Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 193 / Thursday, October 6, 2005 / Notices 58389 

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 was unable to make a 

determination within the extended 

period because it was continuing to 

evaluate conditions in the market for 

men’s and boys’ wool trousers. 

Therefore, the Committee further 

extended the determination period to 

October 1, 2005. See Extension of 

Period of Determination on Request for 

Textile and Apparel Safeguard Action 

on Imports from China, 70 FR 53640 

(September 9, 2005). The United States 

and China have held three rounds of 

consultations on a broader agreement on 

textiles, and further consultations will 

be scheduled. Because of these 

consultations, the Committee is further 

extending the determination period to 

November 30, 2005.

Chairman, Committee for the Implementation 

of Textile Agreements.
