Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 165 / Monday, August 26, 2024 / Notices
Federal Register. Because we
preliminarily determined that critical
circumstances existed with respect to
Shandong Changyu, all other producers
and/or exporters, and the nonresponsive companies, we instructed
CBP to suspend such entries on or after
March 5, 2024, which is 90 days prior
to the date of the publication of the
Preliminary Determination in the
Federal Register.
Pursuant to section 705(c)(1)(B)(ii) of
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.210(d) where
appropriate, Commerce will instruct
CBP to require a cash deposit equal to
the estimated individual countervailable
subsidy rate or the estimated all-others
rate, as indicated in the chart above,
effective on the date of publication of
this final determination.
If the U.S. International Trade
Commission (ITC) issues a final
affirmative injury determination, we
will issue a countervailing duty order,
and require a cash deposit of estimated
countervailing duties for such entries of
subject merchandise in the amounts
indicated above, in accordance with
section 706(a) of the Act. If the ITC
determines that material injury, or
threat of material injury, does not exist,
this proceeding will be terminated, and
all estimated duties deposited or
securities posted as a result of the
suspension of liquidation will be
refunded or cancelled.

ITC Notification
In accordance with section 705(d) of
the Act, Commerce will notify the ITC
of its final affirmative determination
that countervailable subsidies are being
provided to producers and exporters of
wine bottles from China. As
Commerce’s final determination is
affirmative, in accordance with section
705(b) of the Act, the ITC will
determine, within 45 days, whether the
domestic industry in the United States
is materially injured, or threatened with
material injury, by reason of imports of
wine bottles from China. In addition, we
are making available to the ITC all nonprivileged and non-proprietary
information in our files, provided the
ITC confirms that it will not disclose
such information, either publicly or
under administrative protective order
(APO), without the written consent of
the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement
and Compliance.
Administrative Protective Order
In the event that the ITC issues a final
negative injury determination, this
notice will serve as the only reminder
to parties subject to the APO of their
responsibility concerning the
destruction of proprietary information

Scope of the Investigation
The merchandise covered by the
investigation is certain narrow neck glass
bottles, with a nominal capacity of 740
milliliters (25.02 ounces) to 760 milliliters
(25.70 ounces); a nominal total height
between 24.8 centimeters (9.75 inches) to
35.6 centimeters (14 inches); a nominal base
diameter between 4.6 centimeters (1.8
inches) to 11.4 centimeters (4.5 inches); and
a mouth with an outer diameter of between
25 millimeters (.98 inches) to 37.9
millimeters (1.5 inches); frequently referred
to as a ‘‘wine bottle.’’ In scope merchandise
may include but is not limited to the
following shapes: Bordeaux (also known as
‘‘Claret’’), Burgundy, Hock, Champagne,
Sparkling, Port, Provence, or Alsace (also
known as ‘‘Germanic’’). In scope glass bottles
generally have an approximately round base
and have shapes including but not limited to,
straight-sided, a tapered slope from shoulder
(i.e., the sloping part of the bottle between
the neck and the body) to base, or a long neck
with sloping shoulders to a wider base. The
scope includes glass bottles, whether or not
clear, whether or not colored, with or
without a punt (i.e., an indentation on the
underside of the bottle), and with or without
design or functional enhancements
(including, but not limited to, embossing,
labeling, or etching). In scope merchandise is
made of non-‘‘free blown’’ glass, i.e., in scope
merchandise is produced with the use of a
mold and is distinguished by mold seams,
joint marks, or parting lines. In scope
merchandise is unfilled and may be imported
with or without a closure, including a cork,
stelvin (screw cap), crown cap, or wire cage
and cork closure.
Excluded from the scope of the
investigation are: (1) glass containers made of
borosilicate glass, meeting United States
Pharmacopeia requirements for Type 1

or otherwise compatible with a type of
closure, including but not limited to a cork,

Background
NOAA has long met its mission
through collaboration and partnerships
with the broader enterprise. In order to
respond to an ever-growing supply and
demand for environmental information,
NOAA recognizes the need to
increasingly harness the opportunities
of a rapidly growing commercial sector
to complement and potentially increase
its current observational capabilities, as
environmental data sources from the
private sector are expanding.

Commercial Data Buys, a framework
document for NOAA programs and
offices that describes considerations for
NOAA’s engagements with the
commercial sector on commercial data
buy opportunities from all sources that
contribute to environmental
intelligence. This guidance is essential
to ensure data quality and technical
requirements are met, mission and
supply chain risks are mitigated, and
current data sharing commitments with
national partners, international partners,
and downstream private sector entities
are honored. Ensuring a consistent
approach across NOAA in working with
commercial data providers is also
important to maintain the high fidelity
of NOAA services and to clearly
communicate NOAA’s plans to
industry.
Discussion Points To Inform the NOAA
Commercial Data Buys Guidance
NOAA seeks response to this
guidance as feedback, with discussion
on the following points,* to the extent
feasible:
1. What does this guidance enable for
you as a provider of commercial data or
a user of commercial data? What
opportunities does it introduce?
2. What challenges would this
guidance introduce for you and why?
3. What do you feel NOAA is not
considering?
* Note: Only comments in response to
the above questions will be considered.
NOAA is not soliciting comments or
feedback on items of an editorial nature
or NOAA processes.
Please note that this is an RFI only. In
accordance with the implementing
regulations of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (PRA), specifically 5 CFR
1320.3(h)(4), this general solicitation is
exempt from the PRA. Facts or opinions

solicitations of comments from the
public, published in the Federal
Register or other publications,

condition of the agency’s full
consideration, are not generally
considered information collections and
therefore not subject to the PRA.
