restrictions, import licensing, and
customs barriers);
(2) Government procurement
restrictions (e.g.,’’buy national policies’’
and closed bidding);
(3) Export subsidies (e.g., export
financing on preferential terms and
agricultural export subsidies that
displace U.S. exports in third country
markets);
(4) Lack of intellectual property
protection (e.g., inadequate patent,
copyright, and trademark regimes);
(5) Services barriers (e.g., limits on the
range of financial services offered by
foreign financial institutions, regulation
of international data flows, restrictions
on the use of data processing, quotas on
imports of foreign films, and barriers to
the provision of services by
professionals);
(6) Investment barriers (e.g.,
limitations on foreign equity
participation and on access to foreign
government-funded R&D consortia, local
content, technology transfer and export
performance requirements, and
restrictions on repatriation of earnings,
capital, fees, and royalties);
(7) Government-tolerated
anticompetitive conduct of state-owned
or private firms that restrict the sale or
purchase of U.S. goods or services in the
foreign country’s markets;
(8) Trade restrictions affecting
electronic commerce (e.g., tariff and
non-tariff measures, burdensome and
discriminatory regulations and
standards, and discriminatory taxation);
and
(9) Other barriers (e.g., barriers that
encompass more than one category,
such as bribery and corruption, or that
affect a single sector).
In responding to this notice,
commenters should place particular
emphasis on any practices that may
violate U.S. trade agreements. The TPSC
is also interested in receiving new or
updated information pertinent to the
barriers covered in the 2012 NTE as well
as information on new barriers. If USTR
does not include in the NTE information
that it receives pursuant to this notice,
it will maintain the information for
potential use in future discussions or
negotiations with trading partners.
Estimate of Increase in Exports: Each
comment should include an estimate of
the potential increase in U.S. exports
that would result from removing any
foreign trade barrier the comment
identifies, as well as a description of the
methodology the commenter used to
derive the estimate. Estimates should be
expressed within the following value
ranges: Less than $5 million; $5 to $25
million; $25 million to $50 million; $50
million to $100 million; $100 million to

$500 million; or over $500 million.
These estimates will help USTR
conduct comparative analyses of a
barrier’s effect over a range of
industries.
Requirements for Submissions:
Commenters providing information on
foreign trade barriers in more than one
country should, whenever possible,
provide a separate submission for each
country. Comments addressing SPS or
standards-related measures should not
be submitted in response to this request
but should be submitted in response to
the separate request for comments
which will be forthcoming.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Notice is
hereby given that the FAA has elected
to ‘‘Categorically Exclude from further

procedures as follows: GIBBZ (RNAV)

This project consists of publishing
procedures identified as the GIBBZ
(RNAV) STAR, DOCCS STAR, RNLDI
(RNAV) SID (previously named BLUES
ONE (RNAV) SID) and BUNZZ ONE
(RNAV) SID. On June 4, 2012, the
BLUES (RNAV) SID was renamed to the
RNLDI RNAV SID. RNAV facilitates
more efficient design of airspace and
procedures which collectively result in
improved safety, access, predictability,
and operational efficiency. Improved
access and flexibility for point-to-point
operations help enhance reliability and
reduce delays by defining more precise
terminal area procedures. The review
process indicated that the proposed
project will not adversely impact the
environment. Consequently, the FAA
has elected to ‘‘Categorically Exclude
from further environmental review’’ the
proposed Standard Terminal Arrival
procedures, based upon compliance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, § 311(i).
