EMCDONALD on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 233 / Wednesday, December 4, 2013 / Notices
toward advanced ability level skiers as
compared to the majority of ski resorts
in the Central Rocky Mountain region,
who primarily accommodate
intermediate skiers. As visitation
increases in the future, A-Basin needs to
ensure that its reputation for advanced
terrain with low trail densities is not
only maintained, but improved. It is
therefore reasonable to look to
opportunities within the existing SUP
area for opportunities to meet the needs
of A-Basin’s market.
Finally, guest expectations continue
to evolve and ski areas must constantly
focus on raising service standards and
improving the overall recreational
experience. By upgrading,
supplementing and removing outdated
infrastructure within the ski area,
improving snowmaking efficiencies and
providing activities to enhance the fourseason recreation experience on NFS
lands, A-Basin can continue to raise
service standards while maintaining the
unique A-Basin experience.
Proposed Action: The Proposed
Action includes the following five
elements, identified below. A full
description of each element can be
found at: https://www.fs.usda.gov/
projects/whiteriver/landmanagement/
projects.
• Incorporate The Beavers and the
Steep Gullies into A-Basin’s Operational
Boundary, and providing lift access,
developed ski trails and tree skiing in
that area. The proposed terrain would
be patrolled and avalanche control/
snow safety work would be conducted
throughout the area. To minimize or
mitigate potential effects to wildlife
from incorporating this terrain into the
operational boundary, conservation
measures would be considered. The
conservation measures would be further
defined in conjunction with the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service and
other partners.
• Install a surface lift from the
Lenawee Mountain and Norway lifts to
Montezuma Bowl to improve access
from the front side to Montezuma Bowl.
• Replace the Pallavicini and Molly
Hogan Lifts with more current lift
technology in similar alignments and
with lifts that provide similar hourly
capacities.
• Expand the existing snowmaking
water storage reservoir from 5.5 acre feet
to approximately 35 acre feet.
• Provide a Zip Line Tour and
Challenge/Ropes Course at the ski area,
accessible from existing ski area
infrastructure.
These projects are designed to provide
lift served access to additional advanced
terrain within the existing SUP
boundary, while maintaining the

Jkt 232001
integrity of the unique characteristics
for which A-Basin is known. The
proposed projects are consistent with
the A-Basin’s 2012 Master Development
Plan.
Based on the Proposed Action there
may be a need to do a site-specific
Forest Plan Amendment to address
Southern Rockies Lynx Amendment
Standard All S1.
Responsible Official: The Responsible
Official is Scott Fitzwilliams, Forest
Supervisor for the WRNF.
Nature of Decision To Be Made: Based
on the analysis that will be documented
in the forthcoming EIS, the Responsible
Official will decide whether or not to
implement, in whole or in part, the
Proposed Action or another alternative
that may be developed by the Forest
Service as a result of scoping.
Scoping Process: This notice of intent
initiates the scoping process, which
guides the development of the
environmental impact statement. The
Forest Service is soliciting comments
from Federal, State and local agencies
and other individuals or organizations
that may be interested in or affected by
implementation of the proposed
projects. A public open house regarding
this proposal will be held at the
Silverthorne Library located at 651
Center Circle, Silverthorne, Colorado,
on December 3, 2013 between 4:30 and
6:30 p.m. Representatives from the
WRNF and A-Basin will be present to
answer questions and provide
additional information on this project.
Public questions and comments
regarding this proposal are an integral
part of this environmental analysis
process. Input provided by interested
and/or affected individuals,
organizations and governmental
agencies will be used to identify
resource issues that will be analyzed in
the environmental impact statement.
The Forest Service will identify
significant issues raised during the
scoping process, and use them to
formulate alternatives, prescribe
mitigation measures and project design
features, or analyze environmental
effects.
It is important that reviewers provide
their comments at such times and in
such manner that they are useful to the
agency’s preparation of the
environmental impact statement.
Therefore, comments should be
provided prior to the close of the
comment period and should clearly
articulate the reviewer’s concerns and
contentions.
Comments received in response to
this solicitation, including names and
addresses of those who comment, will
be part of the public record for this

the CAFC has held that, pursuant to
section 516A(e) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), the
Department must publish a notice of a
court decision that is not ‘‘in harmony’’
with a Department determination and
must suspend liquidation of entries
pending a ‘‘conclusive’’ court decision.
The CIT’s November 14, 2013, judgment
sustaining the Department’s remand
redetermination valuation of certain
wood inputs, poly foam, and the
calculation of the surrogate financial
ratios, constitutes a final decision of that
court that is not in harmony with the
Department’s Final Results. This notice
is published in fulfillment of the
publication requirements of Timken.
Accordingly, the Department will
continue the suspension of liquidation
of the subject merchandise pending the
expiration of the period of appeal, or if
appealed, pending a final and
conclusive court decision.
Amended Final Results
Because there is now a final court
decision with respect to this case, the
Department is amending its Final
Results with respect to Huafeng’s
weighted-average dumping margin for
the period January 1, 2009 through
December 31, 2009. In addition, the
Department has amended the Final
Results for Nanhai and Baiyi, the
separate rate respondents included in
this final court decision. The remaining
weighted-average dumping margins
from the Final Results, as subsequently
amended, remain unchanged.
