Background
On October 1, 2020, Commerce
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on HR Steel
from Australia for the period October 1,
2019, through September 30, 2020.1 On
November 2, 2020, AK Steel

received no other requests for an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order.
On December 8, 2020, pursuant to
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i), we published in the
Federal Register a notice of initiation of
an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on HR Steel
from Australia with respect to
BlueScope Steel, Ltd.3 On March 3,
2021, the petitioners timely withdrew
their administrative review request for
BlueScope Steel, Ltd.4
Rescission of Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if a party that requested a review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of notice of
initiation of the requested review. The
petitioners withdrew their request for
review within 90 days of the publication
date of the Initiation Notice. No other
parties requested an administrative
review of the antidumping duty order.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding the
administrative review of the
antidumping order on HR Steel from
Australia for the period October 1, 2019,
through September 30, 2020, in its
entirety.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of HR Steel from Australia
during the POR at rates equal to the cash
deposit rate 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). Commerce intends
to issue appropriate assessment

October 30, 2020.

I. Abstract
The core mission of the National
Insitute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) is to promote U.S. innovation
and industrial competitiveness by
advancing measurement science,
standards, and technology in ways that
enhance economic security and improve
our quality of life. NIST’s operating
units across the agency increasingy
recognize that the built environment is
meant to serve social and economic
functions. With this in mind, NIST
proposes to conduct a number of data
collection efforts directly related to
decision-making across individuals,
insitutions, and communities relevant to
key research areas of the agency. The
use of decision and information sciecne
is critical to further the mission of NIST
to promote U.S. innovation and
industrial competitiveness. NIST
proposes to conduct a number of data
collection efforts in decision and
information science to include: Decision
analysis, risk analysis, cost-benefit and
cost-effectiveness analysis, constrained
optimization, simulation modeling, and
application of perception, information
processing, and decision models and
theories; and drawing on parts of
operations research, microeconomics,
statistical inference, management
control, cognitive and social
psychology, and computer science. By
focusing on decisions as the unit of
analysis, decision science provides a
unique framework for understanding
interactions across technologies, socioeconomic networks, organizations (e.g.,
institutions, firms), elements of the built
environment, and a range of ecological
problems and perceptions that influence
these decisions.
Data may be collected through a
variety of modes, including but not
limited to electronic or social media,
direct or indirect observation (i.e., inperson, video and audio collections),
interviews, structured questionnaires,
and focus groups.
II. Method of Collection
NIST will collect this information by
electronic means when possible, as well
as by mail, fax, telephone, technical
discussions, and in-person interviews.
NIST may also utilize observational
techniques to collect this information.
Furthermore, remuneration will be
offered to respondents when deemed
appropriate. Remuneration is justified
due to:
(1) The complex study design of many
collections requires ongoing
participation of various respondents,
each of whom is important to achieving
study goals. In such studies, should
