BILLING CODE 6560-50-P EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF THE UNITED STATES Economic Impact Policy This notice is to inform the public that the Export-Import Bank of the United States has received an application to support the export of approximately $2.3 billion in U.S. petrochemical equipment and services to expand petrochemical production at an existing facility in India. The financed amount associated with the U.S. export contract is expected to total approximately $2 billion. The U.S. exports will enable the foreign buyer to increase its annual production of the following products: 550,000 metric tons of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE); 400,000 metric tons of low density polyethylene (LDPE); 733,000 metric tons of monoethylene glycol (MEG); 1,800,000 metric tons of paraxylene (PX); and 152,000 metric tons of polypropylene (PP).
