assets for Sidbec-Dosco. Consequently,

we do not have sufficient information to

initiate an investigation of a specific

program based on this allegation of

assistance.

D. Venezuela

We are including in our investigation

the following programs alleged in the

petition to have provided subsidies to

producers of the subject merchandise in

Venezuela:

1. Government Equity Infusions in

SIDOR in 1977, 1978, 1981, 1982 and

1983

2. Government Conversion of SIDOR’s

Debt to Equity in 1981, 1986, 1989

and 1992

3. Government Guarantees of SIDOR’s

Private Debt in 1987 and 1988

4. 1990 Government Loan to SIDOR

5. Government Provision of Iron Ore for

less than Adequate Remuneration

6. Preferential Tax Incentives Under

Decree 1477

Petitioners also allege that SIDOR was

uncreditworthy in the following years:

1977, 1978, 1981–1983, 1986–1990 and

1992. We will investigate SIDOR’s

creditworthiness in each of these years

because these are the years in which we

will be investigating either government

equity infusions, loans or loan

guarantees.

Distribution of Copies of the Petition

In accordance with section

702(b)(4)(A)(i) of the Act, copies of the

public version of the petitions have

been provided to the representatives of

Germany, Trinidad and Tobago, Canada

and Venezuela. We will attempt to

provide copies of the public version of

the petitions to all the exporters named

in the petition.

ITC Notification

Pursuant to section 702(d) of the Act,

we have notified the ITC of these

initiations.

Preliminary Determination by the ITC

The ITC will determine by April 14,

1997, whether there is a reasonable

indication that an industry in the

United States is being materially

injured, or is threatened with material

injury, by reason of imports from

Germany, Trinidad and Tobago, Canada

and Venezuela of wire rod. Any ITC

determination which is negative will

result in the investigations being

terminated; otherwise, the

investigations will proceed according to

statutory and regulatory time limits.

This notice is published pursuant to

Section 702(c)(2) of the Act.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request

AGENCY: United States Air Force,

Department of Defense.

ACTION: Notice.

The Department of Defense has

submitted to OMB for clearance, the

following proposal for collection of

information under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35).

Title and associated forms:

Department of Defense/United States

Air Force USAF Military Aircraft

Overflight Study.

Type of Request: New collection.

Number of Respondents: 1,500.

Responses Per Respondent: 1.

Annual Responses: 1,500.

Average Burden Per Response: 10

minutes.

Annual Burden Hours: 250.

Needs and Uses: This collection of

information is necessary to obtain

acoustical noise date and visitor survey

data, to estimate a dose-response

relationship between sounds from

military aircraft overflights and effects

(reactions) on visitors to National Park

Service (NPS) areas. Concurrent with

the on-site interviews, sound recordings

of the exposure to aircraft overflights

will be taken to determine the ‘‘noise

dose’’ experience by each visitor. A

minimum of 300 visitors and a

maximum of 500 visitors will be

surveyed at each of three potential sites

over a period of 4–5 days at each site.

This study builds upon research

conducted by the NPS to examine the

dose-response relationship between

sightseeing aircraft overflights and NPS

visitor reactions. Because of the

different characteristics of sounds from

military aircraft, the dose-response

relationship for military aircraft

overflights may be quite different from

the relationship developed for

sightseeing aircraft.

Affected Public: Individuals or

households.

Frequency: One time.

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Edward C.

Springer.

Written comments and

recommendations on the proposed

information collection should be sent to

Mr. Springer at the Office of

Management and Budget, Desk Officer

for DoD, Room 10236, New Executive

Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Robert

Cushing.

Written requests for copies of the

information collection proposal should

be sent to Mr. Cushing, WHS/DIOR,

1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite

1204, Arlington, VA 22202–4302.
