Background
On January 13, 2016, Tensar
Corporation, Morrow, Georgia filed a
petition with the Commission and
Commerce, alleging that an industry in
the United States is materially injured
or threatened with material injury by
reason of LTFV and subsidized imports
of certain biaxial integral geogrid
products from China. Accordingly,
effective January 13, 2016, the
Commission, pursuant to sections 703(a)
and 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19
U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)), instituted
countervailing duty investigation No.
701–TA–554 and antidumping duty
investigation No. 731–TA–1309
(Preliminary).
Notice of the institution of the
Commission’s investigations and of a
public conference to be held in
connection therewith was given by
posting copies of the notice in the Office
of the Secretary, U.S. International
Trade Commission, Washington, DC,
and by publishing the notice in the
Federal Register of January 20, 2016 (81
FR 3157). The conference was held in
Washington, DC, on February 3, 2016,
and all persons who requested the
opportunity were permitted to appear in
person or by counsel.
The Commission made these
determinations pursuant to sections
703(a) and 733(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)).
It completed and filed its
determinations in these investigations
on February 29, 2016. The views of the

Determinations
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject investigations, the United
States International Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant
to the Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’),
that there is a reasonable indication that
an industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports
of certain biaxial integral geogrid
products from China, provided for in
subheading 3926.90.99 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States, that are alleged to be sold
in the United States at less than fair
value (‘‘LTFV’’) and that are allegedly
subsidized by the government of China.
Commencement of Final Phase
Investigations
Pursuant to section 207.18 of the
Commission’s rules, the Commission
also gives notice of the commencement
of the final phase of its investigations.
The Commission will issue a final phase
notice of scheduling, which will be
published in the Federal Register as
provided in section 207.21 of the
Commission’s rules, upon notice from
the Department of Commerce
(‘‘Commerce’’) of affirmative
preliminary determinations in the
investigations under sections 703(b) or
733(b) of the Act, or, if the preliminary
determinations are negative, upon
notice of affirmative final
determinations in those investigations
under sections 705(a) or 735(a) of the
Act. Parties that filed entries of
appearance in the preliminary phase of
the investigations need not enter a
separate appearance for the final phase
of the investigations. Industrial users,
and, if the merchandise under
investigation is sold at the retail level,
representative consumer organizations
have the right to appear as parties in
Commission antidumping and
countervailing duty investigations. The
Secretary will prepare a public service

Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Air
Act
On February 26, 2016, the Department

decree with the United States District
Court for the Northern District of
California in the lawsuit entitled United
States and North Coast Unified Air
Frm 00084
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Quality Management District v. Blue
Lake Power, LLC, Civil Action No. 3:16–
cv–00961.
The United States and the North Coast
Unified Air Quality Management
District (‘‘District’’) filed this lawsuit
under the Clean Air Act. The complaint
seeks injunctive relief and civil
penalties for violations of the Clean Air
Act’s Prevention of Significant
Deterioration provisions, 42 U.S.C.
7470–92, and the North Coast Unified
Air Quality Management District Rules
at Defendant Blue Lake Power, LLC’s
biomass-fired electric generating plant
in Blue Lake, California. Specifically,
the complaint alleges that, when
defendant restarted the plant in 2010, it
failed to obtain appropriate permits and
failed to install and operate required
pollution control devices to reduce
emissions of carbon monoxide (CO),
oxides of nitrogen (NOX), and/or
particulate matter with a diameter of 10
microns (PM10) at its facility.
The proposed consent decree requires
the defendant to perform injunctive
relief and pay a $5,000 civil penalty to
be shared between the United States and
the District. The defendant is required
to install and operate pollution control
equipment at its facility, meet emission
limitations for CO, NOX, and PM10, and
adopt operational procedures to reduce
additional emissions of particulate
matter from the facility. In addition,
Blue Lake Power will contribute
$10,000 to the District’s wood stove
replacement program in order to
mitigate the adverse effects of past
particulate matter emissions from the
facility.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed consent decree. Comments
should be addressed to the Assistant
Attorney General, Environment and
Natural Resources Division, and should
refer to United States and North Coast
