These meetings are open to citizens of federally recognized tribes by invitation. The Census Bureau provided questions in preparation for the tribal consultations focused on the Detailed DHC–A and Detailed DHC–B. In that regard, the Census Bureau is asking tribal governments review the proposed tables, levels of geography, and product design. Helpful feedback would include tables and geographies that are needed, how design changes may impact your work, and ways the Census Bureau can continue to effectively communicate with tribal leaders about these products. The purpose of the tribal consultations is to hear tribes’ recommendations. DATES: The Census Bureau will conduct two tribal consultations on Tuesday, October 18, 2022, from 1 to 3 p.m. AKDT. The second tribal consultation will be on Monday, October 31, 2022, from 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. PDT.

identified HTSUS codes that match to critical goods and materials in 
four of these supply chains, drawing upon the expertise of industry 
analysts. Each product is identified as either an input, capital good, 
or final good. The draft list of HTSUS codes, defined at the 8 and 10-
