the alternator, which controls the
electrical output of the alternator to
match the electrical load of the vehicle.
The regulator is a key component of the
alternator. Should the alternator not
supply enough power, the battery will
get depleted and the vehicle will stop
operating. The regulator will be
assembled with fifty-two other
components, into the alternator in a
thirty-one step process which will take
approximately 169 minutes. Under the
described assembly process, the foreign
components lose their individual
identities and become an integral part of
a new article, the alternator, possessing
a new name, character and use. Based
upon the information before us, we find
that the components that are used to
manufacture the alternator, including
the regulator manufactured in the U.S.,
are substantially transformed as a result
of the assembly operations performed in
the U.S., and that the country of origin
of the alternator for government
procurement purposes is the U.S.
HOLDING:
The components that are used to
manufacture the alternator are
substantially transformed as a result of
the assembly operations performed in
the U.S. Therefore, the country of origin
of the alternator for government
procurement purposes is the U.S.
Notice of this final determination will
be given in the Federal Register, as
required by 19 C.F.R. § 177.29. Any
party-at-interest other than the party
which requested this final
determination may request, pursuant to
19 C.F.R. § 177.31, that CBP reexamine
the matter anew and issue a new final
determination. Pursuant to 19 C.F.R.
§ 177.30, any party-at-interest may,
within 30 days after publication of the
Federal Register notice referenced
above, seek judicial review of this final
determination before the Court of
International Trade.
Sincerely,
Sandra L. Bell

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 641 of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (19 U.S.C. 1641), provides
that a person (an individual,
corporation, association, or partnership)
must hold a valid customs broker’s
license and permit in order to transact
customs business on behalf of others,
sets forth standards for the issuance of
broker’s licenses and permits, and
provides for the taking of disciplinary
action against brokers that have engaged
in specified types of infractions. In the
case of an applicant for an individual
broker’s license, section 641 provides
that an examination may be conducted
to determine the applicant’s
qualifications for a license.
The regulations issued under the
authority of section 641 are set forth in
part 111 of title 19 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (19 CFR part 111).
Part 111 includes detailed rules
regarding the licensing of, and granting
of permits to, persons desiring to
transact customs business as customs
brokers. These rules include the
qualifications required of applicants and
the procedures for applying for licenses
and permits. Section 111.11 (19 CFR
111.11) sets forth the basic requirements
for a broker’s license and, in paragraph
(a)(4), provides that an applicant for an
individual broker’s license must attain a
passing grade on a written examination
taken within the 3-year period before
submission of the license application
prescribed under § 111.12 (19 CFR
111.12). Section 111.13 (19 CFR 111.13)
sets forth the requirements and
procedures for the written examination
for an individual broker’s license.
Paragraph (b) of § 111.13 pertains to the
date and place of the examination and
states that written customs broker
license examinations will be given on
the first Monday in April and October
unless the regularly scheduled
examination date conflicts with a
national holiday, religious observance,
or other foreseeable event and U.S.

Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
publishes in the Federal Register
appropriate notice of a change in the
examination date.
CBP recognizes that the first Monday
in April 2010 (April 5) coincides with
the observance of Passover. In
consideration of this conflict with
Passover, CBP has decided to change the
date of the examination pursuant to
§ 111.13(b). Accordingly, this document
announces that CBP has scheduled the
April 2010 examination for Wednesday,
April 7.
Dated: January 26, 2010.

information:
Title of Proposal: Public Housing
Contracting with Resident-Owned
Businesses.
OMB Control Number: 2577–0161.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use: PHAs
can enhance the economic opportunities
of public housing residents by allowing
for an alternative procurement method
to solicit and contract with eligible and
qualified resident-owned businesses to
obtain services, supplies, or
construction for individual contracts
that do not exceed a combined dollar
value of $1,000,000. The alternative
procurement method requires PHAs to
collect such information as certified
copies of any State, county, or
municipal licenses that may be required
of the business to engage in the type of
business activity for which it was
formed; a certification that shows the
business is owned by residents; and,
certification as to the number of
contracts awarded under the alternative
procurement process.
Agency Form Numbers: None.
Members of Affected Public: State or
Local Government; Public Housing
Agencies (PHAs), Individuals or
Households.
Estimation of the Total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response:

$57,072
*The Department estimates that out of a total of 4113 PHAs only 2 percent or 82 PHAs contract with resident owned business. The calculation
is as follows: 82 PHAs × 24 (hours) = 1,968 (total burden hours) × $29 p/hr = $57,072 (total annual cost) Average PHA salary = $60,000 per
year; $1154 per week; $29.00 per hour.
Status of the Proposed Information
Collection: Extension of a currently
approved collection.

of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended.
