Commissioner of Customs,
Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 20229.

Dear Commissioner: This directive amends, but does not cancel,
the directive issued to you on November 12, 1993, by the Chairman,
Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements. That
directive concerns imports of certain cotton, wool and man-made
fiber textile products, produced or manufactured in Guatemala and
exported during the twelve-month period which began on January 1,
1994 and extends through December 31, 1994.
Effective on December 13, 1994, you are directed to amend
further the directive dated November 12, 1993 to adjust the limits
for the following categories, as provided under the terms of the
current bilateral agreement between the Governments of the United
States and Guatemala:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Category Adjusted twelve-month limit\1\
------------------------------------------------------------------------
340/640............................ 1,003,325 dozen.
347/348............................ 1,306,164 dozen.
351/651............................ 170,615 dozen.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\The limits have not been adjusted to account for any imports exported
after December 31, 1993.

The guaranteed access levels for the foregoing categories remain
unchanged.
The Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements has
determined that these actions fall within the foreign affairs
exception to the rulemaking provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1).
Sincerely,
Rita D. Hayes,
Chairman, Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements.
