more beneficiary countries. This
preferential treatment is also available
for apparel articles assembled in one or
more lesser-developed beneficiary subSaharan African countries, regardless of
the country of origin of the fabric used
to make such articles, subject to
quantitative limitation. Title VI of the
TRHCA 2006 extended this special rule
for lesser-developed countries through
September 30, 2012.
The AGOA Acceleration Act of 2004
provides that the quantitative limitation
for the twelve-month period beginning
October 1, 2011 will be an amount not
to exceed 7 percent of the aggregate
square meter equivalents of all apparel
articles imported into the United States
in the preceding 12-month period for
which data are available. See Section
112(b)(3)(A)(ii)(I) of TDA 2000, as
amended by Section 7(b)(2)(B) of the
AGOA Acceleration Act of 2004. Of this
overall amount, apparel imported under
the special rule for lesser-developed
countries is limited to an amount not to
exceed 3.5 percent of all apparel articles
imported into the United States in the
preceding 12-month period. See Section
112(b)(3)(B)(ii)(II) of TDA 2000, as
amended by Section 6002(a) of TRHCA
2006. Presidential Proclamation 7350 of
October 2, 2000 directed CITA to
publish the aggregate quantity of
imports allowed during each 12-month
period in the Federal Register.
For the one-year period, beginning on
October 1, 2011, and extending through
September 30, 2012 the aggregate
quantity of imports eligible for
preferential treatment under these
provisions is 1,877,430,342 square
meters equivalent. Of this amount,
938,715,171 square meters equivalent is
available to apparel articles imported
under the special rule for lesserdeveloped countries. Apparel articles
entered in excess of these quantities will
be subject to otherwise applicable
tariffs.
These quantities are calculated using
the aggregate square meter equivalents
of all apparel articles imported into the
United States, derived from the set of
Harmonized System lines listed in the
Annex to the World Trade Organization
Agreement on Textiles and Clothing
(ATC), and the conversion factors for
units of measure into square meter
equivalents used by the United States in
implementing the ATC.

ACTION: Notice of Intent.
AGENCY:
Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321, et
seq.), the Council on Environmental
Quality (CEQ) Regulations for
Implementing the Procedural Provisions
of NEPA (40 CFR parts 1500–1508), and
U.S. Air Force (USAF) Environmental
Impact Analysis Process (32 CFR part
989), the USAF is issuing this notice to
advise the public of its intent to prepare
an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS) for Divert Activities and Exercises,
Guam and Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands.
The proposed divert activities and
exercises would involve airfield
improvements designed to provide
additional divert capability for various
military aircraft operating as part of
joint training exercises, humanitarian
assistance activities, and disaster relief
operations for northeast Asia. The
proposed action would include the
development and construction of
facilities and infrastructure designed to
support up to one tanker squadron of 12
KC–135 aircraft and its approximately
500 support personnel. This proposed
action includes divert activities and
exercises involving a tanker squadron,
as well as USAF, U.S. Navy, or other
military aircraft operating in the region,
and ideally would require a 10,000-foot
runway. Components of the proposal
include a cargo pad; an expanded
runway area; new taxiways, aprons, and
shoulders; 6,000-square foot
maintenance facility; jet fuel receiving,
storage, and delivery capability; and
associated pavement markings, lighting,
security, and other related
infrastructure.
The possible alternatives for the
divert airfield capability include the
international airports on Saipan, Tinian,
Rota, or other reasonable alternatives
developed during the scoping process.
Guam International Airport, as an
existing divert location, will be
considered in this EIS, as part of the no
action alternative.
The Air Force is in the process of
inviting potential Cooperating Agencies
to participate in aspects of the EIS
development as appropriate or required.
