Department of Commerce January 8, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Atlantic Mackerel, Squid, and Butterfish Fisheries; Control Date for Loligo
Document Number: 2010-143
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2010-01-08
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
NMFS announces a future proposed rulemaking for the Atlantic mackerel, squid, and butterfish (MSB) fisheries. This rulemaking could institute catch share programs in the Loligo and Illex fisheries to manage future access in these fisheries in order to control capacity. NMFS also reaffirms the most recent control date of May 20, 2003, for the Loligo and Illex fisheries, which may be used for establishing eligibility criteria for determining levels of future access to the squid fisheries. This announcement alerts interested parties of potential eligibility criteria for future access so as to discourage speculative entry into the squid fisheries while the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council (Council) considers if and how access to the squid fisheries should be controlled with catch share programs.

Document Number: 2010-138
Type: Rule
Date: 2010-01-08
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
This document contains a correction to the final regulations that were published in the Federal Register on December 10, 2009, and are effective January 11, 2010. This change ensures that the process is preserved for closing the Hawaii-based shallow-set longline fishery as a result of the fishery reaching interaction limits for sea turtles.
Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from India: Notice of Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, and Intent to Rescind in Part
Document Number: 2010-128
Type: Notice
Date: 2010-01-08
Agency: Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration
In response to requests from petitioners,\1\ the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping order on certain hot-rolled carbon steel flat products from India (``Indian Hot-Rolled'') manufactured by Essar Steel Limited (``Essar''), Ispat Industries Limited (``Ispat''), JSW Steel Limited (``JSW''), and Tata Steel Limited (``Tata''). The period of review (``POR'') covers December 1, 2007, through November 30, 2008. We preliminarily determine to calculate an antidumping duty margin based upon the application of adverse facts available (``AFA'') with respect to Essar's sales. We also preliminarily determine that Ispat, JSW and Tata had no entries of subject merchandise subject to review under this antidumping order during the POR. If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise during the POR.
