mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Background
Codex was established in 1963 by two
United Nations organizations, the Food
and Agriculture Organization and the
World Health Organization. Through
adoption of food standards, codes of
practice, and other guidelines
developed by its committees, and by
promoting their adoption and
implementation by governments, Codex
seeks to protect the health of consumers
and ensure that fair practices are used
in trade.
The CCMAS is responsible for
defining the criteria appropriate to
Codex Methods of Analysis and
Sampling; serving as a coordinating
body for Codex with other international
groups working in methods of analysis
and sampling and quality assurance
systems for laboratories; specifying the
basis of final recommendations
submitted to it by other bodies;
considering, amending, and endorsing,
methods of analysis and sampling
proposed by Codex (Commodity)
Committees, except that methods of
analysis and sampling for residues of
pesticides or veterinary drugs in food,
the assessment of microbiological
quality and safety in food, and the
assessment of specifications for food
additives do not fall within the terms of
reference of this Committee. The
Committee is charged with elaborating
sampling plans and procedures;
considering specific sampling and
analysis problems submitted to it by the
Commission or any of its Committees;
defining procedures, protocols,
guidelines, or related texts for the
assessment of food laboratory
proficiency; and developing quality
assurance systems for laboratories.
The Committee is hosted by Hungary.
Issues To Be Discussed at the Public
Meeting
The following items on the agenda for
the 36th Session of CCMAS will be
discussed during the public meeting:
• Methods of Analysis and Sampling in
Codex Standards at different steps
• Proposed Draft Principles for the Use
of Sampling and Testing in
International Food Trade-Explanatory
notes and practical examples
• Discussion paper on development of
procedures/guidelines for
determining equivalency to type I
methods
• Discussion paper on criteria approach
for methods which use a sum of
components
• Review and update of methods in

• Follow-up methods of analysis and

Each issue listed will be fully

the public may access or request copies
of these documents (see ADDRESSES).
Public Meeting
At the February 5, 2015 public
meeting, draft U.S. positions on the
agenda items will be described,
discussed, and attendees will have the
opportunity to pose questions and offer
comments. Written comments may be
offered at the meeting or sent to the U.S.
Delegate for the 36th Session of CCMAS,
Gregory Noonan (see ADDRESSES).
Written comments should state that they
relate to activities of the 36th Session of
CCMAS.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: International Trade
Administration.
Title: Steel Import License.
OMB Control Number: 0625–0245.
Form Number(s): ITA–4141P.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(extension of a currently approved
information collection).
Number of Respondents: 3,500.
Average Hours per Response: 0.17
hour/response (10 minutes).
Burden Hours: 92,878.
Needs and Uses: In order to monitor
steel imports in real-time and to provide
the public with real-time data, the
Department of Commerce (DOC) must
collect and provide timely aggregated
summaries about these imports. The
Steel Import License proposed by the
International Trade Administration of
the DOC is the tool used to collect the
necessary information. The Census
Bureau currently collects import data
and disseminates aggregate information
about steel imports. However, the time
required to collect, process, and
disseminate this information through
Census can take up to 70 days after
importation of the product, giving
interested parties and the public far less
time to respond to injurious sales.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under
review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to OIRA Submission@
omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.
Dated: December 15, 2014.
