initiation had no exports, sales, or 

entries during the period of review 

(POR), it must notify Commerce within 

30 days of publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. All submissions 

must be filed electronically at https://

access.trade.gov, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.303.1 Such submissions are 

subject to verification, in accordance 

with section 782(i) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act). Further, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.303(f)(1)(i), 

a copy must be served on every party on 

Commerce’s service list. 

Respondent Selection 

In the event Commerce limits the 

number of respondents for individual 

examination for administrative reviews 

initiated pursuant to requests made for 

the orders identified below, Commerce 

intends to select respondents based on 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) data for U.S. imports during the 

POR. We intend to place the CBP data 

on the record within five days of 

publication of the initiation notice and 

to make our decision regarding 

respondent selection within 35 days of 

publication of the initiation Federal 

Register notice. Comments regarding the 

CBP data and respondent selection 

should be submitted within seven days 

after the placement of the CBP data on 

the record of this review. Parties 

wishing to submit rebuttal comments 

should submit those comments within 

five days after the deadline for the 

initial comments. 

In the event Commerce decides it is 

necessary to limit individual 

examination of respondents and 

conduct respondent selection under 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act, the 

following guidelines regarding 

collapsing of companies for purposes of 

respondent selection will apply. In 

general, Commerce has found that 

determinations concerning whether 

particular companies should be 

‘‘collapsed’’ (e.g., treated as a single 

entity for purposes of calculating 

antidumping duty rates) require a 

substantial amount of detailed 

information and analysis, which often 

require follow-up questions and 

analysis. Accordingly, Commerce will 

not conduct collapsing analyses at the 

respondent selection phase of this 

review and will not collapse companies 

at the respondent selection phase unless 

there has been a determination to 

collapse certain companies in a 

previous segment of this AD proceeding 

(e.g., investigation, administrative 

review, new shipper review, or changed 

circumstances review). For any 

company subject to this review, if 

Commerce determined, or continued to 

treat, that company as collapsed with 

others, Commerce will assume that such 

companies continue to operate in the 

same manner and will collapse them for 

respondent selection purposes. 

Otherwise, Commerce will not collapse 

companies for purposes of respondent 

selection. 

Parties are requested to: (a) identify 

which companies subject to review 

previously were collapsed; and (b) 

provide a citation to the proceeding in 

which they were collapsed. Further, if 

companies are requested to complete 

the Quantity and Value (Q&V) 

Questionnaire for purposes of 

respondent selection, in general, each 

company must report volume and value 

data separately for itself. Parties should 

not include data for any other party, 

even if they believe they should be 

treated as a single entity with that other 

party. If a company was collapsed with 

another company or companies in the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding where Commerce 

considered collapsing that entity, 

complete Q&V data for that collapsed 

entity must be submitted. 

Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for 

Administrative Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a 

party that has requested a review may 

withdraw that request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. The 

regulation provides that Commerce may 

extend this time if it is reasonable to do 

so. Determinations by Commerce to 

extend the 90-day deadline will be 

made on a case-by-case basis. 

Deadline for Particular Market 

Situation Allegation 

Section 504 of the Trade Preferences 

Extension Act of 2015 amended the Act 

by adding the concept of a particular 

market situation (PMS) for purposes of 

constructed value under section 773(e) 

of the Act.2 Section 773(e) of the Act 

states that ‘‘if a particular market 

situation exists such that the cost of 

materials and fabrication or other 

processing of any kind does not 

accurately reflect the cost of production 

in the ordinary course of trade, the 

administering authority may use 

another calculation methodology under 

this subtitle or any other calculation 

methodology.’’ When an interested 

party submits a PMS allegation pursuant 

to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce 

will respond to such a submission 

consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v). 

If Commerce finds that a PMS exists 

under section 773(e) of the Act, then it 

will modify its dumping calculations 

appropriately. 

Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor 

19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a deadline 

for the submission of PMS allegations 

and supporting factual information. 

However, in order to administer section 

773(e) of the Act, Commerce must 

receive PMS allegations and supporting 

factual information with enough time to 

consider the submission. Thus, should 

an interested party wish to submit a 

PMS allegation and supporting new 

factual information pursuant to section 

773(e) of the Act, it must do so no later 

than 20 days after submission of initial 

responses to section D of the 

questionnaire. 

Separate Rates 

In proceedings involving non-market 

economy (NME) countries, Commerce 

begins with a rebuttable presumption 

that all companies within the country 

are subject to government control and, 

thus, should be assigned a single 

antidumping duty deposit rate. It is 

Commerce’s policy to assign all 

exporters of merchandise subject to an 

administrative review in an NME 

country this single rate unless an 

exporter can demonstrate that it is 

sufficiently independent so as to be 

entitled to a separate rate. 

To establish whether a firm is 

sufficiently independent from 

government control of its export 

activities to be entitled to a separate 

rate, Commerce analyzes each entity 

exporting the subject merchandise. In 

accordance with the separate rates 

criteria, Commerce assigns separate 

rates to companies in NME cases only 

if respondents can demonstrate the 

absence of both de jure and de facto 

government control over export 

activities. 

All firms listed below that wish to 

qualify for separate rate status in the 

administrative reviews involving NME 

countries must complete, as 

appropriate, either a Separate Rate 

Application or Certification, as 

described below. For these 

administrative reviews, in order to 

demonstrate separate rate eligibility, 

Commerce requires entities for whom a 

review was requested, that were 

assigned a separate rate in the most 

recent segment of this proceeding in 

which they participated, to certify that 

they continue to meet the criteria for 

obtaining a separate rate. The Separate 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
62324 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 174 / Monday, September 11, 2023 / Notices 

3Such entities include entities that have not 

participated in the proceeding, entities that were 

preliminarily granted a separate rate in any 

currently incomplete segment of the proceeding 

(e.g., an ongoing administrative review, new 

shipper review, etc.) and entities that lost their 

separate rate in the most recently completed 

segment of the proceeding in which they 

participated. 

4Only changes to the official company name, 

rather than trade names, need to be addressed via 

a Separate Rate Application. Information regarding 

new trade names may be submitted via a Separate 

Rate Certification. 

Rate Certification form will be available 

on Commerce’s website at https://

access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nmesep-rate.html on the date of publication 

of this Federal Register notice. In 

responding to the certification, please 

follow the ‘‘Instructions for Filing the 

Certification’’ in the Separate Rate 

Certification. Separate Rate 

Certifications are due to Commerce no 

later than 30 calendar days after 

publication of this Federal Register 

notice. The deadline and requirement 

for submitting a Separate Rate 

Certification applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned 

firms, and foreign sellers who purchase 

and export subject merchandise to the 

United States. 

Entities that currently do not have a 

separate rate from a completed segment 

of the proceeding 3 should timely file a 

Separate Rate Application to 

demonstrate eligibility for a separate 

rate in this proceeding. In addition, 

companies that received a separate rate 

in a completed segment of the 

proceeding that have subsequently 

made changes, including, but not 

limited to, changes to corporate 

structure, acquisitions of new 

companies or facilities, or changes to 

their official company name,4 should 

timely file a Separate Rate Application 

to demonstrate eligibility for a separate 

rate in this proceeding. The Separate 

Rate Application will be available on 

Commerce’s website at https://

access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nmesep-rate.html on the date of publication 

of this Federal Register notice. In 

responding to the Separate Rate 

Application, refer to the instructions 

contained in the application. Separate 

Rate Applications are due to Commerce 

no later than 30 calendar days after 

publication of this Federal Register 

notice. The deadline and requirement 

for submitting a Separate Rate 

Application applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned 

firms, and foreign sellers that purchase 

and export subject merchandise to the 

United States. 

Exporters and producers must file a 

timely Separate Rate Application or 

Certification if they want to be 

considered for individual examination. 

Furthermore, exporters and producers 

who submit a Separate Rate Application 

or Certification and subsequently are 

selected as mandatory respondents will 

no longer be eligible for separate rate 

status unless they respond to all parts of 

the questionnaire as mandatory 

respondents. 

Initiation of Reviews 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating 

administrative reviews of the following

8 In Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing 

Duty Administrative Reviews, 88 FR 44262, 44267 

(July 12, 2023), Commerce initiated the 2022–2023 

administrative review with respect to Hyundai Steel 

Company. Subject merchandise may have also 

entered under the name Hyundai Steel or Hyundai 

Steel Co., Ltd. 

9Stainless steel sheet and strip in coils produced 

and exported by Tung Mung Development Co Ltd 

(Tung Mung) were excluded from the antidumping 

duty order on stainless steel sheet and strip in coils 

from Taiwan, effective October 16, 2002. See Notice 

of Amended Final Determination in Accordance 

with Court Decision of the Antidumping Duty 

Investigation of Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in 

Coils from Taiwan, 69 FR 67311, 67312 (November 

17, 2004). Therefore, entries of merchandise 

produced and exported by Tung Mung are excluded 

from the antidumping duty order and this exclusion 

is not applicable to merchandise exported to the 

United States by Tung Mung in any other producer/ 

exporter combination or by third parties that 

sourced subject merchandise from the excluded 

producer/exporter combination. Accordingly, this 

initiation covers merchandise: (1) produced by a 

third party and exported by Tung Mung; (2) 

produced by Tung Mung and exported by a third 

party; or (3) exported by a third party that sourced 

subject merchandise from the excluded producer/ 

exporter combination.

Duty Absorption Reviews 

During any administrative review 

covering all or part of a period falling 

between the first and second or third 

and fourth anniversary of the 

publication of an AD order under 19 

CFR 351.211 or a determination under 

19 CFR 351.218(f)(4) to continue an 

order or suspended investigation (after 

sunset review), Commerce, if requested 

by a domestic interested party within 30 

days of the date of publication of the 

notice of initiation of the review, will 

determine whether AD duties have been 

absorbed by an exporter or producer 

subject to the review if the subject 

merchandise is sold in the United States 

through an importer that is affiliated 

with such exporter or producer. The 

request must include the name(s) of the 

exporter or producer for which the 

inquiry is requested. 

Gap Period Liquidation 

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 

‘‘gap’’ period of the order (i.e., the 

period following the expiry of 

provisional measures and before 

definitive measures were put into 

place), if such a gap period is applicable 

to the POR. 

Administrative Protective Orders and 

Letters of Appearance 

Interested parties must submit 

applications for disclosure under 

administrative protective orders in 

accordance with the procedures 

outlined in Commerce’s regulations at 

19 CFR 351.305. Those procedures 

apply to administrative reviews 

included in this notice of initiation. 

Parties wishing to participate in any of 

these administrative reviews should 

ensure that they meet the requirements 

of these procedures (e.g., the filing of 

separate letters of appearance as 

discussed at 19 CFR 351.103(d)). 

Factual Information Requirements 

Commerce’s regulations identify five 

categories of factual information in 19 

CFR 351.102(b)(21), which are 

summarized as follows: (i) evidence 

submitted in response to questionnaires; 

(ii) evidence submitted in support of 

allegations; (iii) publicly available 

information to value factors under 19 

CFR 351.408(c) or to measure the 

adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR 

351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence placed on 

the record by Commerce; and (v) 

evidence other than factual information 

described in (i)–(iv). These regulations 

require any party, when submitting 

factual information, to specify under 

which subsection of 19 CFR 

351.102(b)(21) the information is being 

submitted and, if the information is 

submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct 

factual information already on the 

record, to provide an explanation 

identifying the information already on 

the record that the factual information 

seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The 

regulations, at 19 CFR 351.301, also 

provide specific time limits for such 

factual submissions based on the type of 

factual information being submitted. 

Please review the Final Rule,10 available 

at https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/ 

FR-2013-07-17/pdf/2013-17045.pdf, 

prior to submitting factual information 

in this segment. Note that Commerce 

has temporarily modified certain of its 

requirements for serving documents 

containing business proprietary 

information, until further notice.11

Any party submitting factual 

information in an AD or CVD 

proceeding must certify to the accuracy 

and completeness of that information 

using the formats provided at the end of 

the Final Rule.12 Commerce intends to 

reject factual submissions in any 

proceeding segments if the submitting 

party does not comply with applicable 

certification requirements. 

Extension of Time Limits Regulation 

Parties may request an extension of 

time limits before a time limit 

established under Part 351 expires, or as 

otherwise specified by Commerce.13 In 

general, an extension request will be 

considered untimely if it is filed after 

the time limit established under Part 

351 expires. For submissions which are 

due from multiple parties 

simultaneously, an extension request 

will be considered untimely if it is filed 

after 10:00 a.m. on the due date. 

Examples include, but are not limited 

to: (1) case and rebuttal briefs, filed 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; (2) factual 

information to value factors under 19 

CFR 351.408(c), or to measure the 

adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR 

351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, clarification 

and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments 

concerning the selection of a surrogate 

country and surrogate values and 

rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP 

data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under 

certain circumstances, Commerce may 

elect to specify a different time limit by 

which extension requests will be

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 174 / Monday, September 11, 2023 / Notices 62337 

considered untimely for submissions 

which are due from multiple parties 

simultaneously. In such a case, 

Commerce will inform parties in the 

letter or memorandum setting forth the 

deadline (including a specified time) by 

which extension requests must be filed 

to be considered timely. This policy also 

requires that an extension request must 

be made in a separate, stand-alone 

submission, and clarifies the 

circumstances under which Commerce 

will grant untimely-filed requests for the 

extension of time limits. Please review 

the Final Rule, available at https://

ACTION: Notice; request for comments on 

proposed renewal incidental harassment 

authorization. 

SUMMARY: NMFS received a request from 

Orsted Wind Power North America LLC 

(Orsted) for the renewal of their 2022 

incidental harassment authorization 

(IHA) (hereinafter, the 2022 IHA is 

referred to as the ‘‘initial IHA’’ and the 

requested IHA is referred to as the 

‘‘Renewal IHA’’) to take marine 

mammals incidental to marine site 

characterization surveys, using highresolution geophysical (HRG) 

equipment, in coastal waters from New 

York to Massachusetts, including the 

Bureau of Ocean Energy Management 

(BOEM) Commercial Lease of 

Submerged Lands for Renewable Energy 

Development on the Outer Continental 

Shelf (OCS) Lease Areas OCS–A 0486, 

0487, 0500 and along potential export 

cable routes (ECR). The activities are 

identical to those covered under the 

initial IHA, which expires on October 5, 

2023. Pursuant to the Marine Mammal 

Protection Act (MMPA), prior to issuing 

the initial IHA, NMFS requested 

comments on both the proposed IHA 

and the potential for renewing the 

initial authorization if certain 

requirements were satisfied. The 

renewal requirements have been 

satisfied, and NMFS is now providing 

an additional 15-day comment period to 

allow for any additional comments on 

the proposed renewal not previously 

provided during the initial 30-day 

comment period. If issued, the renewal 

IHA would be effective from the date of 

issuance. 

DATES: Comments and information must 

be received no later than September 26, 

2023. 

ADDRESSES: Comments should be 

addressed to Jolie Harrison, Chief, 

Permits and Conservation Division, 

Office of Protected Resources, National 

Marine Fisheries Service and should be 

submitted via email to ITP.Lock@

noaa.gov. 

Instructions: NMFS is not responsible 

for comments sent by any other method, 

to any other address or individual, or 

received after the end of the comment 

period. Comments, including all 

attachments, must not exceed a 25- 

megabyte file size. All comments 

received are a part of the public record 

and will generally be posted online at 

www.fisheries.noaa.gov/permit/ 

incidental-take-authorizations-undermarine-mammal-protection-act without 

change. All personal identifying 

information (e.g., name, address) 

voluntarily submitted by the commenter 

may be publicly accessible. Do not 

submit confidential business 

information or otherwise sensitive or 

protected information. Electronic copies 

of the application and supporting 

documents, as well as a list of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Marine Mammal Protection Act 

(MMPA) prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of marine 

mammals, with certain exceptions. 

Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the 

MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) direct 

the Secretary of Commerce (as delegated 

to NMFS) to allow, upon request, the 

incidental, but not intentional, taking of 

small numbers of marine mammals by 

U.S. citizens who engage in a specified 

activity (other than commercial fishing) 

within a specified geographical region if 

certain findings are made and either 

regulations are promulgated or, if the 

taking is limited to harassment, an 

incidental harassment authorization is 

issued. 

Authorization for incidental takings 

shall be granted if NMFS finds that the 

taking will have a negligible impact on 

the species or stock(s) and will not have 

an unmitigable adverse impact on the 

availability of the species or stock(s) for 

taking for subsistence uses (where 

relevant). NMFS must prescribe the 

permissible methods of taking and other 

‘‘means of effecting the least practicable 

adverse impact’’ on the affected species 

or stocks and their habitat, paying 

particular attention to rookeries, mating 

grounds, and areas of similar 

significance, and on the availability of 

such species or stocks for taking for 

certain subsistence uses (referred to here 

as ‘‘mitigation measures’’). NMFS must 

also prescribe requirements pertaining 

to monitoring and reporting of such 

takings. The definitions of key terms 

such as ‘‘take,’’ ‘‘harassment,’’ and 

‘‘negligible impact’’ can be found in the 

MMPA and NMFS implementing 

regulations (see 16 U.S.C. 1362; 50 CFR 

216.3; 50 CFR 216.103). 

NMFS’ regulations implementing the 

MMPA at 50 CFR 216.107(e) indicate 

that IHAs may be renewed for 

additional periods of time not to exceed 

one year for each reauthorization. In the 

notice of proposed IHA for the initial 

IHA, NMFS described the circumstances 

under which we would consider issuing 

a renewal for this activity, and 

requested public comment on a 

potential renewal under those 

circumstances. Specifically, on a caseby-case basis, NMFS may issue a 1-time 

1-year renewal of an IHA following 

notice to the public providing an 

additional 15 days for public comments 

when (1) up to another year of identical, 

or nearly identical, activities as 

described in the Detailed Description of 

Specified Activities section of the initial 

IHA issuance notice is planned, or (2) 

the activities as described in the 

Description of the Specified Activities 

and Anticipated Impacts section of the
