Export Trade Certificate of Review

ACTION: Corrected notice of application for an amended Export Trade 
Certificate of Review for Alaska Longline Cod Commission, Application 
No. 10-6A001.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Secretary of Commerce, through the Office of Trade and 
Economic Analysis (``OTEA'') of the International Trade Administration, 
has received an application for an amended Export Trade Certificate of 
Review (``Certificate''). This notice summarizes the proposed amendment 
and seeks public comments on whether the amended Certificate should be 
issued.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joseph Flynn, Director, OTEA, 
International Trade Administration, by telephone at (202) 482-5131 
(this is not a toll-free number) or email at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Export Trading Company Act 
of 1982 (15 U.S.C. 4001-21) (``the Act'') 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. OTEA is issuing this notice pursuant to 15 CFR 
325.6(a), which requires the Secretary of Commerce to publish a summary 
of the application in the Federal Register, identifying the applicant 
and each member and summarizing the proposed export conduct.

Request for Public Comments

    Interested parties may submit written comments relevant to the 
determination whether a 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.
    Written comments should be sent to [email protected]. An original and 
two (2) copies should also 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 Certificate. 
Comments should refer to this application as ``Export Trade Certificate 
of Review, application number 10-6A001.''

Correction

    In the Federal Register of November 3, 2022, in 87 FR 66272, the 
Export Product defined ``ray wings'' as being derived from ``Alaska 
skate.'' The correct term is ``various species of skate.''
    These corrections are reflected in the revised Summary of the 
Application below.

Summary of the Application

    Applicant: Alaska Longline Cod Commission, c/o Mundt MacGregor 
L.L.P., 271 Wyatt Way NE, Suite 106, Bainbridge Island, WA, 98110.
    Contact: Duncan McIntosh, Attorney at Law.
    Application No.: 10-6A001.
    Date Deemed Submitted: October 21, 2022.
    Proposed Amendment: Alaska Longline Cod Commission (``ALCC'') seeks 
to amend its Certificate as follows:
    1. Under Export Trade, change references of Export Product to 
Export Products.
    2. Add the following six products as Export Products within the 
meaning of section 325.2(j) of the Regulations (15 CFR 325.2(j)):

a. cod heads
b. cod collars
c. cod roe
d. cod chu
e. cod milt
f. ray wings


    3. Change the reference to Export Product in the following 
sentence:

    Change ``Frozen-at-sea means that the Export Product is frozen 
on the catcher-processor vessel while at-sea immediately after being 
headed and gutted.'' to ``Frozen-at-sea means that the Alaska cod is 
frozen on the catcher-processor vessel while at-sea immediately 
after being headed and gutted.''

    The proposed amendment would result in the following Export 
Products under Export Trade in the Certificate:

Export Products

    ALCC plans to export frozen at-sea, headed and gutted, Alaska cod 
(Gadus macrocephalus), also known as Pacific cod. Headed and gutted 
means the head and viscera are removed prior to freezing. Frozen-at-sea 
means that the Alaska cod is frozen on the catcher-processor vessel 
while at-sea immediately after being headed and gutted.
    ALCC also plans to export byproducts of ALCC frozen-at-sea, headed 
and gutted Alaska cod: cod heads; cod collars; cod roe; cod chu; cod 
milt; and ray wings. The cod heads, cod collars, cod roe, cod chu, and 
cod milt are derived from parts of the Alaska cod remaining after the 
heading-and-gutting of the cod to produce frozen-at-sea headed and 
gutted Alaska cod. The ray wings are derived from various species of 
skate, which are caught incidentally while targeting Alaska cod.
    Membership remains the same following this amendment:

    1. Akulurak LLC, Seattle, WA;
    2. Alaskan Leader Fisheries LLC, Lynden, WA;
    3. Alaskan Leader Seafoods LLC, Lynden, WA;
    4. Alaskan Leader Vessel LLC, Lynden, WA;
    5. Aleutian Longline, LLC, Seattle, WA;
    6. Aleutian Spray Fisheries, Inc., Seattle, WA;

    8. Bering Leader Fisheries LLC, Lynden, WA;
    9. Bristol Leader Fisheries LLC, Lynden, WA;
    10. Bristol Wave Seafoods, LLC, Seattle, WA;
    11. Coastal Alaska Premier Seafoods, LLC, Anchorage, AK;
    12. Coastal Villages Longline LLC, Anchorage, AK;
    13. Deep Sea Fisheries, Inc., Everett, WA;
    14. Gulf Mist, Inc., Everett, WA;
    15. Gulf Prowler, LLC, Juneau, AK;
    16. Kodiak Leader Fisheries LLC, Lynden, WA;
    17. Northern Leader Fisheries LLC, Lynden, WA;
    18. Romanzof Fishing Company, L.L.C., Seattle, WA;
    19. Shelford's Boat, Ltd., Mill Creek, WA;
    20. Siu Alaska Corporation, Anchorage, AK;
    21. Starfish Reverse, LLC, Seattle, WA;
    22. Tatoosh Seafoods, LLC, Kingston, WA.
