In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(b), an interested party as 

defined by section 771(9) of the Act may 

request in writing that the Secretary 

conduct an administrative review. For 

both antidumping and countervailing 

duty reviews, the interested party must 

specify the individual producers or 

exporters covered by an antidumping 

finding or an antidumping or 

countervailing duty order or suspension 

agreement for which it is requesting a 

review. In addition, a domestic 

interested party or an interested party 

described in section 771(9)(B) of the Act 

must state why it desires the Secretary 

to review those particular producers or 

exporters.2 If the interested party 

intends for the Secretary to review sales 

of merchandise by an exporter (or a 

producer if that producer also exports 

merchandise from other suppliers) 

which were produced in more than one 

country of origin and each country of 

origin is subject to a separate order, then 

the interested party must state 

specifically, on an order-by-order basis, 


PWALKER on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 189 / Thursday, October 1, 2009 / Notices 50773 

which exporter(s) the request is 

intended to cover. 

Please note that, for any party the 

Department was unable to locate in 

prior segments, the Department will not 

accept a request for an administrative 

review of that party absent new 

information as to the party’s location. 

Moreover, if the interested party who 

files a request for review is unable to 

locate the producer or exporter for 

which it requested the review, the 

interested party must provide an 

explanation of the attempts it made to 

locate the producer or exporter at the 

same time it files its request for review, 

in order for the Secretary to determine 

if the interested party’s attempts were 

reasonable, pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.303(f)(3)(ii). 

As explained in Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department 

has clarified its practice with respect to 

the collection of final antidumping 

duties on imports of merchandise where 

intermediate firms are involved. The 

public should be aware of this 

clarification in determining whether to 

request an administrative review of 

merchandise subject to antidumping 

findings and orders. See also the Import 

Administration Web site at http:// 

ia.ita.doc.gov. 

Six copies of the request should be 

submitted to the Assistant Secretary for 

Import Administration, International 

Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S. 

Department of Commerce, 14th Street & 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC 20230. The Department also asks 

parties to serve a copy of their requests 

to the Office of Antidumping/ 

Countervailing Operations, Attention: 

Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of the main 

Commerce Building. Further, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.303(f)(l)(i), 

a copy of each request must be served 

on every party on the Department’s 

service list. 

The Department will publish in the 

Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation 

of Administrative Review of 

Antidumping or Countervailing Duty 

Order, Finding, or Suspended 

Investigation’’ for requests received by 

the last day of October 2009. If the 

Department does not receive, by the last 

day of October 2009, a request for 

review of entries covered by an order, 

finding, or suspended investigation 

listed in this notice and for the period 

identified above, the Department will 

instruct the CBP to assess antidumping 

or countervailing duties on those entries 

at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or 

bond for) estimated antidumping or 

countervailing duties required on those 

entries at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption and to continue to collect 

the cash deposit previously ordered. 

For the first administrative review of 

any order, there will be no assessment 

of antidumping or countervailing duties 

on entries of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption during the relevant 

provisional-measures ‘‘gap’’ period, of 

the order, if such a gap period is 

applicable to the period of review. 

This notice is not required by statute 

but is published as a service to the 

international trading community.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration 

[Docket No.: 0909281323–91323–01] 

Exception to Final Guidelines for the 

Coastal and Estuarine Land 

Conservation Program 

AGENCY: National Ocean Service (NOS), 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration (NOAA), Department of 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice; exception to final 

guidelines. 

SUMMARY: The National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration, National 

Ocean Service publishes this notice of 

exception to the Final Guidelines for the 

Coastal and Estuarine Land 

Conservation Program (CELCP). For 

those grants issued in fiscal year 2006 

that are due to expire on September 30, 

2009, NOAA may extend the financial 

assistance award period for up to 6 

additional months, providing for a 

potential maximum award duration of 

three years and six months. 

DATES: The provisions in this notice are 

implemented as of September 30, 2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

further information, contact: Elaine 

Vaudreuil, 301–713–3155 ext. 103, 

Elaine.Vaudreuil@noaa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Coastal and Estuarine Land 

Conservation Program was established 

pursuant to Public Law 107–77 for the 

purpose of protecting important coastal 

and estuarine areas that have significant 

conservation, recreation, ecological, 

historical, or aesthetic values, or that are 

threatened by conversion from their 

natural or recreational state to other 

uses. In accordance with Public Law 

107–77, CELCP published in the 

Federal Register on June 17, 2003 (68 

FR 35860) program guidelines 

delineating the criteria for grant awards. 

The Final Guidelines for CELCP outline 

a planning process for states to identify 

the conservation needs and priorities 

within each state; provide the 

information necessary for eligible 

coastal states to develop land 

conservation plans and nominate 

projects to a national competitive 

selection process; and delineate the 

criteria for grant awards. 

In FY 2006, the conference report 

accompanying the Science, State, 

Justice, Commerce, and Related 

Agencies Appropriations Act of 2006 

(Pub. L. 109–108) directed funds for 

specific land conservation projects 

under the CELCP. Consistent with the 

criteria for grants awards in the Final 

Guidelines, the standard financial 

assistance award period for these 

awards is 18 months, which can be 

extended an additional 18 months if 

circumstances warrant, but may not 

exceed 3 years. 

Several FY 2006 awards, whose award 

period is set to expire on September 30, 

2009, have experienced unforeseen 

circumstances late in the process that 

precluded their completion within the 

3-year timeframe provided in the CELCP 

Guidelines. In order to ensure that 

projects can be completed and funds 

expended for their intended purpose, 

NOAA is extending the maximum 

potential award duration for those FY 

2006 grants in an open status on 

September 29, 2009, from three years to 

three years and six months, ending no 

later than March 31, 2010. 

Award recipients who wish to avail 

themselves of the extension to the 

award period should contact their 

Program Officer by September 30, 2009 

to inform them of their intent to seek an 

extension. 

This extension applies to only FY 

2006 CELCP awards in an open status 

on September 29, 2009. This notice does 

not modify any provision in the Final 

Guidelines for the Coastal and Estuarine 

Land Conservation Program published 

on June 17, 2003. 

Classification 

Executive Order 12866 

This notice has been determined to be 

not significant for purposes of Executive 

Order 12866.
