The Rural Development State Offices
will utilize the project selection criteria
for applicants in accordance with
§ 1944.679.
In addition to the criteria established
in 7 CFR part 1944.679 and in an effort
to implement USDA’s nationwide
initiative to promote renewable energy
and energy conservation, Rural
Development (RD) has adopted

incentives for energy generation and
energy conservation. Participation in
these nationwide initiatives is
voluntary, but is strongly encouraged.
Energy Generation. Applicants will be
awarded points if the proposal includes
the installation of energy generation
systems to be funded by a third party.
The proposal must include an overview
of the energy generation system being
proposed. Evidence that an energy
generation system has been funded by a
third party and that it has a quantifiable
positive impact on energy consumption
will be required. (5 points)
Energy Conservation. Applicants will
be awarded points to construct (or
substantially rehabilitate) housing that
earns the ENERGY STAR label for new
residential construction. Units earning
the ENERGY STAR label must be
independently verified to meet
guidelines for energy efficiency as set by
the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency. All procedures used in
verifying a unit for the ENERGY STAR
label must comply with National Home
Energy Ratings System (HERS)
guidelines. ENERGY STAR guidelines
for residential construction apply to
homes that are three stories or less and
single or low-rise multi-family
residential buildings.
The Applicant will include in the
narrative an explanation of how they
plan to incorporate ENERGY STAR.
Construction plans pertaining to energy
efficiency must be developed with,
reviewed, and accepted by a HERS
certified rater, the contractor, and the
owner. Progress inspections must be
made at appropriate times by a HERS
certified rater to ensure that the housing
is being constructed or rehabilitated
according to ENERGY STAR
specifications. In order to receive final
payment, applicants will be required to
submit the appropriate rating reports
from the HERS rater to RD as evidence
that the housing has been constructed to
meet the standards of ENERGY STAR.
In the event that housing does not meet
ENERGY STAR guidelines for new
residential construction, the Agency
shall, at its discretion, deduct 5 points
from future funding proposals. For
further information about ENERGY
STAR, see https://www.energystar.gov or
call the following toll-free numbers:
(888) 782–7939 or (888) 588–9920
(TTY). (5 points)
In the event more than one
preapplication receives the same
amount of points, those preapplications
will then be ranked based on the actual
percentage figure used for determining
the points. Further, in the event that
preapplications are still tied, then those
pre-applications still tied will be ranked
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
based on the percentage for HPG fund
use (low to high). Further, for
applications where assistance to rental
properties or cooperatives is proposed,
those still tied will be further ranked
based on the number of years the units
are available for occupancy under the
program (a minimum of 5 years is
required).
For this part, ranking will be based
from most to least number of years.
Finally, if there is still a tie, then a
lottery system will be used.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background
On September 29, 2006, the U.S.
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) published a notice of
initiation of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on
corrosion–resistant carbon steel flat
products from Korea, covering the
period August 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006.
See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 71 FR 57465 (September 29,
2006). The preliminary results of this
review are currently due no later than
May 3, 2007.
Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to make a
preliminary determination within 245
days after the last day of the anniversary
month of an order or finding for which
a review is requested. Section
E:\FR\FM\19APN1.SGM
19APN1
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 75 / Thursday, April 19, 2007 / Notices
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act further states that
if it is not practicable to complete the
review within the time period specified,
the administering authority may extend
the 245-day period to issue its
preliminary results by up to 120 days.
We determine that completion of the
preliminary results of this review within
the 245-day period is not practicable for
the following reasons. This review
covers three companies, and to conduct
the sales and cost analyses for each
company requires the Department to
gather, analyze and verify a significant
amount of information pertaining to
each company’s sales practices,
manufacturing costs and corporate
relationships. Given the number and
complexity of issues in this case, and in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act, we are extending the time
period for issuing the preliminary
results of review by 120 days. Therefore,
the preliminary results are now due no
later than August 31, 2007. The final
results continue to be due 120 days after
publication of the preliminary results.
