Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this POR. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in
Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping
duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials or conversion to
judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and terms of an APO is a
violation subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
Commerce is issuing and publishing
this notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: December 2, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

authority of the Marine Mammal
Protection Act of 1972, as amended
(MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) and the
regulations governing the taking of
marine mammals (50 CFR part 216).
The applicant proposes to film
humpback whales off the coast of Maui,

may be harassed during filming from
vessels, an unmanned aircraft system,
and underwater divers. The permit

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
It has come to the agency’s attention
that the 2016 interim final humpback
approach rule (50 CFR 216.19; 81 FR
62010, September 8, 2016) does not
explicitly exempt permits issued under
section 104(c)(6) of the MMPA from its
prohibitions. It is not the agency’s intent
to preclude the issuance of permits or
authorizations consistent with the
requirements of the MMPA. We
interpret the rule to allow issuance of
these permits. Consistent with this
interpretation, it has been our practice
to continue to issue section 104(c)(6)
permits that are in compliance with the
Act’s requirements and our review
procedures, as evidenced by issuance of
four such permits since the rule’s
effective date. However, to eliminate
any potential ambiguity, we intend to
revise the rule to explicitly clarify that
photography permits issued under
section 104(c)(6) of the MMPA are
exempt from the prohibitions on
approach.
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), an initial
determination has been made that the
activity proposed is categorically
excluded from the requirement to
prepare an environmental assessment or
environmental impact statement.
Concurrent with the publication of
this notice in the Federal Register,
NMFS is forwarding copies of the
application to the Marine Mammal
Commission and its Committee of
Scientific Advisors.
