June 22, 1977

Implementation of Orderly Marketing Agreements—and the Temporary Quantitative Limitation on the importation into the United States of Certain Footwear

By the President of the United States A Proclamation 1. On February 8, 1977, the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) reported to the President (USITC Publication 799) the results of its investigation under section 201(b) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2251 (b)) (the Trade Act). The USITC determined that footwear provided for in items 700.05 through 700.85, inclusive (except items 700.51, 700.52, 700.53, 700.54, and 700.60, and disposable footwear designed for one-time use provided for in item 700.85) of the Tariff Schedules of the United States (TSUS), are being imported into the United States 19 USC 1202. in such increased quantities as to be a substantial cause of serious injury to the domestic industry producing articles like or directly competitive with the imported articles. The USITC recommended the imposition of certain tariff rate quotas on imports of the above specified articles. 2. On April 1, 1977, pursuant to section 202(b)(1) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2252(b)(1)), and after taking into account the considerations specified in section 202(c) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2252(c)), I determined to remedy the injury found to exist by the USITC through the negotiation of orderly marketing agreements with appropriate suppliers of footwear, as authorized by section 203(a)(4) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2253(a)(4)); and announced my intention to negotiate such agreements calling for limits on the export from certain foreign countries, and the import into the United States, of certain footwear. On April 1, 1977, in accordance with section 203(b)(1) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2253(b)(1)), I transmitted a report to the Congress setting forth my determination and intention to negotiate orderly marketing agreements and stating the reasons why my decision differed from the action recommended by the USITC. 3. Section 203(e)(1) of the Trade Act.(19 U.S.C. 2253(e)(1)) requires that imjjort relief be proclaimed and take eflFect within 90 days after a Presidential determination to negotiate orderly marketing agreements.
