Economic Impact Policy

    This notice is to inform the public that the Export-Import Bank of 
the United States has received an application to finance the export of 
approximately $430 million in U.S. equipment and services to a 
petroleum refinery and petrochemicals facility in India. The U.S. 
exports will enable the facility to produce approximately 3 million 
metric tons of petroleum coke (petcoke), 600 thousand metric tons of 
sulfur and 900 thousand metric tons of polypropylene. Initial 
production at this facility is expected to commence in 2008.
    Available information indicates that the petcoke and sulfur will be 
consumed primarily in India; however during the initial years of 
production, limited amounts of petcoke may be sold to buyers in Asian 
markets. The polypropylene will be consumed in Asia, Europe and the 
Middle East. Interested parties may submit comments on this transaction 
by e-mail to economic.impact@exim.gov or by mail to 811 Vermont Avenue, 
NW., Room 1238, Washington, DC 20571, within 14 days of the date this 
notice appears in the Federal Register.
