SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES On December 23, 2009, the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) published a notice of initiation of administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular welded non–alloy steel pipe from the Republic of Korea, covering the period November 1, 2008 through October 31, 2009. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 74 FR 68229 (December 23, 2009). The current deadline for the preliminary results of this administrative review is August 9, 2010.1 1 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, all deadlines in this segment of the proceeding have been extended by seven days. The revised deadline for the preliminary results of this review is now August 9, 2010. See Memorandum to the Record from Ronald VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:44 Jul 12, 2010 Jkt 220001 Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), requires the Department to issue the preliminary results of an administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which a review is requested and the final results of review within 120 days after the date on which the preliminary results are published. If it is not practicable to complete the review within the time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend these deadlines to a maximum of 365 days and 180 days, respectively. The Department requires additional time to review and sales and cost information submitted by the respondents in this administrative review because this review involves complex sales and cost accounting issues. Thus, it is not practicable to complete this review within the originally anticipated time limit (i.e., by August 9, 2010). Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for completion of the preliminary results by 120 days to not later than December 7, 2010, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2). We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: July 7, 2010. Edward C.

SUMMARY: NMFS announces the receipt of an application for an exempted fishing permit (EFP) from Mr. Don DeMaria. If granted, the EFP would authorize Mr. DeMaria to collect and retain, with certain conditions, limited numbers of gorgonian corals from Federal waters, off the coast of North Carolina. The specimens would be used to support research efforts towards a grant awarded to the National Cancer Institute to screen marine invertebrates for possible anti-cancer compounds. DATES: Comments must be received no later than 5 p.m., eastern time, on July 28, 2010. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments on the application by any of the following methods: • E-mail: Nikhil.Mehta@noaa.gov. Include the following document identifier in the subject line of the email comment: ‘‘DonDeMarialEFP’’. • Mail: Nikhil Mehta, Southeast Regional Office, NMFS, 263 13th Avenue South, St. Petersburg, FL 33701. • Fax: 727–824–5308.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nikhil Mehta, 727–824–5305; fax: 727– 824–5308; e-mail: Nikhil.Mehta@noaa.gov. The EFP is requested under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C 1801 et seq.), and regulations at 50 CFR 600.745(b) concerning exempted fishing. This action involves activities covered by regulations implementing the Fishery Management Plan for Coral, Coral Reefs, and Live/Hardbottom Habitat of the South Atlantic Region. The applicant has requested authorization to collect a maximum of 11 lb (5 kg) of gorgonian corals belonging to the Genus Thesea. Specimens would be collected in Federal waters off the coast of North Carolina. The project proposes to use SCUBA gear to make the collections. Samples would be collected over a period of 2 months, commencing on the date of issuance of the EFP. The overall intent of the project is to support research efforts to screen marine invertebrates for possible anticancer compounds. The research is part of a contract (No. HHSN261200900012C) between the National Cancer Institute (https:// SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\13JYN1.SGM 13JYN1 39918 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 133 / Tuesday, July 13, 2010 / Notices www.cancer.gov/), and the Coral Reef Research Foundation (CRRF, https:// www.coralreefresearchfoundation.org/). Samples would be collected by Mr. DeMaria, who is a sub-contractor for CRRF. NMFS finds this application warrants further consideration. Based on a preliminary review, NMFS intends to issue the requested EFP, pending receipt of public comments, as per 50 CFR 600.745(b)(3)(i). Possible conditions the agency may impose on this permit, if it is indeed granted, include but are not limited to, a prohibition on conducting research within marine protected areas, marine sanctuaries, special management zones, or artificial reefs without additional authorization. A report on the project findings would be due at the end of the collection period, to be submitted to NMFS and reviewed by the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council. A final decision on issuance of the EFP will depend on NMFS’ review of public comments received on the application, consultations with the affected state, the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council, and the U.S. Coast Guard, as well as a determination that it is consistent with all applicable laws.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with NOAA Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commissions have implemented the Southeast Data, Assessment and Review (SEDAR) process, a multi-step method for determining the status of fish stocks in the Southeast Region. SEDAR includes three workshops: (1) Data Workshop, (2) Stock Assessment Workshop and (3) Review Workshop. The product of the Data Workshop is a data report which compiles and evaluates potential datasets and recommends which datasets are appropriate for assessment analyses. The product of the Stock Assessment Workshop is a stock assessment report which describes the fisheries, evaluates the status of the stock, estimates biological benchmarks, projects future population conditions, and recommends research and monitoring needs. The assessment is independently peer reviewed at the Review Workshop. The product of the Review Workshop is a Consensus Summary documenting Panel opinions regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the stock assessment and input data. Participants for SEDAR Workshops are appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils and NOAA Fisheries Southeast Regional Office and Southeast Fisheries Science Center. Participants include data collectors and database managers; stock assessment scientists, biologists, and researchers; constituency representatives including fishermen, environmentalists, and NGO’s; International experts; and staff of Councils, Commissions, and state and federal agencies. population models to evaluate stock status, estimate population benchmarks and reauthorized Magnuson-Stevens Act criteria, and project future conditions. Participants will recommend the most appropriate methods and configurations for determining stock status and estimating population parameters. Participants will prepare a workshop report, compare and contrast various assessment approaches, and determine whether the assessments are adequate for submission to the review panel. Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come before these groups for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during these meetings. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically listed in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under section 305(c) of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the Council’s intent to take final action to address the emergency.
