Authority 

Scientific research permits are issued 

in accordance with section 10(a)(1)(A) 

of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and 

regulations governing listed fish and 

wildlife permits (50 CFR 222–226). 

NMFS issues permits based on findings 

that such permits: (1) are applied for in 

good faith; (2) if granted and exercised, 

would not operate to the disadvantage 

of the listed species that are the subject 

of the permit; and (3) are consistent 

with the purposes and policy of section 

2 of the ESA. The authority to take 

listed species is subject to conditions set 

forth in the permits. 

Anyone requesting a hearing on an 

application listed in this notice should 

set out the specific reasons why a 

hearing on that application would be 

appropriate (see ADDRESSES). Such 

hearings are held at the discretion of the 

Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, 

NMFS. 

Applications Received 

Permit 15205 

The Center for the Historical Ecology 

of the Salish Sea (KWIAHT) is seeking 

a five-year permit to take juvenile PS 

Chinook salmon while conducting 

research in the San Juan Islands of 

Washington state. The research is 

designed to help assess juvenile habitat 

use in the San Juan Islands. The 

researchers would collect information 

on patterns of prey use, contaminant 

accumulation, and Chinook stock 

structure in the study area. The research 

would benefit the listed species by 

helping direct habitat protection 

(especially those habitats linked to prey 

abundance and bioaccumulation of 

toxicants). The KWIAHT would capture 

fish (using beach seines); measure them; 

check them for marks, tags, and 

parasites; collect stomach contents and 

fin tissue samples; and release them. 

The researchers do not intend to kill any 

of the fish being captured but a small 

number may die as an unintended result 

of the research activities. 

Permit 15230 

Forest and Channel Metrics, Inc., 

(FCM) is seeking a five-year permit to 

take juvenile PS Chinook salmon and PS 

steelhead while conducting research in 

the Tolt River basin a tributary to the 

Snoqualmie River in northwest 

Washington State. The research is part 

of the Seattle City Light Department’s 

effort to enhance salmonid habitat in the 

basin and the department would 

cooperate in the sampling. The 

researchers would collect information 

on juvenile salmonid status and 

distribution at the river-reach scale 

during different seasons of the year. The 

research would benefit listed species by 

helping direct habitat mitigation and 

enhancement efforts. The FCM 

researchers would capture fish (using 

boat electrofishing, backpack 

electrofishing, and seine nets); collect 

weights, lengths, and scale samples; and 

release them. A portion of the PS 

steelhead would be tagged with passive 

integrated transponders (PIT-tags). The 

researchers do not intend to kill any of 

the fish being captured but a small 

number may die as an unintended result 

of the research activities. 

Permit 15235 

The Oregon State University 

Department of Fish and Wildlife (OSU) 

is requesting a five-year scientific 

research to take juvenile Oregon Coast 

coho salmon. The purpose of the project 

is to study the effects of dam removal 

on aquatic and riparian habitats and on 

the abundance and diversity of 

vertebrates, invertebrates, and 

macrophytes. The OSU researchers 

would assess ecosystem conditions 

above and below Gold Ray Dam before 

and after dam removal. They would also 

assess ecosystem conditions at 

randomly selected sites throughout the 

main stem of the Rogue River. The 

information gathered by this research 

would benefit listed salmonids by 

helping resource managers evaluate how 

dam removal affects aquatic species. 

The applicant proposes to use boat 

electrofishing equipment to capture fish 

in the Rogue River from river-mile 5 up 

to Lost Creek Dam. Listed fish would be 

enumerated, measured, evaluated for 

health conditions, and released. The 

applicant does not intend to kill any 

listed fish species, but a small number 

may die as an unintended result of the 

activities. 

This notice is provided pursuant to 

section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will 

evaluate the applications, associated 

documents, and comments submitted to 

determine whether the applications 

meet the requirements of section 10(a) 

of the ESA and Federal regulations. The 

final permit decisions will not be made 

until after the end of the 30–day 

comment period. NMFS will publish 

notice of its final action in the Federal 

Register.

Background 

On November 25, 2009, the 

Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Department’’) initiated the first 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on steel wire 

garment hangers from the People’s 

Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’), covering the 

period March 25, 2008, through 

September 30, 2009. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews, 74 FR 61658 

(November 25, 2009) (‘‘Initiation’’). The 

preliminary results of this 

administrative review were due no later 

than July 3, 2010. 

On February 12, 2010, the Department 

exercised its discretion to toll the 

deadlines for all Import Administration 

cases by seven calendar days due to the 

February 5 through February 12, 2010, 

Federal Government closure. See 

‘‘Memorandum to the Record from 

Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import 

Administration, regarding ‘Tolling of 

Administrative Deadlines as a Result of 

the Government Closure During the 

Recent Snowstorm,’ ’’ dated February 12, 

2010. As a result, the preliminary 

results of this administrative review are 

currently due on July 10, 2010. 

On February 12, 2010, the Department 

selected two respondents for individual 

examination. See ‘‘Memorandum to 

James Doyle, Director, Office 9, Import 

Administration, from Josh Startup,

1One hundred and twenty days from July 10, 

2010, is November 7, 2010, which is a Sunday. 

However, Department practice dictates that where 

a deadline falls on a weekend, the appropriate 

deadline is the next business day. See Notice of 

Clarification: Application of ‘‘Next Business Day’’ 

Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines

International Trade Compliance 

Analyst, Import Administration; First 

Administrative Review of Steel Wire 

Garment Hangers from the People’s 

Republic of China: Selection of 

Respondents for Individual Review,’’ 

dated February 12, 2010. Between 

March 2010 and April 2010, the selected 

respondents submitted responses to the 

Department’s antidumping duty 

questionnaire, dated February 12, 2010. 

Extension of Time Limit for the 

Preliminary Results 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), 

requires the Department to issue the 

preliminary results of an administrative 

review within 245 days after the last day 

of the anniversary month of an order for 

which a review is requested. If it is not 

practicable to complete the review 

within the time period, section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the 

Department to extend this deadline to 

365 days. 

The Department finds that it is not 

practicable to complete the preliminary 

results of this administrative review 

within the time period set forth in the 

Initiation, as tolled. Specifically, we 

determine that it is not practicable to 

complete the preliminary results of this 

administrative review within the 

original time limit because the 

respondent selection process was 

complicated due to the conflicting 

comments submitted by interesting 

parties, and the Department requires 

additional time to analyze questionnaire 

responses, issue supplemental 

questionnaires, and evaluate surrogate 

value submissions for purposes of the 

preliminary results. 

Because the current deadline does not 

afford the Department adequate time to 

gather, analyze, request supplementary 

information, and review surrogate value 

information, the Department requires 

more time to complete the preliminary 

results. Therefore, in accordance with 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 

Department finds that it is not 

practicable to complete the preliminary 

results within the original time period 

and is extending the time limit for 

issuing the preliminary results by 120 

days until November 8, 2010.1 The final 

results continue to be due 120 days after 

the publication of the preliminary 

results. 

This notice is published pursuant to 

sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 30, 2010. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Department’’) has determined that a 

request for a new shipper review of the 

antidumping duty order on raw flexible 

magnets (‘‘magnets’’) from the People’s 

Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) meets the 

statutory and regulatory requirements 

for initiation. The period of review 

(‘‘POR’’) for the new shipper review is 

September 1, 2009, through February 

28, 2010. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The antidumping duty order on 

magnets from the PRC was published on 

September 17, 2008. See Antidumping 

Duty Order: Raw Flexible Magnets from 

the People’s Republic of China, 73 FR 

53847 (September 17, 2008). On March 

29, 2010, pursuant to section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), and 19 CFR 

351.214(c), the Department received a 

timely request for a new shipper review 

from Jingzhou Meihou Flexible Magnet 

Company, Ltd. (‘‘Jingzhou Meihou’’). 

However, the company business 

proprietary version was not properly 

bracketed. The Department requested 

that Jingzhou Meihou resubmit the new 

shipper review request and noted that 

the resubmission would be considered 

timely for consideration of a new 

shipper review. See Memorandum to 

the File from Rebecca Pandolph, 

International Trade Compliance 

Analyst, AD/CVD Operations, Office 4, 

‘‘Antidumping Duty Order on Raw 

Flexible Magnets from the People’s 

Republic of China,’’ dated April 5, 2010. 

On April 5, 2010, Jingzhou Meihou 

resubmitted its new shipper review 

request. Jingzhou Meihou certified that 

Jingzhou Meihou is both the exporter 

and producer of the subject 

merchandise upon which its request for 

a new shipper review was based. On 

April 23, 2010, Magnum Magnetics 

Corporation (‘‘Petitioner’’) submitted 

comments regarding the request for new 

shipper review by Jingzhou Meihou. 

The Department is currently evaluating 

the comments submitted by Petitioner 

and will address the comments during 

the new shipper review. 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), 

Jingzhou Meihou certified that it did not 

export raw flexible magnets to the 

United States during the period of 

investigation (‘‘POI’’), i.e., January 1, 

2007 through June 30, 2007. Further, 

pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A), 

Jingzhou Meihou certified that, since 

the initiation of the investigation, it has 

never been affiliated with any PRC 

exporter or producer who exported 

magnets to the United States during the 

POI, including those not individually 

examined during the investigation. As 

required by 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), 

Jingzhou Meihou, also certified that its 

export activities were not controlled by 

the central government of the PRC. 

In addition to the certifications 

described above, pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iv), Jingzhou Meihou 

submitted documentation establishing 

the following: (1) the date on which 

Jingzhou Meihou first shipped magnets 

for export to the United States and the 

date on which the magnets were first 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption; (2) the volume of its 

first shipment;1 and (3) the date of its 

first sale to an unaffiliated customer in 

the United States. 

The Department conducted a U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) 

database query and confirmed that 

shipment of subject merchandise from 

Jingzhou Meihou had entered the 

United States for consumption and that 

liquidation of such entry had been
