SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act 
of 1982 (15 U.S.C. Sections 4001-21) authorizes the Secretary of 
Commerce to issue Export Trade Certificates of Review. An Export Trade 
Certificate of Review protects the holder and the members identified in 
the Certificate from State and Federal government antitrust actions and 
from private treble damage antitrust actions for the export conduct 
specified in the Certificate and carried out in compliance with its 
terms and conditions. The regulations implementing Title III are found 
at 15 CFR part 325 (2015). Section 302(b)(1) of the Export Trading 
Company Act of 1982 and 15 CFR 325.6(a) require the Secretary to 
publish a notice in the Federal Register identifying the applicant and 
summarizing its application. Under 15 CFR 325.6 (a), interested parties 
may, within twenty days after the date of this notice, submit written 
comments to the Secretary through OTEA on the application.
    Request for Public Comments: Interested parties may submit written 
comments relevant to the determination whether an amended Certificate 
should be issued. If the comments include any privileged or 
confidential business information, it must be clearly marked and a 
nonconfidential version of the comments (identified as such) should be 
included. Any comments not marked as privileged or confidential 
business information will be deemed to be nonconfidential.
    An original and five (5) copies, plus two (2) copies of the 
nonconfidential version, should be submitted no later than 20 days 
after the date of this notice to: Office of Trade and Economic 
Analysis, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, Room 21028, Washington, DC 20230.
    Information submitted by any person is exempt from disclosure under 
the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552). However, nonconfidential 
versions of the comments will be made available to the applicant if 
necessary for determining whether or not to issue the amended

Trade Certificate of Review, application number 14-2A004.''
