Final Results of Changed Circumstance

Orders
[A–428–820]
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Based on the Department’s analysis in
the Preliminary Results (which we
incorporate herein by reference) and in
light of the fact that no interested parties
submitted any comments on the
Department’s Preliminary Results other
than to express support for the partial
revocation, the Department hereby
determines to revoke, in part, the Orders
with respect to the certain rectangular
wire that is the subject of 3M’s request,
pursuant to sections 751(d)(1) and
782(h)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’) and 19 CFR
351.222(g).6 In addition, the Department
has modified the scope of the AD and
CVD orders, as reflected above,
consistent with these final results.
We will instruct U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate
without regard to ADs and CVDs, and to
refund any estimated ADs and CVDs
collected, on all unliquidated entries of
the product in question that are not
covered by the final results of an
administrative review or automatic
liquidation. Specifically, because there
has been no completed administrative
review of the Orders, we will instruct
CBP to terminate suspension of
liquidation of all unliquidated entries of
aluminum extrusions meeting the
specifications of the product in
question, entered or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption, on or after
November 12, 2010 (for ADs) and
September 7, 2010 (for CVDs) and
liquidate such entries without regard to
ADs and CVDs. Furthermore, the
Department will instruct CBP to refund
estimated ADs and CVDs collected on
such entries, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.222(g)(4).
This notice is published in
accordance with section 751(b)(1) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.221 and 19 CFR
351.222.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 1, 2013, the Department of
Commerce (the Department) published
in the Federal Register a notice of
‘‘Opportunity to Request Administrative
Review’’ of the antidumping duty order
on certain small diameter carbon and
alloy seamless standard, line, and
pressure pipe (seamless pressure pipe)
from Germany for the period of review
(POR) of August 1, 2012, through July
31, 2013.1 The Department received a
timely request from United States Steel
Corporation (petitioner), filed in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b), for
an administrative review of sales,
shipments, or entries by certain
companies subject to the antidumping
duty order on seamless pressure pipe
from Germany. On October 2, 2013, the
Department published a notice of
initiation of an administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on seamless
pressure pipe from Germany with
respect to four companies: (1) Benteler
Stahl/Rohr GmbH (also known as
Benteler Steel/Tube GmbH); (2) ESW
Roehrenwerke GmbH; (3) Vallourec &
Mannesmann Tubes—V & M
Deutschland GmbH; and (4) Voestalpine
AG and all affiliates (including, but not
limited to, Voestalpine Tubulars GmbH
& Co. KG and Voestalpine Rotec GmbH
& Co. KG).2

The Department stated in its initiation
of this review that it intended to rely on
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) data to select respondents.3 We
released the results of our CBP data
query to the petitioners and one other
interested party, Voestalpine AG, and
invited them to comment on the CBP
data.4 We received no comments on the
CBP data. We did, however, receive a
certification of no shipments from
Voestalpine AG.5
Rescission of Review
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1) stipulates that
the Secretary will rescind an
administrative review under this
section, in whole or in part, if a party
that requested a review withdraws the
request within 90 days of the date of
publication of notice of initiation of the
requested review. As the only party that
requested a review (the petitioners)
withdrew the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the notice of
initiation of the requested review, we
are rescinding this review of the
antidumping duty order on seamless
pressure pipe from Germany pursuant to
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).6
Assessment of Antidumping Duties
We intend to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of this notice of
rescission of administrative review.
Antidumping duties shall be assessed at
rates equal to the cash deposit of
estimated antidumping duties required
at the time of entry, or withdrawal from
warehouse, for consumption, in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(1)(i).
Notifications
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in the presumption that

brevirostrum) associated with the
otherwise lawful environmental
education program conducted on the
Hudson River, New York. The education
program uses small otter trawls and
beach seines to collect fish and
invertebrate specimens that are held
onboard the vessels for educational
purposes. The duration of the proposed
permit is 10 years. NMFS is providing

agencies and the public an opportunity

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 9
of the ESA and Federal regulations
prohibit the ‘taking’ of a species listed
as endangered or threatened. The ESA
defines ‘‘take’’ to mean harass, harm,
pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap,
capture, or collect, or to attempt to
engage in any such conduct. NMFS may

issue permits, under limited
circumstances to take listed species
incidental to, and not the purpose of,
otherwise lawful activities. Section
10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA provides for
authorizing incidental take of listed
species. NMFS governing permits for
threatened and endangered species are
promulgated at 50 CFR 222.307.
Background
NMFS received a draft permit
application from Clearwater on April
16, 2013. Based on our review of the
draft application, we requested further
information and clarification. On
December 18, 2013, Clearwater
submitted an updated draft application.
Based on review of the updated draft,
NMFS requested clarification on lethal
take and alternatives considered. On
December 23, 2013, Clearwater
submitted a redraft, and based on
review of the draft, NMFS determined
that the application contained sufficient
information for review and
consideration under section 10(a)(1)(B)
of the ESA.
Clearwater is requesting incidental
take of two sturgeon (either or
combination of Atlantic and shortnose
sturgeon) each year from 2014 through
2023 that may be caught in trawl or
seine gear used to collect fish and
invertebrate specimens from the Hudson
River, New York. The take of ESA-listed
Atlantic sturgeon is largely anticipated
to be the New York Bight Distinct
Population Segment (98 percent), but
individuals may also originate from the
Gulf of Maine, Chesapeake, Carolina,
and South Atlantic Distinct Population
Segments. Of the total 20 individual
sturgeon anticipated to be taken for the
duration of the permit, Clearwater does
not anticipate lethal takes, but has
applied for 2 lethal takes for the
duration of the permit in the event that
encounter conditions that lead to a
mortality.
Conservation Plan
Clearwater’s conservation plan
describes measures to minimize,
monitor, and mitigate the incidental
take of ESA-listed Atlantic and
shortnose sturgeon. Clearwater will
regularly communicate New York State
Department of Environmental
Conservation to avoid known sturgeon
habitat and spawning grounds.
Clearwater will use small otter trawls
(95.52 by 45.72 cm doors and weigh less
than 0.45 kg) and short tow times (= ≤ 5
minutes). Beach seines, which allow for
targeted catch, will be used where
practicable (e.g, away from urban areas
and where tides allow). If Clearwater
incidentally captures a sturgeon in their
