juvenile and adult steelhead may be 

taken as well. In both instances, the 

information to be gathered would help 

with monitoring and recovery efforts in 

the area. In addition, the information 

may eventually be used to help guide a 

proposed supplementation program in 

the area. The research would in no way 

pre-dispose the approval of such a 

program, but if it were to be instituted, 

a good deal of the proposed work would 

be analyzed again in the context of that 

larger program. In the interim, the 

research would benefit the fish by 

helping managers guide current and 

future restoration efforts and generating 

information on species status that 

would augment a number of regional 

efforts. The researchers do not propose 

to kill any of the animals being 

captured, but a small number may die 

as an unintended consequence of the 

activities. 

Permit 19470 

The Washington State Department of 

Ecology (WDOE) is seeking a three-year 

permit to collect environmental samples 

in rivers and streams in the state of 

Washington while conducting 

Washington’s Status and Trends 

Monitoring for Watershed Health and 

Salmon Recovery—a statewide habitat 

and biological monitoring program. The 

permit would authorize the WDOE to 

take juvenile and adult UCR Chinook 

salmon and steelhead, SR spr/sum and 

fall-run Chinook salmon, SR steelhead, 

SR sockeye salmon, and MCR steelhead. 

The goal of status and trends monitoring 

is to provide quantitative, statistically 

valid estimates of habitat and water 

quality that are important for policy and 

management decisions. The WDOE 

would monitor seven status and trends 

regions statewide on a four-year cycle. 

The information gathered by this 

research would benefit listed salmonids 

by helping resource managers evaluate 

the effectiveness of habitat restoration 

efforts and monitor aquatic species 

status and trends. The researchers 

would capture fish using boat 

electrofishing equipment; the listed fish 

would be enumerated, measured, and 

released immediately. At no time would 

adults be electrofished. If any adults are 

seen during the electrofishing operation, 

the equipment would immediately be 

turned off and the fish would be 

allowed to escape. If another adult is 

seen, the researchers would move the 

operation. And in no case would the 

electrofishing take place where fish are 

actively spawning. The researchers are 

not proposing to kill any of the fish they 

capture, but a small number may die as 

an unintended result of the activities. 

Permit 19476 

The Island County Department of 

Natural Resources (ICDNR) is seeking a 

five-year research permit to annually 

take juvenile PS Chinook salmon and PS 

steelhead. The sampling would take 

place in the Fidalgo Island and northern 

Whidbey Island shoreline area near 

Deception Pass at Cornet Bay and Ala 

Spit. The purpose of the study is to 

assess salmonid and forage fish use of 

habitat restored by removal of armoring 

and fill. This research would benefit the 

affected species by informing future 

restoration designs as well as providing 

data to support future enhancement 

projects. The ICDNR proposes to capture 

fish using a beach seine. Fish would be 

removed from the net and placed in 

buckets. All fish would be enumerated 

by species and the first 20 of each 

species would be measured for length. 

All fish would be released in the same 

location they were caught. The 

researchers do not propose to kill any of 

the listed salmonids being captured, but 

a small number may die as an 

unintended result of the activities. 

This notice is provided pursuant to 

section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will 

evaluate the applications, associated 

documents, and comments submitted to 

determine whether the applications 

meet the requirements of section 10(a) 

of the ESA and Federal regulations. The 

final permit decisions will not be made 

until after the end of the 30-day 

comment period. NMFS will publish 

notice of its final action in the Federal 

Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority: The CAFTA–DR Agreement; 

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 

Agreement provides a list in Annex 3.25 

for fabrics, yarns, and fibers that the 

Parties to the CAFTA–DR Agreement 

have determined are not available in 

commercial quantities in a timely 

manner in the territory of any Party. The 

CAFTA–DR Agreement provides that 

this list may be modified pursuant to 

Article 3.25(4)–(5) by adding or 

removing items 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; or when the United States 

determines that a fabric, yarn, or fiber 

currently on the list is available in 

commercial quantities in a timely 

manner. The CAFTA–DR 

Implementation Act authorizes the 

President to make such modifications to 

the list in Annex 3.25. See Annex 3.25 

of the CAFTA–DR Agreement; see also 

section 203(o)(4)(C) and (E) 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 

the CAFTA–DR Implementation Act for 

modifying the list in Annex 3.25. 

Pursuant to this authority, 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 

CAFTA–DR (Modifications to 

Procedures for Considering Requests 

Under the Commercial Availability 

Provision of the Dominican RepublicCentral America-United States Free 

Trade Agreement, 73 FR 53200 

(September 15, 2008)) (‘‘CITA’s

On February 27, 2015, the Chairman 

of CITA received a request from Sorini 

Samet & Associates, on behalf of Gildan 

USA, Inc. (‘‘Gildan’’) for a Commercial 

Availability determination to remove or 

restrict (‘‘Request to Remove’’) certain 

three-thread circular knit fleece fabrics, 

currently listed in Annex 3.25. Gildan 

offered to supply the specified fabrics 

and provided information 

demonstrating its ability to supply 

commercial quantities in a timely 

manner. On March 3, 2015, in 

accordance with CITA’s procedures, 

CITA notified interested parties of the 

Request to Remove, which was posted 

on the dedicated Web site for CAFTA– 

DR commercial availability proceedings. 

In its notification, CITA advised that 

any Response to the Request to Remove 

must be submitted by March 13, 2015, 

and any Rebuttal Comments to a 

Response must be submitted by March 

19, 2015, in accordance with Sections 6, 

7 and 9 of CITA’s procedures. No 

interested entity submitted a Response 

advising CITA of its objection to the 

Request to Remove. In accordance with 

section 203(o)(4)(C) of the CAFTA–DR 

Implementation Act, Section 8(a) and 

(b), and Section 9(c)(3) of CITA’s 

procedures, as no interested entity 

submitted a Response objecting to the 

Request to Remove, CITA has 

determined to approve the Request to 

Remove the subject product from the list 

in Annex 3.25. Pursuant to Section 

9(c)(3)(iii)(A), textile and apparel 

articles containing the subject product 

are not to be treated as originating in a 

CAFTA–DR country if the subject 

product is obtained from non-CAFTA–

publication of this notice. A revised list 

in Annex 3.25, noting the effective date 

of the removal of the subject product, 

has been posted on the dedicated Web
