displays a currently valid OMB control

Food and Nutrition Service
Title: 2023 Pulse Survey: Operational
Challenges in Child Nutrition Programs.
OMB Control Number: 0584–NEW.
Summary of Collection: FNS
administers the Child Nutrition (CN)
Programs in partnership with States,
local SFAs, other program sponsors, and
local program operators. Section 28(a) of
the Richard B. Russell National School
Lunch Act authorizes the U.S.
Department of Agriculture Secretary to
conduct annual national performance
assessments of the school meal
programs and requires States and local
entities participating in the programs to
cooperate with program research and
evaluations. FNS plans to collect
periodic data to obtain information on
operational challenges facing
institutions who operate or administer
child nutrition programs, including
State agencies, SFAs and Summer Food
Service Program (SFSP) Sponsors. The
Operational Challenges in Child
Nutrition Programs (OCCNP) Surveys,
are designed to collect timely data on
emerging school food service
operational challenges, including but
not limited to supply chain disruptions,
food costs, and labor shortages, and/or
related issues in SY 2023–2024, 2024–
2025, and SY 2025–2026.
Need and Use of the Information:
Access to a timely and reliable source of
data on these topics has become
particularly important following the
COVID–19 pandemic. In addition to
changing the ways that school meal
programs operated, the pandemic has
contributed to lasting supply chain
issues and substantial changes in the
cost and availability of food and labor.
The ability to collect this data will allow
FNS to provide the best possible
support to States and program sponsors
and operators facing continued food
service operations challenges and
enable FNS to respond more quickly
and effectively to potential disruptions
in the future.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of the
comments received from interested
parties, Commerce made certain
changes to the margin calculations for
Assan Aluminyum Sanayi ve Ticaret
A.S. (Assan) and Teknik Aluminyum
Sanayi A.S. (Teknik).4
Rate for Non-Examined Companies
The statute and Commerce’s
regulations do not address the
establishment of a weighted-average
dumping margin to be determined for
companies not selected for individual
examination when Commerce limits its
examination in an administrative review
pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the
Act. Generally, Commerce looks to
section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which
provides instructions for calculating the
all-others rate in an investigation, for
guidance when determining the
weighted-average dumping margin for
companies which were not selected for
individual examination in an
administrative review. Under section
735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others
rate is normally an amount equal to the
weighted average of the estimated
weighted-average dumping margins
established for exporters and producers
individually investigated, excluding
rates that are zero, de minimis, or
determined entirely on the basis of facts
available. For these final results of
review, we calculated weighted-average
dumping margins for Assan and Teknik
that are not zero, de minimis, or based
entirely on facts available. Therefore,
consistent with Commerce’s practice,
we determined a dumping margin for
the non-examined companies by weightaveraging the margins for Assan and
Teknik using publicly ranged sales
values for sales of subject merchandise
to the United States.
Final Results of the Administrative
Review
We determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margins
exist for the period October 15, 2020,
through March 31, 2022.
