SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Regulations Governing the 

Inspection and Grading of Manufactured 

or Processed Dairy Products— 

RecordKeeping (Subpart B). 

OMB Number: 0581–0110. 

Expiration Date of Approval: January 

31, 2009. 

Type of Request: Extension and 

revision of a currently approved 

information collection. 

Abstract: The Agricultural Marketing 

Act (AMA) of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1621 et 

seq.) directs the Department to develop 

programs which will provide for and 

facilitate the marketing of agricultural 

products. One of these programs is the 

USDA voluntary inspection and grading 

program for dairy products (7 CFR Part 

58) where these dairy products are 

graded according to U.S. grade 

standards by a USDA grader. The dairy 

products under the dairy program may 

be identified with the USDA grade 

mark. Dairy processors, buyers, retailers, 

institutional users, and consumers have 

requested that such a program be 

developed to assure the uniform quality 

of dairy products purchased. In order 

for any service program to perform 

satisfactorily, there are regulations for 

the provider and user. For these reasons, 

the dairy inspection and grading 

program regulations were developed 

and issued under the authority of the 

Act. These regulations are essential to 

administer the program to meet the 

needs of the user and to carry out the 

purposes of the Act. 

The information collection 

requirements in this request are 

essential to carry out the intent of the 

AMA to ensure that dairy products are 

produced under sanitary conditions and 

that buyers are purchasing a quality 

product. In order for the Regulations 

governing the Inspection and Grading of 

Manufactured or Processed Dairy 

Products to serve the government, 

industry, and the consumer, laboratory 

test results must be recorded. 

Respondents are not required to 

submit information to the agency. The 

records are to be evaluated by a USDA 

inspector at the time of an inspection. 

These records include quality tests of 

each producer, plant records of required 

tests and analysis, and starter and 

cheese make records. As an offsetting 

benefit, the records required by USDA 

are also records that are routinely used 

by the inspected facility for their own 

supervisory and quality control 

purposes. 

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting 

burden for this collection of information 

is estimated to average 2.85 hours per 

response. 

Respondents: Dairy products 

manufacturing facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

487. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

1388. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: 2.85. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 3956. 

Comments are invited on: (1) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, including 

the use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Comments may be sent to Reginald 

Pasteur, 1400 Independence Avenue, 

SW., Room 2746—South, Washington, 

DC 20250–0230. All comments received 

will be available for public inspection at 

the above location, or on the Internet at 

http://www.regulations.gov. 

All responses to this notice will be 

summarized and included in the request 

for OMB approval. All comments will 

become a matter of public record.

Refined Brown Aluminum Oxide from 

the People’s Republic of China: Notice 

of Partial Rescission of Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review and 

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 

Results 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) is rescinding in part 

the administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on refined 

brown aluminum oxide (RBAO) from 

the People’s Republic of China (PRC) for 

the period November 1, 2006, to October 

31, 2007, with respect to Henan Yilong 

High and New Materials Co. Ltd. (Henan 

Yilong). This partial rescission is based 

on the withdrawal of the request for 

review by the interested party that 

requested the review. Additionally, the 

Department is extending the 

preliminary results of this 

administrative review to no later than 

December 1, 2008. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 3, 2008.

CVD Operations, Office 2, Import 

Administration, International Trade

telephone (202) 482–4136 or (202) 482–

4929, respectively. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: 

On November 1, 2007, the Department 

published a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on, inter alia, 

RBAO from the PRC. See Antidumping 

or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, 

or Suspended Investigation; 

Opportunity to Request Administrative 

Review, 72 FR 61859 (November 1, 

2007). In response, Fujimi Corporation 

(Fujimi), an importer of the subject 

merchandise, timely requested an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on RBAO from 

the PRC for entries of the subject 

merchandise during the November 1, 

2006, through October 31, 2007, period 

of review (POR) from two PRC 

producers/exporters: Henan Yilong and 

Qingdao Shunxingli Abrasives Co. Ltd. 

(Qingdao Shunxingli). 

On December 27, 2007, the 

Department initiated a review on Henan 

Yilong and Qingdao Shunxingli. See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews, 72 FR 73315 (December 27, 

2007). The preliminary results of this 

review are currently due no later than 

August 1, 2008. 

In a letter dated May 23, 2008, Fujimi 

withdrew its request for review of 

Henan Yilong and requested that the 

Department rescind the review with 

respect to this company. On June 2, 

2008, domestic producers Washington 

Mills, C + E Minerals, and Treibacher 

Scheifmittel Corp. (collectively, 

‘‘domestic producers’’), submitted 

comments opposing Fujimi’s request. 

Fujimi responded to the domestic 

producers’ opposition on June 11, 2008. 

Rescission, in Part, of Administrative 

Review 

The applicable regulation, 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1), states that if a party that 

requested an administrative review 

withdraws the request within 90 days of 

the publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review, the 

Secretary will rescind the review in 

whole or in part. Furthermore, the 

regulation states the Secretary may 

extend this time limit if the Secretary 

decides that it is reasonable to do so. 

The domestic producers object to 

Fujimi’s request, stating that it is 

untimely, and that both the Department 

and the domestic producers already 

have devoted extensive time and 

resources to this review. Further, the 

domestic producers contend that Fujimi 

waited until surrogate value data was 

placed on the record to determine 

whether the review results would be 

favorable before withdrawing its review 

request for Henan Yilong. 

Although Fujimi withdrew the 

request for review of Henan Xilong after 

the 90-day deadline, the Department 

finds it reasonable to extend the 

withdrawal deadline. Contrary to the 

domestic producers’ assertions, the 

Department has not yet devoted 

significant time or resources to 

analyzing Henan Yilong’s information 

for this review, e.g., the Department has 

not yet completed its analysis of Henan 

Xilong’s questionnaire responses, nor 

issued a supplemental questionnaire for 

portions of the Henan Xilong 

questionnaire response. See, e.g., Honey 

from Argentina: Notice of Extension of 

Time Limit for Preliminary Results and 

Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, 72 FR 50661 

(September 4, 2007), remaining 

unchanged in Honey from Argentina: 

Final Results of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review and 

Determination Not to Revoke in Part, 73 

FR 24220 (May 2, 2008) (where the 

Department extended the deadline for 

withdrawal of the review request 

because it had not yet devoted 

significant resources to the review). 

Additionally, the Department has not 

yet made any determinations on the 

selection of surrogate values to apply in 

this review. Thus, we find no basis to 

support the domestic producers’

allegation concerning Fujimi’s timing of 

the withdrawal request. Further, we 

note that the domestic producers did 

not request a review for this segment of 

the proceeding. Therefore, for all these 

reasons, the Department determines it is 

reasonable to rescind the review with 

respect to Henan Xilong. The 

Department will issue appropriate 

assessment instructions for Henan 

Xilong directly to U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) 15 days after 

the publication of this notice. The 

Department will direct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties for Henan Xilong at 

the cash deposit rates in effect on the 

date of entry for entries during the 

period November 1, 2006, through 

October 31, 2007. 

Notification to Parties 

This notice serves as a 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 period 

of time. Failure to comply with this
