Download as PDF 70854 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 229 / Friday, November 28, 2014 / Notices 2014, the ITC published notice of its determination, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the antidumping duty order on fish fillets from Vietnam would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.3 Scope of the Order The product covered by the order is frozen fish fillets, including regular, shank, and strip fillets and portions thereof, whether or not breaded or marinated, of the species Pangasius Bocourti, Pangasius Hypophthalmus (also known as Pangasius Pangasius) and Pangasius Micronemus. Frozen fish fillets are lengthwise cuts of whole fish. The fillet products covered by the scope include boneless fillets with the belly flap intact (‘‘regular’’ fillets), boneless fillets with the belly flap removed (‘‘shank’’ fillets) and boneless shank fillets cut into strips (‘‘fillet strips/finger’’), which include fillets cut into strips, chunks, blocks, skewers, or any other shape. Specifically excluded from the scope are frozen whole fish (whether or not dressed), frozen steaks, and frozen bellyflap nuggets. Frozen whole, dressed fish are deheaded, skinned, and eviscerated. Steaks are bone-in, cross-section cuts of dressed fish. Nuggets are the belly-flaps. The subject merchandise will be hereinafter referred to as frozen ‘‘basa’’ and ‘‘tra’’ fillets, which are the Vietnamese common names for these species of fish. These products are classifiable under tariff article codes 0304.29.6033, 0304.62.0020, 0305.59.0000, 0305.59.4000, 1604.19.2000, 1604.19.2100, 1604.19.3000, 1604.19.3100, 1604.19.4000, 1604.19.4100, 1604.19.5000, 1604.19.5100, 1604.19.6100 and 1604.19.8100 (Frozen Fish Fillets of the species Pangasius including basa and tra) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’).4 The order covers all frozen fish fillets meeting the above specifications, regardless of tariff classification. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of the order is dispositive. Continuation of the Order As a result of the determinations by the Department and the ITC that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the antidumping order on fish fillets from Vietnam. U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect antidumping duty cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise. The effective date of the continuation of the order will be the date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act, the Department intends to initiate the next five-year review of the order not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of continuation. This five-year (‘‘sunset’’) review and this notice are in accordance with section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: November 17, 2014.

Produced with digital technology, the catalogs are easy-to-see, easy-to-use, easy-to-print, and are updated as changes occur. The new format has a higher resolution and more geographic names than the large-format catalog, and heavily trafficked waterways covered by multiple charts have their own dedicated pages. If users prefer a Web-based search for charts, they can use the interactive catalog that Coast Survey established in early 2014. The interactive catalog is at www.charts.noaa.gov/ InteractiveCatalog/nrnc.shtml, or it can be accessed from the Coast Survey home page at nauticalcharts.noaa.gov. Coast Survey has stopped updating and producing the large-format chart catalogs since the federal government is no longer printing them. We will archive the latest versions in Coast Survey’s Historical Map & Chart Collection (nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/ history). We could re-start the updating process if there is a market demand and if commercial printing firms decided to carry the catalogs as for-sale products. The updated chart catalogs would only have the front side showing the areas covered by the catalog, with chart outlines and their corresponding chart numbers. They would not show anything on the reverse side.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

1. Background

    Until April 2014, the Federal Aviation Administration had printed 
NOAA's nautical chart catalogs on oversized paper sheets (35 inches by 
55 inches), folded them, and made them available to the public for 
free. Since the printing was done in bulk, and stored prior to 
distribution, the information on the reverse side of the catalogs was 
often out-of-date by the time catalogs reached customers. When the FAA 
ceased printing NOAA nautical charts in April, they also stopped 
printing the catalogs. Since then, NOAA's Office of Coast Survey has 
privatized paper chart production by expanding the number of

[[Page 70855]]

chart printing agents through the NOAA ``print-on-demand'' program. 
Questions remain on whether to transition the catalogs to a similar 
``print-on-demand'' system where customers would pay for the catalogs.

2. Current Status of the Chart Catalogs

    Coast Survey now makes letter-sized ``print-at-home'' PDF chart 
catalogs available for download, free, at www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/catalog. Produced with digital technology, the catalogs are easy-to-
see, easy-to-use, easy-to-print, and are updated as changes occur. The 
new format has a higher resolution and more geographic names than the 
large-format catalog, and heavily trafficked waterways covered by 
multiple charts have their own dedicated pages.
    If users prefer a Web-based search for charts, they can use the 
interactive catalog that Coast Survey established in early 2014. The 
interactive catalog is at www.charts.noaa.gov/InteractiveCatalog/nrnc.shtml, or it can be accessed from the Coast Survey home page at 
nauticalcharts.noaa.gov.
    Coast Survey has stopped updating and producing the large-format 
chart catalogs since the federal government is no longer printing them. 
We will archive the latest versions in Coast Survey's Historical Map & 
Chart Collection (nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/history). We could re-start

printers.)

3. Public Comments

    The director of NOAA's Office of Coast Survey invites interested 
parties to submit comments to assist Coast Survey as it decides whether 
to maintain the one-sided large-format (35 inch by 55 inch) chart 
catalogs that could be made available for purchase from commercial 
providers, subject to their decision about whether to carry the 
product. Comments about the new letter-sized PDF catalogs and the 
interactive Web catalog are also welcome.
