as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR

Department issued a letter to Wah Yuen
requesting that it correct certain
deficiencies in its initial request.2 On

shipper review of the antidumping duty

statutory and regulatory requirements
for initiation. Thus, we are initiating a
new shipper review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The antidumping duty order on cased
pencils from the PRC published in the
Federal Register on December 28,
1994.4 Pursuant to section
751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Act, we received a
timely request for a new shipper review
of the Order from Wah Yuen.5 Wah
Yuen certified that it is both the
producer and exporter of the subject
merchandise upon which its request
was based.6
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i),
Wah Yuen certified that it did not
export subject merchandise to the
United States during the period of
investigation (POI).7 In addition,
pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A),
Wah Yuen certified that, since the
initiation of the investigation, it has

never been affiliated with any exporter
or producer who exported subject
merchandise to the United States during
the POI, including those respondents
not individually examined during the
POI.8 As required by 19 CFR
351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), Wah Yuen also
certified that its export activities are not
controlled by the government of the
PRC.9
In addition to the certifications
described above, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.214(b)(2), Wah Yuen submitted
documentation establishing the
following: (1) The date on which it first
shipped subject merchandise for export
to the United States; (2) the volume of
its first shipment; and (3) the date of its
first sale to an unaffiliated customer in
the United States.10
Period of Review
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.214(g)(1)(B), the period of review
(POR) for new shipper reviews initiated
in the month immediately following the
semiannual anniversary month will be
the six-month period immediately
preceding the semiannual anniversary
month. Therefore, based on the Order,
the POR for this NSR is December 1,
2014, through May 31, 2015.
Initiation of New Shipper Reviews
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), the
Department finds that the request from
Wah Yuen meets threshold
requirements for the initiation of a new
shipper review of shipments of cased
pencils from the PRC produced and
exported by Wah Yuen.11
The Department intends to issue the
preliminary results of this new shipper
review no later than 180 days from the
date of initiation and the final results of
the review no later than 90 days after
the date the preliminary results are
issued.12 It is the Department’s usual
practice, in cases involving non-market
economy countries, to require that a
company seeking to establish eligibility
for an antidumping duty rate separate
from the country-wide rate provide
evidence of de jure and de facto absence
of government control over the

company’s export activities.13
Accordingly, we will issue a
questionnaire to Wah Yuen that will
include a section requesting information
concerning its eligibility for a separate
rate. The new shipper review of Wah
Yuen will be rescinded if the
Department determines that the new
shipper applicant has not demonstrated
that it is eligible for a separate rate.
We will instruct CBP to allow, at the
option of the importer, the posting, until
the completion of the review, of a bond
or security in lieu of a cash deposit for
the entry of the subject merchandise
from Wah Yuen, in accordance with
section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and
19 CFR 351.214(e). Specifically, the
bonding privilege will apply only to
entries of subject merchandise exported
and produced by Wah Yuen, the sales
of which are the basis for this NSR
request.
Interested parties requiring access to
proprietary information in the new
shipper review should submit
applications for disclosure under
administrative protective order, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and
351.306.
This initiation and notice are
published in accordance with section
751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.214 and 351.221(c)(1)(i).

The
subject permit is requested under the
authority of the Marine Mammal
Protection Act of 1972, as amended
(MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the
regulations governing the taking and
importing of marine mammals (50 CFR
part 216).
The applicant requests a permit to
take multiple cetacean species during
research activities focused on cetacean
behavior, sound production and
responses to sound in U.S. waters of the
North Atlantic and North Pacific Ocean
and international waters near the
Mediterranean Sea and the Bahamas.
See tables in the permit application for
annual numbers of takes by species,
stock and activity. Researchers would
take animals by harassment during close
approaches with vessels for behavioral
observations and photo-identification;
attachment of suction-cup or
implantable tags and marking with zinc
oxide; biopsy sampling; and playbacks
of natural and simulated sound.
Playback takes involve conducting
sound playback experiments where
subjects whose responses are being
measured will be exposed to specific
sounds in a carefully controlled manner
using a source level <197.4 dB re 1
microPa at 1 m. Incidental harassment
of other species in the area may occur
during playbacks and vessel surveys.
Skin samples would be imported from
foreign field sites to the United States
for genetic analyses. The requested
permit would be valid for five years
from issuance.
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), an initial
determination has been made that the
activity proposed is categorically
excluded from the requirement to
prepare an environmental assessment or
environmental impact statement.
Concurrent with the publication of
this notice in the Federal Register,
NMFS is forwarding copies of the
application to the Marine Mammal
Commission and its Committee of
Scientific Advisors.
