government relationship that exists
between AIAN tribal governments and
the Census Bureau.
This relationship is based on the U.S.
Constitution, federal treaties, policy,
law, court decisions, and the ongoing
political relationship among tribes and
the federal government. The
relationship results in a federal trust
responsibility to federally-recognized
tribal governments.
The foundation for this policy
statement is the White House
Memorandum of September 23, 2004,
‘‘Government-to-Government Relations
with Native American Tribal
Governments’’ and the AIAN policy of
the DOC of March 30, 1995. This policy
is for internal management only and
does not grant or vest any right to any
party in respect to any federal action,
not otherwise granted or vested by
existing law or regulations.
II. Definitions
Federally recognized Indian Tribe:
Any AIAN, Band, Nation, Pueblo, or
other organized group or community,
including any Alaska Native village, as
defined or established pursuant to the
Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act
(Title 43, United States Code (U.S.C.),
Chapter 33, Section 1601 et seq.),
acknowledged by the federal
government to constitute a tribe with a
government-to-government relationship
with the United States and eligible for
the programs, services, and other
relationships established by the United
States for indigenous people because of
their status as American Indian and
Alaska Native tribes, Bands, Nations,
Pueblos, or communities.
American Indian or Alaska Native
Tribal Government: The recognized
government of an Indian tribe and any
affiliated or component band
government of such tribe that has been
determined eligible for specific services
by Congress or officially recognized by
the U.S. Department of the Interior in a
Notice (‘‘Indian Entities Recognized and
Eligible to Receive Services from the
United States Bureau of Indian Affairs’’)
published in the Federal Register on
November 25, 2005 (70 FR 71194).
Trust Responsibility: Includes, but is
not limited to: promotion and protection
of tribal treaty rights, federallyrecognized reserved rights, and other
federally recognized interests of the
beneficiary American Indian and Alaska
Native governments; determining,
documenting, notifying, and interacting
with tribal governments with regard to
the impact of Census Bureau programs,
policies and regulations to protect
American Indian and Alaska Native
traditional and cultural life ways, treaty,

and other federally recognized and
reserved rights.
III. Policy Principles
The following policy statements
provide general guidelines to Census
Bureau employees for actions dealing
with AIAN governments.
1. The Census Bureau recognizes the
unique government-to-government
relationship between the United States
and federally recognized AIAN tribal
governments, as affirmed by the
September 23, 2004, White House
Memorandum for the Heads of
Executive Departments and Agencies,
and the American Indian and Alaska
Native Policy of the DOC.
2. The Census Bureau recognizes each
tribal government as a functioning
governing body that the Census Bureau
will work with to count and collect data
as accurately as possible, of all residents
living in AIAN areas.
3. The Census Bureau recognizes and
invites tribal governments’ involvement
in the Census Bureau planning process
for censuses and surveys toward
ensuring the most accurate counts and
data for the AIAN populations.
4. The Census Bureau’s procedures for
outreach, notice, and consultation will
ensure involvement of AIAN tribal
governments, to the extent practicable
and permitted by law, before making
decisions or implementing policies,
rules, or programs that affect federally
recognized tribal governments.
5. The Census Bureau will continue
its partnerships with tribal governments
to enhance awareness of all censuses,
surveys, and geography programs—
particularly those including residents
living in AIAN areas.
6. The Census Bureau recognizes that
there are distinct cultural practices,
religious beliefs, traditions, climate
conditions, as well as a tribe’s authority
over its land areas that must be
considered and abided by when
conducting any censuses or survey in
AIAN areas.
7. The Census Bureau recognizes the
importance of effective and efficient
coordination with other federal agencies
in the planning process of any censuses
or surveys that will include AIAN tribal
governments.
8. The Census Bureau acknowledges
its responsibility to provide accurate
demographic and economic data on
AIAN populations and their businesses.
The Census Bureau will work with
tribal governments and other partners to
encourage the participation of every
resident.
9. The Census Bureau will consult
with AIAN tribal governments before
making decisions or implementing

Frm 00009

programs that may affect tribes to ensure
that tribal rights and concerns are
addressed. Consultation will provide,
but is not limited to, mutually agreed
upon protocols for timely
communication, coordination,
cooperation, and collaboration.
Therefore, the Director of the Census
Bureau hereby directs all directorates
and their components (divisions,
branches, and offices) to implement this
policy by incorporating all of the above
principles in their interactions with
federally recognized AIAN tribal
governments.

Postponement of Final Determinations
The Department of Commerce
(Department) is postponing the final
determinations in the antidumping duty
investigations of lemon juice from
Argentina and Mexico. These
investigations were initiated on October
11, 2006. See Initiation of Antidumping
Duty Investigations: Lemon Juice from
Argentina and Mexico, 71 FR 61710
(October 19, 2006). On April 26, 2007,
the Department published its
preliminary determinations in these
investigations. See Lemon Juice from
Argentina: Preliminary Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value and
Affirmative Preliminary Determination
of Critical Circumstances, 72 FR 20820
(April 26, 2007), and Notice of
Preliminary Determinations of Sales at

Department would issue its final
determinations no later than 75 days
after the date on which the Department
issued its preliminary determinations.
Section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii) provide that a final
determination may be postponed until
no later than 135 days after the date of
the publication of the preliminary
determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a
request for such postponement is made
by exporters who account for a
significant proportion of exports of the
subject merchandise. Additionally, 19
CFR 351.210(e)(2) requires that requests
by a respondent for postponement of a
final determination be accompanied by
a request for an extension of the
provisional measures from a four–
month period to not more than six
months.
On April 25, 2007, in accordance with
section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii) and (e)(2),
Citrusvil, S.A. and S.A. San Miguel
A.G.I.C.y F. (the two respondents in the
investigation of lemon juice from
Argentina) requested that the
Department: (1) postpone the final
determination in the Argentina
investigation, and (2) extend the
provisional measures period in the
Argentina investigation from four
months to a period not longer than six
months. These two companies account
for a significant proportion of exports of
subject merchandise from Argentina. In
addition, on April 26, 2007, The Coca–
Cola Company and a subsidiary, The
Coca–Cola Export Corporation, Mexico
Branch (respondent in the investigation
of lemon juice from Mexico), also
requested that the Department: (1)
postpone the final determination in the
Mexico investigation, and (2) extend the
provisional measures period in the
Mexico investigation from four months
to a period not longer than six months.
This company accounts for a significant
proportion of exports of subject
merchandise from Mexico.
Accordingly, pursuant to section
735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(2)(ii), the Department is
postponing the final determinations
until no later than 135 days after the
publication of the preliminary
determinations in the Federal Register
for the following reasons: (1) the
preliminary determinations in these
investigations were affirmative; (2) the
requesting producers/exporters account
for a significant proportion of exports of
the subject merchandise in these
investigations and they requested the
extension of provisional measures; and
(3) no compelling reasons for denial

exist. The new statutory deadline for the
final determinations is September 8,
2007. Because September 8, 2007, is a
Saturday, the Department will issue the
final determinations no later than
September 10, 2007. Provisional
measures will be extended in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2)
and section 733(d) of the Act.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to sections 777(i) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.210(g).
