2008 import statistics and to announce 

that the Office of the United States 

Trade Representative (USTR) will not be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Competitive Need Limitations 

The GSP program provides for the 

duty-free importation of designated 

articles when imported from designated 

beneficiary developing countries 

(BDCs). The GSP program is authorized 

by title V of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 

U.S.C. 2461, et seq. ), as amended (the 

‘‘1974 Act’’), and is implemented in 

accordance with Executive Order 11888 

of November 24, 1975, as modified by 

subsequent Executive Orders and 

Presidential Proclamations. 

Section 503(c)(2)(A) of the 1974 Act 

sets out the two competitive need 

limitations (CNLs). When the President 

determines that a BDC exported to the 

United States during a calendar year 

either: (1) A quantity of a GSP-eligible 

article having a value in excess of the 

applicable amount for that year ($135 

million for 2008), or (2) a quantity of a 

GSP-eligible article having a value equal 

to or greater than 50 percent of the value 

of total U.S. imports of the article from 

all countries (the ‘‘50 percent CNL’’), the 

President must terminate GSP duty-free 

treatment for that article from that BDC 

by no later than July 1 of the next 

calendar year. However, Section 503(d) 

of the 1974 Act sets forth the criteria 

under which the President may grant a 

waiver of the CNL for articles imported 

from specific BDCs. Product petitions 

requesting CNL waivers for GSP-eligible 

articles from beneficiary developing 

countries that exceed the CNLs in 2008 

must be filed in the 2008 Annual 

Review. 

Under section 503(c)(2)(F) of the 1974 

Act, the President may also waive the 50 

percent CNL with respect to an eligible 

article imported from a BDC if the value 

of total imports of that article from all 

countries during the calendar year did 

not exceed the applicable de minimis 

amount for that year. Comments on de 

minimis waivers will be requested after 

publication of a separate Federal 

Register notice in February 2008. 

II. Implementation of Competitive Need 

Limitations 

Exclusions from GSP duty-free 

treatment where CNLs have been 

exceeded will be effective July 1, 2009, 

unless granted a waiver before that date 

by the President. CNL exclusions will be 

based on full calendar-year 2008 import 

statistics. Full calendar-year 2008 data 

for individual tariff subheadings will be 

available in February 2009 on the Web 

site of the U.S. International Trade 

Commission at http://dataweb.usitc. 

gov/. 

III. 2008 Competitive Need Limitations 

Petition Procedure 

A. Eight Month Import Data and 

Announcement That ‘‘Warning List’’ 

Will Not Be Published 

For the purposes of the Competitive 

Need Limitations, the Office of the 

United States Trade Representative 

(USTR) will not be publishing a 

‘‘warning list’’ of products that may 

exceed statutory competitive need 

limitations (CNLs). Each interested 

party is responsible for conductingits 

own review of 2008 import data with 

regard to the possible application of 

GSP CNLs. This information can be 

found on the U.S. International Trade 

Commission (USITC) Web site (http:// 

dataweb.usitc.gov). Interested parties, 

including foreign governments, may 

submit petitions to waive the 

‘‘competitive need limitations’’ for 

individual beneficiary developing 

countries with respect to specific GSPeligible articles (these limits do not 

apply to either least-developed 

beneficiary developing countries or 

AGOA beneficiary sub-Saharan African 

countries). As announced in the May 15, 

2008, Federal Register notice, petitions 

requesting CNL waivers must be 

received by the GSP Subcommittee of 

the Trade Policy Staff Committee no 

later than 5 p.m. on Thursday, 

November 13, 2008, in order to be 

considered in the 2008 Annual Review. 

Petitions submitted after the deadline 

will not be considered for review. The 

list of product petitions accepted for 

review will be announced in the 

Federal Register at a later date. 

As specified in 15 CFR 2007.1, all 

petitions requesting CNL waivers for 

GSP-eligible articles from beneficiary 

developing countries must include a 

detailed description of the product and 
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 201 / Thursday, October 16, 2008 / Notices 61445

number of the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

under which the product is classified. 

The HTSUS number for the relevant 

product should be provided at the 8- 

digit level. Further, petitions requesting 

CNL waivers for GSP-eligible articles 

that exceed the CNLs in 2008 must be 

filed in the 2008 Annual Review. In 

order to allow petitioners an 

opportunity to review additional 2008 

U.S. import statistics, these petitions 

may be filed after Wednesday, June 18, 

2008, but must be received on or before 

Thursday, November 13, 2008, in order 

to be considered in the 2008 Annual 

Review. Copies will be made available 

for public inspection after the November 

13, 2008, deadline. 

B. Requirements for Submissions 

Petitions must be submitted, in 

English, to the Chairman of the GSP 

Subcommittee of the Trade Policy Staff 

Committee (TPSC) by the deadline set 

forth in this notice. 

Any person or party making a 

submission is strongly advised to review 

the GSP regulations and GSP Guidebook 

(available at: http://www.ustr.gov/ 

Trade_Development/ 

Preference_Programs/GSP/ 

General_GSP_Program_Information/ 

Section_Index.html). Petitions with 

respect to waivers of the ‘‘competitive 

need limitations’’ must meet the 

relevant information requirements listed 

in sections 2007.1 (a) and (c) of the GSP 

regulations. Furthermore, interested 

parties submitting petitions that request 

action with respect to specific products 

should list on the first page of the 

petition the following information after 

typing ‘‘2008 Annual GSP Review’’: (1) 

The requested action to waive the 

competitive need limits; (2) the HTSUS 

8-digit subheading in which the product 

is classified; and (3) the beneficiary 

developing country. 

In order to facilitate prompt 

consideration of submissions, USTR 

requires the petitions to be set out in 

digital files attached to e-mails 

transmitted to the following address: 

FR0807@ustr.eop.gov (Note: The digit 

before the number ‘‘8’’ in the e-mail 

address is the number ‘‘zero’’ and not a 

letter.) If you are unable to provide 

submissions by e-mail, please contact 

Regina Teeter at USTR’s GSP Office at 

(202) 395–6971 to arrange for an 

alternative method of transmission. For 

security reasons, hand-delivered 

submissions will not be accepted. Email submissions should be single copy 

transmissions in English with the total 

submission including attachments not 

to exceed 30 single-spaced standard 

letter sized pages in 12-point type and 

three megabytes as a digital file attached 

to an e-mail transmission. E-mails 

should use the following subject line: 

‘‘2008 Annual GSP Review-CNLW 

Petition.’’ The transmittal message or 

cover letter accompanying a submission 

must be set out exclusively in the digital 

file attached to the e-mail—not in the 

message portion of the e-mail—and 

must include the sender’s name, 

organization name, address, telephone 

and fax numbers, and e-mail address. 

Digital files must be submitted in one 

of the following formats: WordPerfect 

(‘‘.WPD’’), MSWord (‘‘.DOC’’), text 

(‘‘.TXT’’), or Adobe (‘‘PDF’’) files. 

Documents cannot be submitted as

embedded images (for example, ‘‘.JPG’’, 

‘‘.TIF’’, ‘‘.BMP’’, or ‘‘.GIF’’). Spreadsheet 

data may be submitted as Excel files, 

formatted for printing on 81⁄2 x 11 inch 

paper. To the extent possible, any data 

accompanying the submission should be 

included in the same file as the 

submission itself, and not in a separate 

file. 

If the submission contains business 

confidential information that the 

submitter wishes to protect from public 

disclosure, the confidential version 

must be marked ‘‘BUSINESS 

CONFIDENTIAL’’ at the top and bottom 

of each page. In addition, the 

submission must be accompanied by a 

non-confidential version that indicates, 

with asterisks, where confidential 

information was redacted or deleted. 

The top and bottom of each page of the 

non-confidential version must be 

marked either ‘‘PUBLIC VERSION’’ or 

‘‘NON-CONFIDENTIAL’’. Business 

confidential comments that are 

submitted without the required 

markings or are not accompanied by a 

properly marked non-confidential 

version as set forth above may not be 

accepted or may be treated as public 

documents. 

The digital file name assigned to any 

business confidential version of a 

submission should begin with the 

characters ‘‘BC-’’, and the file name of 

the public version should begin with the 

characters ‘‘P-’’. The ‘‘P-’’ or ‘‘BC-’’ 

should be followed by the name of the 

person (government, company, union, 

association, etc.) making the 

submission. 

Public versions of all documents in 

response to this notice will be available 

for review approximately one week after 

the due date by appointment in the 

USTR public reading room, 1724 F 

Street, NW., Washington, DC.
