Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 2, 2011 / Notices
of § 340.6 describe the form that a
petition for a determination of
nonregulated status must take and the
information that must be included in
the petition.
In a notice published in the Federal
Register on June 27, 2005 (70 FR 36917–
36919, Docket No. 04–085–3), APHIS
advised the public of its determination,
effective June 14, 2005, that the
Monsanto and Forage Genetics
International GE glyphosate-tolerant
alfalfa lines designated as events J101
and J163 were no longer considered
regulated articles under the regulations
governing the introduction of certain GE
organisms. That determination was
subsequently challenged in the United
States District Court for the Northern
District of California by the Center for
Food Safety, other associations, and
several organic alfalfa growers. The
lawsuit alleged that APHIS’ decision to
deregulate the GE alfalfa events J101
and J163 violated the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the
Endangered Species Act, and the Plant
Protection Act.
On February 13, 2007, the court in
that case issued its memorandum and
order in which it determined that
APHIS had violated NEPA by not
preparing an EIS in connection with its
deregulation determination. The court
ruled that the environmental assessment
prepared by APHIS for its deregulation
determination failed to adequately
consider certain environmental impacts
in violation of NEPA. The deregulation
determination was vacated and APHIS
was directed by the court to prepare an
EIS in connection with making a new
determination on the regulated status of
the GE alfalfa.
On December 18, 2009, the
Environmental Protection Agency
published a notice in the Federal
Register (74 FR 67206–67207, Docket
No. ER–FRL–8986–6) announcing the
availability of a draft EIS in connection
with making a determination on the
regulated status of the GE alfalfa.
Comments on the draft EIS were to have
been received on or before February 16,
2010. APHIS subsequently published a
notice 1 in the Federal Register on
February 24, 2010 (75 FR 8299–8300,
Docket No. APHIS–2007–0044),
extending the comment period through
March 3, 2010.
In December 2010, APHIS published
and distributed the final EIS, which
included discussion of the public

comments received on the draft EIS. On
December 23, 2010, the Environmental
Protection Agency published a notice in
the Federal Register (75 FR 80807–
80808, Docket No. ER–FRL–8994–3)
announcing the availability of the final
EIS. The NEPA implementing
regulations in 40 CFR 1506.10 require a
30-day review period between the time
a final EIS is published and the time an
agency makes a decision on an action
covered by the EIS. APHIS received
more than 16,000 comments on the final
EIS by the time this review period
ended on January 24, 2011.
APHIS has reviewed the final EIS and
has concluded that it has fully analyzed
the issues covered by the draft EIS and
those comments and suggestions
submitted by commenters. APHIS has
now prepared a record of decision based
on the final EIS and is making that
record available to the public. The
record of decision and the final EIS on
which the record of decision is based
may be viewed on the Internet at https://
www.regulations.gov/fdmspublic/
component/
main?main=DocketDetail&d=APHIS2007-0044. Copies of those documents
may also be obtained from the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT.
The record of decision has been
prepared in accordance with: (1) NEPA,
(2) regulations of the Council on
Environmental Quality for
implementing the procedural provisions
of NEPA (40 CFR parts 1500–1508), (3)
USDA regulations implementing NEPA
(7 CFR part 1b), and (4) APHIS’ NEPA
Implementing Procedures (7 CFR part
372).

The Cooperative Game Fish Tagging
Program (CGFTP) was initiated in 1954
by Woods Hole Oceanographic
Institution (WHOI). In 1973 the CGFTP
became a cooperative effort between
WHOI and the National Marine
Fisheries (NMFS) as part of a
comprehensive research program
resulting from passage of the Migratory
Game Fish Study Act of 1959 (Pub. L.
86–359) and other legislative acts under
which the NMFS operates. In 1980 sole
control of the CGFTP was handed over
to the NMFS. The CGFTP was later
renamed the Cooperative Tagging Center
(CTC). The CTC attempts to determine
the migratory patterns and other
biological information of billfish, tunas,
and swordfish by having fishermen tag
and release their catch, so that fish can
be subsequently recaptured.
The primary objectives of a tagging
program are to obtain scientific
information on fish growth and
movements necessary to assist in stock
assessment and management. This is
accomplished by the random recapture
of tagged fish by fishermen and the
subsequent voluntary submission of the
appropriate data.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

SUMMARY: In response to a timely
request by one manufacturer/exporter,
Jungbunzlauer Canada Inc. (JBL
Canada), the Department of Commerce
(the Department) is conducting the first
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on citric acid
and certain citrate salts (citric acid) from
Canada with respect to JBL Canada. The
review covers the period November 20,
2008, through May 19, 2009, and May
29, 2009, through April 30, 2010. We
preliminarily determine that JBL Canada
made sales below normal value (NV).
If the preliminary results are adopted
in our final results of the administrative
review, we will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. Interested parties are invited to
comment on the preliminary results.

Background
In response to a timely request by JBL
Canada, on June 30, 2010, the
Department published in the Federal
Register a notice of initiation of an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on citric acid
from Canada with respect to JBL Canada
covering the period November 20, 2008,

Canada. In August 2010, we received
responses to sections A (i.e., the section
covering general information about the
company), B (i.e., the section covering
comparison-market sales), C (i.e., the
