That directive concerns imports of certain cotton, wool and man-made fiber textile products, produced or manufactured in the Dominican Republic and exported during the twelve-month period which began on January 1, 2000 and extends through December 31, 2000. Effective on August 31, 2000, you are directed to adjust the current limits for the following categories, as provided for under the Uruguay Round Agreement on Textiles and Clothing: Category Adjusted twelve-month limit 1 338/638 1,213,444 dozen. 339/639 1,315,889 dozen. 347/348/647/648 2,926,912 dozen of which not more than 1,356,395 dozen shall be in Categories 647/648. 1 The limits have not been adjusted to account for any imports exported after December 31, 1999. The Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements has determined that these actions fall within the foreign affairs exception of the rulemaking provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1). Sincerely, Richard B. Steinkamp, *Acting Chairman, Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements.* [FR Doc. 00-22184 Filed 8-29-00; 8:45 am]
