under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries

duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping
duties.

to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance

written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
AGENCY:
On November 4, 2015, NMFS
published a notice inviting qualified
commercial shark permit holders to
submit applications to participate in the
2016 shark research fishery. The shark
research fishery allows for the collection
of fishery-dependent data for future
stock assessments and cooperative
research with commercial fishermen to
meet the shark research objectives of the
Agency. Every year, the permit terms
and permitted activities (e.g., number of
hooks and retention limits) specifically
authorized for selected participants in
the shark research fishery are designated
depending on the scientific and research
needs of the Agency, as well as the
number of NMFS-approved observers
available. In order to inform selected
participants of this year’s specific
permit requirements and ensure all
terms and conditions of the permit are
met, NMFS is holding a mandatory
permit holder meeting (via conference
call) for selected participants. The date
and time of that meeting is announced
in this notice.
DATES: A conference call will be held on
January 15, 2016.
ADDRESSES: A conference call will be
conducted. See SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION for information on how to
access the conference call.

Atlantic shark fisheries are managed
