Magnets From the People’s Republic of
China: Countervailing Duty Order, 73
FR 53849 (September 17, 2008). On
March 29, 2010, pursuant to section
751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.214(c), the Department received a
timely request for a new shipper review
from Jingzhou Meihou. On April 22,
2010, the Department found that the
request for review with respect to
Jinzhou Meihou met all of the regulatory
requirements set forth in 19 CFR
351.214(b) and initiated a CVD new
shipper review. See Raw Flexible
Magnets from the People’s Republic of
China: Initiation of Countervailing Duty
New Shipper Review, 75 FR 22741
(April 30, 2010).1
On May 5, 2010, we issued a CVD
questionnaire to Jingzhou Meihou and
received the company’s response on
June 21, 2010.2 On June 28, 2010,
Magnum Magnetics Corporation, the
petitioner, submitted to the Department
comments on Jinzhou Meihou’s
questionnaire response.3 In its
submission, petitioner argued that
Jingzhou Meihou is not eligible for a
new shipper review on the basis that
there is a familial affiliation between it
and Dongguan Maghard Flexible Magnet
Co., Ltd. (Dongguan Maghard), a
company that exported subject
merchandise to the United States during
the CVD POI, which was January 1,
2006, through December 31, 2006.
On July 30, 2010, we issued a
memorandum detailing our analysis of
the affiliation issue. See Memorandum
to Edward C. Yang, Acting Deputy
Assistant Secretary, for Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Operations,
from Melissa G. Skinner, Director,
Operations, Office 3, regarding
‘‘Jingzhou Meihou’s Eligibility for a New
Shipper,’’ (July 30, 2010) (Affiliation
Memorandum). We found that Jinzhou
Meihou and Dongguan Maghard are
affiliated companies on the basis of a
familial connection. We also found that
Dongguan Maghard was an exporter of
subject merchandise to the United
States during the CVD POI. We,
therefore, determined that Jingzhou
Meihou is not eligible for a CVD new
shipper review. We provided interested
parties the opportunity to submit
comments on the Affiliation
Memorandum. On August 6, 2010,
Jingzhou Meihou submitted a letter to
the Department expressing disagreement
with the Department’s decision
regarding affiliation.4 Jinzhou Meihou,
however, stated that it would respect
the Department’s decision that the CVD
new shipper review be rescinded.5
Petitioner did not submit any comments
on the Affiliation Memorandum to the
Department. As such, we are rescinding
the CVD new shipper review with
respect to Jinzhou Meihou and are not
calculating a company–specific rate for
the company.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of
their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely
written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and terms of an
APO is a violation which is subject to
sanction.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 777(i) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.214(f)(3).

Administrator) has granted a request for
an affirmative finding to the
Government of Spain under the Marine
Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). This
affirmative finding will allow yellowfin
tuna harvested in the eastern tropical
Pacific Ocean (ETP) in compliance with
the International Dolphin Conservation
Program (IDCP) by Spanish flag purse
seine vessels or purse seine vessels
operating under Spanish jurisdiction to
be imported into the United States. The
affirmative finding was based on review
of documentary evidence submitted by
the Government of Spain and obtained
from the Inter-American Tropical Tuna
Commission (IATTC) and the U.S.
Department of State.
DATES: The affirmative finding is
effective from April 1, 2010, through
March 31, 2015, subject to annual
review by NMFS.

Regional Administrator, Southwest
Region, NMFS, 501 West Ocean
Boulevard, Suite 4200, Long Beach, CA

980–4018.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
MMPA, 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq., allows
the entry into the United States of
yellowfin tuna harvested by purse seine
vessels in the ETP under certain
conditions. If requested by the
harvesting nation, the Assistant
Administrator will determine whether
to make an affirmative finding based
upon documentary evidence provided
by the government of the harvesting
nation, the IATTC, or the Department of
State.
The affirmative finding process
requires that the harvesting nation is
meeting its obligations under the IDCP
and obligations of membership in the
IATTC. Every 5 years, the government of
the harvesting nation must request an
affirmative finding and submit the
required documentary evidence directly
to the Assistant Administrator. On an
annual basis, NMFS will review the
affirmative finding and determine
whether the harvesting nation continues
to meet the requirements. A nation may
provide information related to
compliance with IDCP and IATTC
measures directly to NMFS on an
annual basis or may authorize the
IATTC to release the information to
NMFS to annually renew an affirmative
finding determination without an
application from the harvesting nation.
An affirmative finding will be
terminated, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, if the Assistant
Administrator determines that the
requirements of 50 CFR 216.24(f) are no
longer being met or that a nation is
E:\FR\FM\27AUN1.SGM
27AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 166 / Friday, August 27, 2010 / Notices
consistently failing to take enforcement
actions on violations, thereby
diminishing the effectiveness of the
IDCP.
As a part of the affirmative finding
process set forth in 50 CFR 216.24(f), the
Assistant Administrator considered
documentary evidence submitted by the
Government of Spain and obtained from
the IATTC and the Department of State
and has determined that Spain has met
the MMPA’s requirements to receive an
affirmative finding.
After consultation with the
Department of State, the Assistant
Administrator issued an affirmative
finding to Spain, allowing the continued
importation into the United States of
yellowfin tuna and products derived
from yellowfin tuna harvested in the
ETP by Spanish-flag purse seine vessels
or purse seine vessels operating under
Spanish jurisdiction. Spain’s affirmative
finding will remain valid through March
31, 2015, subject to subsequent annual
reviews by NMFS.
