Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved information collection. Abstract: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) required television broadcasters to have converted transmitters to broadcast digital signals by June 12, 2009. The FCC deadline did not apply to translators often used by rural stations serving small or isolated areas and some continue to broadcast in analog and have not completed the transition to digital. Public television stations rely on community and business financial support to operate and, in many rural areas the cost of the transition to digital broadcasting exceeds community resources. Since rural communities depend on public television stations for services ranging from educational course content in their schools to local news, weather, and agricultural reports, disruption of public television broadcasting would be detrimental. Full digital transition requires installation of a new antenna, transmitter or translator, and new digital program management facilities consisting of processing and storage systems. Public television stations use a combination of transmitters and translators to serve the rural public and to perform program origination functions, digital cameras, editing and mastering systems are required. A new studio-to-tower site communications link may be required to transport the digital broadcast signal to each transmitter and translator. The capability to broadcast some programming in a high definition television format can require additional studio facilities. In designing the competition for the distribution of grant funds, priority is given to public television stations serving areas most unable to fund digital transition without a grant. The largest sources of funding for public television stations are public membership and VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:09 Feb 20, 2014 Jkt 232001 business contributions and less densely populated rural areas have a lower membership and fewer business per capita than urban and suburban areas. Therefore, rurality is a primary predictor of the need for grant funding for a public television station’s digital transition. Some rural areas have economic needs that are higher than the national average, and public television stations covering these areas may have difficulty funding the digital transition. As a result, the consideration of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) eligibility percentages for all school districts within the station coverage area is a secondary predictor of need for grant funding. Finally, because public television stations may face special difficulty accomplishing the transition, a third scoring factor for station hardship accounts for conditions that make these public television stations less likely to accomplish the digital transition without a grant. The collection of information consists of the materials to file a grant application with the Agency, including forms, certifications and required documentation. Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 23 hours per response. Respondents: Not-for-profit institutions; State, Local or Tribal Government. Estimated Number of Respondents: 30. Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.26. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 714 hours.

SUMMARY: On October 1, 2013, the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated the first five-year (sunset) review of the antidumping duty order on lightweight thermal paper from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:09 Feb 20, 2014 Jkt 232001 Background On October 28, 2013, the Department received a notice of intent to participate from Appvion, Inc. (Appvion),2 a domestic interested party, within the 15-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). On November 18, 2013, we received a complete substantive response from Appvion within the 30day deadline applicable under 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).3 We received no response from any respondent interested party. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the AD Order. Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by the order is lightweight thermal paper. The merchandise subject to the order is DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AGENCY: Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).1 As a result of this sunset review, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty order on lightweight thermal paper from the PRC would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the levels indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this notice.
