Background
On May 1, 2017, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of ‘‘Opportunity to Request
Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order on
polyethylene terephthalate resin from
Canada for the above POR.1 On May 31,
2017, 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 Compagnie Selenis Canada
(Selenis) to conduct an administrative
review.2
Pursuant to this request and in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i), on July 6, 2017, the
1 See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order,
Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
to Request Administrative Review, 82 FR 20315
(May 1, 2017).

of the Antidumping Duty Order on Polyethylene
Terephthalate Resin from Canada: Request for
Review,’’ dated May 31, 2017.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review if the party that
requested the review withdraws its
request within 90 days of the
publication date of the notice of
initiation of the requested review.
Selenis withdrew its review request
before the 90-day deadline, and no other
party requested an administrative
review of the antidumping duty order.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this
administrative review in its entirety.
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of polyethylene
terephthalate resin from Canada.
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 in the
Federal Register.
Notification to Importers
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review is being rescinded of their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.

Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 82 FR
31292 (July 6, 2017) (Initiation Notice).

of the Antidumping Duty Order on Polyethylene
Terephthalate Resin from Canada: Withdrawal of
Request for Review,’’ dated August 24, 2017.

Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305. 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
777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).
Dated: October 17, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the
MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) direct
the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary)
to allow, upon request, the incidental,
but not intentional taking of small
numbers of marine mammals by U.S.
citizens who engage in a specified
activity (other than commercial fishing)
within a specified geographic region if
certain findings are made and either
regulations are issued or, if the taking is
limited to harassment, notice of a
proposed authorization is provided to
the public for review.
An authorization for incidental
takings shall be granted if NMFS finds
that the taking will have a negligible
impact on the species or stock(s), will
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on the availability of the species or
stock(s) for subsistence uses (where
relevant), and if the permissible
methods of taking and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such takings are set
forth.
PO 00000
Frm 00016
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
48801
NMFS has defined ‘‘negligible
impact’’ in 50 CFR 216.103 as an impact
resulting from the specified activity that
cannot be reasonably expected to, and is
not reasonably likely to, adversely affect
the species or stock through effects on
annual rates of recruitment or survival.
The MMPA states that the term ‘‘take’’
means to harass, hunt, capture, kill or
attempt to harass, hunt, capture, or kill
any marine mammal.
Except with respect to certain
activities not pertinent here, the MMPA
defines ‘‘harassment’’ as: Any act of
pursuit, torment, or annoyance which (i)
has the potential to injure a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild (Level A harassment); or (ii) has
the potential to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of behavioral
patterns, including, but not limited to,
migration, breathing, nursing, breeding,
feeding, or sheltering (Level B
harassment).
The National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (Pub. L. 108–
136) removed the ‘‘small numbers’’ and
‘‘specified geographical region’’
limitations indicated above and
amended the definition of ‘‘harassment’’
as it applies to a ‘‘military readiness
activity’’ to read as follows (Section
3(18)(B) of the MMPA): (i) Any act that
injures or has the significant potential to
injure a marine mammal or marine
mammal stock in the wild (Level A
Harassment); or (ii) Any act that
disturbs or is likely to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of natural
behavioral patterns, including, but not
limited to, migration, surfacing, nursing,
breeding, feeding, or sheltering, to a
point where such behavioral patterns
are abandoned or significantly altered
(Level B Harassment).
Summary of Request
On October 12, 2017, NMFS received
an adequate and complete application
from the Navy requesting authorization
for take of marine mammals, by Level A
and B harassment, incidental to
training, testing, and routine military
operations (all categorized as military
readiness activities) from the use of
sonar and other transducers, in-water
detonations, airguns, and pile driving.
In addition, the Navy is requesting
authorization of three takes of large
whales by serious injury or mortality
resulting from vessel strikes. The
requested regulations would be valid for
five years, from 2018 through 2023.
This will be the third time NMFS has
promulgated incidental take regulations
pursuant to the MMPA relating to
similar military readiness activities in
