American Spring Wire Corporation, 

Kankakee, Illinois meet the criteria as 

Suppliers for secondary worker 

certification. 

Criterion I has been met because a 

significant number or proportion of 

workers in the workers’ firm were 

totally or partially separated, or were 

threatened with separation. 

Criterion II has been met because 

workers of subject firm produced and 

sold spring wire for a firm that 

employed a worker group eligible to 

apply for TAA and the spring wire was 

related to the article that was the basis 

for the TAA certification. 

Criterion III has been met because the 

loss of business by subject firm with the 

aforementioned firm, with respect to 

spring wire, contributed importantly to 

worker separations, or threat of 

separations, at the Kankakee, Illinois 

facility. 

Conclusion 

After careful review of the additional 

facts obtained on reconsideration, I 

determine that workers and former 

workers of subject firm, who are 

engaged in employment related to the 

supply of spring wire, meet the worker 

group certification criteria under 

Section 222(c) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 

2272(c). In accordance with Section 223 

of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2273, I make the 

following certification: 

All workers of American Spring Wire 

Corporation, Kankakee, Illinois, who became 

totally or partially separated from 

employment on or after December 17, 2008, 

through two years from the date of this 

revised certification, and all workers in the 

group threatened with total or partial 

separation from employment on date of 

certification through two years from the date 

of certification, are eligible to apply for 

adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of 

Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. 

Signed in Washington, DC, this 6th day of 

April, 2011.

[Docket No. 2011–3] 

Notice of Public Meeting: Technical 

Aspects of Mandatory Deposit of 

Published Electronic Works Available 

Only Online 

AGENCY: U.S. Copyright Office, Library 

of Congress. 

ACTION: Notice of public meeting. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Copyright Office of 

the Library of Congress will host a 

public meeting on May 24, 2011, with 

members of the publishing community 

to discuss lessons learned from the 

Office’s receipt of electronic deposits in 

fulfillment of the mandatory deposit 

requirements of the copyright law. The 

objective is to identify file submission, 

packaging, and formatting standards 

that can effectively and efficiently be 

adapted to the workflow requirements 

for both the publishing community and 

the Library of Congress. 

DATES: The public meeting will take 

place on Tuesday, May 24, 2011, from 

9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Responses by parties 

interested in participating are due by 5 

p.m. May 11, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: The public meeting will 

take place in the Copyright Hearing 

Room of the Madison Building of the 

Library of Congress, LM–408, 101 

Independence Ave., SE., 20059. With 

respect to the notices of participation, 

the Copyright Office strongly prefers 

that responses be submitted 

electronically. Notices of participation 

with the required information should be 

sent to cad@loc.gov.

Acquisitions Division. Telephone (202) 

707–7125; Telefax (202) 707–4435. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

January 25, 2010, the Copyright Office 

adopted an interim regulation governing 

the mandatory deposit of published 

electronic works available only on-line. 

75 FR 3863 (January 25, 2010). This 

regulation permits the Copyright Office 

to acquire, on behalf of the Library of 

Congress, electronic works published 

only online and available exclusively in 

electronic formats. Prior to this 

regulation, all online-only works were 

exempt from the mandatory deposit 

provisions of the copyright law. 

Under the interim regulation, certain 

works available only online, i.e., 

electronic serials, are now subject to the 

mandatory deposit requirement but only 

to the extent the Copyright Office issues 

a demand notice for the works. Once the 

Copyright Office and the Library of 

Congress have gained experience with 

ingesting digital works, additional 

categories of electronic works published 

only online will be added to the list. 

On September 1, 2010, the Copyright 

Office, on behalf of the Library of 

Congress, issued its first mandatory 

deposit notice for works published only 

online. To date, 30 publishers have 

received demand notices for a total of 85 

online-only titles. These 30 publishers 

represent a cross section of the 

community, including large commercial 

publishers, small commercial 

publishers, academic institutions, and 

open access as well as subscription 

based titles. 

The online-only deposit amendment 

was issued as an ‘‘interim’’ regulation 

because the Copyright Office foresaw 

that ‘‘the experience of issuing and 

responding to demands for online–only 

works will raise additional issues that 

should be considered before the 

regulation becomes final, e.g., the 

technical details of how an online–only 

work should be transmitted to the 

Copyright Office.’’ 75 FR 3864 (January 

25, 2010). The experience of the 

Copyright Office thus far is that every 

submission has been unique. Although 

suggested submission instructions were 

provided, no two publishers have 

transmitted, packaged or formatted their 

files in the same manner. Needless to 

say this has created tremendous 

technical challenges not only for the 

Library of Congress but also for the 

publishers responding to the demand 

notices. 

In response to these multiple 

transmission, packaging, and formatting 

issues, the Copyright Office will be 

hosting a public working session to 

discuss the packaging and submission 

processes to fulfill a mandatory deposit 

demand for an electronic work. The goal 

is to identify a maximum of five 

possible packaging standards, 

transmission protocols, and file 

structures that will work for the 

publishing community as well as for the 

Office and the Library. The participants 

should represent all segments of the 

serial publishing community, such as 

publishers, aggregators, abstract and 

indexing services, journal hosting 

services, software developers, file 

conversion services, file archiving 

services, and organizations focusing on 

library and electronic information 

standards. We encourage these groups to 

send representatives to the meeting to 

foster a well-informed discussion of the 

issues. 

Limits on participation: Due to space 

constraints, we regret that we cannot 

accommodate more than two 

representatives per organization. We ask 

that one of these representatives be 

well-versed in your organization’s 

technical and workflow requirements 

related to content production, file 

formats, file naming conventions, 

metadata, file transmission, and file 

packaging guidelines. 

Notice of participation: A notice to 

participate in the meeting must be filed 

no later than 5 p.m. on May 11, 2011. 

Each notice should be submitted by emstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

MILLENNIUM CHALLENGE 

CORPORATION 

[MCC FR 11–04] 

Notice of Entering Into a Compact With 

the Republic of Malawi 

AGENCY: Millennium Challenge 

Corporation. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with Section 

610(b)(2) of the Millennium Challenge 

Act of 2003 (Pub. L. 108–199, Division 

D), the Millennium Challenge 

Corporation (MCC) is publishing a 

summary and the complete text of the 

Millennium Challenge Compact 

between the United States of America, 

acting through the Millennium 

Challenge Corporation, and the 

Republic of Malawi. Representatives of 

the United States Government and the 

Republic of Malawi executed the 

Compact documents on April 7, 2011. 

Dated: April 8, 2011. 

Henry Pitney, 

Deputy General Counsel, Millennium 

Challenge Corporation. 

Summary of Millennium Challenge 

Compact With the Republic of Malawi 

The five-year Millennium Challenge 

Compact with the Republic of Malawi 

will provide up to $350.7 million to 

reduce poverty through economic 

growth (the ‘‘Compact’’). The Compact 

focuses on revitalization of the Malawi 

power sector, and is intended to: 

(i) Increase investment and employment 

income by raising the profitability and 

productivity of enterprises; (ii) expand 

access to electricity for the Malawian 

people and businesses; and (iii) improve 

delivery of social services. 

1. Project Overview and Activity 

Descriptions 

To advance the Compact goal of 

reducing poverty through economic 

growth, the Compact will fund a Power 

Sector Revitalization Project (the 

‘‘Project’’) that aims to improve the 

availability, reliability, and quality of 

the power supply by: (i) Increasing the 

throughput capacity and stability of the 

national electricity grid; (ii) increase 

efficiency of hydropower generation; 

and (iii) create an enabling environment 

for future expansion by strengthening 

sector institutions and enhancing 

regulation and governance of the sector. 

The Project consists of two activities (i) 

the Infrastructure Development Activity 

and (ii) the Power Sector Reform 

Activity (the ‘‘Activities’’). 

A. Infrastructure Development Activity 

($283 Million) 

The Infrastructure Development 

Activity focuses on the rehabilitation, 

upgrade and modernization of those 

generation, transmission and 

distribution assets of the Electricity 

Supply Corporation of Malawi 

(‘‘ESCOM’’) in most urgent need of 

repair, in order to improve the 

capability of the transmission system 

and increase the efficiency and 

sustainability of hydropower generation. 

Because maintaining the current 

generation assets and expanding 

generation capacity are necessary to 

ensure realization of the full benefits of 

the Infrastructure Development Activity, 

the Government of Malawi (‘‘GOM’’) is 

committing to maintain current 

generation assets, and to invest in new 

generation by completing the 

construction of the 64 MW Kapichira II 

hydropower plant during the term of the 

Compact. By the end of the Compact 

term, MCC expects that the 

Infrastructure Development Activity 

will result in increases in generation 

capacity (from 286 MW to 356 MW), 

network throughput (from 260 MW to 

410 MW) and distribution capability 

(from 868 megavolt amperes (MVA) to 

1,118 MVA), as well as a reduction of 

technical losses of the power system 

(from 20–25% to 18%). 

The Infrastructure Development 

Activity consists of the following four 

sub-activities: 

(a) Nkula A Rehabilitation SubActivity. This sub-activity will provide 

funding to rehabilitate and modernize 

Malawi’s oldest major hydropower plant 

Nkula A—at the Nkula Falls 

Hydroelectric plant. The objective of 

this proposed investment is to improve 

the availability of power in Malawi by 

reducing outages caused by the 

condition of assets, and maximizing the 

power output of generators. The 

rehabilitation is necessary to assist 

ESCOM avoid the good probability that 

at least a portion, if not all, of the plant 

could fail by the end of the Compact 

without MCC’s investment. Such a loss 

in generation output would have a 

significant adverse affect on the Malawi 

economy, and severely compromise the 

potential utilization and returns on 

MCC’s investment in the transmission 

and distribution upgrade and 

rehabilitation. 

(b) Transmission Network Upgrade 

Sub-Activity. This sub-activity will 

upgrade the backbone of the 

transmission network in order to: 

(i) Improve the quality and reliability of 

supply in the northern, central and 

southern regions of the country; (ii) 

increase the capacity to move power 

from the south, where 98 percent of 

Malawi’s power is generated, to the 

central and northern regions; (iii) reduce 

technical losses on transmission lines; 

and (iv) provide a secure transmission 

link between the southern and central 

regions. 

(c) Transmission and Distribution 

Upgrade, Expansion, and Rehabilitation 

Sub-Activity. This sub-activity includes 

investments in the southern, central, 

and northern power systems of the 

Malawi power network in order to: (i) 

Upgrade existing network connections 

(33-kilovolt (kV), 11kV); (ii) extend 

existing substations; (iii) upgrade 

transformers in existing substations; (iv) 

develop new substations; (v) install and/ 

or repair improved protection systems; 

(vi) provide new network extensions 

and connections; and (vii) install a new 

system control and data acquisition 

system. 

(d) Environment and Natural 

Resource Management (ENRM) SubActivity. The objective of the ENRM 

sub-activity is to help the GOM and 

other relevant stakeholders address the 

growing problems of aquatic weed 

infestation and excessive sedimentation 

in the Shire River, which cause costly 

disruptions to downstream power plant 

operations. The ENRM sub-activity 

intends to address these issues by: 

(i) Mitigating the impact of the weeds 

and sedimentation by providing 

dredgers and weed-harvesting 

equipment for use at existing 

hydropower plants and the Liwonde 

Barrage, and expanding use of upstream 

biological control measures; and (ii) 

developing and implementing an 

Environmental and Natural Resource 

Management Action Plan (ENRMAP) 

that sets the course for an improved 

understanding and action on 

environmental, social (including
