Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in these cases are 

addressed in the ‘‘Issues and Decision 

Memorandum’’ from Barbara E. Tillman, 

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for 

Import Administration, to Joseph A. 

Spetrini, Acting Assistant Secretary for 

Import Administration, dated August 

30, 2005 (Decision Memorandum), 

which is hereby adopted by this notice. 

The issues discussed in the Decision 

Memorandum include the likelihood of 

continuation or recurrence of dumping 

and the magnitude of the margin likely 

to prevail if the orders were revoked. 

Parties can find a complete discussion 

of all issues raised in these sunset 

reviews and the corresponding 

recommendations in this public 

memorandum, which is on file in room 

B–099 of the main Department building. 

In addition, a complete version of the 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly on the Web at http:// 

ia.ita.doc.gov, under the heading 

‘‘September 2005.’’ The paper copy and 

electronic version of the Decision 

Memorandum are identical in content. 

Final Results of Reviews 

We determine that revocation of the 

antidumping duty orders on steel beams 

from Japan and South Korea would 

likely lead to continuation or recurrence 

of dumping at the following percentage 

weighted–average margins: 

Manufacturers/Exporters/Producers Weighted–Average 

Margin (Percent)

of applications for the MBOC Program. 

70 FR 51338. In that notice, MBDA 

inadvertently included federal agencies 

as an entity eligible for grants under the 

MBOC program. This notice corrects the 

eligibility criteria to remove federal 

agencies as an eligible entity. Federal 

agencies are not eligible to apply to the 

MBOC program because financial 

assistance awards in the form of 

Cooperative Agreements will be used to 

fund the MBOC Program and federal 

agencies are not eligible to receive 

Cooperative Agreements. The correct 

eligibility criteria is stated below. 

Eligibility: For-profit entities 

(including sole-proprietorships, 

partnerships, and corporations), nonprofit organizations, State and local 

government entities, American Indian 

tribes, and Educational institutions are 

eligible to operate MBOCs. 

All other requirements stated in the 

August 30, 2005 solicitation remain the 

same.

not subject to Executive Order 12372, 

‘‘Intergovernmental Review of Federal 

Programs.’’

Limitation of Liability 

Applicants are hereby given notice 

that funds have not yet been 

appropriated for this program. In no 

event will MBDA or the department of 

Commerce be responsible for proposal 

preparation costs if this program fails to 

receive funding or is cancelled because 

of other agency priorities. Publication of 

this announcement does not oblige 

MBDA or the Department of Commerce 

to award any specific project or to 

obligate any available funds.

BILLING CODE 3510–21–P 

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

National Institute of Standards and 

Technology 

Announcing a Workshop on 

Developing an Analysis of Threats to 

Voting Systems 

AGENCY: National Institute of Standards 

and Technology, Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of public workshop. 

SUMMARY: The Help America Vote Act 

(HAVA) of 2002 has given the National 

Institute of Standards and Technology 

(NIST) a key role in helping to realize 

nationwide improvements in voting 

systems. NIST research activities 

authorized by HAVA include the 

security of computers, computer 

networks, and computer data storage 

used in voting systems, methods to 

detect and prevent fraud, and protection 

of voter privacy and the role of human 

factors in the design and application of 

voting systems. 

To assist NIST in its role of 

developing guidance for the security 

and related usability of electronic voting 

systems, NIST plans to solicit the 

election community’s participation in a 

workshop to develop an analysis of 

threats to voting systems. The election 

community members include election 

directors and officials, voting system 

researchers, election system vendors, 

threat experts in related areas, and 

others in the public and private sector. 

It is anticipated that the workshop 

will result in a published overview and 

analysis of threats to voting systems, 

and how in general these threats can be 

mitigated. The goal of the workshop is 

to gather further threat analysis material 

and input to material already developed 

from participants so that, together, these 

may be used to drive the creation of 

appropriate requirements for the 

security of voting systems. 

Participants in the workshop are 

encouraged to submit a position paper 

to the conference by September 30, 

2005. Position papers and other 

submitted materials will be made 

publicly available on the NIST voting 

Web site. There will be time available 

for open public comment. The detailed 

draft agenda and supporting 

documentation for the workshop will be 

made available prior to the workshop at 

the NIST voting Web site http:// 

vote.nist.gov/threats/. 

DATES: The workshop will be held on 

October 7, 2005, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

ADDRESSES: The workshop will be held 

in Building 820 (NIST North), Room 

152, at the National Institute of 

Standards and Technology, 

Gaithersburg, MD. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Additional information, as available 

may be obtained from the NIST voting 

Web site at http://vote.nist.gov/threats/ 

or by contacting Peter Ketcham, 

National Institute of Standards and 

Technology, 100 Bureau Drive, Stop 

8910, Gaithersburg, MD 20899–8910; 

telephone 301–975–5456; or e-mail: 

voting@nist.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIST will 

lead an outreach effort in coordination 

with election officials, voting system 

experts, security threat experts, and the 

public and private sector to develop and 

disseminate an analysis of threats to 

voting systems. Examples of such voting 

systems include Direct Recording 

Electronic (DRE) systems, systems using 

voter verified audit trail technology, 

optical scan voting systems, and ballot 

marking devices. 

The goal of the workshop is to solicit 

and gather threat analysis material and 

to gather critical analysis of the 

collected threats, their plausibility of 

various scenarios, assumptions made, 

and what lessons can be learned as a 

result of the analysis. Participants in the 

workshop will be expected to 

understand the collected materials and 

participate in the critical analysis and 

conclusions. In particular, participants 

will be asked to comment on the 

ramifications of the threat analysis 

materials so that this may result in 

general requirements for the security of 

voting systems. NIST will use the 

results of the workshop to develop 

security and related usability 

requirements for future iterations of the 

Voluntary Voting System Guidelines 

(VVSG). The proceedings of the 

workshop will be published. 

Workshop Topics Include 

Overview, importance, and goals of a 

threat analysis 

Questions that a threat analysis can 

answer 

Overviews of submitted position papers 

and threat analysis work 

General trends in attacks on information 

technology systems and ramifications 

to future voting systems security 

General requirements for voting system 

security 

Whether on-going voting systems threat 

analyses should be supported 

State and local election directors and 

officials, voting systems security experts 

and researchers, election lawyers, 

experts in threat analysis, voting 

systems vendors, and others from the 

public and private sector are encouraged 

to present information at the workshop 

describing their analysis of voting 

system threats and their conclusions as 

to how requirements for voting system 

security should be targeted. Participants 

wishing to formally present information 

at the workshop should submit 

proposals by September 16, 2005, and 

should submit any related threat 

analysis material to voting@nist.gov by 

September 30, 2005. Position papers, 

and other submitted materials will be 

made publicly available on the NIST 

voting Web site. 

Because of NIST security regulations, 

advance registration is mandatory; there 

will be no on-site, same-day registration. 

To register, please see http:// 

vote.nist.gov/threats/ or fax the 

registration form with your name, 

address, telephone, fax and e-mail 

address to 301–948–2067 (Attn:
