Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 27 / Wednesday, February 9, 2011 / Notices
businesses or to businesses that cannot
otherwise borrow capital. On occasion,
RLFs also make loans to finance public
infrastructure. As the loans are repaid,
the grantee uses a portion of interest
earned to pay administrative expenses
and adds the remaining principal and
interest repayments to the RLF’s capital
base to make new loans. An RLF award
that is well managed is actively used to
make loans to eligible businesses and
entities, continues to revolve funds, and
does not have a termination date.
One of the unique features of the
program is that, by law, EDA must
exercise fiduciary responsibility over its
RLF portfolio in perpetuity—a
significant challenge since many RLF
grants date back to 1979. EDA’s
regulations therefore require EDA RLF
grantees to submit an ED–209, Semiannual Report to EDA, every six months
for each RLF they operate. In addition,
EDA RLF grantees must submit an ED–
209I, RLF Income and Expense
Statement, if either of the following
conditions applies to their RLF: (a) Total
administrative expenses for the 6-month
period exceed $100,000, or (b)
administrative expenses for the 6-month
period exceed 50 percent of RLF income
for the 6-month period. EDA requires
that both of these reports be completed
and submitted via the web-based
Revolving Loan Fund Management
System (RLFMS). This system was
successfully launched on April 1, 2010,
and was designed to eliminate
duplicative data entry fields and prepopulate all calculable fields.
II. Method of Collection
Electronically via the RLFMS.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0610–0095.
Form Number(s): ED–209 and ED–
209I.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a currently approved
information. collection).
Affected Public: Not for-profit
institutions; state or local governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,460.
Estimated Time per Response: ED–
209, 3 hours; and ED–209I, 1 hour.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 3,796.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0.
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for OMB
7149
approval of this information collection;
they also will become a matter of public
record.

Notice of Final Results of Expedited
Sunset Review of the Antidumping
Duty Order: Glycine From the People’s
Republic of China
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On October 1, 2010, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the antidumping duty order on
glycine from the People’s Republic of
China (‘‘PRC’’) pursuant to section 751(c)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation of Five-Year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 75 FR 60731 (October
1, 2010) (‘‘Initiation’’). Based on filings
by domestic interested parties and
pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the
Act and section 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(A) of
the Department’s regulations, the
Department conducted an expedited
sunset review of the antidumping duty
order. As a result of this sunset review,
the Department finds that revocation of
the antidumping duty order would
likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping at the level indicated in the
‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this
notice.
DATES: Effective Date: February 9, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 1, 2010, the Department
initiated a sunset review of the
antidumping duty order on glycine from
the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of
the Act. See Initiation. On October 5,
2010, the Department received a notice
of intent to participate from the
following domestic interested parties:
GEO Specialty Chemicals (‘‘GEO’’) and
Chattem Chemicals, Inc. (‘‘Chattem’’)
(collectively the Glycine Producers of
the United States or ‘‘the domestic
interested parties’’), within the deadline
specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(I). See
Letter from David M. Schwartz, to
Secretary Gary Locke, titled ‘‘Sunset
Review of the Antidumping Order on
Glycine from the People’s Republic of
China—Notification of Intent to
Participate by Domestic Interested
Parties,’’ dated October 5, 2010. In this
letter, the domestic interested parties
claimed interested party status under
section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as U.S.
manufacturers of glycine. On October
29, 2010, the Department received a
complete substantive response from the
domestic interested parties within the
30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). See Letter from David
M. Schwartz, to Secretary Gary Locke,
titled ‘‘Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Order on Glycine from the
People’s Republic of China—
Substantive Response to Notice of
Initiation,’’ dated October 29, 2010. The
Department did not receive any
comments from producers or exporters
of glycine from the PRC.
Based on the submissions of the
domestic interested parties and
pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2),
the Department has conducted the
sunset review on an expedited basis.
Scope of Order
The product covered by the order is
glycine, which is a free-flowing
crystalline material, like salt or sugar.
Glycine is produced at varying levels of
purity and is used as a sweetener/taste
enhancer, a buffering agent,
reabsorbable amino acid, chemical
intermediate, and a metal complexing
agent. This order covers glycine of all
purity levels. Glycine is currently
classified under subheading
2922.49.4020 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). In a separate scope ruling,
the Department determined that D(-)
PO 00000

Sfmt 9990
Phenylglycine Ethyl Dane Salt is outside
the scope of the order. See Notice of
Scope Rulings, 62 FR 62288 (November
21, 1997). Although the HTSUS
subheading is provided for convenience
and Customs purposes, the written
description of the merchandise under
the order is dispositive.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in this review are
addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum (‘‘Decision
Memorandum’’) from Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations, to Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, dated January 31, 2011,
which is hereby adopted by this notice.
The issues discussed in the
accompanying Decision Memorandum
address the likelihood of a continuation
or recurrence of dumping were the order
to be revoked and also the magnitude of
the margin likely to prevail upon
revocation. Parties can find a complete
discussion of the issues raised in this
review and the corresponding
recommendations in this public
memorandum, which is on file in the
Central Records Unit, room 7046 of the
main Commerce building. In addition, a
complete version of the Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly
on the Web at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn.
The paper copy and electronic version
of the Decision Memorandum are
identical in content.
Final Results of Review
The Department determines that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order on glycine from the PRC would be
likely to lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping at the following
weighted-average percentage margin:
Manufacturers/producers/
exporters
PRC-Wide Entity (all manufacturers/producers/exporters) ...
Weightedaverage
margin
155.89%
The Department is issuing and
publishing these results and notice in
accordance with sections 751(c), 752,
and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: January 31, 2010.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.
