SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIST 

plans to host several cloud computing 

workshops. The workshop schedules, 

registration information, and a list of 

frequently asked questions regarding 

these workshops are posted on the 

Internet at: http://www.nist.gov/itl/ 

cloud/upcoming-events.cfm. 

On May 20, 2010, NIST hosted the 

first Cloud Computing Forum & 

Workshop. The purpose of that initial 

workshop was to respond to the request 

of the Federal Chief Information Officer 

to NIST to lead federal efforts on 

standards for data portability, cloud 

interoperability, and security. The 

workshop’s goals were to initiate 

engagement with industry to accelerate 

the development of cloud standards for 

interoperability, portability, and 

security; introduce NIST Cloud 

Computing efforts; and discuss the 

Federal Government’s experience with 

cloud computing. 

The purpose of the second Cloud 

Computing Forum & Workshop II, to be 

held on November 4 and 5, 2010, is to 

report on the status of these efforts and 

to socialize the NIST strategy to 

collaboratively develop a Cloud 

Computing Roadmap among multiple 

federal and industrial stakeholders, and 

to advance a dialogue between these 

groups. To frame the discussions, the 

United States Chief Information Officer 

and Director of the National Institute of 

Standards and Technology will present 

their vision on the first day, November 

4. Panel discussions will consider the 

roles of standard organizations and adhoc standards in the cloud; need and 

use of a reference architecture to 

support cloud adoption; key cloud 

computing issues and proposed 

solutions; security in the cloud; and 

international aspects of cloud 

computing. Breakout sessions on the 

following day, November 5, designed to 

actively engage stakeholders, will 

discuss these issues, and develop a 

series of next steps for the effort in 

cloud computing standards. 

All visitors to the NIST site are 

required to pre-register to be admitted 

and have appropriate governmentissued photo ID to gain entry to NIST. 

Anyone wishing to attend this meeting 

must register at https://www-s.nist.gov/ 

CRS/ by close of business Thursday, 

October 28, 2010, in order to attend.

Certain New Pneumatic Off-the-Road 

Tires From the People’s Republic of 

China: Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(‘‘the Department’’) is conducting an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain new 

pneumatic off-the-road tires (‘‘OTR 

tires’’) from the People’s Republic of 

China (‘‘PRC’’) covering the period 

February 20, 2008, through August 31, 

2009. The administrative review (‘‘AR’’) 

covers six exporters. We have 

preliminarily determined that certain 

exporters who participated fully and are 

entitled to a separate rate sold subject 

merchandise to the United States at 

prices below normal value (‘‘NV’’) 

during the period of review (‘‘POR’’). If 

these preliminary results are adopted in 

our final results of review, we will 

instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (‘‘CBP’’) to assess 

antidumping duties on entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR for which 

the importer-specific assessment rates 

are above de minimis. 

We invite interested parties to 

comment on these preliminary results. 

We intend to issue the final results no 

later than 120 days from the date of 

publication of this notice, pursuant to 

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

1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). 

DATES: Effective Date: October 19, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 4, 2008, the 

Department published the antidumping 

duty order on OTR Tires from the PRC. 

See Certain New Pneumatic Off-theRoad Tires From the People’s Republic 

of China: Notice of Amended Final 

Affirmative Determination of Sales at 

Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping 

Duty Order, 73 FR 51624 (September 4, 

2008). On September 1, 2009, the 

Department published a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of this order for the February 20, 

2008, through, August 31, 2009, POR 

(hereinafter referred to as the 2008–2009 

review). See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

to Request Administrative Review, 74 

FR 45179 (September 1, 2009). In 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b), 

interested parties made requests for 

review between September 23, 2009, 

and September 30, 2009, on fifteen 

exporters. On October 26, 2009, the 

Department initiated the 2008–2009 

review.1 GPX International Tire 

Corporation (‘‘GPX’’) requested that the 

Department conduct a review of exports 

of eight of the fifteen exporters. On 

November 20, 2009, GPX withdrew its 

review request for seven of the eight 

exporters for which it requested review, 

but maintained its request that the 

Department conduct a review of Hebei 

Starbright Tire Co., Ltd. (‘‘Starbright’’). 

On January 22, 2010, the Department 

selected Starbright and TUTRIC as 

mandatory respondents. Between 

November 24, 2009, and February 24, 

2010, three more parties withdrew their 

respective review requests related to 

these same exporters, including 

TUTRIC. On May 21, 2010, the 

Department rescinded the 

administrative reviews of OTR tires 

with respect to TUTRIC and seven 

additional exporters because all parties 

requesting reviews of these entities had 

withdrawn their respective requests.2

On January 28, 2010, Hanify & King, 

bankruptcy counsel to GPX, informed 

the Department of GPX’s filing of a 

Chapter 11 petition under the United 

States Bankruptcy Code on October 26, 

2009, which counsel claimed 

automatically stayed the Department’s 

administrative proceedings with respect 

to GPX. On February 3, 2010, both 

domestic interested parties 3 submitted 

letters to the Department expressing 

concerns about the effect of GPX’s 

bankruptcy petition on the ongoing 

administrative review. In response to 

parties’ concerns, the Department 

extended regulatory deadlines for Titan 

and Bridgestone until resolution of 

those concerns. On February 12, 2010, 

as a result of Government closures 

during snowstorms, Import 

Administration tolled all deadlines by 

one calendar week. See Memorandum 

from DAS for Import Administration, 

‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As 

A Result of the Government Closure 

During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated 

February 12, 2010, available at http:// 

ia.ita.doc.gov/ia-highlights-andnews.html. On May 5, 2010, upon 

resolution of issues related to GPX’s 

bankruptcy petition, the Department 

extended the deadlines for (1) 

Verification requests, (2) factual 

information submissions, (3) comments 

on surrogate country selection, and (4) 

submission of publicly available 

information for valuing factors of 

production. 

On May 5, 2010, the Department 

selected Qingdao Free Trade Zone Full 

World International Trading Co., Ltd. 

(‘‘Full-World’’) as the mandatory 

respondent to replace TUTRIC. On May 

26, 2010, Full-World withdrew its 

request for an administrative review of 

its exports. On August 4, 2010, the 

Department published in the Federal 

Register a notice rescinding the 

administrative review of OTR tires with 

respect to Full-World.4

On June 7, 2010, the Department 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice fully extending the time limit for 

the preliminary results of this review to 

October 7, 2010. See New Pneumatic 

Off-the-Road Tires from the People’s
