Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 249 / Wednesday, December 28, 2016 / Notices Follow-Up Reminder Design The NSCH historically was conducted in a partnership between the Health Services Resources Administration’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau and the National Center for Health Statistics. As such, the survey information was sent to respondents under letterhead from the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with the Director of NCHS signing the letters to the respondent. In the 2016 NSCH, we tested both standard contact branding utilized for Census Bureau surveys, which included Census Bureau letterhead and the Census Director’s signature, and an alternative sent with HRSA MCHB branding. The first follow-up mailing, sent to non-responding households approximately three-weeks after their initial invitation to respond to the survey by web, was split into two groups. The first group was sent a reminder to participate with their web login and password under standard Census Bureau letterhead. The second group was sent their reminder under a HRSA MCHB letterhead. The differential success of these reminder treatments continues to be evaluated. However, initial results lean toward the majority of respondents preferring Census Bureau letterhead. These results have aided in our decision to go with Census Bureau branding on all mailed materials. sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES Non-Response Follow-Up for the HighInternet Group and Low-Internet Group The high-Internet group will receive two additional web survey invitation letters requesting their participation in the survey prior to receiving their first paper screener questionnaire in the third follow-up mailing. The lowInternet group will receive both a web survey invitation letter along with a mailed paper screener questionnaire with each follow-up mailing. Once a household in the high-Internet group receives a paper screener questionnaire, they will then have the option to either complete the web-based survey or complete the mailed paper screener similar to the low-Internet group. If the household chooses to complete the mailed paper questionnaire, then they would then be considered part of the mailout/mailback paper-and-pencil interviewing treatment group and would receive a paper topical questionnaire if there is at least one eligible child who is 0 to 17 years old listed on the screener.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) is conducting new shipper reviews (‘‘NSR’’) of the antidumping duty order on multilayered wood flooring (‘‘MLWF’’) from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’). The review covers two exporters of subject merchandise, Jiangsu Keri Wood Co., Ltd. (‘‘Keri Wood’’) and Zhejiang Simite Wooden Co., Ltd. (‘‘Simite Wooden’’). The Department preliminarily determines that Keri Wood did not make sales of subject merchandise at less than normal value. The period of review (‘‘POR’’) is December 1, 2014, through November 30, 2015. The Department also preliminarily determines that Simite Wooden’s sale to the United States is not bona fide, as required by section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). Therefore, we are preliminarily rescinding the NSR with respect to Simite Wooden. Interested parties are invited to comment on the preliminary results of these reviews.
