SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The notice announcing the
antidumping duty order on chlorinated
isocyanurates from the PRC was
published on June 24, 2005. See Notice
of Antidumping Duty Order:
Chlorinated Isocyanurates From the
People’s Republic of China, 70 FR 36561
(June 24, 2005). On December 22, 2008,
we received a timely request for a new
shipper review from Juancheng Kangtai
Chemical Co., Ltd. (‘‘Kangtai’’) in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(c) and
351.214(d)(2). Kangtai has certified that
it produced all of the chlorinated
isocyanurates it exported which is the
basis for its request for a new shipper
review.
Pursuant to the requirements set forth
in 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), in its request
for a new shipper review, Kangtai, as an
exporter and producer, certified that (1)
it did not export chlorinated
isocyanurates to the United States
during the period of investigation
(‘‘POI’’); (2) since the initiation of the
investigation, Kangtai has never been
affiliated with any company that
exported subject merchandise to the
United States during the POI; and (3) its
export activities were not controlled by
the central government of the PRC.
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.214(b)(2)(iv), Kangtai submitted
documentation establishing the
following: (1) The date on which it first
shipped chlorinated isocyanurates for
export to the United States and the date
on which the chlorinated isocyanurates
were first entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption; (2) the
volume of its first shipment; and (3) the
date of its first sale to an unaffiliated
customer in the United States.

Initiation of New Shipper Review
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
‘‘Act’’) and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), we
find that the request submitted by
Kangtai meets the threshold
requirements for initiation of a new
shipper review for shipments of
chlorinated isocyanurates from the PRC
produced and exported by Kangtai. See
Memorandum to the File through
Wendy Frankel, Office Director, New
Shipper Initiation Checklist, dated
January 21, 2009. The POR is June 1,
2008, through November 30, 2008. See
19 CFR 351.214(g)(1)(i)(B). The
Department will conduct this review
according to the deadlines set forth in
section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act.

It is the Department’s usual practice,
in cases involving non-market
economies, to require that a company
seeking to establish eligibility for an
antidumping duty rate separate from the
country-wide rate provide evidence of
de jure and de facto absence of
government control over the company’s
export activities. Accordingly, we will
issue questionnaires to Kangtai, which
will include separate rate sections. The
review will proceed if the response
provides sufficient indication that
Kangtai is not subject to either de jure
or de facto government control with
respect to its export of chlorinated
isocyanurates.
On August 17, 2006, the Pension
Protection Act of 2006, Public Law 109–
280, (‘‘H.R. 4’’), was signed into law.
Section 1632 of H.R. 4 temporarily
suspends the authority of the
Department to instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection to collect a bond
or other security in lieu of a cash
deposit in new shipper reviews during
the period April 1, 2006, through June
30, 2009. Therefore, the posting of a
bond or other security under section
751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act in lieu of a
cash deposit is not available in this case.
Importers of chlorinated isocyanurates
exported and produced by Kangtai must
continue to post a cash deposit of
estimated antidumping duties on each
entry of subject merchandise at the PRCwide rate of 285.63 percent.
Interested parties requiring access to
proprietary information in this new
shipper review should submit
applications for disclosure under
administrative protective order in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and
351.306.
This initiation and notice are in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and
351.221(c)(1)(i).
Dated: January 21, 2009.

Statement; Scoping Meetings.
SUMMARY: Fagatele Bay National Marine
Sanctuary (FBNMS or Sanctuary) was
designated in April of 1986 in response
to a proposal from the American Samoa
Government to the (then) National
Marine Sanctuary Program. FBNMS
protects 163 acres (0.25 square miles) of
vibrant tropical coral reef ecosystem off
the southwest coast of Tutuila Island,
American Samoa. The present
management plan was written as part of
the sanctuary designation process and
published in the Final Environmental
Impact Statement in 1984. In
accordance with Section 304(e) of the
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:54 Jan 29, 2009
Jkt 217001
National Marine Sanctuaries Act, as
amended, (NMSA) (16 U.S.C. 1431 et
seq.), the Office of National Marine
Sanctuaries (ONMS) of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) is initiating a
review of the FBNMS management plan,
to evaluate substantive progress toward
implementing the goals for the
Sanctuary, to initiate discussions on
possible site expansion, and to make
revisions to the plan and regulations as
necessary to fulfill the purposes and
policies of the NMSA. NOAA will
conduct public scoping meetings to
gather information and other comments
from individuals, organizations, and
government agencies on the scope, types
and significance of issues related to the
Sanctuary’s management plan and
regulations, and possible site expansion
(including expansion to include the
Rose Atoll Marine National Monument
designated on January 6, 2009). The
scoping meetings are scheduled as
detailed below.
DATES: Written comments should be
received on or before March 26, 2009.
Scoping meetings will be held on:
(1) February 10th, 4–6:30 p.m.,
Convention Center, Utulei, Tutuila,
American Samoa.
(2) February 11th, 4–6:30 p.m.,
Fagaitua High School Gym, Fagaitua,
Tutuila, American Samoa.
(3) February 12th, 4–6:30 p.m.,
American Samoa Community College,
Mapusaga, Tutuila, American Samoa.
ADDRESSES: Written comments may be
sent to the Fagatele Bay National Marine
Sanctuary (Management Plan Review),
P.O. Box 4318, Pago Pago, American
Samoa 96799; or faxed to (808) 397–
2662. Electronic comments may be sent
to fagatelebay@noaa.gov.
Comments will be available for public
review at the following street address:
Fagatele Bay National Marine
Sanctuary, 1 Convention Center Circle,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
proposed revised management plan will
PO 00000

likely involve changes to existing
policies of the Sanctuary in order to
address contemporary issues and
challenges, and to better protect and
manage the Sanctuary’s resources and
qualities. The review process is
composed of four major stages: (1)
Information collection and
characterization; (2) preparation and
release of a draft management plan/
environmental impact statement, and
any proposed amendments to the
regulations; (3) public review and
comment; and (4) preparation and
release of a final management plan/
environmental impact statement, and
any final amendments to the
regulations. In the event that the
potential impacts of new actions
described in the management plan do
not warrant the need for an
environmental impact statement, NOAA
will publish the appropriate
environmental analysis and notify the
public. Depending upon the complexity
and level of any site expansion, NOAA
anticipates completion of the revised
management plan and concomitant
documents will require approximately
thirty-six to forty-eight months.
Preliminary Priority Topics
NOAA, in consultation with the
American Samoa Department of
Commerce, has prepared a list of
preliminary priority topics. This list
represents our best professional
judgment of the most important issues
NOAA should consider in preparation
of a new FBNMS management plan. We
are interested in the public’s comments
on these topics, as well as any other
topics of interest to the public or other
agencies. It is important to note that this
list does not preclude or in any way
limit the consideration of additional
topics raised through public comment,
government-to-government
consultations, and discussions with
partner agencies.
Improved Partnerships—Recent
initiatives regarding marine managed
areas provide the Sanctuary with new
opportunities to strengthen
partnerships, particularly with
Territorial and Federal agencies, the
American Samoa Community College,
and other entities. The Sanctuary will
work in active partnership to provide a
more transparent, cooperative, and
coordinated management structure of
marine resources within Territorial and
federal jurisdictions.
Characterization and Monitoring—
There is a need to develop an
understanding of baseline conditions of
marine resources within the sanctuary,
ecosystem functions, and status and
trends of biological and socioeconomic
