activity in the area; and 
(2) proposals for developing increased linkages between the 
tourism industry and local industries in the region such as the 
agrobusiness. 
SEC. 233. PILOT PRECLEARANCE PROGRAM. 
19 USC 2071 
(a) ESTABLISHMENT OF PROGRAM.—Subject to subsection (b), the 
Commissioner of Customs shall carry out, during fiscal years 1991 
and 1992, preclearance operations at a facility of the United States 
Customs Service in a country within the Caribbean Basin which the 
Commissioner of Customs considers appropriate for testing the 
extent to which the availability of preclearance operations can assist 
in the development of tourism. 
O

)
) RESTRICTIONS REGARDING PROGRAM.— 
(1) The Commissioner of Customs may not consider a country 
within the Caribbean Basin to be appropriate for the testing 
referred to in subsection (a) if preclearance operations are 
currently carried out by the United States Customs Service in 
that country. 
(2) Preclearance operations may not be commenced in the 
country selected for testing under subsection (a) unless the 
Commissioner of Customs and the Commissioner of Immigra-
tion and Naturalization jointly certify that— 
(A) there exists a bilateral agreement between the United 
States Government and the government of such country 
which protects the interests of the United States and af-

fords diplomatic protection to United States employees 
working at the preclearance location; 
(B) the facilities at the preclearance location conform to 
Federal Inspection Services standards and are suitable for 
the duties to be performed therein; 
(C) there is adequate security around the structure used 
for the reception of international arrivals; 
(D) the government of such country grants the United 
States Customs Service and the United States Immigration 
and Naturalization Service appropriate search, seizure, and 
arrest authority; and 
(E) United States employees and their families will not be 
subject to fear of reprisal, acts of terrorism, and threats of 
intimidation. 
(3) In determining the country in which to establish the 
operation described in paragraph (1), the Commissioner of Cus-
toms and the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization 
shall first determine the viability of establishing such oper-
ations in either Aruba or Jamaica. If the Commissioners deter-
mine, after full consultation with the governments of such 
countries, that it is not viable to establish pre-clearance oper-
ations in either Aruba or Jamaica, they shall so report to the 
Committee on Finance of the Senate and the Committee on 
Ways and Means of the House of Representatives, including an 
explanation of how this determination was reached. Such report 
shall be submitted to those Committees within six months after 
the date of the enactment of this Act. Following the submission 
of such a report, the Commissioners shall take all necessary 
steps, consistent with the requirements of this section, to estab-
lish such operations in another country. 
(c) REPORT.—As soon as practicable after September 30, 1992, the 
Commissioner of Customs shall submit to the Congress a report 
regarding the preclearance operations program carried out under 
subsection (a). The report shall include— 
(1) a summary of the preclearance operations, including the 
number of individuals processed, any administrative problems 
encountered, and cost of the operations; 
(2) an evaluation of the extent to which the preclearance 
operations contributed to— 
(A) the stimulation of the tourism industry of the country 
concerned, and 
(B) expedited customs processing at United States ports of 
entry; 
(3) the opinion of the Commissioner of Customs regarding the 
efficacy of extending preclearance operations to other countries 
within the Caribbean Basin that are developing tourism indus-
tries, and if the opinion is affirmative, the identity of those 
countries to which such operations should be extended and the 
estimated costs and results of such extensions; and 
(4) such other matters that the Commissioner of Customs 
considers relevant.

TRADE 
BENEFITS 
FOR 
NICARAGUA. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the President is President of U.S. 
authorized to designate Nicaragua as a beneficiary developing coun-
try for the purposes of title V of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, 
and as a beneficiary country under the Caribbean Basin Economic 
Recovery Act, and any such designation may remain effective for 
the duration of the calendar year 1990. 
SEC. 242. AGRICULTURAL INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT. 
It is the sense of Congress that in order to facilitate trade with, 
and the economic development of, the countries designated as bene-
ficiary countries under the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act, 
the Secretary of Agriculture should, in consultation with the Agri-
business Promotion Council, coordinate with the Agency for Inter-
national Development the development of programs to encourage 
improvements in the transportation and cargo handling infrastruc-
ture in these countries for the purpose of improving agricultural 
trade between these countries and the United States. Such programs 
should focus on improving distribution of agricultural commodities 
and products in these countries, and the phj^osanitary institutions, 
quarantine capabilities, and pesticide regulations of these countries 
regarding agricultural commodities and products.

EXTENSION 
OF 
TRADE 
BENEFITS 
TO 
THE 
ANDEAN 
REGION. 
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds that: 
(1) United States antinarcotics policy places a high priority on 
assisting the nations of the Andean region of South America, 
the source of 100 percent of the world's supply of cocaine. 
(2) The President and Congress have recognized that United 
States trade and economic policies play an important role in the 
overall United States antidrug strategy in the Andes. 
(3) The extension of special trade preferences for articles from 
the Andean region would help revitalize the national economies 
of the Andes and further United States antinarcotics policy in 
the region. 
G)) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—The Congress urges the President to— 
(1) review the merits of extending the benefits provided under 
the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act to the Andean 
region; and 
(2) continue to explore additional mechanisms to expand 
trade opportunities for the Andean region, and report to Con-
gress in a regular and timely fashion on the result of this 
review.

SEC. 488. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES. 
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress makes the following findings: 
(1) Timber is essential to the United States. 
(2) Forests, forest resources, and the forest environment are 
exhaustible natural resources that require efficient and effec-
tive conservation efforts. 
(3) In the interest of conserving those resources, the United 
States has set aside millions of acres of otherwise harvestable 
timberlands in the western United States, representing well 
over 100,000,000,000 board feet of otherwise harvestable timber. 
(4) In recent years, administrative, statutory, or judicial 
action has been taken to set aside an increased amount of 
otherwise harvestable timberlands for conservation purposes. 
(5) In the next few months and years, additional amounts of 
otherwise harvestable timberlands may be set aside for con-
servation purposes, pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 
1973, the National Forest Management Act of 1976, or other 
expected statutory, administrative, and judicial actions.

(6) There is evidence of a shortfall in the supply of 
unprocessed timber in the western United States. 
(7) There is reason to believe that any shortfsdl which may 
already exist may worsen unless action is taken. 
(8) In conjunction with the broad conservation actions 
expected in the next few months and years, conservation action 
is necessary with respect to exports of unprocessed timber. 
(b) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this title are— 
(1) to promote the conservation of forest resources in conjunc-
tion with State and Federal resources management plans, and 
other actions or decisions, affecting the use of forest resources;

of forest resources or products in short supply in the western 
United States; 
(3) to take action necessary, to meet the goals of Article XI 
2.(a) of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, to ensure 
sufficient supplies of certain forest resources or products which 
are essential to the United States; 
(4) to continue and refine the existing Federal policy of 
restricting the export of unprocessed timber harvested from 
Federal lands in the western United States; and 
(5) to effect measures aimed at meeting these objectives in 
conformity with the obligations of the United States under the

and (b) shall not apply with respect to the acquisition of un-
processed timber originating from Federal lands within a 
sourcing area west of the 100th meridian in the contiguous 48 
States approved by the Secretary concerned under this subsec-
tion by a person who— 
(A) in the previous 24 months, has not exported un-
processed timber originating from private lands within the 
sourcing area; and 
(B) during the period in which such approval is in effect, 
does not export unprocessed timber originating from pri-
vate lands within the sourcing area. 
The Secretary concerned may waive the 24-month requirement 
set forth in subparagraph (A) for any person who, within 3 
months after the date of the enactment of this Act, certifies 
that, within 6 months after such date, such person will, for a 
period of not less than 3 years, cease exporting unprocessed 
timber originating from private lands within the sourcing area. 
(2) REQUIREMENTS FOR APPUCATION.—The Secretaries con-
cerned shall, not later than 3 months after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, prescribe procedures to be used by a 
person applying for approval of a sourcing area under para-
graph (1). Such procedures shall require, at a minimum, the 
applicant to provide— 
(A) information regarding the location of private lands 
from which such person has, within the previous year, 
harvested or otherwise acquired unprocessed timber which 
has been exported from the United States; and 
(B) information regarding the location of each timber 
manufacturing facility owned or operated by such person 
within the proposed sourcing area boundaries at which the 
104 STAT. 718 
PUBLIC LAW 101-382—AUG. 20, 1990 
applicant proposes to process timber originating from Fed-
eral lands. 
The prohibition contained in subsection (a) shall not apply to a 
person before the date which is 1 month after the procedures 
referred to in this paragraph are prescribed. With respect to 
any person who submits an application in accordance with such 
procedures by the end of the time period set forth in the 
preceding sentence, the prohibition contained in subsection (a) 
shall not apply to such person before the date on which the 
Secretary concerned approves or disapproves such application. 
(3) GRANT OF APPROVAL.—For each applicant, the Secretary 
concerned shall, on the record and after an opportunity for a 
hearing, not later than 4 months after receipt of the application 
for a sourcing area, either approve or disapprove the applica-
tion. The Secretary concerned may approve such application 
only if the Secretary determines that the area that is the 
subject of the application, in which the timber manufacturing 
facilities at which the applicant desires to process timber origi-
nating from Federal lands are located, is geographically and 
economically separate from any geographic area from which 
that person harvests for export any unprocessed timber origi-
nating from private lands. In making a determination referred 
to in this paragraph, the Secretary concerned shall consider 
equally the timber purchasing patterns, on private and Federal 
lands, of the applicant as well as other persons in the same local 
vicinity as the applicant, and the relative similarity of such 
purchasing patterns. 
(4) DENIAL OF APPUCATION.—(A) Subject to subparagraph (B), 
and notwithstanding any other provision of law, in the 9-month 
period after receiving disapproval of an application submitted 
pursuant to this subsection, the applicant may purchase un-
processed timber originating from Federal lands in the area 
which is the subject of the application in an amount not to 
exceed 75 percent of the annual average of such person's pur-
chases of unprocessed timber originating from Federal lands in 
the same area during the 5 full fiscal years immediately prior to 
submission of the application. In the subsequent 6-month 
period, such person may purchase' not more than 25 percent of 
such annual average, after which time the prohibitions con-
tained in subsection (a) shall fully apply. 
(B) If a person referred to in subparagraph (A) certifies to the 
Secretary concerned, within 90 days after receiving disapproval 
of such application, that such person shall, within 15 months 
after such disapproval, cease the export of unprocessed timber 
originating from private lands from the geographic area deter-
mined by the Secretary for which the application would have 
been approved, such person may continue to purchase un-
processed timber originating from Federal lands in the area 
which is the subject of the application, without being subject to 
the restrictions of subparagraph (A), except that such purchases 
during that 15-month period may not exceed 125 percent of the 
emnual average of such person's purchases of unprocessed 
timber originating from Federal lands in the same area during 
the 5 full fiscal years immediately prior to submission of the 
application which was denied. 
(C) Any person to whom subparagraph (B) applies may not, 
during the 15-month period after the person's application for 
PUBLIC LAW 101-382—AUG. 20, 1990 
104 STAT. 719 
sourcing area boundaries is denied, export unprocessed timber 
originating from private lands in the geographic area deter-
mined by the Secretary concerned for which the application 
would have been approved in amounts that exceed 125 percent 
of the annual average of such person's exports of unprocessed 
timber from such private lands during the 5 full fiscal years 
immediately prior to submission of the application. 
(5) REVIEW OF DETERMINATIONS.—Determinations made under 
paragraph (3) shall be reviewed, in accordsmce with the proce-

apply: 
(A) The Secretary of Commerce shall issue an order 
referred to in subsection (a) not later than 21 days after the 
date of the enactment of this Act. Such order shall cover a 
period beginning 120 days after the issuance of such an 
order, or January 1, 1991, whichever is earlier, and shall 
extend to December 31, 1991. Such order shall prohibit the

(3) REPORT TO CONGRESS.—Not later than June 1, 1995, the 
Secretary of Commerce, in conjunction with the Secretaries of 
Agriculture and Interior, shall issue a report to the Congress on 
the effects of the reallocation, as a result of the enactment of 
this title, of public lands timber resources to the domestic 
timber processing sector, the ability of the domestic timber 
processing sector to meet domestic demand for forest products, 
the volume of transshipment of timber originating from public 
lands across State borders, the effectiveness of rules issued and 
administered by States pursuant to this title, and trends in 
growth and productivity in the domestic timber processing 
sector. 
(c) BASIS FOR INCREASE IN VOLUME PROHIBITED FROM EXPORT.— 
The Secretary 
of Commerce may increase the amount of 
unprocessed timber to be prohibited from export above the mini-
mum amount specified in subsection (bX2) (B) and (C), based on a 
determination that the purposes of this title have not been ade-

sider— 
(1) actions or decisions taken, for the purpose of conserving or 
protecting exhaustible natural resources in the United States, 
I which have affected the use or availability of forest products; 
(2) whether the volume of timber from public lands that is 
under contract has increased or decreased by an amount greater 
than 20 percent within the previous 12 months; and 
(3) the probable effects of unprocessed timber exports on the 
ability of timber mills to acquire unprocessed timber. 
(d) ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS.— 
(1) DELAY OF SECRETARY'S ORDER.—In the event that any order 
of the Secretary of Commerce under subsection (a) or its 
, ; implementation is delayed for any reason, the prohibitions on 
exports under subsection (b) to which such order would apply 
shall apply in the absence of such order. 
(2) ADMINISTRATION BY STATES.—Each State shall determine 
the species, grade, and geographic origin of unprocessed timber 
to be prohibited from export under subsection (b) and shall 
administer such prohibitions consistent with the intent of this 
title and ensure that the species, grades, and geographic origin 
of unprocessed timber prohibited from export is representative 
of the species, grades, and geographic origin of timber compris-
ing such State's total timber sales program. The State is 
authorized to cooperate with Federal and State agencies with 
appropriate jurisdiction to further the intent of this title. 
(3) STATE REGULATIONS.—(A) Except for States with annual 
. 
sales of 400,000,000 board feet or less upon the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Governor of each State to which this 
title applies, or such other State official as the Governor may 
designate, shall, within 120 days after the date of the enactment 
of this Act, issue regulations to carry out the purposes of this 
section, the promulgation of which shall be consistent with 
section 553 of title 5, United States Code. Such regulations in 
each State shall remain in effect until such time as the legisla-
ture of that State enacts such requirements as it deems appro-
priate to carry out this section. Before issuing such regulations. 
PUBLIC LAW 101-382—AUG. 20, 1990 
104 STAT. 721 
the Governor shall enter into formal consultation, concerning 
such regulations, with appropriate State officials and with a 
State Board of Natural Resources where such a board exists. 
When formulating regulations under this paragraph, the Gov-
ernor shall take into account the intent of this title to effect a 
net increase in domestic processing of timber harvested from

400,000,000 board feet or less upon the date of the enactment of 
this Act, or such other State official as the Governor may 
designate, shall, within 120 days after the date of the enactment 
of this Act, issue regulations to carry out the purposes of this 
section. Until such regulations are issued in a State, the prohibi-
tions contained in subsections (a) and (b) of section 490 shall 
apply to unprocessed timber originating from public lands in 
that State to the same extent as such prohibitions apply to 
unprocessed timber originating from Federal lands, except that 
the provisions of subsection (c) of such section shall not apply. 
(4) PRIOR CONTRACTS.—Nothing in this section shall apply to 
any contract for the purchase of unprocessed timber from public 
lands entered into before the effective date of a Secretary's

settlement proceeding provided under any other trade agreement 
finds, that the provisions of this section are in violation of, or 
inconsistent with. United States obligations under that trade 
agreement. 
(f) REMOVAL OR MODIFICATIONS OF STATE RESTRICTIONS.—Based 
upon a determination that it is in the national economic interest, 
the President may remove or modify any prohibition on exports 
from public lands in a State if that State petitions the President to 
remove or modify such prohibition. 
(g) EFFECT OF PRIOR FEDERAL LAW.—No provision of Federal law 
which imposes requirements with respect to the generation of reve-
nue from State timberlands and was enacted before the enactment 
of this Act shall be construed to invalidate, supersede, or otherwise 
affect any action of a State or political subdivision of a State 
pursuant to this title. 
(h) SURPLUS TIMBER.—The prohibitions on exports contained in 
orders of the Secretary of Commerce issued under subsection (a) 
shall not apply to specific quantities of grades and species of 
unprocessed timber originating from public lands which the Sec-
retary concerned determines by rule to be surplus to the needs of 
timber manufacturing facilities in the United States. Any such 
determination may, by rule, be withdrawn by the Secretary con-
cerned if the Secretary determines that the affected timber is no 
longer surplus to the needs of timber manufacturing facilities in the 
United States. 
104 STAT. 722

implementation of this title, that the prohibitions on exports 
required by subsection (a) no longer promote the purposes of this 
title, then the President may suspend such prohibitions, except that 
such suspension shall not take effect until 90 days after the Presi-
dent notifies the Congress of such finding.

be construed to limit the authority of the President or the United 
States Trade Representative to take action authorized by law to 
respond appropriately to any measures taken by a foreign govern-
ment in connection with this title.
