Republic of China: Continuation of
Antidumping Duty Orders

Department of Commerce.
DATES: Effective Date: December 5, 2011.
SUMMARY: As a result of the
determinations by the Department of
Commerce (‘‘Department’’) and the
International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’)
that revocation of the antidumping duty
orders on certain helical spring lock
washers from Taiwan and the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) would be
likely to lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and material
injury to an industry in the United
States, the Department is publishing a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 1,
2011, the Department published in the
Federal Register the notice of initiation
of the third sunset reviews of the
antidumping duty orders on certain
helical spring lock washers from Taiwan
and the PRC, pursuant to section
751(c)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation of
Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 76 FR
31588 (June 1, 2011).
As a result of its review, the
Department determined that revocation
of the antidumping duty orders on
certain helical spring lock washers from
Taiwan and the PRC would be likely to
lead to a continuation or recurrence of
dumping and, therefore, notified the ITC
of the magnitude of the margins likely
to prevail should the order be revoked.

Expedited Third Five-Year Sunset

On November 3, 2011, the ITC

Scope of the Orders
Continuation of the Order
As a result of these determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of the antidumping duty
orders would be likely to lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department
hereby orders the continuation of the
antidumping orders on certain helical
spring lock washers from Taiwan and
the PRC. CBP will continue to collect
antidumping duty cash deposits at the
rates in effect at the time of entry for all
imports of subject merchandise. The
effective date of the continuation of
these orders will be the date of
publication in the Federal Register of
this notice of continuation. Pursuant to
section 751(c)(2) of the Act, the
Department intends to initiate the next
five-year review of the orders not later
than 30 days prior to the fifth
anniversary of the effective date of
continuation.
1 On September 30, 1997, the Department
determined that lock washers which are imported
into the United States in an uncut, coil form are
within the scope of the orders. See Notice of Scope
Rulings, 62 FR 62288 (November 21, 1997).

The products covered by the orders
are lock washers of carbon steel, of
carbon alloy steel, or of stainless steel,
heat-treated or non-heat-treated, plated
or non-plated, with ends that are offline. Lock washers are designed to: (1)
Function as a spring to compensate for
developed looseness between the
component parts of a fastened assembly;
(2) distribute the load over a larger area
for screws or bolts; and (3) provide a
hardened bearing surface. The scope
does not include internal or external
tooth washers, nor does it include
spring lock washers made of other
metals, such as copper.
Lock washers subject to the orders are
currently classifiable under subheadings
7318.21.0000 and 7318.21.0030 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the
HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of this
proceeding is dispositive.1

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Department of
Commerce, as part of its continuing
effort to reduce paperwork and
respondent burden, invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to
take this opportunity to comment on
proposed and/or continuing information
collections, as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted on or before February 3, 2012.
ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments
to Diana Hynek, Departmental
Paperwork Clearance Officer,
Department of Commerce, Room 6616,
14th and Constitution Avenue NW,

Internet at dHynek@doc.gov).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
This request is for a revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
This information collection is needed
in order to meet the monitoring
requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens
Act (MSA). In particular, the Northwest
Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC)
needs economic data on all harvesters,
first receivers, shorebased processors,
catcher processors, and motherships
participating in the West Coast
groundfish trawl fishery.
The currently approved collection
covers collection of data for the 2009,

75874
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 233 / Monday, December 5, 2011 / Notices
2010, and 2011 operating years. Data
from the 2009 and 2010 operating years
provides information on the economic
condition of the fishery prior to the
implementation of catch share
management in January 2011, and has
been collected by the NWFSC. Data for
the 2011 operating year, which will
provide information on the first year of
operation under the catch share regime,
will be collected from all catcher vessels
registered to a limited entry trawl
endorsed permit, catcher processors
registered to catcher processor permits,
and motherships registered to
mothership permits, first receivers, and
shorebased processors that received
round or head-and-gutted individual
fishing quota (IFQ) groundfish or
whiting from a first receiver.
Based on review of the completed
economic data collection (EDC) forms
submitted for the 2009 and 2010
operating years as well as discussions
with survey respondents, the NWFSC
seeks to modify the four forms which
are used in this information collection.
These modifications clarify instructions,
make the requests for information more
consistent with the accounting/
bookkeeping systems used by survey
recipients, and continue to facilitate
meeting MSA requirements for
evaluation of the economic effect of
catch share management on the West
Coast groundfish limited entry trawl
fishery.
As stated in 50 CFR 660.114, the EDC
forms due on September 1, 2012 will
provide data for the 2011 operating year.
The definition of the survey
population is different for 2011 data, to
account for differences between the
requirements for the baseline collection
and ongoing collections as defined in
the regulations. To capture vessel
improvements and repairs to vessels
that did not harvest any groundfish or
were operated by lessees, in the 2011
data collection, as well as to collect
more complete information about
shoreside operations that do not process
fish, completion of each form in its
entirety will be required for all owners
of vessels registered to a limited entry
trawl endorsed permit, a mothership
permit, or a catcher processor permit,
owners of a first receiver site license,
and owners or lessees of a shorebased
processor that received round or
headed-and-gutted IFQ species
groundfish or whiting from a first
receiver. This is in contrast to the 2009
and 2010 data collection which allowed
entities that did not harvest or process
any groundfish to complete only the
first four pages of the forms.
Other minor modifications to the
catcher vessel forms include asking for
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:52 Dec 02, 2011
Jkt 226001
information about lease dates of the
vessel, and the addition of several
expense categories based on feedback
from the 2009 and 2010 data collections.
The first receiver and shorebased
processor form was modified to better
align with accounting practices and to
clarify the information required for
reporting fish purchases. There were no
other changes to the mothership or
catcher processors forms.
II. Method of Collection
Forms may be submitted via mail or
electronically.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0618.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(revision of a currently approved

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

they also will become a matter of public
record.
