allegations to be generally applicable
(rather than company-specific), and also
alleged that there was the potential for
unaddressed evasion absent countrywide inquiries.12 Based on these
considerations, Commerce is initiating
these circumvention inquiries on a
country-wide basis.
Suspension of Liquidation
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.226(l)(1),
Commerce will notify U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) of the initiation
of circumvention inquiries and will
direct CBP to continue the suspension
of liquidation of entries of products
subject to these circumvention inquiries
that were already subject to the
suspension of liquidation under the
orders and to apply the cash deposit rate
that would be applicable if the products
were determined to be covered by the
applicable scope. Should Commerce
issue affirmative preliminary or final
circumvention determinations,
Commerce will follow the suspension of
liquidation rules under 19 CFR
351.226(l)(2)–(4).
Notification to Interested Parties
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(d)
and section 781(a) of the Act, Commerce
determines that Vulcan’s request for
circumvention inquiries relating to the
2020 AD Order and the 2020 CVD Order
satisfies the requirements of 19 CFR
351.226(c). Accordingly, Commerce is
notifying all interested parties of the
initiation of these circumvention
inquiries to determine whether alloy
steel threaded rod produced in the
United States from unthreaded pins
imported from China is circumventing
these orders.
Additionally, we are hereby providing
interested parties with an opportunity to
comment on any additional entities—
i.e., importers, exporters, producers—
that are involved in the supply, sale, or
production related to alloy steel
threaded rod completed in the United
States using unthreaded pins imported
from China. Comments on the identity
of such entities are due within seven
days of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register.
We have included a description of the
products that are subject to these
inquiries and an explanation of
Commerce’s decision to initiate in the
accompanying Initiation Checklists.13 In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(e)(1),
Commerce intends to issue its
preliminary circumvention
determinations no later than 150 days
from the date of publication of the
notice of initiation of these
circumvention inquiries in the Federal
Register.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 781(a) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.226(d)(1)(ii).
Dated: July 6, 2023,
Lisa W. Wang,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA, Federal agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of Information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3
and includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal agencies
to provide a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the CFTC is publishing
notice of the collection of information
listed below. An agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB number.
Title: Rules Relating to the Operations
and Activities of Commodity Pool
Operators and Commodity Trading
Advisors and to Monthly Reporting by
Futures Commission Merchants (OMB
control number 3038–0005). This is a
request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: The various collections of
information required by part 4 1 of the
Commission’s regulations were
previously approved by OMB in
accordance with the PRA and assigned
OMB control number 3038–0005. The
Commission offers the following
summary of the renewal to the notice
and the resulting estimated impact on
existing burden hour estimates
associated with this information
collection.
The Commodity Exchange Act (CEA)
empowers the Commission with the
authority to require commodity pool
operators (CPOs) and commodity
trading advisors (CTAs) to maintain
books and records and to file reports as
required by the Commission.2 The
Commission also has the power to
promulgate such regulations as it deems
necessary to implement the purposes of
PO 00000
CFR 4.1–4.41.
U.S.C. 6n(3).
the CEA.3 It is pursuant to this authority
that the Commission has promulgated
the various compliance requirements for
CPOs and CTAs in 17 CFR part 4. The
reporting, filing, and recordkeeping
requirements within part 4 of the
Commission’s regulations were adopted
to assist and inform customers, to
establish customer protection initiatives
for investors, to facilitate monitoring
intermediary compliance with part 4
regulations by the Commission and its
delegee, the National Futures
Association (NFA), and to enable the
Commission to better monitor the
market risks posed by its registrants.
The information collections are
necessary to enable the Commission and
NFA to accomplish the purposes of both
the CEA and the compliance regime set
forth in part 4 of the Commission’s
regulations.
With regard to the information
collection discussed above, the CFTC
invites comments on:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have a practical use;
• The accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
revision to the collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Ways to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
further use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology;
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
You should submit only information
that you wish to make available
publicly. If you wish the Commission to
consider information that you believe is
exempt from disclosure under the
Freedom of Information Act, a petition
for confidential treatment of the exempt
information may be submitted according
to the procedures established in § 145.9
of the Commission’s regulations.4
The Commission reserves the right,
but shall have no obligation, to review,
pre-screen, filter, redact, refuse or
remove any or all of your submission
from https://www.cftc.gov that it may
deem to be inappropriate for
publication, such as obscene language.
