Revised Fiscal Year 2008 Tariff-Rate
Quota Allocations for Refined Sugar—
Re-allocation of Refined Sugar

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Office of the United
States Trade Representative (USTR) is
VerDate Aug<31>2005
16:45 Oct 29, 2008
Jkt 211001
providing notice of a revision in the
Fiscal Year (FY) 2008 Tariff-Rate Quota
(TRQ) allocation for imported refined
sugar for the period August 13 through
December 31, 2008. The USTR is reallocating the portion of the increase in
the refined sugar TRQ initially allocated
to Mexico on August 13, 2008 to the
global portion of the refined sugar TRQ,
subject to certain conditions.
DATES: Effective Date: October 30, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Inquiries may be mailed or
delivered to Leslie O’Connor, Director of
Agricultural Affairs, Office of
Agricultural Affairs, Office of the United
States Trade Representative, 600 17th
Street, NW., Washington, DC 20508.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Leslie O’Connor, Office of Agricultural
Affairs, telephone: 202–395–6127 or
facsimile: 202–395–4579.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to Additional U.S. Note 5 to Chapter 17
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTS), the United
States maintains a tariff-rate quota for
imports of refined sugar.
Section 404(d)(3) of the Uruguay
Round Agreements Act (19 U.S.C.
3601(d)(3)) authorizes the President to
allocate the in-quota quantity of a tariffrate quota for any agricultural product
among supplying countries or customs
areas. The President delegated this
authority to the USTR under
Presidential Proclamation 6763 (60 FR
1007). Pursuant to this Proclamation,
the USTR may modify previously
established allocations as he or she
finds appropriate in carrying out the
international rights and obligations of
the United States and promoting the
economic interests of the United States.
In response to tight market
conditions, on August 6, 2008, the
Secretary of Agriculture increased the
in-quota quantity of the tariff-rate quota
for refined sugar for FY 2008 by 272,155
metric tons raw value (MTRV)
(equivalent of 300,000 short tons raw
value) and extended the period in
which the sugar could be entered until
December 31, 2008.
On August 13, 2008, the USTR
allocated this TRQ volume, with a total
of 40,000 MTRV allocated to Canada,
68,278 MTRV allocated to Mexico, and
the remaining 163,877 MTRV allocated
to a global tariff-rate quota, which may
be supplied by any country on a firstcome, first-served basis, subject to any
other provision of law.
The U.S. market for sugar, particularly
for refined sugar, remains tight as
shown by the historically low 6.0
percent ending stocks-to-use ratio for FY
2009 projected in USDA’s October
World Agricultural Supply and Demand

Estimates report. As a result, the U.S.
Government consulted with the
Government of Mexico as to whether it
intends to fill its allocated portion of the
August 2008 increase. The Government
of Mexico has informed the Government
of the United States that Mexico will
continue to export sugar under the dutyfree access provided by the North
American Free Trade Agreement and
thus will not use the portion of the
WTO refined sugar TRQ allocated to
Mexico and it is available for reallocation by the United States.
The USTR hereby re-allocates that
portion, 68,278 MTRV, to the global
refined sugar TRQ, which may be
supplied by any country on a first-come,
first-served basis, subject to any other
provision of law. With this reallocation,
the global portion of the FY 2009
refined sugar tariff-rate quota now
amounts to 239,245 MTRV. No
certificate of quota eligibility is required
for sugar entering under this global
tariff-rate quota.
On October 27, 2008, the Secretary of
Agriculture, pursuant to his authority
under 15 CFR pt. 2011.110 to the set
terms, limitations, and conditions for
entry of refined sugar such as this,
determined that 28,278 MTRV of the reallocated portion of the refined sugar
TRQ shall be eligible to enter upon
publication of a Federal Register notice
by the USTR. Of the remainder, 10,000
MTRV may enter 14 days after
publication; 10,000 MTRV 28 days after
publication; 10,000 MTRV 42 days after
publication; and 10,000 MTRV 56 days
after publication. If any of these dates
fall on a weekend or Federal holiday,
the TRQ will open on the next business
day.

United States Trade Representative.
