allowed on roads and designated

motorized vehicle trails. Off-road use is

prevalent and common, which has

created what appear to be new roads .

With the present signing system, closing

this road with a sign and assuring that

the sign remains in place is difficult.

There are approximately four miles of

unauthorized ATV trail that are causing

undesirable impacts to streams and/or

wildlife habitat.

Motorized vehicle trail construction

(including a bridge), road closures, road

decommission, and signing roads closed

unless posted open would occur on

National Forest system lands located

within portions of Sections 23–26, and

35–36 of T.37S., R.8W., Salt Lake Base

Meridian (SLBM), Iron County, UT;

Sections 13–14, and 22–36 of T.37S.,

R.7W., and Sections 3–6, 17–23, and

26–35 of T.37S., R.6W., Salt Lake Base

Meridian (SLBM), Garfield County, UT;

and Sections 1–29, 33–36 of T.38S.,

R.8W.; Sections 1–36 of T.38S., R.7W.;

Sections 3–8, 17–20, and 28–33 of T.28–

33 of T.38S., R.6 W.; Sections 4–8, and

17–20 of T.39S. R.6W.; Sections 1–24 of

T.39S., R.7W.; and Sections 1–3, and

11–13 of T. 39S., R.8W., Salt Lake Base

Meridian (SLBM), Kane County, UT.

The proposed actions would

implement management direction,

contribute to meeting the goals and

objectives identified in the Dixie

National Forest Land and Resource

Management Plan, and move the project

area toward the desired condition. This

project EIS would be tiered to the Dixie

National Forest Land and Resource

Management Plan EIS (1986), which

provides goals, objectives, standards

and guidelines for the various activities

and land allocations on the Forest.

No permits or licenses are required to

implement the proposed action and the

issuing authority is the Forest Service.

As lead agency, the Forest Service

would analyze and document direct,

indirect, and cumulative environmental

effects for a range of alternatives. Each

alternative would include mitigation

measures as necessary and monitoring

requirements. No alternatives to the

proposed action have been identified at

this time, however, the following

preliminary issue has been identified:

(1) Use of roads within nesting areas for

northern goshawk and peregrine falcon

contribute to nesting failures.

Mary Wagner, Forest Supervisor,

Dixie National Forest, is the responsible

official. She can be reached by mail at

82 North 100 East, P.O. Box 580, Cedar

City, Utah, 84720–0580.

The Forest Service is seeking

comments from individuals,

organizations, and local, state, and

Federal agencies who may be interested

in or affected by the proposed action.

Scoping notices have been sent to

potentially affected persons and those

currently on the Dixie National Forest

mailing list that have expressed interest

in timber management proposals,

proposals relating to wildlife habitat

modifications and Forest Plan

amendments. Other interested

individuals, organizations, or agencies

may have their names added to the

mailing list for this project at any time

by submitting a request to: Priscilla R.

Summers, Project Environmental

Coordinator, 82 North 100 East, P.O.

Box 627, Cedar City, UT 84720–0627.

The analysis area includes both

National Forest System lands and

private lands. Proposed treatments

would occur only on National Forest

system lands. Motorized trails are

proposed to cross State Highway 14. No

federal or local permits, licenses or

entitlements would be needed.

The comment period on the draft

environmental impact statement will be

45 days from the date the

Environmental Protection Agency

publishes the notice of availability in

the Federal Register.

The Forest Service believes, at this

early stage, it is important to give

reviewers notice of several court rulings

related to public participation in the

environmental review process. First,

reviewers of the DEIS must structure

their participation in the environmental

review of the proposal so that it is

meaningful and alerts an agency to the

reviewers’ position and contentions.

Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v.

NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978). Also,

environmental objections that could

have been raised at the DEIS stage but

that are not raised until after completion

of the final EIS may be waived or

dismissed by the courts. City of Angoon

v. Hodel, (9th Circuit, 1986) and

Wisconsin Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490

F. Supp. 1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980).

Because of these court rulings, it is very

important that those interested in the

proposed action participate by the close

of the 45-day comment period so that

substantive comments and objections

are made available to the Forest Service

at the time it can meaningfully consider

them and respond to them in the final

EIS.

To assist the Forest Service in

identifying and considering issues and

concerns about the proposed action,

comments on the DEIS should be as

specific as possible. It is also helpful if

comments refer to specific pages or

chapters of the draft statement.

Comments may also address the

adequacy of the statement or the merits

of the alternatives formulated and

discussed in the statement. Reviewers

may wish to refer to the Council on

Environmental quality Regulations for

implementing the procedural provisions

of the National Environmental Policy

Act at 40 CFR 1503.3 in addressing

these points.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request

DOC has submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) for

clearance the following proposal for

collection of information under the

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.

Title: Quarterly Financial Reports

(QFR) Program.

Form Number(s): QFR–101(MG),

101A(MG), 102(TR), 103(NB).

Agency Approval Number: 0607–

0432.

Type of Request: Extension of a

currently approved collection.

Burden: 77,708 hours.

Number of Respondents: 13,125.

Avg Hours Per Response: 2 hours and

3 minutes.

Needs and Uses: The QFR Program

has published up-to-date aggregate

statistics on the financial results and

position of U.S. corporations since 1947.

It is a principal economic indicator that

also provides financial data essential to

calculation of key U.S. Government

measures of national economic

performance. The importance of this

data collection is reflected by the

granting of specific authority to conduct

the program in Title 13 of the United

States Code, Section 91, which requires

that financial statistics of business

operations be collected and published

quarterly. Public Law 105–252 extended

the authority of the Secretary of

Commerce to conduct the QFR Program

under Section 91 through September 30,

2005.

The QFR is scheduled to convert to

the North American Industry

Classification System (NAICS) in April

2002 with the publication of the fourth

quarter 2001 data. With the adoption of

the NAICS, a number of industries

currently covered by QFR under the

Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)

system will be out of scope.

Specifically, QFR will no longer collect

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 98 / Monday, May 21, 2001 / Notices 27937

data from companies primarily engaged

in Publishing and Printing, except

Commercial Printing; Logging; and

Eating and Drinking Places. Publishing

and Printing was moved to the NAICS

Information sector; Logging to the

Agriculture, Forestry; Fishing, and

Hunting sector; Eating and Drinking

Places to the Accommodation and Food

Services sector. This request is for

extension of the current OMB approval.

Affected Public: Businesses or other

for-profit organizations.

Frequency: Quarterly and annually.

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

Legal Authority: Title 13 USC, Section

91; P.L. 105–252.

OMB Desk Officer: Susan Schechter,

(202) 395–5103.

Copies of the above information

collection proposal can be obtained by

calling or writing Madeleine Clayton,

Departmental Paperwork Clearance

Officer, (202) 482–3129, Department of

Commerce, room 6086, 14th and

Written comments and

recommendations for the proposed

information collection should be sent

within 30 days of publication of this

notice to Susan Schechter, OMB Desk

Officer, room 10201, New Executive

Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

Dated: May 15, 2001.

The Applicable Statute

Unless otherwise indicated, all

citations to the Tariff Act of 1930, as

amended (‘‘the Act’’), are references to

the provisions effective January 1, 1995,

the effective date of the amendments

made to the Act by the Uruguay Round

Agreements Act (‘‘URAA’’). In addition,

unless otherwise indicated, all citations

to the Department’s regulations are to

the regulations at 19 CFR part 351

(2000).

Postponement of Final Determination

Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides

that a final determination may be

postponed until not later than 135 days

after the date of the publication of the

preliminary determination if, in the

event of an affirmative preliminary

determination, a request for such

postponement is made by exporters who

account for a significant proportion of

exports of the subject merchandise, or in

the event of a negative preliminary

determination, a request for such

postponement is made by the

petitioners. The Department’s

regulations, at 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2),

require that requests by respondents for

postponement of a final determination

be accompanied by a request for

extension of provisional measures from

a four-month period to not more than

six months.

On May 2, 2001, the Department

received a request pursuant to section

735(a)(2)(A) of the Act to postpone its

final determination until 135 days after

publication of the Department’s

preliminary determination and to

extend the imposition of provisional

measures from a four-month period to

not more than six months from

respondent Zaporizhstal Iron and Steel

Works, ‘‘the Midland group of

companies’’ (i.e. Midland Industries

Limited, Midland Metals International,

Inc., and Midland Resources Holding

Limited), and the State Committee of

Industrial Policy of Ukraine.

In accordance with 19 CFR

351.210(b)(2)(ii), because (1) our

preliminary determination is

affirmative, (2) the respondent

requesting a postponement accounts for

a significant proportion of exports of the

subject merchandise, and (3) no

compelling reasons for denial exist, we

are granting the respondent’s request

and are postponing the final

determination to no later than

September 15, 2001, which is 135 days

after the publication of the preliminary

determination. See Notice of

Preliminary Determination of Sales at

Less than Fair Value: Certain Hot-Rolled

Carbon Steel Flat Products from

Ukraine. Suspension of liquidation will

be extended accordingly.

This notice of postponement is

published pursuant to 19 CFR

351.210(g).

Dated: May 15, 2001.
