Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 68 / Friday, April 10, 2009 / Notices
for all shipments of CMC from Mexico
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act: 1)
the cash deposit rate for Amtex will be
the rate established in the final results
of review, unless that rate is less than
0.50 percent (de minimis within the
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1)), in
which case the cash deposit rate will be
zero; 2) if the exporter is not a firm
covered in this review or the less–thanfair–value (LTFV) investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and 3) if neither the
exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm
covered in this or any previous review
conducted by the Department, the cash
deposit rate will be the all–others rate
of 12.61 percent from the LTFV
investigation. See Notice of
Antidumping Duty Orders: Purified
Carboxymethylcellulose from Finland,
Mexico, the Netherlands and Sweden,
70 FR 39734 (July 11, 2005).
This notice also serves as a
preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f) 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 antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act
and 19 CFR 351.221.
Dated: April 2, 2009.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.

ACTION:
Notice; request for comments.
SUMMARY: The Assistant Regional
Administrator for Sustainable Fisheries,
Northeast Region, NMFS (Assistant
Regional Administrator), has made a
preliminary determination that an
Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP)
application contains all of the required
information and warrants further
consideration. This EFP would allow
two commercial fishing vessels to
temporarily retain undersize fish and
fish in excess of possession limits for
the purpose of data collection in
support of research conducted by the
University of Rhode Island (URI). The
Assistant Regional Administrator has
made a preliminary determination that
the activities authorized under this EFP
would be consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Summer Flounder,
Scup, and Black Sea Bass Fishery
Management Plan (FMP). However,
further review and consultation may be
necessary before a final determination is
made to issue an EFP. Therefore, NMFS
announces that the Assistant Regional
Administrator proposes to recommend
that an EFP be issued.
Regulations under the Magnuson–
Stevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act require publication of
this notification to provide interested
parties the opportunity to comment on
applications for proposed EFPs.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before April 27, 2009.
ADDRESSES: You may submit written
comments by any of the following
methods:

TED EFP.’’

Liaison, 978–281–9326.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Southern New England Collaborative
Research Initiative, URI was selected by
the Commercial Fisheries Research
Foundation to conduct a study titled,
‘‘Evaluation of a Modified Turtle
Excluder Device (TED) Design in the
Southern New England and Mid–
Atlantic Summer Trawl Fisheries.’’ The
primary objective of this experiment is
to evaluate the catch performance of a
summer flounder trawl fitted with a
TED. This objective would be
accomplished through comparative tows

between two summer flounder trawls,
one of which has the experimental TED.
URI proposes to employ two
commercial vessels that operate in the
summer flounder fishery to conduct this
research. Investigators propose to
conduct approximately 80, 90-minute
tows (40 paired tows) in the New
England and Mid–Atlantic regions over
the course of 22 sea days in the summer
of 2009, starting in early June.
Investigators would collect data on
estimated total catch weight, and weight
and length measurements on summer
flounder and other bycatch species. All
legal catch would be sold.
URI submitted a complete EFP
application on March 26, 2009,
requesting exemption from minimum
fish size and possession limit
regulations for the purpose of data
collection prior to discarding undersize
fish and fish above the vessel’s
possession limit. Aside from these
exemptions, all other elements of these
fishing trips would comply with fishing
regulations.
The applicant may request minor
modifications and extensions to the EFP
throughout the year. EFP modifications
and extensions may be granted without
further notice if they are deemed
essential to facilitate completion of the
proposed research and have minimal
impacts that do not change the scope or
impact of the initially approved EFP
request. Any fishing activity conducted
outside the scope of the exempted
fishing activity would be prohibited. If
the research project is terminated for
any reason prior to completion, any
unused funds collected from catch sold
to pay for research expenses may be
refunded to NOAA.
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.

Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries Service.
