(a) IN GENERAL.—A request under this subtitle for 
the purpose of adjusting to the obligations of the United 
States under the Agreement may be filed with the Presi-
dent by an interested party. Upon the filing of a request, 
the President shall review the request to determine, from
information presented in the request, whether to com-
mence consideration of the request. 
(b) PUBLICATION OF REQUEST.—If the President de-
termines that the request under subsection (a) provides

SEC. 322. DETERMINATION AND PROVISION OF RELIEF. 
(a) DETERMINATION.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—If a positive determination is 
made under section 321(b), the President shall de-
termine whether, as a result of the reduction or 
elimination of a duty under the Agreement, a Bah-
raini textile or apparel article is being imported into 
the United States in such increased quantities, in 
absolute terms or relative to the domestic market for 
that article, and under such conditions as to cause 
serious damage, or actual threat thereof, to a domes-
tic industry producing an article that is like, or di-
rectly competitive with, the imported article.
(2) SERIOUS
DAMAGE.—In making a deter-
mination under paragraph (1), the President— 
(A) shall examine the effect of increased 
imports on the domestic industry, as reflected 
in changes in such relevant economic factors as 
output, productivity, utilization of capacity, in-
ventories, market share, exports, wages, em-
ployment, domestic prices, profits, and invest-
ment, none of which is necessarily decisive; and 
(B) shall not consider changes in tech-
nology or consumer preference as factors sup-
porting a determination of serious damage or 
actual threat thereof. 
(b) PROVISION OF RELIEF.— 
(1) IN
GENERAL.—If a determination under 
subsection (a) is affirmative, the President may pro-
vide relief from imports of the article that is the 
subject of such determination, as described in para-
graph (2), to the extent that the President deter-
mines necessary to remedy or prevent the serious 
damage and to facilitate adjustment by the domestic 
industry to import competition. 
(2) NATURE OF RELIEF.—The relief that the 
President is authorized to provide under this sub-
section with respect to imports of an article is an in-
crease in the rate of duty imposed on the article to 
a level that does not exceed the lesser of— 
(A) the column 1 general rate of duty im-
posed under the HTS on like articles at the 
time the import relief is provided; or 
(B) the column 1 general rate of duty im-
posed under the HTS on like articles on the 
day before the date on which the Agreement en-
ters into force. 
SEC. 323. PERIOD OF RELIEF. 
(a) IN GENERAL.—Subject to subsection (b), any im-
port relief that the President provides under subsection 
(b) of section 322 may not, in the aggregate, be in effect 
for more than 3 years. 
(b) EXTENSION.—If the initial period for any import 
relief provided under section 322 is less than 3 years, the 
President may extend the effective period of any import 
relief provided under that section, subject to the limitation 
set forth in subsection (a), if the President determines 
that— 
(1) the import relief continues to be necessary 
to remedy or prevent serious damage and to facili-
tate adjustment by the domestic industry to import 
competition; and
(2) there is evidence that the industry is mak-
ing a positive adjustment to import competition. 
SEC. 324. ARTICLES EXEMPT FROM RELIEF. 
The President may not provide import relief under 
this subtitle with respect to any article if—

under this subtitle after the date on which the 
Agreement enters into force; or 
(2) the article is subject to import relief under 
chapter 1 of title II of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 
U.S.C. 2251 et seq.). 
SEC. 325. RATE AFTER TERMINATION OF IMPORT RELIEF. 
When import relief under this subtitle is terminated 
with respect to an article, the rate of duty on that article 
shall be the rate that would have been in effect, but for 
the provision of such relief, on the date on which the relief 
terminates. 
SEC. 326. TERMINATION OF RELIEF AUTHORITY. 
No import relief may be provided under this subtitle 
with respect to any article after the date that is 10 years 
after the date on which duties on the article are eliminated 
pursuant to the Agreement. 
SEC. 327. COMPENSATION AUTHORITY. 
For purposes of section 123 of the Trade Act of 1974 
(19 U.S.C. 2133), any import relief provided by the Presi-
dent under this subtitle shall be treated as action taken 
under chapter 1 of title II of such Act. 
SEC. 328. CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION. 
The President may not release information that is 
submitted in a proceeding under this subtitle and that the 
President considers to be confidential business informa-
tion unless the party submitting the confidential business 
information had notice, at the time of submission, that 
such information would be released, or such party subse-
quently consents to the release of the information. To the 
extent a party submits confidential business information 
to the President in a proceeding under this subtitle, the 
party shall also submit a nonconfidential version of the 
information, in which the confidential business informa-
tion is summarized or, if necessary, deleted.
