Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic; Reef Fish Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico; Exempted Fishing Permit
NMFS announces the receipt of an application for an exempted fishing permit (EFP) from the Alabama Charter Fishing Association cooperative (ACFAC). The ACFAC proposes to evaluate the efficacy of an allocation-based management system, using a limited number of charter vessels in a 2-year pilot study. This study, to be conducted in the exclusive economic zone of the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf), is intended to assess whether such a system can better achieve conservation goals established in the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico; evaluate the effectiveness of a more timely electronic data reporting system; and evaluate the potential social and economic benefits of an alternative management strategy for the charter vessel segment of the recreational fishing sector within the Gulf reef fish fishery.
Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod From Ukraine: Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order
As a result of the determination by the International Trade Commission (the ``ITC'') that revocation of the antidumping duty (``AD'') order on carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod (``wire rod'') from Ukraine would not be likely to lead to the continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States, the Department of Commerce (the ``Department'') is revoking the AD order.
Certain Lined Paper Products From India: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty Changed Circumstances Review
In response to a request from Navneet Education Limited (Navneet Education), a producer/exporter of certain lined paper products (CLPP) from India, and pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.216, the Department is initiating a changed circumstances review (CCR) of the countervailing duty (CVD) order on CLPP from India with regard to Navneet Education. Based on the information received, we further preliminarily determine that Navneet Education is the successor-in- interest to Navneet Publications (India) Ltd. (Navneet) and should be accorded the same treatment previously given to Navneet with respect to the CVD order on CLPP from India. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.
Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod From Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Moldova, and Trinidad and Tobago: Continuation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders
The Department of Commerce (the ``Department'') determined that revocation of the antidumping duty (``AD'') orders on carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod (``wire rod'') from Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Moldova, and Trinidad and Tobago would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping, and that revocation of the countervailing duty (``CVD'') order on wire rod from Brazil would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. The U.S. International Trade Commission (the ``USITC'') also determined that revocation of these AD and CVD orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States. The Department is publishing this notice of the continuation of these AD and CVD orders.
