Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 227 / Tuesday, November 28, 2023 / Notices Disclosure Because Commerce received no comments on the Preliminary Results, we have not modified our analysis, and no decision memorandum accompanies this Federal Register notice. We are adopting the Preliminary Results as the final results of this review. Consequently, there are no new calculations to disclose in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b) for these final results of review. Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. Because the respondent’s weighted-average dumping margin or importer-specific assessment rates are zero or de minimis in the final results of review, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the entries without regard to antidumping duties.5 These final results of administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.6 For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by NEXTEEL Co., Ltd. for which it did not know that the merchandise it sold was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.7 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). lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 5 See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8102– 03 (February 14, 2012); see also 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). 6 See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act. 7 For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).

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 review period. 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. Administrative Protective Order This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the disposition 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 return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alyssa Clevenstine, Office of Protected Resources, NMFS, (301) 427–8401. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of marine mammals, with certain exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce (as delegated to NMFS) to allow, upon request, the incidental, but not intentional, taking of small numbers of marine mammals by U.S. citizens who engage in a specified activity (other than commercial fishing) within a specified geographical region if certain findings are made and either regulations are proposed or, if the taking is limited to harassment, a notice of a proposed IHA is provided to the public for review. Authorization for incidental takings shall be granted if NMFS finds that the taking will have a negligible impact on the species or stock(s) and will not have an unmitigable adverse impact on the availability of the species or stock(s) for taking for subsistence uses (where relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe the permissible methods of taking and other ‘‘means of effecting the least practicable adverse impact’’ on the affected species or stocks and their habitat, paying particular attention to rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of similar significance, and on the availability of the species or stocks for PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 83081 taking for certain subsistence uses (referred to in shorthand as ‘‘mitigation’’); and requirements pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring and reporting of the takings are set forth. The definitions of all applicable MMPA statutory terms cited above are included in the relevant sections below. National Environmental Policy Act To comply with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and NOAA Administrative Order (NAO) 216–6A, NMFS must review our proposed action (i.e., the issuance of an IHA) with respect to potential impacts on the human environment. This action is consistent with categories of activities identified in Categorical Exclusion B4 (IHAs with no anticipated serious injury or mortality) of the Companion Manual for NAO 216– 6A, which do not individually or cumulatively have the potential for significant impacts on the quality of the human environment and for which we have not identified any extraordinary circumstances that would preclude this categorical exclusion. Accordingly, NMFS has preliminarily determined that the issuance of the proposed IHA qualifies to be categorically excluded from further NEPA review. We will review all comments submitted in response to this notice prior to concluding our NEPA process or making a final decision on the IHA request. Summary of Request On May 16, 2023, NMFS received a request from the City of Oceanside for an IHA to take marine mammals incidental to construction activities associated with fishing pier and nonmotorized vessel improvement in Oceanside Harbor, Oceanside, CA. Following NMFS’ review of the application, the City of Oceanside submitted revised versions on July 18 and October 17, 2023. The application was deemed adequate and complete on November 2, 2023. The City of Oceanside’s request is for take of seven species of marine mammals by Level B harassment only. Neither the City of Oceanside nor NMFS expect serious injury or mortality to result from this activity and, therefore, an IHA is appropriate.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    In the Preliminary Results, we used the quarterly cost 
methodology.\9\ While preparing the verification outlines, we found 
that we did not deploy the methodology properly in the preliminarily 
margin calculation program. For these final results, we corrected the 
error in the final margin calculation program, and that correction did 
not change the preliminarily weighted-average dumping margin.\10\

Disclosure

    We intend to disclose to interested parties the corrected margin 
calculation program within five days of the publication date of this 
notice, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of 
this review.\11\ Because POSCO's weighted-average dumping margin is 
zero percent, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 
entries without regard to antidumping duties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See Antidumping Proceeding: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping 
Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with Commerce's practice, for entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by POSCO for which it did not know 
its merchandise was destined for the United States, we intend to 
instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the all-others rate if there 
is no company-specific rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved 
in the transaction.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 for all 
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results 
of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 
the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for POSCO will be zero; (2) for 
previously-investigated companies not participating in this review, the 
cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate 
published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding; 
(3) if the exporter was not covered in this review or the 
investigation, but the producer was covered, the cash deposit rate will 
be the rate established in the most recently completed segment of this 
proceeding for the producer of subject merchandise; and (4) the cash 
deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 
41.10 percent, the all-others rate established in the original less-
than-fair-value investigation.\13\ These cash deposit requirements, 
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
