Title: Elimination of Regulations Related to Trade Adjustment Assistance for Industries and Streamlining of Regulations Related to Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms and PWEDA
Abstract: EDA is eliminating portions of 13 CFR 315.4 and all of 13 CFR 315.17. These regulations describe requirements related to implementation of section 265 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2355), trade adjustment assistance to entire industries. EDA has only received appropriations to provide assistance to individual firms, never entire industries. As such, the regulations related to assistance to industries are not needed and serve to confuse potential applicants that such a program may be available when it is not. EDA is also streamlining and clarifying the regulations that implement the Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms Program (13 CFR part 315) and various property and conflicts of interest regulations under the Public Works and Economic Development Act (PWEDA) implementing regulations (13 CFR part 314 and 13 CFR 302.17).
