Abstract: The mission of 4–H National
Headquarters; National Institute of Food
and Agriculture; United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA); is to
advance knowledge for agriculture, the
environment, human health and wellbeing, and communities by creating
opportunities for youth. 4–H is a
complex national organization, led by
4–H National Headquarters, NIFA,
USDA, with hundreds of educational
curricula, activities, and events for
youth ages 5 to 18. Programs originate
at 106 land-grant universities (LGUs),
and local programs are conducted and
managed by some 3,000 professional
Extension staff in 3,150 counties, with
nearly 6 million youth enrolled each
year. Over 500,000 volunteer leaders
work directly with the 4–H youth.
The 1914 Smith-Lever Act created the
Cooperative Extension System (CES) of
the LGUs and their Federal partner, the
Extension Service, now the National
Institute of Food and Agriculture

(NIFA), USDA. 4–H was already wellestablished and became the first
operating part of the new extension
work. The Smith-Lever Act stipulated
that ‘‘It shall be the duty of said
colleges, annually, on or about the first
day of January, to make to the Governor
of the State in which it is located a full
and detailed report of its operations in
extension work as defined in this Act
. . . a copy of which report shall be sent
to the Secretary of Agriculture.’’ As a
result of this requirement, annually each
county sends their state 4–H office an
electronic aggregated summary of their
4–H enrollment.
Information collected in the 4–H
Youth Enrollment Report includes
youth enrollment totals by delivery
mode, youth enrollment totals by type
of 4–H activity, youth enrollment totals
by school grade, youth enrollment totals
by gender, youth enrollment totals by
place of residence, adult volunteer
totals, youth volunteer totals, and youth
enrollment totals by race and ethnicity.
Need and Use of the Information: The
Annual 4–H Enrollment Report is the
principal means by which the 4–H
movement can keep track of its progress,
as well as emerging needs, potential
problems, and opportunities.
The information from this collection
is used to report, as requested by the
Congress or the Administration, on rural
versus urban outreach, enrollment by
race, youth participation in leadership,
community service, etc. It also is used
to determine market share or percentage
of the youth of each state by age and
place of residence who are enrolled in
the 4–H youth development program.
The annual 4–H Youth Enrollment
Report also allows oversight of all
reasonable efforts by staff and
volunteers to reach underserved and
minority groups.

estimates have not been modified from
the previous approval because there
have been no significant changes to the
collection.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
75.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 1.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 75 hours.

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this
review in its entirety.
Background
On February 3, 2016, the Department
published the notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on wind towers
from the PRC for the above POR.1 On
February 23, 2016, in accordance with
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), and 19 CFR
351.213(b), the Department received a
timely request from the Wind Tower
Trade Coalition (‘‘Petitioner’’) to
conduct an administrative review.2
Pursuant to this request and in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i), on April 7, 2016, the
Department published a notice of
initiation of an administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on wind
towers from the PRC.3 On July 6, 2016,
Petitioner withdrew its request for an
administrative review.4
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of wind towers from
the PRC. Antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department
intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of this notice of
rescission of administrative review.
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the party that requested a review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the publication date of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. As
noted above, Petitioner withdrew its
request for review within 90 days of the
publication date of the Initiation Notice.
No other parties requested an
administrative review of the order.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR
1 See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order,
Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
to Request Administrative Review, 81 FR 5712
(February 3, 2016).
2 See Letter from Petitioner, ‘‘Utility Scale Wind
Towers from the People’s Republic of China:
Request for Administrative Review,’’ dated
February 23, 2016.
3 See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 81 FR
20324 (April 7, 2016) (‘‘Initiation Notice’’).
4 See Letter from Petitioner, ‘‘Utility Scale Wind
Towers from the People’s Republic of China:
Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review,’’
dated July 6, 2016.

Assessment
Notifications
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers for whom this
review is being rescinded of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues
to govern business proprietary
information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification
of the return/destruction of APO
materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and terms of an APO is a violation
which is subject to sanction.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 751(a)(1) and
