Trade Commission (the ITC) have
determined that revocation of the
antidumping duty (AD) order on
diamond sawblades and parts thereof
(diamond sawblades) from the People’s
Republic of China (the PRC) would
likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping and material injury to an
industry in the United States. Therefore,
the Department is publishing a notice of
continuation for this AD order.
DATES: Effective Date: September 18,
2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In November 2014, the Department
initiated 1 and the ITC instituted 2 a fiveyear sunset review of the AD order on
diamond sawblades from the PRC
pursuant to sections 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As
a result of its review, the Department
determined that revocation of the AD
order would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping and notified
the ITC of the magnitude of the margins
likely to prevail should the AD order be
revoked, pursuant to sections 751(c)(1)
and 752(c) of the Act.3
On September 9, 2015, the ITC
published its determination that
revocation of the AD order on diamond
sawblades from the PRC would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time, pursuant to sections
751(c) of the Act.4
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
all finished circular sawblades, whether
slotted or not, with a working part that
is comprised of a diamond segment or
segments, and parts thereof, regardless
of specification or size, except as
specifically excluded below. Within the
scope of the order are semifinished

diamond sawblades, including diamond
sawblade cores and diamond sawblade
segments. Diamond sawblade cores are
circular steel plates, whether or not
attached to non-steel plates, with slots.
Diamond sawblade cores are
manufactured principally, but not
exclusively, from alloy steel. A diamond
sawblade segment consists of a mixture
of diamonds (whether natural or
synthetic, and regardless of the quantity
of diamonds) and metal powders
(including, but not limited to, iron,
cobalt, nickel, tungsten carbide) that are
formed together into a solid shape (from
generally, but not limited to, a heating
and pressing process).
Sawblades with diamonds directly
attached to the core with a resin or
electroplated bond, which thereby do
not contain a diamond segment, are not
included within the scope of the order.
Diamond sawblades and/or sawblade
cores with a thickness of less than 0.025
inches, or with a thickness greater than
1.1 inches, are excluded from the scope
of the order. Circular steel plates that
have a cutting edge of non-diamond
material, such as external teeth that
protrude from the outer diameter of the
plate, whether or not finished, are
excluded from the scope of the order.
Diamond sawblade cores with a
Rockwell C hardness of less than 25 are
excluded from the scope of the order.
Diamond sawblades and/or diamond
segment(s) with diamonds that
predominantly have a mesh size number
greater than 240 (such as 250 or 260) are
excluded from the scope of the order.
Merchandise subject to the order is
typically imported under heading
8202.39.00.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
When packaged together as a set for
retail sale with an item that is separately
classified under headings 8202 to 8205
of the HTSUS, diamond sawblades or
parts thereof may be imported under
heading 8206.00.00.00 of the HTSUS.
On October 11, 2011, the Department
included the 6804.21.00.00 HTSUS
classification number to the customs
case reference file, pursuant to a request
by U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP).5
The tariff classification is provided for
convenience and customs purposes;
however, the written description of the
scope of the order is dispositive.

orders the continuation of the AD order
on diamond sawblades from the PRC.
We will instruct CBP to continue to
collect AD cash deposits at the rates in
effect at the time of entry for all imports
of subject merchandise.
The effective date of the continuation

351.218(c)(2), the Department intends to
initiate the next five-year review of this
order not later than 30 days prior to the
fifth anniversary of the effective date of
this continuation notice.
This five-year sunset review and this
notice are in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).

NOAA’s National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) is seeking
comment on revised guidelines for the
Community-based Restoration Program
(Program). Since guidelines were first
issued in 2000, the Program has not
only evolved alongside the field of
habitat restoration but has been
designed to more effectively support
sustainable fisheries and contribute to
the recovery and conservation of
protected resources. These goals are
aligned with NMFS’ core mandates, the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act and
Endangered Species Act. The Program
has built a strong foundation of

on which they depend. This document
replaces previous guidelines and
describes the Program’s goals and scope
of implementation for FY 2016 and
beyond. This is not a solicitation of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
NMFS started the Community-based
Restoration Program (Program) in 1996
to provide technical and financial
assistance to support the
implementation of community-driven
habitat restoration. The Program
collaborates with partners to restore
coastal wetlands, coral reef, shellfish,
estuarine, and riverine habitat to benefit
coastal and marine species under NMFS
jurisdiction. Restoration implemented
under the Program include projects such
as dam removal and fish passage
projects, hydrologic reconnection
projects, shellfish and coral reef
restoration projects. To date, the
Program has implemented more than
1,700 habitat restoration projects in 37
states. It has restored more than 55,000
acres of habitat and opened 2,500 miles
of rivers and streams.
The Program is housed within the
NMFS Office of Habitat Conservation’s
Restoration Center and was authorized
in the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management
Reauthorization Act of 2006. Prior
guidelines for the Program were
provided at 65 FR 16890, March 30,
2000, and then revised at 73 FR 55816,
September 26, 2008. Since the
guidelines were last updated in 2008,
