Download as PDF erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with NOTICES 10214 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 43 / Friday, March 5, 2010 / Notices limits or quotas, capacity restrictions, and bycatch reduction requirements; (2) Overfishing of fish stocks shared by the United States, for which there are no applicable international conservation or management measures or in areas with no applicable international fishery management organization or agreement, that has adverse impacts on such stocks; and (3) Fishing activity that has an adverse impact on seamounts, hydrothermal vents, and cold water corals located beyond national jurisdiction, for which there are no applicable conservation or management measures or in areas with no applicable international fishery management organization or agreement. Additionally, the Secretary must identify in the biennial report those nations whose fishing vessels are engaged, or have been engaged during the preceding calendar year, in fishing activities either (1) in waters beyond any national jurisdiction that result in bycatch of a PLMR, or (2) beyond the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) that result in bycatch of a PLMR shared by the United States. In this context, PLMRs are defined as non-target fish, sea turtles, or marine mammals that are protected under U.S. law or international agreement, including the Marine Mammal Protection Act, the Endangered Species Act, the Shark Finning Prohibition Act, and the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna. PLMRs do not include species, except sharks, managed under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act, or any international fishery management agreement. (A list of species considered as PLMRs for this purpose is available online at: https://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/ msa2007/mrip.htm) The first biennial report was submitted to Congress in January 2009 and is available online at https:// www.nmfs.noaa.gov/msa2007/docs/ msralbienniallreportl011309.pdf. The report identified six nations for IUU fishing. The Moratorium Protection Act also requires the Secretary to establish procedures to certify whether each nation identified in the biennial report is taking appropriate corrective action to address IUU fishing and/or bycatch of PLMRs by fishing vessels of that nation. If a nation does not receive a positive certification by the Secretary, they could be subject to sanctions under the High Seas Driftnet Fisheries Enforcement Act (Enforcement Act)(16 U.S.C. 1826a). On January 14, 2009, NMFS published a VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:45 Mar 04, 2010 Jkt 220001 proposed rule to implement both the identification and certification procedures. (That proposed rule is available online at https:// www.nmfs.noaa.gov/msa2007/docs/ iuulbycatchlrule011409.pdf.)The rule provides information regarding the identification process and how the information solicited here will be used in that process. In fulfillment of its requirements under the Moratorium Protection Act, NMFS is preparing the second biennial report to Congress, which will identify nations whose fishing vessels are engaged in IUU fishing, or fishing practices that result in bycatch of PLMRs. NMFS is soliciting information from the public that could assist in its identification of nations engaged in activities that meet one or more of the three criteria described above for IUU fishing or one or more of the two criteria described above for PLMR bycatch. Information that may prove useful to NMFS includes: • Documentation (photographs, etc.) of IUU activity or PLMR bycatch; • Fishing vessel records; • Reports from off-loading facilities, port-side government officials, enforcement agents, military personnel, port inspectors, transshipment vessel workers and fish importers; • Government vessel registries; • IUU vessel lists from RFMOs; • RFMO catch documents and statistical document programs; • Appropriate certification programs; and • Reports from governments, international organizations, or nongovernmental organizations. NMFS will consider all available information, as appropriate, when making a determination whether or not to identify a particular nation in the biennial report to Congress. NMFS is particularly interested in information on IUU fishing activity and bycatch of PLMRs that occurred during 2009–2010. NMFS will consider several criteria when determining whether information is appropriate for use in making identifications, including but not limited to: • Corroboration of information; • Whether multiple sources have been able to provide information in support of an identification; • The methodology used to collect the information; • Specificity of the information provided; • Susceptibility of the information to falsification and alteration; and • Credibility of the individuals or organization providing the information. PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Information should be as specific as possible as this will assist NMFS in its review. Dated: March 1, 2010.

As explained in the memorandum from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, the Department has exercised its discretion to toll deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government from February 5, through February 12, 2010. Thus, the deadline for publishing this notice of initiation has been extended by seven days. The revised deadline for publishing this notice is March 8, 2010, which is the first business day after the extended deadline. See Memorandum to the Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import Administration, regarding ‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As a Result of the Government Closure During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated February 12, 2010. Initiation of New Shipper Reviews Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), the Department finds that Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog meet the threshold requirements for initiation of new shipper reviews of their shipments of wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC.

The Department intends to issue the preliminary results of these reviews no later than 180 days from the date of initiation, and the final results of these reviews no later than 270 days from the date of initiation.See 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 Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog, which will include a separate rate section. The review of each exporter will proceed if the response provides sufficient indication that the exporter is not subject to either de jure or de facto government control with respect to its exports of wooden bedroom furniture. We will instruct CBP to allow, at the option of the importer, the posting, until the completion of the review, of a bond or security in lieu of a cash deposit for certain entries of the subject merchandise from Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(e). Because Dongguan Huansheng, and Wanvog certified that they both produce and export the subject merchandise, the sales of which form the basis for their new shipper review requests, we will instruct CBP to permit the use of a bond only for entries of subject merchandise which the respondent both produced and exported. Because Cadman certified that it exported subject merchandise produced by Haining Changbei, the sales of which form the basis for Cadman’s request for a new shipper review, we will instruct CBP to permit the use of a bond only for entries of the subject merchandise produced by Haining Changbei and exported by Cadman in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(e).

Dongguan Huansheng and Wanvog certified that they are each the exporter 
and producer of, and Cadman certified that it is the exporter of, the 
subject merchandise upon which their respective request for a new 
shipper review was based.

merchandise exported by Cadman, certified that it did not export 
subject merchandise to the United States during the POI. In addition,

that, since the initiation of the investigation, they have never been 
affiliated with any PRC exporter or producer who exported wooden 
bedroom furniture to the United States during the POI, including those 
not individually examined during the investigation. As required by 19 
CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog, also 
certified that their export activities were not controlled by the 
central government of the PRC.
    In addition to the certifications described above, pursuant to 19 
CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iv), Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog submitted 
documentation establishing the following: (1) the date on which

United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog made no subsequent

    The Department conducted U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') database queries and confirmed that shipments of subject 
merchandise from Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog had entered the 
United States for consumption and that liquidation of such entries had 
been properly suspended for antidumping duties. The Department also 
confirmed by examining CBP data that Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and 
Wanvogs' entries were made during the POR as specified by the 
Department's regulations. See 19 CFR 351.214(g)(1)(i)(B). After 
examining CBP data, the Department requested additional information 
from Wanvog. See letter to Wanvog regarding, ``Request for New Shipper 
Review of Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of 
China,'' dated February 18, 2010. On February 25, 2010, Wanvog 
submitted its response to the Department's request for additional 
information. See Wanvog's letter regarding, ``New Shipper Review 
Request on Behalf of Wanvog Furniture (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.: Response to 
Supplemental Information Requests,'' dated February 25, 2010. For a

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), the Department will publish 
the notice of initiation of a new shipper review no later than the last 
day of the month following the anniversary month of the order. As 
explained in the memorandum from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Import Administration, the Department has exercised its discretion to 
toll deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal 
Government from February 5, through February 12, 2010. Thus, the 
deadline for publishing this notice of initiation has been extended by 
seven days. The revised deadline for publishing this notice is March 8, 
2010, which is the first business day after the extended deadline. See 
Memorandum to the Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import 
Administration, regarding ``Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As a

Initiation of New Shipper Reviews

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.214(d)(1), the Department finds that Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, 
and Wanvog meet the threshold requirements for initiation of new 
shipper reviews of their shipments of wooden bedroom furniture from the 
PRC. See Memorandum to the File through Abdelali Elouaradia, Director, 
AD/CVD Operations, Office 4: Initiation of AD New Shipper Review of 
Dongguan Huansheng Furniture Co., Ltd.: Wooden Bedroom from the 
People's Republic of China, dated concurrently with this notice; 
Memorandum to the File through Abdelali Elouaradia, Director, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office 4: Initiation of AD New Shipper Review of Hangzhou 
Cadman Trading Co., Ltd.: Wooden Bedroom from the People's Republic of 
China, dated concurrently with this notice; and Wanvog Checklist.
    The POR for the new shipper reviews of Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, 
and Wanvog is January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009. See 19 CFR 
351.214(g)(1)(i)(B). The Department intends to issue the preliminary 
results of these reviews no later than 180 days from the date of 
initiation, and the final results of these reviews no later than 270 
days from the date of initiation.See 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 Dongguan Huansheng, Cadman, and Wanvog, which 
will include a separate rate section. The review of each exporter will 
proceed if the response provides sufficient indication that the 
exporter is not subject to either de jure or de facto government 
control with respect to its exports of wooden bedroom furniture.
    We will instruct CBP to allow, at the option of the importer, the 
posting, until the completion of the review, of a bond or security in
