A–4 Siting/construction/operation of
microwave/radio communication towers
less than 200 feet in height without guy
wires on previously disturbed ground.
DOC, through NTIA is involved in
issuing grants for siting, construction,
operation, and maintenance,
communications systems and similar
electronic equipment. These types of
electronic equipment are essential to
support the nationwide
telecommunications network.
This CE is supported by Findings of
No Significant Impact on the recently
completed Programmatic EA for NTIA
and on EAs from the U.S. Department of
Energy. Furthermore, this CE is
supported by long-standing categorical
exclusions from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
A–5 Retrofit/upgrade existing
microwave/radio communication towers
that do not require ground disturbance.
This CE is supported by the recently
completed Programmatic EA for NTIA
with a Finding of No Significant Impact
and an EA for the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration, also with a
Finding of No Significant Impact.
A–6 Adding fiber optic cable to
transmission structures or burying fiber
optic cable in existing transmission line
rights-of-way.
This CE is supported by a longstanding categorical exclusion with the
U.S. Department of Energy and Findings
of No Significant Impact on
Environmental Assessments prepared
for the Bureau of Land Management,
Vandenberg Air Force Base, the U.S.
Park Service, and the Tennessee Valley
Authority.
A–7 Acquisition, installation,
operation, and removal of
communications systems, data
processing equipment, and similar
electronic equipment.
This CE is supported by a legacy
categorical exclusion from the U.S.
Department of Energy and Findings of
No Significant Impact on several
Description Memorandums from the
U.S. Department of Energy.
A–8 Planning activities and
classroom-based training and classroombased exercises using existing

A–10 Siting, construction (or
modification), and operation of support
buildings and support structures
(including, but not limited to, trailers
and prefabricated buildings) within or
contiguous to an already developed area
(where active utilities and currently
used roads are readily accessible). This
CE does not apply where the project
must be submitted to the National
Capital Planning Commission (NCPC)
for review and NCPC determines that it
does not have an applicable Categorical
Exclusion.
This CE is supported by a longstanding categorical exclusion with the
U.S. Department of Energy and two
Memoranda for File for relevant projects
and their supporting documentation
that indicated insignificant impacts,
also with the U.S. Department of
Energy.
A–11 Personnel, fiscal, management,
and administrative activities, such as
recruiting, processing, paying,
recordkeeping, resource management,
budgeting, personnel actions, and travel.

Continuation of Antidumping Duty
Order on Certain Frozen Fish Fillets
From the Socialist Republic of Vietnam
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
DATES: Effective Date: July 10, 2009.
SUMMARY: As a result of the
determinations by the Department of
Commerce (‘‘Department’’) and the
International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’)
that revocation of the antidumping duty
order on certain frozen fish fillets from
the Socialist Republic of Vietnam
(‘‘Vietnam’’) would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, the Department is
publishing a notice of continuation of
the antidumping duty order.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 1,
2008, the Department published the
notice of initiation of the sunset review
of the antidumping duty order on
certain frozen fish fillets from Vietnam
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘Act’’). See
Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Review, 73 FR 37411 (July 1, 2008).
As a result of its review, the
Department determined that revocation
of the antidumping duty order on
certain frozen fish fillets from Vietnam
would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and, therefore,
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
margins likely to prevail should the
order be revoked. See Certain Frozen
Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic
of Vietnam: Notice of Final Results of
Expedited Sunset Review of
Antidumping Duty Order, 74 FR 5819
(February 2, 2009).
On July 6, 2009, the ITC determined,
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act,
that revocation of the antidumping duty
order on certain frozen fish fillets from
Vietnam would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
future. See Certain Frozen Fish Fillets
from Vietnam; Determination, 74 FR
31975 (July 6, 2009), and USITC
Publication 4083 (June 2009).
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this Order is
frozen fish fillets, including regular,
shank, and strip fillets and portions
thereof, whether or not breaded or
marinated, of the species Pangasius
Bocourti, Pangasius Hypophthalmus
(also known as Pangasius Pangasius),
and Pangasius Micronemus. Frozen fish
fillets are lengthwise cuts of whole fish.
The fillet products covered by the scope
include boneless fillets with the belly
flap intact (‘‘regular’’ fillets), boneless
fillets with the belly flap removed
(‘‘shank’’ fillets), boneless shank fillets
cut into strips (‘‘fillet strips/finger’’),
which include fillets cut into strips,
chunks, blocks, skewers, or any other
shape. Specifically excluded from the
scope are frozen whole fish (whether or
not dressed), frozen steaks, and frozen
belly-flap nuggets. Frozen whole
dressed fish are deheaded, skinned, and
eviscerated. Steaks are bone-in, crosssection cuts of dressed fish. Nuggets are
the belly-flaps. The subject merchandise
will be hereinafter referred to as frozen
‘‘basa’’ and ‘‘tra’’ fillets, which are the
Vietnamese common names for these
species of fish. These products are

classifiable under tariff article codes
1604.19.4000, 1604.19.5000,
0305.59.4000, 0304.29.6033 (Frozen
Fish Fillets of the species Pangasius
including basa and tra) of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’).1 This Order
covers all frozen fish fillets meeting the
above specification, regardless of tariff
classification. Although the HTSUS
subheading is provided for convenience
and customs purposes, our written
description of the scope of the Order is
dispositive.
Continuation of the Order
As a result of these determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department
hereby orders the continuation of the
antidumping order on certain frozen
fish fillets from Vietnam. United States
Customs and Border Protection will
continue to collect antidumping duty
cash deposits at the rates in effect at the
time of entry for all imports of subject
merchandise. The effective date of the
continuation of the order will be the
date of publication in the Federal
Register of this notice of continuation.
Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act,
the Department intends to initiate the
next five-year review of the order not
later than 30 days prior to the fifth
anniversary of the effective date of
continuation.
This five-year (sunset) review and this
notice are in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: July 7, 2009.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.
