Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 47 / Friday, March 9, 2012 / Notices
date on which the administering
authority initiated the investigation.
The Department has determined that
the parties involved in the proceeding
are cooperating and that the
investigation is extraordinarily
complicated. See section 703(c)(1)(B) of
the Act. Specifically, the Department is
currently investigating alleged subsidy
programs involving loans, grants,
income tax incentives, and the
provision of goods or services for less
than adequate remuneration. Due to the
number and complexity of the alleged
countervailable subsidy practices being
investigated, it is not practicable to
complete the preliminary determination
of this investigation within the original
time limit (i.e., by March 23, 2012).
Therefore, in accordance with section
703(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we are fully
extending the due date for the
preliminary determination to no later
than 130 days after the day on which
the investigation was initiated.
However, as that date falls on a Sunday
(i.e., May 27, 2012) and is followed by
a federal holiday on Monday, May 28,
2012, the deadline for completion of the
preliminary determination is now
Tuesday, May 29, 2012, the next
business day.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act.
Dated: March 2, 2012.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.

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 May 8, 2012.
ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments
to Jennifer Jessup, Departmental
Paperwork Clearance Officer,
Department of Commerce, Room 6616,
14th and Constitution Avenue NW.,
Washington, DC 20230 (or via the
Internet at JJessup@doc.gov).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for an extension of a
currently approved information
collection. On October 10, 2008, NMFS
published a final rule implementing
speed restrictions to reduce the
incidence and severity of ship collisions
with North Atlantic right whales (73 FR
60173). That final rule contained a
collection-of-information requirement
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA). Specifically, 50 CFR 224.105(c)
requires a logbook entry to document
that a deviation from the 10-knot speed
limit was necessary for safe
maneuverability under certain
conditions: because the vessel is in an
area where oceanographic, hydrographic
and/or meteorological conditions
severely restrict the maneuverability of
the vessel and the need to operate at
such speed is confirmed by the pilot on
board or, when a vessel is not carrying
a pilot, the master of the vessel.
II. Method of Collection
This information collection requires
an entry into the ship’s logbook.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0580.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a currently approved
collection).
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
3,047.
Estimated Time per Response: 5
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 254.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0 in recordkeeping/reporting
costs.
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
