Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results,
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.6
We will calculate importer-specific ad
valorem duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for the
examined sales to the total entered
value of the examined sales to that
importer. Where either the respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis within the meaning
of 19 CFR 351.106(c), or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.7
The final results of this review shall be
the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise covered by the final results
of this review and for future deposits of
estimated duties, where applicable.8

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for LGE will be
the rate established in the final results
of this review, except if the rate is less
than 0.50 percent and, therefore, de
minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated
companies not participating in this
review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate
published for the most recent period; (3)
if the exporter is not a firm covered in
this review, a prior review, or the lessthan-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but
the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the
most recent period for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 11.80
percent, the all-others rate established
in the LTFV investigation.9 These
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a
preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping and/
or countervailing 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 antidumping
duties and/or countervailing duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(4).

AGENCY:
Under applicable Federal
regulations, notice is hereby given that
the Stewardship Division, Office for
Coastal Management, National Ocean
Service, National Oceanic and

Department of Commerce approves the
revised Management Plan for the
Jacques Cousteau, New Jersey National

Jacques Cousteau Reserve revised its
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
Management Plan, which will replace
the plan previously approved in 2009.
The revised Management Plan
outlines the administrative structure;
the research/monitoring, stewardship,
education, and training programs of the
Reserve; and the plans for future land
acquisition and facility development to
support Reserve operations.
The Jacques Cousteau Reserve takes
an integrated approach to management,
linking research, education, coastal
training, and stewardship functions.
The Reserve has outlined how it will
manage administration and its core
program providing detailed actions that
will enable it to accomplish specific
goals and objectives. Since the last
management plan, the reserve has:
Developed core programs; expanded
monitoring programs within Jacques
Cousteau and its watershed; enhanced
exhibits and trails; provided technical
assistance to coastal communities
throughout the state of New Jersey,
conducted training workshops;
implemented K–12 education programs;
and built new and innovative
partnerships with local, state, regional,
and U.S. organizations and universities.
On January 9, 2018, NOAA issued a
notice of a thirty day public comment
period for the Jacques Cousteau Reserve
revised plan (83 FR 1027). Responses to
the written and oral comments received,
and an explanation of how comments
were incorporated into the final revised
plan, are available in Appendix D of the
revised plan.
The revised Management Plan will
serve as the guiding document for the
Jacques Cousteau Reserve. View the

The impacts of the revised
management plan have not changed and
the initial Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) prepared at the time of
designation is still valid. NOAA has
made the determination that the
revision of the management plan will
not have a significant effect on the
human environment and therefore
qualifies for a categorical exclusion
under NOAA Administrative Order
216–6. An environmental assessment
will not be prepared.

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for LGE will be the
rate established in the final results of this review, except if the
rate is less than 0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis within the
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate
will be zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not
participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or
the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent
period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to
be 11.80 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation.\9\ These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing 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 antidumping duties and/or
countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
