FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean Heilman Grier, Senior Procurement

SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 533 of the Airport and Airway Improvement 
Act of 1982, as amended (49 U.S.C. 50104), the United States Trade 
Representative (USTR) has determined not to list any countries as 
denying fair market opportunities for U.S. products, suppliers, or 
bidders in foreign government-funded airport construction projects.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 533 of the Airport and Airway 
Improvement Act of 1982, as amended by section 115 of the Airport and 
Airway Safety and Capacity Expansion Act of 1987, Public Law 100-223 
(codified at 49 U.S.C. 50104) (``the Act''), requires USTR to decide 
whether any foreign countries have denied fair market opportunities to 
U.S. products, suppliers, or bidders in connection with airport 
construction projects of $500,000 or more that are funded in whole or 
in part by the governments of such countries. The list of such 
countries must be published in the Federal Register. USTR has not 
received any complaints or other information that indicates that U.S. 
products, suppliers, or bidders are being denied fair market 
opportunities in such airport construction projects. As a consequence, 
for purposes of the Act, USTR has decided not to list any countries as 
denying fair market opportunities for U.S. products, suppliers, or 
bidders in foreign government-funded airport construction projects.

United States Trade Representative.
