Title: Guidelines for Designating Biobased Products for Federal
Procurement.

OMB Control Number: 0503–0011. Summary of Collection: Section 9002 of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (FSRIA) of 2002, as amended by the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act (FCEA) of 2008, and the Agricultural Act of 2014 [7 U.S.C. 8102] provides for a preferred procurement program under which Federal agencies are required to purchase biobased products, with certain exceptions. Product categories (which are generic groupings of products) are designated by rulemaking for preferred procurement. To qualify product categories for procurement under this program, the statute requires that the Secretary of Agriculture consider information on the availability of biobased products, the economic and technological feasibility of using such products and the costs of using such products. In addition, the Secretary is required to provide information on designated product categories to Federal agencies about the availability, price, performance, and environmental and public health benefits of such product categories, and where appropriate shall recommend the level of biobased material to be contained in the procured product.

Need and Use of the Information: The Office of Procurement and Property Management (OPPM) and the AMEC Environment & Infrastructure, Inc., will interact with manufacturers and venders to gather such information and material for testing, as may be required for designation of products categories for preferred procurement by Federal agencies. The information collected will be gathered using a variety of methods, including face to face visits with a manufacturer or vendor, submission by manufacturers and vendors of information electronically to OPPM, and survey instruments filled out by manufacturers and vendors and submitted to OPPM.

Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.

Number of Respondents: 220. Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Other (once). Total Burden Hours: 8,800.

**Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 41— Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Notification of**  **Proposed Production Activity, CNH Industrial America, LLC, Subzone 41I**  **(4-Wheel Drive Axle Subassemblies), Racine, Wisconsin** 

CNH Industrial America, LLC (CNH) submitted a notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its facilities within Subzone (SZ) 41I, in Racine, Wisconsin. The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on January 20,

2015.

CNH already has authority to produce agricultural tractors and tractor components, cabs, transmissions, axles, valves and valve assemblies, gear boxes for combines, and final drives for combines within SZ 41I. The current request would add to the CNH facility’s scope of authority the production of certain 4-wheel drive axle subassemblies: planetary carrier assemblies; non-driving planetary carrier assemblies; pinion assemblies with differentials; and, engine-powered wheel drive axle assemblies. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority would be limited to the specific finished products described in the submitted notification (as described below) and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board.

Production under FTZ procedures could exempt CNH from customs duty payments on the foreign-status materials/components in the existing scope of authority used in export production of the 4-wheel drive axle subassemblies. On its domestic sales, CNH would be able to choose the duty rates during customs entry procedures that apply to the 4-wheel drive axle subassemblies (duty rates: free or 2.5%) for the foreign-status materials/ components in the existing scope of authority. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign-status production equipment.

Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions shall be addressed to the FTZ Board’s Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period for their receipt is March
16, 2015.

A copy of the notification will be available for public inspection at the Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room 21013, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230–0002, and in the ‘‘Reading Room’’ section of the FTZ Board’s Web site, which is accessible
via www.trade.gov/ftz.
