Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 226 / Friday, November 21, 2008 / Notices
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers for whom this review is
being rescinded, as of the publication
date of this notice, of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues
to govern business proprietary
information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification
of the return/destruction of APO
materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and terms of an APO is a violation
which may be subject to sanctions.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: November 17, 2008.

USFWS-Stockton requests a 3–year
permit (13791) for take of juvenile
Sacramento River winter-run Chinook
salmon, Central Valley spring-run
Chinook salmon, and Central Valley
steelhead associated with research on
salmonid migratory behavior at
monitoring locations in the Sacramento
River basin and in the Sacramento-San
Joaquin Delta, in California. USFWSStockton requests authorization for an
estimated annual take of 3,000 juvenile
Central Valley salmonids for three
consecutive years resulting from capture
(by seine, trawl, gill and fyke net),
handling, anesthetizing, measuring,
tissue sampling, scale sampling, tag
scanning, and release of fish. A
subsample of incidental mortalities may
be retained by the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service office in Red Bluff, CA
as a teaching collection and as a source
of tissues for genetic and life history
analysis. USFWS-Stockton requests
authorization for an estimated total take
of 39 adult and 2591 juvenile winter-run
Chinook salmon (that includes 12.8
percent and 2.0 percent incidental
mortality, respectively), 29 adult and
12317 juvenile spring-run Chinook
salmon (that includes 17.2 percent and
1.2 percent incidental mortality), 49
adult and 632 juvenile steelhead (12.2
percent and 3.5 percent incidental
mortality), and 14 adult and 15 juvenile
green sturgeon (no associated mortality),
resulting from capture, handling,
measuring, and releasing of fish.
FISHBIO requests a 5–year permit
(14092) for incidental take of threatened
Central Valley steelhead in the lower
Stanislaus River associated with a study
that aims to characterize fish species
composition, abundance, and seasonal
distribution; evaluate juvenile Chinook
salmon rearing extent, timing, and
locations; and determine potential
limiting factors for juvenile rearing and
mitigation. FISHBIO requests
authorization for an estimated annual
take of 34 adult and 249 juvenile
steelhead (that includes 5.9 percent and
5.6 percent incidental mortality,
respectively) resulting from capture by
seine, pack or boat electrofishing;
handling, measuring, and releasing of
fish.
