Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 211 / Tuesday, November 1, 2011 / Notices
In accordance with section
351.213(b), an interested party as
defined by section 771(9) of the Act may
request in writing that the Secretary
conduct an administrative review. For
both antidumping and countervailing
duty reviews, the interested party must
specify the individual producers or
exporters covered by an antidumping
finding or an antidumping or
countervailing duty order or suspension
agreement for which it is requesting a
review. In addition, a domestic
interested party or an interested party
described in section 771(9)(B) of the Act
must state why it desires the Secretary
to review those particular producers or
exporters.2 If the interested party
intends for the Secretary to review sales
of merchandise by an exporter (or a
producer if that producer also exports
merchandise from other suppliers)
which were produced in more than one
country of origin and each country of
origin is subject to a separate order, then
the interested party must state
specifically, on an order-by-order basis,
which exporter(s) the request is
intended to cover.
Please note that, for any party the
Department was unable to locate in
prior segments, the Department will not
accept a request for an administrative
review of that party absent new
information as to the party’s location.
Moreover, if the interested party who
files a request for review is unable to
locate the producer or exporter for
which it requested the review, the
interested party must provide an
explanation of the attempts it made to
locate the producer or exporter at the
same time it files its request for review,
in order for the Secretary to determine
if the interested party’s attempts were
reasonable, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.303(f)(3)(ii).
As explained in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68
FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department
has clarified its practice with respect to
the collection of final antidumping
duties on imports of merchandise where
intermediate firms are involved. The
public should be aware of this
clarification in determining whether to
request an administrative review of
merchandise subject to antidumping
findings and orders. See also the Import
Administration Web site at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov.
All requests must be filed
electronically in Import
Administration’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (‘‘IA
ACCESS’’) on the IA ACCESS Web site
at https://iaaccess.trade.gov. See
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Proceedings: Electronic Filing
Procedures; Administrative Protective
Order Procedures, 76 FR 39263, (July 6,
2011). Further, in accordance with
section 351.303(f)(l)(i) of the
regulations, a copy of each request must
be served on the petitioner and each
exporter or producer specified in the
request.
The Department will publish in the
Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation
of Administrative Review of
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation’’ for requests received by
the last day of November 2011. If the
Department does not receive, by the last
day of November 2011, a request for
review of entries covered by an order,
finding, or suspended investigation
listed in this notice and for the period
identified above, the Department will
instruct the CBP to assess antidumping
or countervailing duties on those entries
at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or
bond for) estimated antidumping or
countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect
the cash deposit previously ordered.
For the first administrative review of
any order, there will be no assessment
of antidumping or countervailing duties
on entries of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
67415
for consumption during the relevant
provisional-measures ‘‘gap’’ period, of
the order, if such a gap period is
applicable to the period of review.
This notice is not required by statute
but is published as a service to the
international trading community.

Executive-led Business Development
Mission to Kabul, Afghanistan,
September 2011 (Dates Are Withheld)

Administration, Department of
Commerce.
AGENCY:

Notice.
Mission Description
The United States Department of
Commerce’s International Trade
Administration is organizing a business
development trade mission to Kabul,
Afghanistan in September 2011. This
mission will be led by a Senior
Commerce Department official. Targeted
sectors include: construction (including
engineering, architecture, transportation
and logistics, and infrastructure);
mining (including equipment,
technology, and services); agribusiness;
and information and communications
technology. The mission’s goal is to
help U.S. companies explore long-term
business opportunities in Afghanistan
and enhance U.S.—Afghan commercial
relations by providing U.S. participants
with first-hand market information,
access to government decision makers
as well as one-on-one meetings with
business contacts, including potential
agents, distributors, and partners, to
position themselves to enter or expand
their presence in the targeted sectors.
Commercial Setting
The Government of the Islamic
Republic of Afghanistan (GIRoA) is
taking steps to develop its market
economy and increase both domestic
and foreign private investment. GIRoA
continues to develop legal and
administrative regulatory frameworks
that will lead to a market more
conducive to trade, investment and
private sector development. For
example, Afghanistan adopted an
investment law that allows investments
to be 100% foreign-owned.
Additionally, on October 28, 2010,
Afghanistan and Pakistan signed the
Afghanistan Pakistan Transit Trade
Agreement (APTTA), allowing Afghan
container trucks to drive through
Pakistan to the Indian border, and also
to port cities such as Karachi.
After 30 years of war reconstruction
and development efforts are required to
grow and stabilize Afghanistan’s
economy. The GIRoA is committed to
promoting economic development,
increasing production and earnings,
promoting technology transfer,
improving national prosperity and
advancing Afghans’ standard of living in
partnership with international donor
agencies. GIRoA recognizes that U.S.
services, equipment and technology
would enhance development of
Afghanistan’s industrial sector and lead
to increased productivity and greater
technical skills for Afghan citizens.
International donors continue to
support Afghanistan’s development;
PO 00000
Frm 00015
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
however, long-term sustainable growth
will take place through private sector
development.
To support Afghanistan’s private
sector and promote reconstruction
efforts, GIRoA has identified domestic
priority sectors needing investment and
development in both equipment and
services. These priority sectors are:
construction and infrastructure, logistics
and transportation, mining,
agribusiness, and information and
communications technology providers.
The economy is beginning to move
from one based on state owned
enterprises and the informal economy to
a more formal market economy. A
notable sign of this transition for the
U.S. business community is the
establishment of an American Chamber
of Commerce in Kabul in 2010.
Kabul is the capital of Afghanistan,
situated in Kabul Province. With a total
metropolitan population of 2.6 million,
it is also the largest city in Afghanistan.
It is the commercial center for the
country, with national Afghan
businesses, associations, and GIRoA
ministries maintaining a presence in
Kabul. Afghanistan’s GDP per capita is
approximately $500, and has
experienced double digit growth in
recent years.
The Commerce Department has
supported commercial and private
sector development in Afghanistan
since 2002, and posted a Senior
Commercial Officer in Kabul in June
2010.
Mission Goals
The goal of the mission is to provide
U.S. participants with first-hand market
information, access to government
decision makers and one-on-one
meetings with business contacts,
including potential agents, distributors,
and partners, so that they can position
themselves to enter the Afghan market
or expand their business presence in
Afghanistan. Thus, the mission seeks to:
• Improve U.S. companies’
understanding of commercial
opportunities in Afghanistan.
• Facilitate business meetings
between U.S. and Afghan businesses to
promote the development of U.S.
commercial opportunities in
Afghanistan.
• Introduce U.S. industry to the
Afghan business community and
government leaders.
• Provide GIRoA policymakers with
U.S. industry feedback on the direction
of its commercial reforms.
Mission Scenario
The business development mission
will take place in Kabul, Afghanistan.
