In letters dated July 21, 1997, April 13, 2005 and October 6, 2005, TDCC provided final radiological status surveys to demonstrate that the site met the license termination criteria in 10 CFR part 20 subpart E.

The staff prepared a Safety Evaluation Report (SER) (ADAMS ML062500107) to support its termination of TDCC’s Bay City license. II.

[FR Doc. 06–8997 Filed 10–27–06; 11:01 am] BILLING CODE 7590–01–M OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES TRADE REPRESENTATIVE Generalized System of Preferences (GSP): Import Statistics Relating to Competitive Need Limitations; 2006 Annual GSP Review; Petitions Requesting CNL Waivers Office of the United States Trade Representative. ACTION: Notice. cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public of the availability of eight-month 2006 import statistics relating to competitive need limitations (CNLs) under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program. The eightmonth 2006 import statistics identify those articles for which the 2006 trade levels may exceed statutory CNLs. The VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:25 Oct 30, 2006 Jkt 211001 interim trade data is available at: https://www.ustr.gov/ Trade_Development/ Preference_Programs/GSP/ Section_Index.html. As previously announced in the Federal Register (71 FR 37129 (June 29, 2006)), the deadline for submission of product petitions to waive the CNLs for individual beneficiary developing countries with respect to GSP-eligible articles is 5 p.m., November 17, 2006. Petitions must conform to the requirements as set forth in the June 29, 2006 Federal Register notice. Public comments regarding possible de minimis waivers and possible GSP redesignations will be requested in a subsequent Federal Register notice. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Contact the GSP Subcommittee of the Trade Policy Staff Committee, Office of the United States Trade Representative, 1724 F Street, NW., Room F–220, Washington, DC 20508. The telephone number is (202) 395–6971. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: of an eligible article from a BDC ceased to receive duty-free treatment due to exceeding a CNL in a prior year, the President may redesignate such an article for duty free treatment if imports in the most recently completed year did not exceed the CNLs. Comments on de minimis waivers and redesignations will be requested after publication of a separate Federal Register notice. Section 505 of the 1974 Act states that duty-free treatment provided under the GSP shall not remain in effect after December 31, 2006. If the program expires without reauthorization on that date, the 2006 Annual GSP review will be conducted according to a schedule to be issued in the Federal Register, if and when the program is reauthorized. I. Competitive Need Limitations II. Implementation of Competitive Need Limitations Exclusions from GSP duty-free treatment where CNLs have been exceeded will be effective July 1, 2007, unless previously granted a waiver by the President. CNL exclusions will be based on full 2006 calendar year import statistics. 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 ($125 million for 2006), 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. 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 ($18 million for 2006). Further, under section 503(c)(2)(C) of the 1974 Act, if imports III. Interim 2006 Import Statistics In order to provide advance notice of articles that may exceed the CNLs for 2006, ‘‘Interim 2006 Import Statistics Relating to Competitive Need Limitations’’ that cover the first eight months of 2006 can be viewed at: https://www.ustr.gov/ Trade_Development/ Preference_Program/GSP/ Section_Index.html. If unable to access these statistics, contact the GSP Subcommittee of the Trade Policy Staff Committee, which will make alternate arrangements to provide the lists. Full calendar-year 2006 data for individual tariff subheadings will be available in February 2007 on the Web site of the U.S. International Trade Commission at https://dataweb.usitc.gov/. The Interim 2006 Statistics are organized to show, for each article, the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheading and BDC of origin, the value of imports of the article for the first eight months of 2006, and the percentage of total imports of that article from all countries. The list includes the GSP-eligible articles from BDCs that have already exceeded the CNLs by their import levels amounting to more than $125 million, or by an amount greater than 50% of the total value of U.S. imports of that product in 2006. The list also includes GSP-eligible articles that, based upon interim eight-month 2006 data, exceed $95 million dollars, or an amount greater than 42 percent of the PO 00000 Frm 00056 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\31OCN1.SGM 31OCN1
