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,

privileged or confidential business information will be deemed to be

of the nonconfidential version, should be submitted no later than 20 
days after the date of this notice to: Office of Export Trading Company 
Affairs, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce,

exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
