SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Census Bureau plans to conduct
the 2008 New York City Housing and
Vacancy Survey (NYCHVS) under
contract for the City of New York. The
primary purpose of the survey is to
measure the rental vacancy rate which
is the primary factor in determining the
continuation of rent control regulations.
Other survey information is used by city
and state agencies for planning purposes
as well as the private sector for business
decisions. New York is required by law
to have such a survey conducted every
three years.
Information to be collected includes:
age, gender, race, Hispanic origin, and
relationship of all household members;
employment status, education level, and
income for persons aged 15 and above.
Owner/renter status (tenure) is asked for
all units, including vacants. Utility
costs, monthly rent, availability of
kitchen and bathroom facilities,
maintenance deficiencies, neighborhood
suitability, and other specific questions
about each unit such as number of
rooms and bedrooms are also asked. The
survey also poses a number of questions
relating to handicapped accessibility.
For vacant units, a shorter series of
similar questions is asked. Finally, all
vacant units and approximately five
percent of occupied units will be
reinterviewed for quality assurance
purposes.
The Census Bureau compiles the data
in tabular format based on specifications
of the survey sponsor, as well as nonidentifiable microdata. Both types of
data are also made available to the
general public through the Census
Internet site. Note, however, that the
sponsor receives the same data that are
made generally available so as not to
enable the identification of any sample
respondent or household.
II. Method of Collection
All information will be collected by
personal interview.
III. Data
OMB Number: 0607–0757.
Form Number: H–100, H–108
(reinterview).
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Households.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
16,500 occupied units. 1,500 vacant
units. 2,000 reinterviews.
Estimated Time Per Response: 30
minutes occupied. 10 minutes vacant.
10 minutes reinterview.

ycherry on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the
‘‘Related Persons’’).
On June 29, 2006, an order was issued
and on July 10, 2006, that order was
published in the Federal Register
imposing a fifty year denial of export
privileges against Ihsan Medhat Elashi
(a/k/a I. Ash, Haydee Herrera, Abdullah
Al Nasser, Samer Suwwan, and Sammy
Elashi), of Seagoville FCI, 2113 North
Highway, Seagoville, Texas, 75159 (71
FR 38843, July 10, 2006), resulting from
the decision and order issued by the
Under Secretary of Commerce for
Industry and Security after litigation of
administrative charges against Ihsan
Elashi related to his involvement in a
conspiracy to export items to Syria
without the required licenses and for his
involvement in a scheme to export items
to various destinations in violation of a
temporary denial of his export
privileges.
BIS has presented evidence that
indicates that the Related Persons are
related to Ihsan Elashi by ownership
control, position of responsibility,
affiliation, or other connection in the
conduct of trade or business, and that it
is necessary to add these persons to the
denial order against Ihsan Elashi in
order to avoid evasion of that order.
BIS has notified all Related Persons of
this action in accordance with the
requirements of Sections 766.23 and
766.5(b) of the Export Administration
Regulations and BIS received responses
from five of the Related Persons. Three

of the responses, those of Ghassan
Elashi, Majida Salem, and Fadwa
Elafrangi, failed to address whether they
are related to Ihsan Elashi by ownership
control, position of responsibility,
affiliation, or other connection in the
conduct of trade or business, and
whether it is necessary to add these
persons to the denial order against Ihsan
Elashi in order to avoid evasion of that
order. One of the responses, that of
Basman Elashi, noted that he was not
involved in any of the violations
committed by Ihsan Elashi in violation
of the temporary denial order against
Ihsan Elashi and Tetrabal Corporation.
The final response, that of Bayan Elashi,
denies complicity in the specific
transactions that were the subject of the
litigation in the Ihsan Elashi case. After
a review of the evidence and the
responses, I find that it is necessary to
make the Order imposed against Ihsan
Elashi applicable to the above-named
Related Persons to prevent the evasion
of that Order.
It Is Now Therefore Ordered

notice and opportunity for comments as

Seagoville, Texas, 75159, by affiliation,
ownership, control, or position of
responsibility in the conduct of trade or

[[Page 4237]]
entities, as persons related to Ihsan Elashi:
(1) Tetrabal Corporation, 605 Trail Lake Drive, Richardson, Texas

(12) Fadwa Elafrangi, 304 Town House Land, Richardson, Texas 75081.
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the ``Related Persons'').
On June 29, 2006, an order was issued and on July 10, 2006, that
order was published in the Federal Register imposing a fifty year
denial of export privileges against Ihsan Medhat Elashi (a/k/a I. Ash,
Haydee Herrera, Abdullah Al Nasser, Samer Suwwan, and Sammy Elashi), of
Seagoville FCI, 2113 North Highway, Seagoville, Texas, 75159 (71 FR
38843, July 10, 2006), resulting from the decision and order issued by
the Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security after
litigation of administrative charges against Ihsan Elashi related to
his involvement in a conspiracy to export items to Syria without the
required licenses and for his involvement in a scheme to export items
to various destinations in violation of a temporary denial of his
export privileges.
BIS has presented evidence that indicates that the Related Persons
are related to Ihsan Elashi by ownership control, position of
responsibility, affiliation, or other connection in the conduct of
trade or business, and that it is necessary to add these persons to the
denial order against Ihsan Elashi in order to avoid evasion of that
order.
BIS has notified all Related Persons of this action in accordance
with the requirements of Sections 766.23 and 766.5(b) of the Export
Administration Regulations and BIS received responses from five of the
Related Persons. Three of the responses, those of Ghassan Elashi,
Majida Salem, and Fadwa Elafrangi, failed to address whether they are
related to Ihsan Elashi by ownership control, position of
responsibility, affiliation, or other connection in the conduct of
trade or business, and whether it is necessary to add these persons to
the denial order against Ihsan Elashi in order to avoid evasion of that
order. One of the responses, that of Basman Elashi, noted that he was
not involved in any of the violations committed by Ihsan Elashi in
violation of the temporary denial order against Ihsan Elashi and
Tetrabal Corporation. The final response, that of Bayan Elashi, denies
complicity in the specific transactions that were the subject of the
litigation in the Ihsan Elashi case. After a review of the evidence and
the responses, I find that it is necessary to make the Order imposed
against Ihsan Elashi applicable to the above-named Related Persons to
prevent the evasion of that Order.
It Is Now Therefore Ordered
First, that having been provided notice and opportunity for
comments as provided in Section 766.23 of the Export Administration
