also reduce fuel continuity in areas
adjacent to private lands. Treatment
objectives would be achieved though a
combination of the following activities
(more than one treatment may occur on
a single acre): mechanical thinning
(approximately 1,300 acres), prescribed
burning of activity fuels (approximately
2,100 acres), grapple piling of activity
fuels (approximately 1,000 acres) and
yarding with tops attached. Noncommercial thinning by hand or
mechanical methods would remove
trees that are less than 10 inches
diameter at breast height in stands with
excess ladder fuels (approximately 200
acres).
Road Management—To accomplish
implementation of proposed activities
approximately 32 miles of closed system
roads and 45 miles of seasonally open
roads would be used as haul routes. All
system roads would remain the same
after project implementation, closed
roads would continue to be closed and
seasonally open roads would continue
with that designation. Approximately
3.0 miles of temporary road would be
constructed, of which 1.4 miles would
be constructed over previous road
templates. All temporary roads would
be decommissioned after project activity
use. No new road construction is
proposed.
Danger Tree Removal—Danger trees
would be felled and removed along all
previously described haul routes used
for timber sale activity. If considered
economically feasible, they would be
sold as part of a timber sale. Danger
trees within Riparian Habitat
Conservation Areas (RHCAs) would not
be removed; they would be cut and left
to provide additional coarse woody
debris.
Landscape Prescribed Fire—
Landscape prescribed fire would occur
across approximately 3,000 acres within
the project planning area. This
treatment would reintroduce fire to a
fire-dependent ecosystem to lessen the
effects of a future uncharacteristic large
wildfire and improve forage quality for
big game. In the project planning area,
fire intensities would be kept low by
keeping fire out of the overstory and
burning mainly surface fuels. Individual
tree and group torching would likely
occur in areas where there is sufficient
ladder fuels and in timber stands with
high occurrences of mistletoe. Upon
completion the area would likely be a
mosaic of unburned, lightly burned,
moderately burned, and intensely
burned patches.

alternative way to achieve the desired
outcome. No Forest Plan amendment is
proposed.
Scoping Process
This notice of intent initiates the
scoping process, which guides the
development of the environmental
impact statement. Comments and input
regarding this proposed action are being
requested from the public and other
interested parties in conjunction with
this notice of intent. The comment
period will be open for thirty days,
beginning on the date of publication of
this notice of intent. Response to the
draft environmental impact statement
will be sought from interested tribes and
public beginning approximately in
September 2009.
It is important that reviewers provide
their comments at such times and in
such a manner that they are useful to
the agency’s preparation of the
environmental impact statement.
Therefore, comments should be
provided prior to the close of the
comment period and should clearly
articulate the reviewer’s concerns and
comments. The submission of timely

reviewer’s ability to participate in
subsequent administrative appeal or

Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp
from Ecuador: Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
frozen warmwater shrimp from Ecuador
with respect to 81 companies. The
respondents which the Department
selected for individual examination are
Promarisco, S.A. (Promarisco) and
Sociedad Nacional de Galapagos, S.A.
(Songa). The respondents which were
not selected for individual examination
are listed in the ‘‘Preliminary Results of
Review’’ section of this notice. This is
the third administrative review of this
order. The period of review (POR)
covers February 1, 2007, through August
14, 2007.
We preliminarily determine that sales
made to the United States by Promarisco
and Songa have been made below
normal value (NV). In addition, based
on the preliminary results for the
respondents selected for individual
examination, we have determined a
preliminary weighted–average margin
for those companies that were not
individually examined.
If the preliminary results are adopted
in our final results of administrative
review, we will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. Interested parties are invited to
comment on the preliminary results.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 9, 2009.
