responsibilities under the P&S Act. The
information is necessary to monitor and
examine financial, competitive, and
trade practices in the livestock, meat
packing, and poultry industries. The
purpose of this notice is to solicit
comments from the public concerning
our changes to the Annual and Special
Reports (Series 3000).
The revisions to the Series 3000 forms
include three general types of changes.
First, each form has been redesigned to
enhance its appearance and logical flow
to facilitate clarity and data entry.
Consistent with this goal, the forms
have been formatted in a similar style.
Second, the information collected on
the Series 3000 forms has been reduced
and a few new information collection
items have been added. While pertinent
information was retained, unnecessary
information was deleted, and new
information to help Packers and
Stockyards Program analyze Annual
Report information was added. The
third general change is to combine
forms when possible so that a regulated
entity would not have to complete
multiple annual forms, and two forms
have been discontinued (P&SP–3110,
‘‘Supplemental Balance Sheet—
Packers’’ and P&SP–3500, ‘‘Statement of
Accounts Payable for Livestock—
Special Report’’). A new form (P&SP–
7003, ‘‘Special Report for Review of
Dealer, Market Agency, and Packer’’)
that is shorter than the annual report
form, has been created to collect
information to allow GIPSA to establish
the initial bond amount for businesses
that register during the course of the
year.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
and recordkeeping burden for this
collection of information is estimated to
average 8.5 hours per response.
Respondents (Affected Public):
Livestock auction markets, livestock
dealers, packer buyers, meat packers,
and live poultry dealers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
10,950.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 3.3.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 307,148 hours.
As required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
and its implementing regulations (5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1)(i)), we specifically request
comments on:
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(d) Ways to minimize the burden on
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for the Office of Management and
Budget approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506 and 5 CFR

Honey from Argentina: Notice of

Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 7, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

0649, respectively.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On December 3, 2007, the Department
of Commerce (the Department)
published in the Federal Register its
notice of opportunity to request an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on honey from
Argentina. See Antidumping or
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
to Request Administrative Review, 72
FR 67889 (December 3, 2007). In
response, on December 31, 2007, the
American Honey Producers Association
and the Sioux Honey Association
(collectively, petitioners) requested an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on honey from
Argentina for the period December 1,
2006 through November 30, 2007. On
January 28, 2008, the Department
published a notice of initiation of this
administrative review. See Initiation of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews and Request for
Revocation in Part, 73 FR 4829 (January
28, 2008). The current deadline for the
preliminary results of this review is
September 2, 2008.
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Tariff Act),
requires the Department to complete the
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested. However,
if it is not practicable to complete the
review within this time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act allows the
Department to extend the 245-day time
PO 00000
Frm 00008
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
limit for the preliminary results to a
maximum of 365 days.
The Department has determined it is
not practicable to complete this review
within the statutory time limit because
we require additional time to conduct
sales below–cost investigations of three
respondents. We also require additional
time to fully develop the record and
analyze information related to the
request for partial revocation of the
order with respect to Seylinco, S.A. For
these reasons, it is impracticable to
complete the preliminary results of this
administrative review within the
originally–specified time limit.
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for completion
of the preliminary results of this
administrative review until no later than
December 19, 2008, which is 354 days
from the last day of the anniversary
month. We intend to issue the final
results no later than 120 days after
publication of the preliminary results
notice.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A)
and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act.
Dated: June 30, 2008.
