at 15 CFR part 325 (2016). 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

business information will be deemed to be nonconfidential.
