of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of

Pursuant to additional U.S. Note 8 to
chapter 17 of the HTS, the United States
also maintains a tariff-rate quota for
certain sugar-containing products.
Section 404(d)(3) of the Uruguay
Round Agreements Act (19 U.S.C.
3601(d)(3)) authorizes the President to

These allocations are based on the
countries’ historical shipments to the
United States. The allocations of the raw
cane sugar tariff-rate quota to countries
that are net importers of sugar are
conditioned on receipt of the
appropriate verifications of origin.
This allocation includes the following
minimum quota-holding countries:
Congo, Cote d’Ivoire, Gabon, Haiti,
Madagascar, Papua New Guinea,
Paraguay, St. Kitts & Nevis, and
Uruguay.
The in-quota quantity of the tariff-rate
quota for refined sugar for the period
October 1, 2005–September 30, 2006,
has been established by the Secretary of
Agriculture at 49,000 metric tons, raw
value (54,013 short tons), of which the
Secretary has reserved 28,656 metric
tons (31,588 short tons) for specialty
sugars. Of the quantity not reserved for
specialty sugars, a total of 10,300 metric
tons (11,354 short tons) is being
allocated to Canada and 2,954 metric
tons (3,256 short tons) is being allocated
to Mexico. The remaining 7,090 metric
tons (7,815 short tons) of the in-quota
quantity not reserved for specialty
sugars may be supplied by any country
on a first-come, first-served basis,
subject to any other provision of law.
The 28,656 metric tons (31,588 short
PO 00000
Frm 00121
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
tons) reserved for specialty sugars is
also not being allocated among
supplying countries and is available on
a first-come, first-served basis, subject to
any other provision of law.
In 1995, the United States Trade
Representative determined, pursuant to
15 CFR 2011.110(a), to suspend the
certificate of quota eligibility (CQE)
requirements for sugar entering under
the tariff-rate quota for refined sugar.
Based on the factors set out in 15 CFR
2011.110(b), I have determined to
reinstate the CQE requirements for sugar
entering under the tariff-rate quota for
refined sugar that is the product of a
country that has been allocated a share
of the tariff-rate quota for refined sugar.
Accordingly, pursuant to 15 CFR
2011.110(b), effective October 1, 2005,
the provisions of subpart A of part 2011
of title 15 of the Code of Federal
Regulations are reinstated with respect
to sugar entering under the tariff-rate
quota for refined sugar that is the
product of a country that has been
allocated a share of the tariff-rate quota
for refined sugar.
With respect to the tariff-rate quota of
64,709 metric tons (71,329 short tons)
for certain sugar-containing products
maintained pursuant to additional U.S.
Note 8 to chapter 17 of the HTS, 59,250
metric tons (65,312 short tons) of sugarcontaining products is being allocated to
Canada. The remaining in-quota
quantity for this tariff-rate quota is
available to other countries on a firstcome, first-served basis.
Conversion factor: 1 metric ton =
1.10231125 short tons.
Rob Portman,
United States Trade Representative.
