VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:23 Jul 10, 2013 Jkt 229001 Preliminary Findings As detailed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, the Department has preliminarily determined, using partial adverse facts available, that innerspring units completed and assembled in Malaysia by Reztec using components from the PRC and exported from Malaysia to the United States are circumventing the Order. Moreover, because Reztec cannot distinguish between those innerspring units it is exporting to the United States which contain PRC-origin components and those that do not, the Department has preliminarily determined that it is appropriate to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) to suspend liquidation of all entries of innerspring units from Malaysia produced by Reztec as subject to the Order.4 Suspension of Liquidation In accordance with 19 CFR 351.225(l)(2), the Department will direct CBP to suspend liquidation and to require a cash deposit of estimated duties at the rate applicable to the exporter, on all unliquidated entries of innerspring units produced by Reztec that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after May 23, 2012, the date of initiation of the anticircumvention inquiry.5 Should the Department conduct an administrative review in the future, and determine in the context of that review that Reztec did not produce for export innerspring units using PRC-origin innerspring components, the Department will consider initiating a changed circumstances review pursuant to section 751(b) of the Act to determine if the continued suspension of all innerspring units produced by Reztec is warranted.6 Notification to the International Trade Commission The Department, consistent with section 781(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.225(f)(7)(i)(B), has notified the International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) of this preliminary determination to include the merchandise subject to this anticircumvention inquiry within the Order.

Type of Review: A new information collection. Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal Governments. Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 12,231. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 6,573. Abstract: The Implementation of Title I/II Program Initiatives study will examine the implementation of policies promoted through the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) at the state, district and school levels, in four core areas: state content standards, aligned assessments, accountability and school turnaround, and development of effective teachers and leaders. The purpose of this new data collection is to provide policy makers with detailed information on the progress being made on the core policies promoted by Title I and Title II, and the recent granting of ESEA Flexibility to states. Although other research studies cover similar topics on recent federal education policy, the breadth of research questions and the depth of responses from all SEAs and three levels of nationally representative samples, sets the Title I/II study apart from other studies. This study will rely on information collected from existing sources, for which there are no respondents or burden and on a new set of surveys in order to address the study’s research questions. Extant data sources include (a) The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP); (b) EDFacts data; (c) information about teacher preparation and certification programs and policies; and (d) state documents. The new surveys of states and districts will begin in November 2013 and the surveys of schools (principals) and teachers will begin in January 2014. All respondents will have the opportunity to complete an electronic (email or web-based) survey (or paper survey, if preferred). Dated: July 3, 2013.
