SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Department received a timely request from QHD Sanhai in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’) and 19 CFR 351.214 (c), for a new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on honey from the PRC, which has a December anniversary month. See Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order; Honey from the People’s Republic of China, 66 FR 63670 (December 10, 2001). QHD Sanhai identified itself as a producer and exporter of honey. As required by 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i) and (iii)(A), QHD Sanhai certified that it did not export honey to the United States during the period of investigation (‘‘POI’’), and that it has never been affiliated with any exporter or producer which exported honey to the United States during the POI. Furthermore, the company also certified that its export activities are not controlled by the government of the PRC, satisfying the requirements of 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B). Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iv), QHD Sanhai submitted documentation establishing the date on which the subject merchandise was first entered for consumption in the United States, the volume of that first shipment and any subsequent shipments, and the date of the first sale to an unaffiliated customer in the United States. The Department conducted Customs database queries and analyzed Customs entry packages to confirm that the shipments made by QHD Sanhai had officially entered the United States via assignment of an entry date in the Customs database by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’). In addition, the Department confirmed the existence of QHD Sanhai and its U.S. customer. Initiation of Review In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), and based on information on the record, we are initiating a new shipper review for QHD Sanhai.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Documents Available for Review

    The Comprehensive Evaluation Report is the Forest Plan revision 
analysis document that provides an evaluation of current ecological, 
economic, and social conditions and trends; these contribute to 
sustainability within the Forest Service lands managed by the Lake 
Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU). Publication and review of the 
Comprehensive Evaluation Report (CER) formally launches LTBMU's Forest 
Plan Revision process. The information detailed in the CER analysis, 
and further distilled within the forest supervisor's management review 
and revision theme areas are provided for public and agency review and 
comment. This document is now available for review (see Public 
Participation and Collaboration subtopic).

Components of the Forest Plan

    As required under the National Forest Management Act, Terri 
Marceron, Forest Supervisor, LTBMU has made a determination that 
conditions exist that warrant a revision of the existing 1988 Forest 
Plan (see Forest Supervisor's Determination--Preliminary Need for 
Change Topics). The Management Review is the preamble to the 
Comprehensive Evaluation Report document; it describes the scope of the 
plan revision, rationale, and formal determination to proceed with 
revision of the LTBMU Forest Plan. The information contained in the 
CER, in concert with information acquired from substantive comments, 
will be used to structure a revised plan. The revised Forest Plan will 
include the following components: Desired conditions, objectives, 
guidelines, suitability of areas and special areas (Reference: CFR 
219.7).

Forest Supervisor's Determination--Preliminary Need for Change Topics

    Much of the direction contained in the 1988 Forest Plan is still 
valid. The parts of the plan that are working well will be carried 
forward into the revised Plan, limiting the revision to areas where new 
regulations and policy, new science, resource information, and changing 
social, economic, and ecologic conditions and trends have created a 
need for updated guidance. Through the public participation and 
collaboration process the Forest Supervisor has determined that the 
Forest Plan Revision will focus on four preliminary themes:
     Ecosystem restoration,
     Recreation management,
     Land use,
     Planning and adaptive management.

(Reference: CER Management Review; and CER Chapter 2)

Comment Requested

    The Forest Service is seeking public comments about the 
appropriateness of the specific preliminary Need for Change topics 
identified in the CER document. Public comments should fall within two 
specific areas: (1) Whether the scope and appropriate representation of 
the four major theme areas identified in the CER is addressed 
adequately, and with the appropriate science; and (2) Specific issue 
areas of importance to the public that were not addressed adequately in 
the information presented in the full CER document. Substantive 
comments received by 19 March 2007 will be of the most value in 
evaluating public response to the adequacy of the need for change 
themes outlined in the Comprehensive Evaluation Report.

Planning Process Schedule

    The revision process for the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit 
officially begins in January 2007 with the publication of this Notice 
of Initiation in the Federal Register. The final revised Forest Plan is 
scheduled to be issued for pre-decisional review in July 2008. Final 
approval of the revised LTBMU Forest Plan is scheduled to occur October 
2008. As of the publication date of this notice, it is the intent of 
the Forest Supervisor, Terri Marceron, consistent with national Forest 
Service policy, that the revised forest plan will be published as a 
Categorical Exclusion (Reference: Forest Service Handbook FSH 1909.12, 
Ch. 30, Jan. 31, 2006).

Responsible Official

    Terri Marceron, Forest Supervisor, Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit
