emergency and will collect information
from USITC personnel (political
appointees, employees, detailees,
interns, and volunteers), contractors,

become effective upon publication in
today’s Federal Register, with the
exception of the routine uses that will

persons can obtain information on this
matter by contacting the Commission’s
TDD terminal on 202–205–1810.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: To collect
and maintain contractor, visitor, and job
applicant disclosures, the USITC is
establishing ITC–4, Public Health and
Safety Records, a system of records
under the Privacy Act. The USITC is
committed to maintaining a safe and
healthy workplace and to protect its
workforce from risks associated with a
public health emergency. To ensure and
maintain the safety of all USITC
personnel, contractors, visitors, job
applicants, and others who access or
seek to access the USITC worksite
during a public health emergency, the
USITC may develop and institute safety
measures that require the collection of
personal information. For further
information on how the USITC will
maintain records relating to employee
requests for reasonable and religious
accommodations, please refer to ITC–3,
Reasonable Accommodation Records.
Records may include information on
individuals’ vaccination status and
information related to accommodations
based on disability or a sincerely held
religious belief. Records may also
include information on individuals who
have been suspected or confirmed to
have contracted a disease or illness, or
who have been exposed to an individual
who had been suspected or confirmed to
have contracted a disease or illness,
related to a declared public health
emergency. Records may also include
information on the individual
circumstances surrounding the disease
or illness, such as dates of suspected
exposure, testing results, symptoms,
treatments, and other related health
status information. Any contact tracing
that the USITC conducts will involve
collecting information about USITC
personnel, contractors, and visitors who
are exhibiting symptoms or who have
tested positive for an infectious disease
in order to identify and notify other
USITC personnel, contractors, and
visitors with whom they may have come
into contact and who may have been
exposed.
As required by subsection 552a(r) of
the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(r)), the
USITC has provided a report to the
Office of Management and Budget, the

system include, but are not limited to:
Biographical information (name and
contact information); health information
(body temperature, dates of and
symptoms relating to a potential or
actual exposure to a pathogen,
vaccination information, medical
information); information indicating
that an individual has received an
accommodation based on disability or
sincerely held religious belief, practice,
or observance; contact tracing
information (dates of visits to the USITC
worksite, locations visited within the
USITC worksite; duration of time spent
in each location, potential contacts
between potentially contagious persons
and others at the USITC worksite);
testing results (negative test results,

HISTORY:
the subject merchandise as ‘‘gaspowered, walk-behind snow throwers
(also known as snow blowers), which
are snow moving machines that are
powered by internal combustion
engines and primarily pedestriancontrolled. The scope of these
investigations covers certain snow
throwers (also known as snow blowers),
whether self-propelled or non-selfpropelled, whether finished or
unfinished, whether assembled or
unassembled, and whether containing
any additional features that provide for
functions in addition to snow throwing.
Subject merchandise also includes
finished and unfinished snow throwers
that are further processed in a third
country or in the United States,
including, but not limited to, assembly
or any other processing that would not
otherwise remove the merchandise from
the scope of these investigations if
performed in the country of
manufacture of the in-scope snow
throwers. Specifically excluded is
merchandise covered by the scope of the
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders on certain vertical shaft engines
between 225cc and 999cc, and parts
thereof from the People’s Republic of
China. Also specifically excluded is
merchandise covered by the scope of the
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders on certain vertical shaft engines
between 99cc and Up to 225cc, and
parts thereof from the People’s Republic
of China.’’ For Commerce’s complete
scope and tariff treatment, see 86 FR
61135, November 5, 2021.
Background.—The final phase of
these investigations is being scheduled
pursuant to sections 705(b) and 731(b)
of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1671d(b) and 1673d(b)), as a result of
affirmative preliminary determinations
by Commerce that certain benefits
which constitute subsidies within the
meaning of § 703 of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1671b) are being provided to
manufacturers, producers, or exporters
in China of walk-behind snow throwers,
and that such products are being sold in
the United States at less than fair value
within the meaning of § 733 of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 1673b). The investigations
were requested in petitions filed on
March 30, 2021, by MTD Products Inc.,
Valley City, Ohio.

the conduct of this phase of the
investigations, hearing procedures, and
rules of general application, consult the
