Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 119 / Wednesday, June 20, 2001 / Notices 33053

Commercial Service’s objective and

selection criteria mentioned below.

The Department selects events which

it determines to be a leading

international trade show appropriate for

participation by U.S. exporting firms

and promotion in overseas markets by

U.S. Embassies and Consulates.

Selection does not constitute a

guarantee by the U.S. Government of the

show’s success. Selection is not an

endorsement of the show organizer

except as to its international buyer

activities. Non-selection should not be

viewed as a finding that the event will

not be successful in the promotion of

U.S. exports.

Exclusions: Trade shows that are

either first-time or horizontal (nonindustry specific) events will not be

considered. Annual trade shows will

not be selected for this program more

than three times in any four-year period

(e.g., shows selected for fiscal years

2000, 2001 and 2002 are not eligible for

inclusion in this program in fiscal year

2003, but can be considered in

subsequent years).

General Selection Criteria

Those events will be selected that, in

the judgment of the Department, most

clearly meet the following criteria:

(a) Export Potential: The products and

services to be promoted at the trade

show are from U.S. industries that have

high export potential, as determined by

DOC sources, i.e., best prospects lists

and U.S. export statistics (certain

industries are rated as priorities by our

domestic and international commercial

officers in their Country Commercial

Guides).

(b) International Interest: The trade

show meets the needs of a significant

number of overseas markets and

corresponds to marketing opportunities

as identified by the posts in their

Country Commercial Guides (e.g. best

prospect lists). Previous international

attendance at the show may be used as

an indicator.

(c) Scope of the Show: The trade show

offers a broad spectrum of U.S.-made

products and/or services for the subject

industry. Trade shows with a majority

of United States businesses, as defined

in 15 U.S.C. 4724, will be given

preference.

(d) Stature of the show: The trade

show is clearly recognized by the

industry it covers as a leading event for

the promotion of that industry’s

products and services, both

domestically and internationally, and as

a showplace for the latest technology or

services in that industry or sector.

(e) Exhibitor Interest: There is

demonstrated interest on the part of U.S.

exhibitors in receiving international

business visitors during the trade show.

A significant number of these exhibitors

should be new-to-export or seeking to

expand sales into additional

international markets.

(f) Overseas Marketing: There has

been demonstrated effort made to

market prior shows overseas. In

addition, the applicant should describe

in detail the international marketing

program to be conducted for the event,

explaining how efforts should increase

individual and group international

attendance.

(g) Logistics: The trade show site,

facilities, transportation services, and

availability of accommodations are in

the stature of an international-class

trade show.

(h) Cooperation: The applicant

demonstrates a willingness to cooperate

with the Commercial Service to fulfill

the program’s goals and to adhere to

target dates set out in the MOU and the

event timetable, both of which are

available from the program office (see

‘‘For Further Information’’ section above

on when, where, and how to apply).

Past experience in the IBP will be taken

into account in evaluating current

applications to the program.

Legal Authority: The Commercial

Service has the legal authority to enter

into the above-mentioned MOU with the

show organizer under the provisions of

the Mutual Educational and Cultural

Exchange Act of 1961, as amended (22

U.S.C. 2455(f)). The statutory authority

for the Commercial Service to conduct

the International Buyer Program is 15

U.S.C. 4724.

The Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) has approved the information

collection requirements of the

application to this program under the

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 2501 et seq.)

(OMB Control No. 0625–0151).

Notwithstanding any other provision of

law, no person is required to respond to

nor shall a person be subject to a

penalty for failure to comply with a

collection of information subject to the

requirements of the Paperwork

Reduction Act unless that collection of

information displays a currently valid

OMB Control Number.

Patent application Serial Number 09/

747,521 entitled ‘‘Methods for

Protection Against Lethal Infection with

Bacillus Anthracis’’ filed 21 December

2000. The present invention relates to

the use selected genes from the

pathogen Bacillus anthracis for

constructing a plasmid or DNA-based

vaccine which can be used to immunize

susceptible hosts against the pathogenic

effects of B. anthracis infection.

Moreover, the invention describes the

protective effects of immunization with

DNA constructs encoding the Protective

Antigen (PA) or the Lethal Factor (LF)

and mutants thereof. Most importantly,

the invention describes the complete

protection of hosts following coimmunization of a host with PA and LF

demonstrating a surprising synergistic

effect. Lastly, the invention teaches the

use of the synergistic effect of PA and/

or LF genes for use as a general adjuvant

for co-immunization with other DNA or

protein based vaccines.
