IV. Selection Criteria 

The Rural Development State Offices 

will utilize the project selection criteria 

for applicants in accordance with 

§ 1944.679. 

In addition to the criteria established 

in 7 CFR part 1944.679 and in an effort 

to implement USDA’s nationwide 

initiative to promote renewable energy 

and energy conservation, Rural 

Development (RD) has adopted 

incentives for energy generation and 

energy conservation. Participation in 

these nationwide initiatives is 

voluntary, but is strongly encouraged. 

Energy Generation. Applicants will be 

awarded points if the proposal includes 

the installation of energy generation 

systems to be funded by a third party. 

The proposal must include an overview 

of the energy generation system being 

proposed. Evidence that an energy 

generation system has been funded by a 

third party and that it has a quantifiable 

positive impact on energy consumption 

will be required. (5 points) 

Energy Conservation. Applicants will 

be awarded points to construct (or 

substantially rehabilitate) housing that 

earns the ENERGY STAR label for new 

residential construction. Units earning 

the ENERGY STAR label must be 

independently verified to meet 

guidelines for energy efficiency as set by 

the U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency. All procedures used in 

verifying a unit for the ENERGY STAR 

label must comply with National Home 

Energy Ratings System (HERS) 

guidelines. ENERGY STAR guidelines 

for residential construction apply to 

homes that are three stories or less and 

single or low-rise multi-family 

residential buildings. 

The Applicant will include in the 

narrative an explanation of how they 

plan to incorporate ENERGY STAR. 

Construction plans pertaining to energy 

efficiency must be developed with, 

reviewed, and accepted by a HERS 

certified rater, the contractor, and the 

owner. Progress inspections must be 

made at appropriate times by a HERS 

certified rater to ensure that the housing 

is being constructed or rehabilitated 

according to ENERGY STAR 

specifications. In order to receive final 

payment, applicants will be required to 

submit the appropriate rating reports 

from the HERS rater to RD as evidence 

that the housing has been constructed to 

meet the standards of ENERGY STAR. 

In the event that housing does not meet 

ENERGY STAR guidelines for new 

residential construction, the Agency 

shall, at its discretion, deduct 5 points 

from future funding proposals. For 

further information about ENERGY 

STAR, see http://www.energystar.gov or 

call the following toll-free numbers: 

(888) 782–7939 or (888) 588–9920 

(TTY). (5 points) 

In the event more than one 

preapplication receives the same 

amount of points, those preapplications 

will then be ranked based on the actual 

percentage figure used for determining 

the points. Further, in the event that 

preapplications are still tied, then those 

pre-applications still tied will be ranked 

based on the percentage for HPG fund 

use (low to high). Further, for 

applications where assistance to rental 

properties or cooperatives is proposed, 

those still tied will be further ranked 

based on the number of years the units 

are available for occupancy under the 

program (a minimum of 5 years is 

required). 

For this part, ranking will be based 

from most to least number of years. 

Finally, if there is still a tie, then a 

lottery system will be used.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 29, 2006, the U.S. 

Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Department’’) published a notice of 

initiation of the administrative review of 

the antidumping duty order on 

corrosion–resistant carbon steel flat 

products from Korea, covering the 

period August 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006. 

See Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews, 71 FR 57465 (September 29, 

2006). The preliminary results of this 

review are currently due no later than 

May 3, 2007. 

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary 

Results 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), 

requires the Department to make a 

preliminary determination within 245 

days after the last day of the anniversary 

month of an order or finding for which 

a review is requested. Section 


cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 75 / Thursday, April 19, 2007 / Notices 19689 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act further states that 

if it is not practicable to complete the 

review within the time period specified, 

the administering authority may extend 

the 245-day period to issue its 

preliminary results by up to 120 days. 

We determine that completion of the 

preliminary results of this review within 

the 245-day period is not practicable for 

the following reasons. This review 

covers three companies, and to conduct 

the sales and cost analyses for each 

company requires the Department to 

gather, analyze and verify a significant 

amount of information pertaining to 

each company’s sales practices, 

manufacturing costs and corporate 

relationships. Given the number and 

complexity of issues in this case, and in 

accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 

the Act, we are extending the time 

period for issuing the preliminary 

results of review by 120 days. Therefore, 

the preliminary results are now due no 

later than August 31, 2007. The final 

results continue to be due 120 days after 

publication of the preliminary results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 21, 2007, the Department 

published the Final Results and 

corresponding issues and decision 

memorandum. See Memorandum to 

David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary 

for Import Administration, from 

Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant

titled Issues and Decision Memorandum 

for the Final Results in the First 

Administrative Review of Floor–

standing, Metal–top Ironing Tables and 

Certain Parts Thereof from the People’s 

Republic of China (March 12, 2007).

Scope of Order 

For purposes of this review, the 

product covered consists of floor–

standing, metal–top ironing tables, 

assembled or unassembled, complete or 

incomplete, and certain parts thereof. 

The subject tables are designed and 

used principally for the hand ironing or 

pressing of garments or other articles of 

fabric. The subject tables have full–

height leg assemblies that support the 

ironing surface at an appropriate (often 

adjustable) height above the floor. The 

subject tables are produced in a variety 

of leg finishes, such as painted, plated, 

or matte, and they are available with 

various features, including iron rests, 

linen racks, and others. The subject 

ironing tables may be sold with or 

without a pad and/or cover. All types 

and configurations of floor–standing, 

metal–top ironing tables are covered by 

this review. 

Furthermore, this scope specifically 

covers imports of ironing tables, 

assembled or unassembled, complete or 

incomplete, and certain parts thereof. 

For purposes of this review, the term 

‘‘unassembled’’ ironing table means a 

product requiring the attachment of the 

leg assembly to the top or the 

attachment of an included feature such 

as an iron rest or linen rack. The term 

‘‘complete’’ ironing table means product 

sold as a ready–to-use ensemble 

consisting of the metal–top table and a 

pad and cover, with or without 

additional features, e.g. iron rest or 

linen rack. The term ‘‘incomplete’’

ironing table means product shipped or 

sold as a ‘‘bare board’’ – i.e., a metal–

top table only, without the pad and 

cover – with or without additional 

features, e.g. iron rest or linen rack. The 

major parts or components of ironing 

tables that are intended to be covered by 

this order under the term ‘‘certain parts 

thereof’’ consist of the metal top 

component (with or without assembled 

supports and slides) and/or the leg 

components, whether or not attached 

together as a leg assembly. The scope 

covers separately shipped metal top 

components and leg components, 

without regard to whether the respective 

quantities would yield an exact quantity 

of assembled ironing tables. 

Ironing tables without legs (such as 

models that mount on walls or over 

doors) are not floor–standing and are 

specifically excluded. Additionally, 

tabletop or countertop models with 

short legs that do not exceed 12 inches 

in length (and which may or may not 

collapse or retract) are specifically 

excluded. 

The subject ironing tables were 

previously classified under Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS) subheading 9403.20.0010. 

Effective July 1, 2003, the subject 

ironing tables are classified under new 

HTSUS subheading 9403.20.0011. The 

subject metal top and leg components 

are classified under HTSUS subheading 

9403.90.8040. Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and for Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) purposes, the 

Department’s written description of the 

scope remains dispositive. 

Ministerial Errors 

A ministerial error is defined in 

section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act), and further 

clarified in 19 CFR 351.224(f) as ‘‘an 

error in addition, subtraction, or other 

arithmetic function, clerical error 

resulting from inaccurate copying, 

duplication, or the like, and any other 

similar type of unintentional error
