Act, Commerce will notify the
International Trade Commission (ITC) of
these preliminary determinations to
include the merchandise subject to
these anti-circumvention inquiries
within the antidumping and
countervailing duty orders on OCTG
from China. Pursuant to section 781(e)
of the Act, the ITC may request
consultations concerning Commerce’s
proposed inclusion of the subject
merchandise. If, after consultations, the
ITC believes that a significant injury
issue is presented by the proposed
inclusion, it will have 60 days from the
date of notification by Commerce to
provide written advice.
Final Determinations
According to section 781(f) of the Act,
Commerce shall, to the maximum extent
practicable, make its anti-circumvention
determination within 300 days from the
date of the initiation of the inquiry.8
Due to the complicated nature of these
anti-circumvention inquiries, we are
hereby extending the deadline for the
final determinations of these anticircumvention inquiries by 50 days.
Therefore, Commerce intends to issue
the final determinations of these anticircumvention inquiries to October 28,
2021.
These preliminary affirmative
circumvention determinations are
published in accordance with section

ACTION: Notice, Issuance of 14
Enhancement of Survival Permits.
AGENCY:
Notice is hereby given that
NMFS has issued 14 enhancement of
survival permits (Permit Numbers
23271, 23276, 23278, 23279, 23280,
23284, 23285, 23286, 23287, 23288,
23289, 23290, 23291, 23434) for
enhancement and monitoring purposes
associated with the Template Safe
Harbor Agreement for Conservation of
Coho Salmon in the Shasta River
(Agreement) and associated Site Plans
Agreements developed for the enrolled
properties.
ADDRESSES: The Agreement, Site Plan
Agreements, permits, and supporting
documents are available upon written
request or by appointment: California
Coastal Office, NMFS WCR, 1655

SUMMARY:
The
issuance of permits under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973
(ESA)(16 U.S.C. 1531–1543) is based on
a finding that such permits: (1) Are
applied for in good faith; (2) would not
operate to the disadvantage of the ESAlisted species which are the subject of
the permits; and (3) are consistent with
the purposes and policies set forth in
section 2 of the ESA. Authority to take
listed species is subject to conditions set
forth in the permits. Permits are issued
in accordance with and are subject to
the ESA and NMFS regulations (50 CFR
parts 222–226) governing listed marine
and anadromous species.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Species Covered in This Notice
The following listed species is
covered in this notice:
Threatened Southern Oregon/
Northern California Coast (SONCC)
coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch;
covered species).
Permits Issued
Twelve permittees have been issued
enhancement of survival permits upon
entry into the Agreement, which was
developed by NMFS, California
Department of Fish and Wildlife
(CDFW), the Shasta Watershed
Conservation Group (SWCG), and the
permittees (Table 1). The 12 permittees
(Table 1) each developed site plan
agreements for their respective
properties (i.e., Enrolled Properties) that
describe management activities that will
be implemented, including Beneficial
Management Activities (BMAs), as
defined in the Agreement. The Site Plan
Agreements, Agreement, and
enhancement of survival permits are
expected to promote the recovery of the
covered species on enrolled properties
within the Shasta River watershed in
the Agreement area (see Figure 1 in the
Agreement). The Shasta River is a
tributary to the Klamath River and is in
Siskiyou County, California. The
duration of the Agreement and the
associated enhancement of survival
permits is 20 years.

The enhancement of survival permits
authorize the incidental taking of the
covered species associated with routine
agricultural activities, implementation
of BMAs, and the potential future return
of the enrolled property to the baseline
or elevated baseline conditions
identified in the respective Site Plan
Agreement. Under the enhancement of
survival permits, Site Plan Agreements,
and Agreement, the permittees specify
the restoration and/or enhancement,
and management activities to be carried
out on the enrolled properties and a
timetable for implementing those
activities. NMFS prepared a biological
opinion under section 7(a)(2) of the ESA
to determine whether NMFS’ actions of
entering into the Agreement and the 14
associated Site Plan Agreements, and
issuing the 14 section 10(a)(1)(A)
enhancement of survival permits, would
result in jeopardy to the covered species
or destroy or adversely modify their
designated critical habitat. NMFS
determined that these actions would not
result in jeopardy or destruction or
adverse modification of designated
critical habitat. NMFS also determined
that the Agreement and Site Plan
Agreements will result in a net
conservation benefit for the covered
species and meet all required standards
of NMFS’ Safe Harbor Policy (64 FR
32717; June 17, 1999). The Agreement
and Site Plan Agreements specify
baseline or elevated baseline conditions
for the enrolled properties and include
restoration/enhancement activities that
will be completed by the permittee to
achieve the specified conditions. The

Agreement also contains a monitoring
component and an Adaptive
Management Program that requires the
permittees to ensure compliance with
the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, and to ensure that the
baseline or elevated baseline conditions
of habitat for the covered species occur
on the enrolled properties. Results of
the monitoring efforts will be provided
to NMFS by the permittees in annual
reports for the duration of the 20-year
permit term. In addition to reviewing
annual reports submitted by SWCG,
NMFS, and CDFW will conduct a fiveyear review to assess the effectiveness of
the Agreement.
At the end of the permit term and
Agreement, the enhancement of survival
permits authorize the permittees to
incidentally take covered species
associated with a return to baseline or
elevated baseline conditions if desired
and in compliance with the terms and
conditions of the permits.
