Assessment Rates
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212
and the Final Modification,3 the
Department will instruct U.S. Customs

apply to entries of subject merchandise
during the period of review produced by
MCC EuroChem for which it did not

the United States. In such instances, we
will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others rate
if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the
transaction.
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after publication of the
final results of this review.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an
environmental impact statement (EIS)
and notice of public scoping meetings.
AGENCY:
We, the National Marine
Fisheries Service and Fish and Wildlife
Service (Services), in cooperation with
the Army Corps of Engineers, intend to
prepare an EIS under the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
regarding expected applications from
the United Water Conservation District
(United) for incidental take permits
under the Federal Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (ESA). The EIS
will analyze the environmental effects
of the Services’ proposed issuance of
incidental take permits for United’s
construction, operations, and
maintenance of water management
facilities within the lower Santa Clara
River watershed, Ventura County,
California. The Services also provide
this notice to announce a public scoping
period, during which we invite other
agencies, Tribes, and the public to
submit written comments providing
suggestions and information on issues
and alternatives to include in the EIS.
DATES: To ensure consideration of any
written comments, please submit them
by January 13, 2014. Public meetings
will be held on December 12, 2013, from
1 p.m. to 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
ADDRESSES: The public meetings will be
held at Courtyard by Marriott, 600 East
Esplanade Drive, Oxnard, CA 93036. To
request further information or submit
information related to preparation of the
EIS, please use one of the following
methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Services publish this notice under the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.), and its implementing regulations
in the Code of Federal Regulations at 40
CFR 1506.6, and pursuant to section
10(c) of the ESA. We intend to prepare
a draft EIS to evaluate the impacts of
several alternatives related to the
potential issuance of incidental take
permits to United, as well as impacts of
the implementation of the supporting
proposed Multiple Species Habitat
Conservation Plan (HCP). The permits
would authorize the incidental take of
threatened and endangered species that
could occur as a result of United’s
current and future water management
activities. United intends to request a
50-year permit covering five species
federally listed as threatened or
endangered and six species that are not
federally listed but may become listed
during the term of the permit.
For preparation of the EIS under
NEPA, the Services will serve as co-lead
Federal agencies, and the Corps will
serve as a cooperating agency. The
primary purpose of the scoping process
is for the public and other agencies to
assist in developing the EIS by
identifying important issues and
alternatives related to the HCP and the
Services’ proposed action (issuance of
incidental take permits). As a
cooperating agency, the Corps will assist
