The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

amend Class E airspace at Torrington,

Wyoming, to provide additional

controlled airspace for a NDB SIAP at

the Torrington Municipal Airport. The

area would be depicted on aeronautical

charts for pilot reference. The

coordinates for this airspace docket are

based on North American Datum 83.

Class E airspace areas extending upward

from 700 feet or more above the surface

of the earth are published in paragraph

6005 of FAA Order 7400.9C dated

August 17, 1995, and effective

September 16, 1995, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The Class E airspace designation

listed in this document would be

published subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this

proposed regulation only involves an

established body of technical

regulations for which frequent and

routine amendments are necessary to

keep them operationally current. It,

therefore, (1) is not a ‘‘significant

regulatory action’’ under Executive

Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant

rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies

and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February

26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant

preparation of a regulatory evaluation as

the anticipated impact is so minimal.

Since this is a routine matter that will

only affect air traffic procedures and air

navigation, it is certified that this rule,

when promulgated, will not have a

significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.

Proposed Establishment of Temporary

Restricted Area R–3203D, Orchard, ID

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal.

SUMMARY: This action withdraws the

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)

published in the Federal Register on

April 22, 1996. The NPRM proposed to

establish a temporary restricted area at

Orchard, ID, to support the Idaho

National Guard’s increased training

requirements. The FAA has determined

that withdrawal of the proposal is

warranted because insufficient time

exists to complete the required

rulemaking action for the additional

restricted airspace prior to the exercise

start date.

DATES: The proposed rule is withdrawn

July 10, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April

22, 1996, an NPRM was published in

the Federal Register to amend Title 14

of the Code of Federal Regulations part

73 (14 CFR part 73) to establish a

temporary restricted area at Orchard, ID,

to support the Idaho National Guard’s

increased training requirements (61 FR

17608). No comments were received on

the proposal.
36318 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 133 / Wednesday, July 10, 1996 / Proposed Rules

The FAA has decided to withdraw the

proposal at this time because

insufficient time exists to complete the

required rulemaking action for the

additional restricted airspace prior to

the exercise start date.

Collection of Canadian Province of

Origin Information on Customs Entry

Records

AGENCY: Bureau of the Census,

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking

and request for comments.

SUMMARY: The Bureau of the Census

(Census) intends to direct the U.S.

Customs Service (Customs) to begin

collecting information on Canadian

Province of Origin for imports from

Canada. This information would be

required for all U.S. imports that

originate in Canada, except for imports

of softwood lumber products that

already require information on

Canadian Province of Manufacture. This

action is taken to fulfill the

requirements of the 1987 agreement

between the United States and Canada

under which the countries agreed to

replace their requirements for reporting

export data by substituting exchanged

import information.

DATES: Written comments must be

submitted on or before September 9,

1996.

ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments

on this proposed rulemaking to the

Director, Bureau of the Census, Room

2049, Federal Building 3, Washington,

D.C. 20233. Direct all written comments

on the paperwork burden of the

collection of information contained in

this proposed rule to the Office of

Information and Regulatory Affairs of

OMB, Washington, D.C. 20503

Attention: Desk Officer for Customs.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Requests for additional information

should be directed to C. Harvey Monk,

Jr., Bureau of the Census, Washington,

D.C. 20233, by telephone on (301) 457–

2255 or by fax on (301) 457–2645. For

information on the specific Customs

reporting requirements contact: J. Edgar

Nichols, U.S. Customs Service, Room

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Effective in January 1990, the United

States and Canada each replaced their

requirements for reporting export data

by agreeing to substitute exchanged

import information. This substitution of

exchanged import information allowed

the countries to eliminate the

requirements that exporters in both

countries provide separate export

information on the millions of

shipments crossing the U.S./Canada

border each year. A Memorandum of

Understanding (MOU) implementing

the exchange was signed by the United

States and Canada on July 29, 1987.

Under the terms of the MOU, the

United States and Canada agreed to

collect several new data elements on

their respective import records. These

elements while improving both

countries’ statistical data and allowing

elimination of export reporting are also

essential to the administration of the

North American Free Trade Agreement.

One of the data elements that the United

States agreed to collect is the Canadian

Province of Origin where the specific

goods exported to the United States

were produced. Census has attempted in

the past to derive this information from

related information now reported on

Customs entry records as part of the

required Identification of the Foreign

Manufacturer. The quality of this

derived information, however, has

proven unsatisfactory. In many cases the

Province currently reported does not

identify the location where the goods

were manufactured/assembled, mined,

grown, or otherwise produced. Instead,

it represents a corporate headquarters or

the location of the Canadian vendor.

Proposed Requirement

In order to comply with the MOU,

Census asks Customs to require the twoletter designation of the Canadian

Province of Origin to be reported on

U.S. entry summary records in lieu of

the Country of Origin. The Province of

Origin is defined as the province where

the exported goods were originally

manufactured/assembled, grown,

mined, or otherwise produced. For

goods manufactured/assembled in

Canada, with the exception of softwood

lumber, the Province of Origin would be

that in which the final manufacture/

assembly is performed prior to

exporting that product to the United

States. In cases where the Province in

which the merchandise was

manufactured/assembled, grown,

mined, or produced is unknown, the

Province in which the Canadian vendor

is located may be reported.

For all shipments of softwood lumber

products classified under U.S.

Harmonized System tariff items

4407.1000, 4409.1010, 4409.1090, or

4409.1020, the Census Bureau began,

effective April 5, 1996, to require

information on Canadian Province of

Manufacture. This requirement was

made to allow the United States to carry

out the requirements of an agreement

concluded with Canada on the amount

of softwood lumber exported to the

United States annually. Since Canadian

Province of Manufacture is already

required for these softwood lumber

products, the requirements proposed in

this notice do not apply.

The reporting of the Province of

Origin will apply to the paper as well

as Automated Broker Interface (ABI)

entry summaries. For those reporting on

paper forms, the Province of Origin code

is to replace the Country of Origin on

the Customs Form (CF) 7501 Summary

Entry form. This requirement would

apply only for imports with Country of

Origin from Canada.

All electronic ABI Entry Summaries

for imports originating in Canada would

also require the new Canadian Province

of Origin code to be reported in lieu of

the Country of Origin. Currently the

Country of Origin is transmitted for each

entry summary line item in the A40

record positions 6–7.

Proposed Collection

For imports from Canada only, the

Province of Origin Code replaces

Country of Origin on the CF 7501,

Summary Entry form and in positions

6–7 of the ABI A40 electronic record.
