SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Performance Reporting System,
Management Evaluation.
OMB Number: 0584–0010.
Expiration Date: 4/30/2013.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: The purpose of the
Performance Reporting System (PRS) is
to ensure that each State agency and
project area is operating the
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP) in accordance with the
requirements of the Food and Nutrition
Act of 2008 (the Act) (7 U.S.C. 2011, et
seq.), as amended and corresponding
program regulations. Under Section 11
of the Act (7 U.S.C. 2020), State agencies
must maintain necessary records to
ascertain that SNAP is operating in
compliance with the Act and
regulations and must make these
records available to the Food and
Nutrition Service (FNS) for inspection
and audit.
Management Evaluation (ME) Review
Schedules—Unless the State receives
approval for an alternative Management
Evaluation review schedule, each State
agency is required, under 7 CFR part
275, to submit one review schedule
every one, two or three years, depending
on the project area make-up of the State.
Data Analysis—Under 7 CFR part 275,
each State must establish a system for
analysis and evaluation of all data
available to the State. Data analysis and
evaluation is an ongoing process that
facilitates the development of effective
and prompt corrective action.
Corrective Action Plans—Under 7
CFR part 275, State agencies must
prepare a corrective action plan (CAP)
addressing identified deficiencies. The
State agencies must develop a system
for monitoring and evaluating corrective

action and submit CAP updates, as
necessary.
Affected Public: SNAP State and local
agencies.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 53
State agencies.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: (1) State agencies will
submit one review schedule and one ME
review plan per year, and will conduct
and document ME reviews for an
average total of 28.98 responses each.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
1,536 (53 review schedules + 53 review
plan development + 1,430 project areas)
Estimated Time per Response: FNS
estimates that it takes 4 hours to prepare
a review schedule, and that each of the
53 State agencies will submit one
review schedule per year resulting in a
total burden of 212 hours. FNS
estimates that it takes on average
approximately 80 hours to develop a
comprehensive State review plan,
resulting in a total of 4,240 hours.
FNS estimates that it takes an average
of 340 hours to conduct a review. It is
estimated that ME reviews are
conducted for one-half of the total
number of project areas (1,430).
Therefore, FNS estimates that it takes
approximately 486,200 hours annually
for State agencies to conduct their
reviews.
FNS also estimates that the time
necessary for record keeping, that is, the
time necessary to find and file a record
in the conduct of an ME review is .1169
hours per State agency. Therefore, the
total amount of time for recordkeeping
is 180 hours.

preliminary results of, and intent to
rescind in part, the 2010–2011
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on tapered
roller bearings (‘‘TRBs’’) from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’).1
Further, the Department released the
results of its post-preliminary analysis
on December 7, 2012.2 The period of
review (‘‘POR’’) is June 1, 2010, through
May 31, 2011.
This review covers five respondents:

We invited interested parties to
comment on our Preliminary Results
and post-preliminary analysis. Based on
our analysis of the comments received,
we made certain changes to our margin

Background
On July 10, 2012, the Department
published its Preliminary Results in the
antidumping duty administrative review
of TRBs from the PRC. The Timken
Company (‘‘Petitioner’’) submitted postpreliminary surrogate value data on July
30, 2012. Petitioner and CPZ/SKF each

and rebuttal briefs on August 14, 2012.
On October 17, 2012, the Department
extended the deadline for the final
results by 60 days, until January 6, 2013.
On October 31, 2012, as explained in
the memorandum from the Assistant
Secretary for Import Administration, the
Department exercised its discretion to
toll deadlines for the duration of the
closure of the Federal Government from
October 29, through October 30, 2012,
which extended the deadline for the
final results by two additional days,
until January 8, 2013.3 On December 7,
2012, the Department released its postpreliminary analysis, and Petitioner and
CPZ/SKF submitted post-preliminary
comments on December 14, 2012, and
post-preliminary rebuttal comments on
December 18, 2012.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs as well as the postpreliminary comments and rebuttal
comments filed by parties in this review
are addressed in the Memorandum from
Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant
Secretary for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Operations, to Paul

Period of Review
The POR is June 1, 2010, through May
31, 2011.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by the order are
shipments of tapered roller bearings and
parts thereof, finished and unfinished,
from the PRC; flange, take up cartridge,
and hanger units incorporating tapered
roller bearings; and tapered roller
housings (except pillow blocks)
incorporating tapered rollers, with or
without spindles, whether or not for
automotive use. These products are
currently classifiable under Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’) item numbers 8482.20.00,
8482.91.00.50, 8482.99.15, 8482.99.45,

8708.99.80.15 4 and 8708.99.80.80.5
Although the HTSUS item numbers are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
scope of the order is dispositive.
PRC-Wide Entity
The Department initiated a review of
Haining Automann and Zhejiang
Zhaofeng but neither company provided
a separate rate application. Because
these companies do not already have
separate rates, they remain part of the
PRC-wide entity in this review.
Accordingly, the PRC-wide entity is
under review for these final results.
In NME proceedings, ‘rates’ may
consist of a single dumping margin

Abstract: The purpose of the Performance Reporting System (PRS) is

submit one review schedule every one, two or three years, depending on
the project area make-up of the State.

Affected Public: SNAP State and local agencies.

Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: (1) State agencies
will submit one review schedule and one ME review plan per year, and
will conduct and document ME reviews for an average total of 28.98
responses each.
Estimated Total Annual Responses: 1,536 (53 review schedules + 53

Estimated Time per Response: FNS estimates that it takes 4 hours to

is, the time necessary to find and file a record in the conduct of an
