SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) continues to determine that Bomei Tex Ltd. (Bomei) and Saffron Living Co., Ltd. (Saffron Living), the two companies subject to this administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on uncovered innerspring units (innersprings) from the People’s Republic of China (China), are part of the China-wide entity. The period of review (POR) is February 1, 2021, through January 31, 2022. DATES: Applicable February 6, 2023. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher Maciuba, AD/CVD Operations, Office V, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–0413. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background Commerce published the preliminary results of this administrative review on October 25, 2022.1 We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. No party submitted comments. Accordingly, the final results are unchanged from the Preliminary Results. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Order 2 Scope of the The merchandise subject to the Order is uncovered innerspring units. For a full description of the scope of the Order, see Preliminary Results.3 DDrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES Final Results of Administrative Review We received no comments on, and made no changes to, the Preliminary Results. We continue to find that neither 1 See Uncovered Innerspring Units from the People’s Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2021– 2022, 87 FR 64435 (October 25, 2022) (Preliminary Results). 2 See Uncovered Innerspring Units from the People’s Republic of China: Notice of Antidumping Duty Order, 74 FR 7661 (February 19, 2009) (Order). 3 See Preliminary Results, 87 FR at 64435–36. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:51 Feb 03, 2023 Jkt 259001 Bomei nor Saffron Living filed a noshipment certification, a separate rate application, or a separate rate certification. Thus, Commerce continues to determine that these companies have not demonstrated their eligibility for separate rate status and, therefore, we determine that these companies are part of the China-wide entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, and we did not self-initiate a review, the China-wide entity rate (i.e., 234.51 percent) is not subject to change as a result of this review.4 Assessment Rates Commerce will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act. For Bomei and Saffron Living, we will instruct CBP to apply the China-wide rate of 234.51 percent to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 90 days of publication). Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of review, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters who are not under review in this segment of the proceeding but have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the most recent period; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate (including Bomei and Saffron Living), the cash deposit rate will be the Chinawide rate of 234.51 percent; and (3) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to Chinese 4 See PO 00000 Order, 74 FR at 7662. Frm 00015 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 exporter(s) that supplied that nonChinese exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice also serves as a 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 antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders This notice also serves as the only 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(a)(3), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of APO, or conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction. Notification to Interested Parties We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(5).

We invite the general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of our information collection requirements and minimize the public’s reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on September 2, 2022 (87 FR 19080) during a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce. Title: West Coast Fisheries Participation Survey. OMB Control Number: 0648–0749. Form Number(s): None. Type of Request: Regular submission (revision and extension of a current information collection). Number of Respondents: 2,725. Average Hours per Response: 15 minutes. Total Annual Burden Hours: 227. PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7689 Needs and Uses: This is a request for a revision and extension of a currently approved information collection, approved under the authority and goals of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Fishing livelihoods are both centrally dependent on marine ecosystems and part of the set of forces acting on other components of these ecosystems, including the ecosystem’s resident fish and marine species. Alongside social factors like economics and management actions, biophysical dynamics within the ecosystems, including fisheries population fluctuations, shape fishing livelihoods. However, the decisions fishermen make regarding which fisheries to access and when to access them are not fully understood, particularly within the holistic food web frameworks offered up by ecosystembased approaches to research and management. Moreover, a full understanding and predictive capacity for these movements of fishermen across fisheries in the context of ecological and social variability presents a significant gap in management-oriented knowledge. Managing fisheries in a way that enhances their social and economic value, mitigates risks to ecosystems and livelihoods, and facilitates sustainable adaptation, requires this fundamental knowledge. For this reason, the Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC) seeks to conduct fisheries participation analyses which involve repeated followup surveys of United States (U.S.) West Coast commercial fishing participants. A U.S. mail survey will be conducted, replicating the survey administered during 2017 and 2020, with slight changes in questions about direct marketing of catch and community infrastructure. The survey will be voluntary, and contacted individuals may decline to participate. Respondents will be asked to answer questions about their motivations for fishing and other factors that affect participation in the suite of West Coast commercial fisheries. Fishing employment information will be collected so that responses can be organized based on a respondent typology. This survey is essential because data on smaller scale fishing practices, values, participation decisions and beliefs about fishing livelihoods are sparse; yet, they are critical to the development of usable fishery ecosystem models that account for non-pecuniary benefits of fishing, as well as the ways in which fishing practices shape individual and community well-being. Affected Public: Individuals or households. E:\FR\FM\06FEN1.SGM 06FEN1
