ACTION: Notice; public meeting. SUMMARY: The New England Fishery Management Council’s (Council) Joint Groundfish/Scallop Committee will meet to consider actions affecting New England fisheries in the exclusive economic zone (EEZ). DATES: The meeting will be held on Monday, April 5, 2010 at 9 a.m. ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held at the Seaport Hotel, One Seaport Lane, Boston, MA 02210; telephone: (617) 385–4000; fax: (617) 385–4001. Council address: New England Fishery Management Council, 50 Water Street, Mill 2, Newburyport, MA 01950. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul J. Howard, Executive Director, New VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:18 Mar 11, 2010 Jkt 220001 England Fishery Management Council; telephone: (978) 465–0492. The items of discussion in the committee’s agenda are as follows: 1. The Joint Groundfish/Scallop Committee of the New England Fishery Management Council will meet to begin the preparation of a management action to facilitate the transfer of yellowtail flounder allocations between the groundfish and scallop industries. Yellowtail flounder is a target species for groundfish vessels, and is an incidental catch for scallop vessels. With the implementation of Annual Catch Limits in 2010, fishing opportunities of both fleets can be constrained by decisions on the how yellowtail flounder is allocated. Developing a mechanism to allow the transfer of yellowtail flounder between these fisheries may facilitate their respective activities and may reduce allocation issues between the two fleets. The Committee will develop a problem statement for the action, identify measurable goals and objectives, and will identify management alternatives. One alternative the Committee will probably develop would allow the formation of sectors within the scallop fishery for the sole purpose of exchanging yellowtail flounder with groundfish sectors established under the provisions of the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan. Other alternatives may also be developed by the Committee. Committee recommendations will be presented to the Council at a future date. 2. Other business may also be discussed. Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come before this group for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically identified in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the Council’s intent to take final action to address the emergency.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: Initiation On July 29, 2009, the Department received a petition concerning imports of bricks from the PRC filed by Resco Products, Inc. (‘‘Petitioner’’). See ‘‘Petition for the Imposition of Antidumping Duties: Certain Magnesia Carbon Bricks from the People’s Republic of China,’’ dated July 29, 2009. The Department initiated this VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:18 Mar 11, 2010 Jkt 220001 investigation on August 25, 2009. See Certain Magnesia Carbon Bricks from the People’s Republic of China and Mexico: Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigations, 74 FR 42852 (August 25, 2009) (‘‘Initiation’’). On September 22, 2009, the United States International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) issued its affirmative preliminary determination that there is a reasonable indication that an industry in the United States is materially injured by reason of imports from the PRC of bricks. See Certain Magnesia Carbon Bricks from China and Mexico: Investigation Nos. 701–TA–468 and 731–TA–1166–1167 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 4100 (September 2009). Respondent Selection In the Initiation, the Department stated that it intended to select respondents based on quantity and value (‘‘Q&V’’) questionnaires. See Initiation, 74 FR at 42856. On August 19, 2009, the Department requested Q&V information from 35 companies that the Petitioner identified as potential exporters, or producers, of bricks from the PRC. See Memo to the File, dated September 10, 2009. Additionally, the Department also posted the Q&V questionnaire for this investigation on its Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/iahighlights-and-news.html. The Department received timely Q&V responses from sixteen exporters/ producers that shipped merchandise under investigation to the United States during the POI. On October 6, 2009, the Department selected Dalian Mayerton Refractories Co., Ltd. and Liaoning Mayerton Refractories Co., Ltd. (collectively, ‘‘Mayerton’’) and RHI Refractories Liaoning Co., Ltd. (‘‘RHI’’) as mandatory respondents in this investigation, based on their volume of U.S. entries of bricks during the POI. See Memorandum to James Doyle, Office Director, Office 9, from Paul Walker, Analyst, through Scot T. Fullerton, Program Manager, regarding the ‘‘Investigation of Magnesia Carbon Bricks from the People’s Republic of China: Respondent Selection,’’ dated October 6, 2009 (‘‘Respondent Selection Memo’’). The Department sent its antidumping duty questionnaire to Mayerton and RHI on October 6, 2009. Between October 27, 2009, and February 26, 2010, Mayerton and RHI responded to the Department’s original and supplemental questionnaires. Separate Rate Applications Between October 12, 2009, and October 27, 2009, in addition to those PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 11847 filed by Mayerton and RHI, we received timely filed separate-rate applications (‘‘SRA’’) from twelve companies: Dashiqiao City Guancheng Refractor Co., Ltd.; Fengchi Imp. And Exp. Co., Ltd. Of Haicheng City; Jiangsu Sujia Group New Materials Co. Ltd.; Liaoning Fucheng Refractories Group Co., Ltd.; Liaoning Fucheng Special Refractory Co., Ltd.; Liaoning Jiayi Metals & Minerals Co., Ltd.; Yingkou Bayuquan Refractories Co., Ltd.; Yingkou Dalmond Refractories Co., Ltd.; Yingkou Guangyang Co., Ltd.; Yingkou Kyushu Refractories Co, Ltd.; Yingkou New Century Refractories Ltd.; and Yingkou Wonjin Refractory Material Co., Ltd. (‘‘Separate Rate Respondents’’). One company, RHI Refractories (Dalian) Co., Ltd., submitted a separate rate application, however, a careful review of that application indicates that it did not sell the merchandise under consideration. Therefore, we have not considered the separate rate application of RHI Refractories (Dalian) Co., Ltd. Surrogate Country and Surrogate Value Comments On November 13, 2009, the Department determined that India, the Philippines, Indonesia, Colombia, Thailand, and Peru are countries comparable to the PRC in terms of economic development. See August 19, 2009, Letter to All Interested Parties, regarding ‘‘Antidumping Duty Investigation of Magnesia Carbon Bricks from the People’s Republic of China,’’ attaching October 28, 2009, Memorandum to Scot T. Fullerton, Program Manager, Office 9, AD/CVD Operations, from Kelly Parkhill, Acting Director, Office for Policy, regarding ‘‘Request for List of Surrogate Countries for an Antidumping Duty Investigation of Magnesia Carbon Bricks from the People’s Republic of China’’ (‘‘Surrogate Country List’’). On December 24, 2009, Petitioner and RHI submitted surrogate country comments. No other interested parties commented on the selection of a surrogate country. For a detailed discussion of the selection of the surrogate country, see ‘‘Surrogate Country’’ section below. On December 3, 2009, and December 10, 2009, the Department extended until January 7, 2010, the deadline for interested parties to submit surrogate value information. Rebuttal comments were due no later than January 12, 2010.
