TECHNICAL OFFICE

Notice of Foreign Proposals Concerning Standards in Agriculture. As required
of all signatories to the GATT Standards Code, the following notifications of
foreign proposed standards-related rules have been provided for the information
and comment of interested agencies and firms. The Technical Office invites
inquiries from anyone who believes that any of the proposed regulations
notified under this heading could cause a trade problem. From time to time we
also receive information through our embassies in foreign countries, as is the
case this week. Request for copies or questions can be referred to
Carolyn Fillmore Wilson, USDA Technical Office, Building 1072 BARC East,
Beltsville, MD. 20705; or telephone (301) 344-2651. After reviewing a
particular proposal, anyone interested in commenting on it should include the
TBT Notification Number in their communication.

Japan TBT Notification 86.46 The Japanese Ministry of International Trade
and Industry and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has
announced a proposal which is an amendment to the enforcement ordinance of the
Consumer Product Safety Law. The products covered by this proposal are bottled
carbonated beverages and glass bottles for carbonated beverages. The
aforementioned items which have been designated as "specific products" by the
existing ordinance, shall by this proposal be designated as "second-class
specific products" to which a self-certification system shall be applied. The
objective and rationale for the proposal is transition from
government-certification to self-certification. The final date for comments
on the proposal is May 7, 1986.

Japan The Technical Office has received a list of natural food additives
which are allowed for use in foods in Japan.
