SUMMARY: The title of the investigation as published in the Federal 
Register on February 9, 2007 (72 FR 7455) suggests that the Commission 
will provide advice limited to the probable economic effect of 
modification of certain rules of origin in the Dominican Republic-
Central America-United States Free Trade Agreement for certain apparel 
goods of Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic only. However, the text 
of the notice indicates that the Commission will provide such advice 
with respect to the probable economic effect of modification of the 
rules of origin on such apparel goods of all the parties to the 
agreement. The Commission's intent to is provide the broader advice. 
Accordingly, the title of the investigation is amended to delete ``of 
Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic.'' To allow additional time for 
any interested parties who may have been confused by the title, the 
Commission has extended the deadline for filing written submissions in 
this investigation from March 2, 2007 to March 16, 2007.
    All other information in the notice published on February 9, 2007, 
including with respect to Commission contacts, background information, 
and requirements for submitting written statements (except for the 
deadline) remains the same.

     Issued: February 23, 2007.

    By order of the Commission.
Marilyn Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
