The Committee’s Procedures, 68 FR 

27787 (May 21, 2003) state that the 

Committee will make a determination 

within 60 calendar days of the close of 

the public comment period as to 

whether the United States will request 

consultations with China. If the 

Committee is unable to make a 

determination within 60 calendar days, 

it will cause to be published a notice in 

the Federal Register, including the date 

by which it will make a determination. 

The 60 day determination period for 

the market disruption case expired on 

August 2, 2005 and the determination 

period for the threat case expired on 

August 5, 2005. However, the 

Committee decided to extend until 

August 31, 2005, the period for making 

determinations on these cases in order 

to consult with the domestic textile and 

apparel industry and members of 

Congress about whether to pursue a 

broader agreement with China on 

imports of Chinese textile and apparel 

products to the United States. Because 

of these consultations, the Committee 

was unable to make a determination 

within 60 days of the close of the public 

comment period. See Extension of 

Period of Determination on Request for 

Textile and Apparel Safeguard Action 

on Imports from China, 70 FR 45702 

(August 8, 2005). The Committee is 

unable to make a determination within 

the extended period because it is 

continuing to evaluate conditions in the 

market for cotton and man-made fiber 

dressing gowns and robes. Therefore, 

the Committee is further extending the 

determination period to October 1, 

2005.

COMMITTEE FOR THE 

IMPLEMENTATION OF TEXTILE 

AGREEMENTS 

Extension of Period of Determination 

on Request for Textile and Apparel 

Safeguard Action on Imports from 

China 

September 2, 2005. 

AGENCY: The Committee for the 

Implementation of Textile Agreements 

(the Committee). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Committee is extending 

through October 1, 2005, the period for 

making a determination on whether to 

request consultations with China 

regarding imports of men’s and boys’

wool trousers (Category 447). 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jay 

Dowling, Office of Textiles and Apparel, 

U.S. Department of Commerce, (202) 

482-4058. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority: Section 204 of the Agriculture 

Act of 1956, as amended; Executive Order 

11651, as amended. 

Background 

On November 12, 2004, the 

Committee received a request from the 

American Manufacturing Trade Action 

Coalition, the National Council of 

Textile Organizations, the National 

Textile Association, SEAMS, and 

UNITE HERE requesting that the 

Committee limit imports from China of 

men’s and boys’ wool trousers (Category 

447) due to the threat of market 

disruption. The Committee determined 

that this request provided the 

information necessary for the 

Committee to consider the request and 

solicited public comments for a period 

of 30 days. See Solicitation of Public 

Comments on Request for Textile and 

Apparel Safeguard Action on Imports 

from China, 69 FR 71781 (Dec. 10, 

2004). 

On December 30, 2004, the Court of 

International Trade preliminarily 

enjoined the Committee from 

considering or taking any further action 

on this request and any other requests 

‘‘that are based on the threat of market 

disruption’’. U.S. Association of 

Importers of Textiles and Apparel v. 

United States, 350 F. Supp. 2d 1342 

(CIT 2004). On April 27, 2005 the Court 

of Appeals for the Federal Circuit 

granted the U.S. government’s motion 

for a stay and reversed the lower court 

on June 28, 2005. U.S. Association of 

Importers of Textiles and Apparel v. 

United States, 413 F. 3d 1344 (Fed. Cir. 

2005). Thus, CITA resumed 

consideration of this case. 

The public comment period for this 

request had not yet closed when the 

injunction took effect on December 30, 

2004. The number of calendar days 

remaining in the public comment period 

beginning with and including December 

30, 2004 was 12 days. On May 9, 2005, 

therefore, the Committee published a 

notice in the Federal Register reopening the comment period and 

inviting public comments to be received 

not later than May 23, 2005. See 

Rescheduling of Consideration of 

Request for Textile and Apparel 

Safeguard Action on Imports from 

China and Solicitations of Public 

Comments, 70 FR 24397 (May 9, 2005). 

The Committee’s Procedures, 68 FR 

27787 (May 21, 2003) state that the 

Committee will make a determination 

within 60 calendar days of the close of 

the public comment period as to 

whether the United States will request 

consultations with China. If the 

Committee is unable to make a 

determination within 60 calendar days, 

it will cause to be published a notice in 

the Federal Register, including the date 

by which it will make a determination. 

The 60 day determination period for 

this case expired on July 22, 2005. 

However, the Committee was unable to 

make a determination at that time and 

extended the determination period to 

July 31, 2005. See Extension of Period 

of Determination on Request for Textile 

and Apparel Safeguard Action on 

Imports from China, 70 FR 43397 (July 

27, 2005). The Committee decided to 

further extend until August 31, 2005, 

the period for making a determination 

on this case in order to consult with the 

domestic textile and apparel industry 

and members of Congress about whether 

to pursue a broader agreement with 

China on imports of Chinese textile and 

apparel products to the United States. 

Because of these consultations, the 

Committee was unable to make a 

determination within 60 days of the 

close of the public comment period. See 

Extension of Period of Determination on 

Request for Textile and Apparel 

Safeguard Action on Imports from 

China, 70 FR 45703 (August 8, 2005). 

The Committee is unable to make a 

determination within the extended 

period because it is continuing to 

evaluate conditions in the market for 

men’s and boys’ wool trousers. 

Therefore, the Committee is further 

extending the determination period to 

October 1, 2005.

a federally-declared disaster area and
