Sectoral Effects 

AGENCY: United States International 

Trade Commission. 

ACTION: Institution of investigation and 

scheduling of public hearing. 

DATES: Effective Date: October 28, 2005. 

SUMMARY: Following receipt of a request 

from the United States Trade 

Representative (USTR) on October 19, 

2005, the Commission instituted 

investigation No. TA–2104–19, U.S.- 

Oman Free Trade Agreement: Potential 

Economywide and Selected Sectoral 

Effects, under section 2104(f) of the 

Trade Act of 2002 (19 U.S.C. 3804(f)), 

for the purpose of assessing the likely 

impact of the U.S. Free Trade 

Agreement with Oman on the United 

States economy as a whole and on 

specific industry sectors and the 

interests of U.S. consumers. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Project Leaders, Robert Wallace, Office 

of Industries (202–205–3458; 

robert.wallace@usitc.gov), or Nannette 

Christ, Office of Economics (202–205–

3263; nannette.christ@usitc.gov). For 

information on legal aspects, contact 

William Gearhart of the Office of the 

General Counsel (202–205–3091; 

william.gearhart@usitc.gov). The media 

should contact Margaret O’Laughlin, 

Office of External Relations (202–205–

1819; margaret.olaughlin@usitc.gov). 

Background: As requested by the 

USTR, the Commission will prepare a 

report as specified in section 2104(f)(2)–

(3) of the Trade Act of 2002 assessing 

the likely impact of the U.S. Free Trade 

Agreement with Oman on the U.S. 

economy as a whole and on specific 

industry sectors, including the impact 

the agreement will have on the gross 

domestic product, exports and imports, 

aggregate employment and employment 

opportunities, the production, 

employment, and competitive position 

of industries likely to be significantly 

affected by the agreement, and the 

interests of U.S. consumers. 

In preparing its assessment, the 

Commission will review available 

economic assessments regarding the 

agreement, including literature 

concerning any substantially equivalent 

proposed agreement, and will provide 

in its assessment a description of the 

analyses used and conclusions drawn in 

such literature, and a discussion of areas 

of consensus and divergence between 

the various analyses and conclusions, 

including those of the Commission 

regarding the agreement. 

Section 2104(f)(2) requires that the 

Commission submit its report to the 

President and the Congress not later 

than 90 days after the President enters 

into the agreement, which he can do 90 

days after he notifies the Congress of his 

intent to do so. On October 17, 2005, the 

President notified the Congress of his 

intent to enter into an FTA with Oman. 

The USTR requested that the 

Commission provide the report by 

February 3, 2006.

OFFICE OF PERSONNEL 

MANAGEMENT 

Comment Request for Review of a 

Revised Information Collection: OPM 

Online Form 1417 

AGENCY: Office of Personnel 

Management. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 

L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice 

announces that the Office of Personnel 

Management (OPM) intends to submit to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) a request for clearance of a 

revised information collection. OPM 

Online Form 1417, the Combined 

Federal Campaign (CFC) Information 

System form, collects information from 

the 302 local CFC campaigns to verify 

campaign results and collect contact 

information. Revisions to the form 

clarify OPM’s request for campaign 

costs, solicitation data, prior-year 

receipts, and the inclusion of electronic 

fund information (EFT). Campaign EFT 

information is released only to Federal 

payroll providers for the proper and 

timely disbursement of aggregated 

donor pledges. OPM has routinely 

collected EFT information through email. 

We estimate 302 Online OPM Forms 

1417 are completed annually. Each form 

takes approximately 20 minutes to 

complete. The annual estimated burden 

is 101 hours. 

Comments are particularly invited on: 

Whether this information is necessary 

for the proper performance of functions 

of the Office of Personnel Management, 

and whether it will have practical 

utility; whether our estimate of the 

public burden of this collection of 

information is accurate, and based on 

valid assumptions and methodology; 

and ways in which we can minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, through 

the appropriate use of technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

For copies of this proposal, contact 

Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on (202) 606–

8358, FAX (202) 418–3251 or E-mail to 

mbtoomey@opm.gov. Please be sure to 

include a mailing address with your 

request. 

DATES: Comments on this proposal 

should be received within 60 calendar 

days from the date of this publication. 

ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments 

to Cherlynn Stevens, CFC Operations, 

Office of CFC Operations, U.S. Office of 

Personnel Management, 1900 E Street, 

NW., Room 5450, Washington, DC
