September 15, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Commission hereby gives notice that it will proceed with full reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(5)) to determine whether revocation of the antidumping duty orders on seamless pipe from Argentina, Brazil, and Germany would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time. A schedule for the reviews will be established and announced at a later date. For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).

This document is revising the effective date of two rules published in the Federal Register of August 16, 2006: The Preliminary Assessment Information Reporting Rule (PAIR) and the Health and Safety Data Reporting Rule because of the relocation of the dockets for these two rules. Structural damage to the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC) caused by flooding in June 2006 necessitated the relocation of the EPA/DC. Although the EPA/DC is continuing operations, the relocation of EPA/DC and resumption of normal operations has taken place during the period that withdrawal requests for removal of chemicals from these two rules would be arriving; therefore, EPA has decided that the effective dates for these two rules will be revised to ensure that all requests that were submitted to EPA by August 30, 2006, for withdrawal of chemicals listed in these two rules have been accounted for and addressed.

On June 1, 2005, the Department of Commerce initiated and the International Trade Commission instituted a sunset review of the antidumping duty orders on antifriction bearings and parts thereof from France and Singapore. As a result of the review, the International Trade Commission determined that revocation of the order on spherical plain bearings and parts thereof from France and the order on ball bearings and parts thereof from Singapore would not be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time. Therefore, the Department of Commerce is revoking these two antidumping duty orders.

The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Employment and Training Administration is soliciting comments concerning the proposed extension of the collection for the Occupational Code Assignment (OCA) information. A copy of the proposed information collection request (ICR) can be obtained by contacting the office listed below in the ADDRESSES section of this notice or at this Web site: https://www.doleta.gov/Performance/ guidance/OMBControlNumber.cfm.

This document proposes adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the specified Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Sikorsky) model helicopters. The AD would require, within a specified time, creating a component history card or equivalent record. The AD would also require recording the hours time-in-service (TIS) and the external lift cycles (lift cycles) for each main gearbox input left and right freewheel unit (IFWU) assembly. Also, the AD would require calculating a moving average of lift cycles per hour TIS at specified intervals on each IFWU assembly. The moving average would be used to determine if an IFWU assembly is used in repetitive external lift (REL) or non-REL helicopter operations. If an IFWU assembly is used in REL operations, this AD would require a repetitive inspection, which requires a visual and dimensional inspection of the IFWU assembly at specified intervals. This AD would also require recording certain information and replacing each part that is beyond the wear limits or that exhibits visual surface distress with an airworthy part. In addition, this AD would require permanently marking the REL IFWU camshafts and gear housings with the letters ``REL'' on the surface of these parts. This proposal is prompted by an accident in which the left and right IFWU assembly on a helicopter slipped or disengaged resulting in both engines overspeeding, engine shutdowns, and loss of engine power to the transmissions. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to prevent slipping in the IFWU assembly, loss of engine power to the transmissions, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

We are amending the brucellosis regulations concerning the interstate movement of cattle by changing the classification of Wyoming from Class A to Class Free.

The objective of this project is to mitigate any potential global shortage of influenza vaccines and the manufacturing of this vaccine in the event of an influenza pandemic. The Office of Public Health Emergency Preparedness (OPHEP) requires the World Health Organization (WHO) to perform activities related to pandemic influenza preparedness and planning, particularly in the international development of H5N1 human vaccines (and other pandemic influenza vaccine candidates) and influenza vaccine manufacturing infrastructure building in countries where resources for vaccine acquisition and manufacturing may be limited. The specific countries in which the WHO Secretariat will carry out these activities are Argentina, Brazil, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Romania, Russia, South Africa, and Tunisia. Activities include pre-clinical safety and immunogenicity testing, toxicology testing, clinical vaccine lot manufacturing, scale-up and process development, analytical lot release assay development and validation, and clinical immunogencity assay development and validation.
