 

subject product. 

In accordance with section 

203(o)(4)(C) of the CAFTA–DR 

Implementation Act, and section 8(c)(2) 

of CITA’s Procedures, as no interested 

entity submitted a Response objecting to 

the Request and providing an offer to 

supply the subject product, CITA has 

determined to add the specified fabric to 

the list in Annex 3.25 of the CAFTA– 

DR. 

The subject product has been added 

to the list in Annex 3.25 of the CAFTA– 

DR Agreement in unrestricted 

quantities. A revised list has been 

posted on the dedicated website for 

CAFTA–DR Commercial Availability 

proceedings, at https://

Note: The yarn size designations describe 

a range of specifications for yarn in its greige 

condition. They are intended as 

specifications to be followed by the mill in 

sourcing yarn to produce the fabric. Weaving, 

dyeing, and finishing can alter the 

characteristic of the yarn as it appears in the 

finished fabric. This 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. Such processing 

may alter the measurements.

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 25 / Tuesday, February 6, 2024 / Notices 8185 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions; 

• Propose ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

• Propose ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, including 

through the use of appropriate 

automated, electronic, mechanical, or 

other technological collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology. 

Comments 

A 60-day Notice requesting public 

comment was published in the Federal 

Register on September 7, 2023 at 88 FR 

61575. This comment period ended 

November 6, 2023. One public comment 

was received from this notice. The 

comment received inquired about (1) 

data collection and data ownership, (2) 

the purpose and need for the Public 

Health AmeriCorps Technical 

Assistance and Training Form, and (3) 

the length of the Public Health 

AmeriCorps Outcome Evaluation Draft 

survey. Responses are: 

• All data collected will be managed 

and securely stored by the contractor 

and delivered to the AmeriCorps Office 

of Research and Evaluation (ORE) in 

aggregate form during the contract term, 

and after the contract ends, will be 

delivered to ORE as a de-identified 

public use data file and a restricted use 

data file. ORE will securely store the 

data and AmeriCorps programs will not 

have access to the data except in 

aggregate form, upon request. 

• The Public Health AmeriCorps 

Technical Assistance and Training form 

was a requested instrument from the 

program team. This instrument will 

allow for the contractor to distill any 

information that wasn’t already 

collected in the grantee survey or focus 

group guide. The instrument will be 

used as a supplemental tool to capture 

any additional information that wasn’t 

collected in other activities. 

• The evaluation team has been 

mindful of the length and burden of the 

member survey. The survey has gone 

through several iterations and has been 

shortened. The contractor piloted the 

instrument with up to nine members 

and conducted cognitive interviews 

after the members completed the survey. 

The version the contractor piloted took 

participants on average less than 30 

minutes to complete and participants 

did not express dissatisfaction with the 

length of the survey. The reason for 

keeping questions that are also found in 

the Member Exit Survey (MES) is that 

participants in the Public Health 

AmeriCorps evaluation might not 

complete the MES, and consequently it 

would not be possible to merge the two 

surveys. It is important for the Public 

Health AmeriCorps survey to include 

complete data to address the evaluation 

questions and to create more complete 

datasets across the agency. We want to 

ensure we close any gaps (intake 

information and member surveys) and 

confirm information already received. 

The purpose of reaching out to members 

who exited early is to better understand 

their experience and the challenges they 

encountered in completing their service. 

This data may inform programmatic 

changes with the aim of minimizing 

attrition among members. We will also 

benchmark the Public Health 

AmeriCorps survey to other similar 

public health program to see how Public 

Health AmeriCorps is achieving the goal 

of creating a pathway to public health 

careers. 

Title of Collection: Evaluation of 

Public Health AmeriCorps. 

OMB Control Number: 3045–NEW. 

Type of Review: New. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals and Households 

(AmeriCorps Members) and Businesses 

and Organizations (Grantees). 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 2,198. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 2,097. 

Abstract: The evaluation will examine 

the extent to which Public Health 

AmeriCorps is progressing toward its 

goals to address public health needs and 

develop the next generation of public 

health leaders. The evaluation will 

answer questions about the challenges 

and successes with program 

implementation, recruitment and 

retention of members, partnership 

between grantees and other 

organizations such as state and local 

health departments, members’ career 

intentions, and members’ professional 

development. This information 

collection request includes several 

information collection instruments: a 

member alumni survey, an early exit 

survey, a grantee survey, a training and 

technical assistance form, grantee focus 

group questions, early exit interview 

questions, and partner interview 

questions. The burden hour per 

response for each of these instruments 

ranges from 15 minutes to an hour and 

a half. Throughout the evaluation design 

process, AmeriCorps received feedback 

and guidance from partners and 

advisory groups, including AmeriCorps 

staff, CDC staff, and public health and 

public health workforce professionals. 

This is a new information collection.
