SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On January 3, 1994, a document was published in the Federal
Register (T.D. 94-4, 59 FR 110) containing the interim regulations that
represent fulfillment of the obligations of the United States under
paragraph 1 of Annex 311 of the North American Free-Trade Agreement
(NAFTA), as implemented under the North American Free-Trade Agreement
Implementation Act (Act) (Pub. L. 103-182, 107 Stat. 437 (December 8,
1993)). The document solicited public comments that were to be received
on or before April 4, 1994.
Customs has been requested to extend the period of time for
comments in order to afford interested parties additional time to study
the interim regulations and prepare responsive comment. In view of the
extensiveness and importance of the interim regulations, Customs
believes that the request for an extension of time should be granted.
Accordingly, the period of time for the submission of comments is being
extended to July 5, 1994.

Dated: March 3, 1994.
Stuart P. Seidel,
Acting Director, Office of Regulations and Rulings.
