Notice of Postponement for the Asia EDGE Business Development 
Mission to Southeast Asia

AGENCY: International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The United States Department of Commerce, International Trade 
Administration (ITA), is announcing the indefinite postponement of the 
Asia EDGE (Enhancing Development and Growth through Energy) Business 
Development Mission to Indonesia and Vietnam, with an optional stop to 
Thailand, which was previously announced in the Federal Register and 
scheduled for September 16-24, 2021. ITA remains committed to hold the 
Mission at the soonest possible dates keeping in mind COVID-19 
developments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice to postpone the dates and deadlines 
of the Asia EDGE Business Development Mission to Indonesia and Vietnam 
published in 86 FR 7705 (February 1, 2021).

Background

    The Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration 
(ITA), is announcing the indefinite postponement of the dates for the 
executive-led Asia EDGE Business Development Mission which was 
originally published in 86 FR 7705 (February 1, 2021) and 84 FR 58590 
(September 16, 2019). The Asia EDGE Business Development Mission will 
be indefinitely postponed until new dates can be identified. The 
Department has been closely monitoring COVID-19 developments and has 
determined that postponing the mission is necessary to ensure safety, 
health, and welfare of the participants. When we have determined 
modified dates for the event, we will inform the public through an 
updated Federal Register announcement. ITA will assume that previously 
approved applicants wish to continue to be considered as applicants for 
the postponed mission unless we are informed otherwise.
