SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act

specified in the Certificate and carried out in compliance with its 
terms and conditions. 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 proposed export conduct.

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.

Summary of the Application

    Applicant: Northwest Fruit Exporters, 105 South 18th Street, Suite 
227, Yakima, WA 98901.
    Contact: Fred Scarlett, Manager, (509) 576-8004.
    Application No.: 84-28A12.
    Date Deemed Submitted: September 20, 2017.
    Proposed Amendment: Northwest Fruit Exporters seeks to amend its 
Certificate as follows:
    1. Add a definition of ``export quota'' to clarify that export 
quotas are those imposed by an authorized government entity in the 
receiving country. The term does not include a growers association.
    2. Add the Affiliate Contractor to the Export Trade Certificate of 
Review, as the Affiliate Contractor will provide management services by 
contract to assist Northwest Fruit Exporters in carrying out its 
activities authorized under the Export Trade Certificate of Review:
    3. Add a definition of ``Affiliate Contractor'' to recognize that 
the Northwest Horticultural Council (``NHC'') will be providing 
management services by contract to assist NFE in carrying out its 
activities authorized under the Export Trade Certificate of Review.
    4. Add a clarifying amendment restating that meetings at which the 
NFE Board of Directors may allocate quotas among its members or 
establish export prices shall not be open to the public or to members 
of NFE not represented on the NFE Board of Directors. Employees of the 
Affiliate Contractor are eligible to attend such meetings.
    5. Add an amendment that through the management services agreement 
between NFE and NHC, NHC staff may receive or have access to NFE 
information that is confidential or proprietary (``Confidential 
Information''). Employees of NHC will be required to maintain the 
confidentiality of the Confidential Information as is currently 
required of NFE employees. Failure to maintain the confidentiality of 
NFE's Confidential Information shall be cause for termination of 
employment
