-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Export Trading Company Affairs, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, has received an 
application to amend an Export Trade Certificate of Review 
(``Certificate''). This notice summarizes the proposed amendment and 
requests comments relevant to whether the Certificate should be issued.

Office of Competition and Economic Analysis, International Trade

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act 
of 1982 (15 U.S.C. 4001-21) authorizes the Secretary of Commerce to 
issue Export Trade Certificates of Review. An Export Trade Certificate 
of Review protects the holder and the members identified in the 
Certificate from State and Federal government antitrust actions and 
from private treble damage antitrust actions for the export conduct 
specified in the Certificate and carried out in compliance with its 
terms and conditions. Section 302(b)(1) of the Export Trading Company 
Act of 1982 and 15 CFR 325.6(a) require the Secretary to publish a 
notice in the Federal Register identifying the applicant and 
summarizing its proposed export conduct.

determination whether an amended Certificate should be issued. If the 
comments include any privileged or confidential business information,

(identified as such) should be included. Any comments not marked 
privileged or confidential business information will be deemed to be 
nonconfidential. An original and five (5) copies, plus two (2) copies 
of the nonconfidential version, should be submitted no later than 20 
days after the date of this notice to: Export Trading Company Affairs, 
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, Room 
7021X, Washington, DC 20230, or transmit by E-mail at 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#650a00110604250c11044b010a064b020a13"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="fa959f8e999bba938e9bd49e9599d49d958c">[email protected]</span></a>. Information submitted by any person is exempt from
