On, November 24, 2008 Commerce
published the AD and CVD orders on
LWTP from China.1 On October 1, 2013,
Commerce initiated the first five-year
(sunset) review of the Orders on LWTP
from China, pursuant to section 751(c)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act).2 As a result of its reviews,
Commerce determined that revocation
of the Orders on LWTP from China
would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and
countervailable subsidies and, therefore,
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
margins and net countervailable subsidy

rates likely to prevail should the orders
be revoked.3 The ITC determined,
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act,
that revocation of the Orders on LWTP
from China would lead to a
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time.4 Accordingly, the continuation of
the Orders was published on January 30,
2015, at the conclusion of the first fiveyear (sunset) reviews.5
On December 2, 2019, Commerce
published the notice of initiation of the
second sunset reviews of the Orders on
LWTP from China, pursuant to section
751(c)(2) of the Act.6 Also on December
2, 2019, the ITC instituted its five-year
review of the Orders.7 Commerce
conducted these sunset reviews on an
expedited (120-day) basis, pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), because it
received complete, timely, and adequate
responses from Appvion Operations,
Inc. and Kanzaki Specialty Papers Inc.
(collectively, domestic interested
parties).8 Commerce did not receivesubstantive responses from respondent
interested parties.
As a result of its reviews, Commerce
determined, pursuant to sections
751(c)(1) and 752(b) and (c) of the Act,
that revocation of the Orders would
likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping and countervailable

subsidies.9 Commerce also notified the
ITC of the magnitude of the dumping
margins and net countervailable subsidy
rates likely to prevail should the Orders
be revoked.10 On June 29, 2020, the ITC
published its determination, pursuant to
sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act,
that revocation of the Orders would
likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of material injury to an
industry in the United States within a
reasonably foreseeable time.11

orders.
13 A base coat, when applied, is typically made
of clay and/or latex and like materials and is
intended to cover the rough surface of the paper
substrate and to provide insulating value.
14 A thermal active coating is typically made of
sensitizer, dye, and co-reactant.
15 A top coat, when applied, is typically made of
polyvinyl acetone, polyvinyl alcohol, and/or like

SUMMARY:
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain
exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce
(as delegated to NMFS) 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
geographical region if certain findings
are made and either regulations are
issued or, if the taking is limited to
harassment, a notice of a proposed
incidental take authorization may be
provided to the public for review.
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Authorization for incidental takings
shall be granted if NMFS finds that the
taking will have a negligible impact on
the species or stock(s) and will not have
an unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
taking for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe
the permissible methods of taking and
other ‘‘means of effecting the least
practicable adverse impact’’ on the
affected species or stocks and their
habitat, paying particular attention to
rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of
similar significance, and on the
availability of the species or stocks for
taking for certain subsistence uses
(referred to in shorthand as
‘‘mitigation’’); and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of the takings are set forth.
The definitions of all applicable MMPA
statutory terms cited above are included
in the relevant sections below.
Summary of Request
On August 20, 2019, NMFS received
a request from Rio Grande for an IHA to
take marine mammals incidental to pile
driving associated with the construction
of a LNG terminal in the BSC. Rio
Grande submitted a revised application
on November 21, 2019 that was deemed
adequate and complete on December 19,
2019. Rio Grande’s request is for take of
a small number of three species of
marine mammals, by Level B
harassment only. Neither Rio Grande
nor NMFS expects serious injury or
mortality to result from these activities
and NMFS has not authorized it.
Separately, on June 27, 2019, NMFS
received a request from Annova for an
IHA to take marine mammals incidental
to pile driving associated with the
construction of a LNG terminal in the
BSC. Annova submitted a revised
application on February 28, 2020 that
was deemed adequate and complete on
March 2, 2020. Annova’s request is for
take of a small number of three species
of marine mammals, by Level B
harassment only. Neither Annova nor
NMFS expects serious injury or
mortality to result from this activity and
NMFS has not authorized it.
Description of Specified Activity
Overview
Rio Grande and Annova are each
planning to construct an LNG terminal
in the BSC, Texas. The purpose of each
project is to construct and operate an
LNG terminal for purposes of
international export. The LNG terminals
would be located across from each other
on opposite banks of the BSC. Both
projects require pile driving and

Background
On, November 24, 2008 Commerce published the AD and CVD orders on
LWTP from China.\1\ On October 1, 2013, Commerce initiated the first
five-year (sunset) review of the Orders on LWTP from China, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\ As a
result of its reviews, Commerce determined that revocation of the
Orders on LWTP from China would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and countervailable subsidies and, therefore,
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins and net
countervailable subsidy rates likely to prevail should the orders be
revoked.\3\ The ITC determined, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act,
that revocation of the Orders on LWTP from China would lead to a
continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.\4\ Accordingly, the
continuation of the Orders was published on January 30, 2015, at the
conclusion of the first five-year (sunset) reviews.\5\

Continuation of the Orders
As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that
revocation of the Orders would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping, countervailable subsidies, and material injury
to an industry in the United States, pursuant to sections 751(c) and
751(d)(2) of the Act, Commerce hereby orders the continuation of the
Orders on LWTP from China.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD and
CVD cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all
imports of subject merchandise. The effective date of the continuation
of the Orders will be the date of publication in the Federal Register
of this notice of continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next
five-year review of the orders not later than 30 days prior to the
fifth anniversary of the effective date of continuation.
Notification of Interested Parties
These five-year sunset reviews and this notice are in accordance
with section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).
Dated: June 29, 2020.
