10These include Allied Pacific Group (comprised 

of Allied Pacific Food (Dalian) Co., Ltd.; Allied 

Pacific Aquatic Products (Zhanjiang) Co., Ltd.; 

Zhanjiang Allied Pacific Aquaculture Co., Ltd.; 

Allied Pacific (H.K.) Co., Ltd.; and King Royal 

Investments Ltd.); Gallant Ocean (Nanhai), Ltd.; 

Luk Ka Paper Industrial Ltd.; Shantou Yelin Frozen 

Seafood Co., Ltd.; and Shantou Yuexing Enterprise 

Company. 

Where we do not have entered values 

for all U.S. sales, we calculated a per– 

unit assessment rate by aggregating the 

antidumping duties due for all U.S. 

sales to each importer (or customer) and 

dividing this amount by the total 

quantity sold to that importer (or 

customer). See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). To 

determine whether the duty assessment 

rates are de minimis, in accordance with 

the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(2), we calculated importer 

(or customer)-specific ad valorem ratios 

based on the estimated entered value. 

Where an importer (or customer)- 

specific ad valorem rate is zero or de 

minimis, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate appropriate entries without 

regard to antidumping duties. See 19 

CFR 351.106(c)(2). 

For the companies receiving a 

separate rate that were not selected for 

individual review, we will calculate an 

assessment rate based on the weighted 

average of the cash deposit rates 

calculated for the companies selected 

for individual review pursuant to 

section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. 

For those companies for which this 

review has been preliminarily 

rescinded,10 the Department intends to 

assess antidumping duties at rates equal 

to the cash deposit of estimated 

antidumping duties required at the time 

of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, 

for consumption, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.212(c)(2), if the review is 

rescinded for these companies. 

For Yelin/Hilltop, antidumping duties 

shall be assessed at rates equal to the 

cash deposit of estimated antidumping 

duties required at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.212(c)(2). The Department will 

issue appropriate assessment 

instructions directly to CBP 15 days 

after publication of this notice. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash–deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of these final results for 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of these final results, as 

provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 

Act: (1) for subject merchandise 

exported by Regal and Shantou 

Longsheng the cash deposit rate will be 

26.30 percent; (2) for all other PRC 

exporters of subject merchandise which 

have not been found to be entitled to a 

separate rate, and thus, are a part of the 

PRC–wide entity, the cash–deposit rate 

will be the PRC–wide rate of 112.81 

percent; and (3) for all non–PRC 

exporters of subject merchandise, the 

cash–deposit rate will be the rate 

applicable to the PRC supplier of that 

exporter. These deposit requirements 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

Notification of Interested Parties 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 

the reimbursement of antidumping 

duties prior to liquidation of the 

relevant entries during this POR. Failure 

to comply with this requirement could 

result in the Secretary’s presumption 

that reimbursement of antidumping 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties. 

This administrative review, and this 

notice are in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.213 and 351.221(b)(4). 

Dated: March 2, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Jennifer Skidmore or Kate Swails, 

(301)713–2289. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

subject permit is requested under the 

authority of the Marine Mammal 

Protection Act of 1972, as amended 

(MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the 

regulations governing the taking and 

importing of marine mammals (50 CFR 

part 216), the Endangered Species Act of 

1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 

et seq.), the regulations governing the 

taking, importing, and exporting of 

endangered and threatened species (50 

CFR 222–226), and the Fur Seal Act of 

1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1151 et 

seq.). 

The applicant is requesting 

authorization to import unlimited 

biological samples from up to 200 

individuals per year of the orders 

Cetacea (all species) and Pinnipedia 

(with the exception of walruses) from 

yet to be determined locations outside 

the U.S. All samples are being imported 

for diagnostic testing to determine the 

causes of outbreaks or unusual natural 

mortalities, investigations into the 

ecology of diseases in free-ranging 

animals, or unexpected mortalities in 

captive populations. All biological 

specimens would originate from 

animals found deceased in nature, 

collected opportunistically during the 

animals’ capture by other researchers 

possessing permits for such activities, or 

from specimens legally held in captivity 

outside the U.S.A. No live animals 

would be taken from the wild for 

research. The permit is requested for a 

period of five years. 

In compliance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), an initial 

determination has been made that the 

activity proposed is categorically 

excluded from the requirement to 

prepare an environmental assessment or 

environmental impact statement. 

Concurrent with the publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register, 

NMFS is forwarding copies of this 

application to the Marine Mammal 

Commission and its Committee of 

Scientific Advisors.

bowhead whales. 

SUMMARY: NMFS provides notification 

of the aboriginal subsistence whaling 

quota for bowhead whales has been 

assigned to the Alaska Eskimo Whaling 

Commission (AEWC), and other 

limitations deriving from regulations 

adopted at the 59th Annual Meeting of 

the International Whaling Commission 

(IWC). For 2009, the quota is 75 

bowhead whales struck. This quota and 

other limitations govern the harvest of 

bowhead whales by members of the 

AEWC. 

DATES: Effective March 9, 2009 through 

December 31, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Office of International 

Affairs, National Marine Fisheries

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Ryan Wulff, (301) 713–9090. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Aboriginal 

subsistence whaling in the United States 

is governed by the Whaling Convention 

Act (16 U.S.C. 916 et seq.). Regulations 

that implement the Act, found at 50 CFR 

230.6, require the Secretary of 

Commerce (Secretary) to publish, at 

least annually, aboriginal subsistence 

whaling quotas and any other 

limitations on aboriginal subsistence 

whaling deriving from regulations of the 

IWC. 

At the 59th Annual Meeting of the 

IWC, the Commission set catch limits 

for aboriginal subsistence use of 

bowhead whales from the BeringChukchi-Beaufort Seas stock. The 

bowhead catch limits were based on a 

joint request by the United States and 

the Russian Federation, accompanied by 

documentation concerning the needs of 

two Native groups: Alaska Eskimos and
