explosives storage shed, lighting, 

ventilation fans, one or more stormwater 

ponds, and a field office. The proposed 

Federal action is to approve Laramide 

Resources (USA), Inc.’s Plan of 

Operations with mitigations needed to 

protect other non-mineral surface 

resources consistent with Forest Plan, 

regulations, and other applicable laws. 

Possible Alternatives 

1. No Action. 2. Approve the Plan as 

presented. 3. Approve the Plan as 

presented by Laramide Resources 

(USA), Inc., with stipulations necessary 

to protect the non-mineral resources of 

the area. 

Responsible Official 

Nancy Rose, Forest Supervisor, Cibola 

National Forest. 2113 Osuna Road, NE., 

Albuquerque, NM 87113. 

Nature of Decision To Be Made 

The Forest Supervisor will use the EIS 

process to develop the necessary 

information to make an informed 

decision on whether or not to approve 

the proposed Plan as submitted, or to 

decide what additional mitigations are 

needed to protect other resources as 

provided for in 36 CFR 228.8. 

Scoping Process 

Scoping will include this NOI, listing 

in the Quarterly Schedule of Proposed 

Actions, letters to interested and 

affected individuals, agencies, and 

organizations, and legal notices, and the 

open houses in Grants and Gallup, New 

Mexico. Additional information about 

the project, schedule, permits and 

approvals, and opportunities for public 

involvement will be available at the 

open houses. The intent of scoping is to 

solicit comments on issues and 

alternatives that agencies and the public 

feel should be addressed in the EIS. 

Preliminary Issues 

One preliminary issue has been 

identified: the development of the La 

Jara Mesa Mine may affect the 

characteristics that make the Mount 

Taylor Traditional Cultural Property 

eligible for the National Register of 

Historic Places. Other issues may 

include groundwater contamination, 

natural resources, economics and health 

and safety issues. 

Permits or Licenses Required 

The approved Plan of Operations 

authorizes mining. Operations must be 

consistent with Forest Service 

Conditions of Approval, and other 

applicable laws and regulations, 

including state permits for mining in 

New Mexico. 

Comment Requested 

This notice of intent initiates the 

scoping process which guides the 

development of the environmental 

impact statement. Comments are 

solicited and are welcome for the 30-day 

comment period initiating on the 

publication date of this notice. 

It is important that reviewers provide 

their comments at such times and in 

such a way that they are useful to the 

Agency’s preparation of the EIS. 

Therefore, comments should be 

provided prior to the close of the 

comment period and should clearly 

articulate the reviewer’s concerns and 

contentions. The submission of timely 

and specific comments can affect a 

reviewer’s ability to participate in 

subsequent administrative review or 

judicial review. Comments received in 

response to this solicitation, including 

names and addresses of those who 

comment, will be part of the public 

record for this proposed action. 

Comments submitted anonymously will 

be accepted and considered; however, 

anonymous comments will not provide 

the respondent with standing to 

participate in subsequent administrative 

review or judicial review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Article 5 

of the WTO Agreement on Agriculture 

provides that additional import duties 

may be imposed on imports of products 

subject to tariffication as a result of the 

Uruguay Round, if certain conditions 

are met. The agreement permits 

additional duties to be charged if the 

price of an individual shipment of 

imported products falls below the 

average price for similar goods imported 

during the years 1986–88 by a specified 

percentage. It also permits additional 

duties to be imposed if the volume of 

imports of an article exceeds the average 

of the most recent 3 years for which data 

are available by 5, 10, or 25 percent, 

depending on the article. These 

additional duties may not be imposed 

on quantities for which minimum or 

current access commitments were made 

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 91 / Wednesday, May 13, 2009 / Notices 22513 

during the Uruguay Round negotiations, 

and only one type of safeguard, price or 

quantity may be applied at any given 

time to an article. 

Section 405 of the Uruguay Round 

Agreements Act requires that the 

President cause to be published in the 

Federal Register information regarding 

the price and quantity safeguards, 

including the quantity trigger levels, 

which must be updated annually based 

upon import levels during the most 

recent 3 years. The President delegated 

this duty to the Secretary of Agriculture 

in Presidential Proclamation No. 6763, 

dated December 23, 1994, 60 FR 1005 

(Jan. 4, 1995). The Secretary of 

Agriculture further delegated the duty to 

the Administrator of the Foreign 

Agricultural Service (7 CFR 2.43 (a)(2) 

(2007)). The Annex to this notice 

contains the updated quantity trigger 

levels. 

Additional information on the 

products subject to safeguards and the 

additional duties which may apply can 

be found in subchapter IV of Chapter 99 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (2007) and in the 

Secretary of Agriculture’s Notice of 

Uruguay Round Agricultural Safeguard 

Trigger Levels, published in the Federal 

Register at 60 FR 427 (Jan. 4, 1995). 

Notice: As provided in section 405 of 

the Uruguay Round Agreements Act, 

consistent with Article 5 of the 

Agreement on Agriculture, the safeguard 

quantity trigger levels previously 

notified are superceded by the levels 

indicated in the Annex to this notice. 

The definitions of these products were 

provided in the Notice of Uruguay 

Round Agricultural Safeguard Trigger 

Levels, published in the Federal 

Register, at 60 FR 427 (Jan. 4, 1995). 

Issued at Washington, DC, this 29th day of 

April 2009.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) has determined that 

Ternium Mexico, S.A. de C.V. 

(Ternium) is the successor–in-interest to 

Hylsa S.A. de C.V. (Hylsa) and, as a 

result, should be accorded the same 

treatment previously accorded to Hylsa 

in regard to the antidumping duty order 

on carbon and certain alloy steel wire 

rod (wire rod) from Mexico as of the 

date of publication of this notice in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 3, 2008, Ternium 

requested that the Department conduct 

a changed circumstances review of the 

antidumping duty order on wire rod 

from Mexico to determine whether 

Ternium is the successor–in-interest to 

Hylsa. On November 12, 2008, the 

Department initiated a changed 

circumstances review of the 

antidumping duty order on wire rod 

from Mexico. See Notice of Initiation of 

Antidumping Duty Changed 

Circumstances Review: Carbon and 

Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from 

Mexico, 73 FR 66839 (November 12, 

2008) (Notice of Initiation). On April 2, 

2009, the Department made its 

preliminary determination that Ternium 

is the successor–in-interest to Hylsa and 

should be treated as such for 

antidumping duty cash deposit 

purposes. See Notice of Preliminary 

Results of Antidumping Duty Changed 

Circumstances Review: Carbon and 

Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from 

Mexico, 74 FR 14957 (April 2, 2009) 

(Preliminary Results). In the Preliminary 

Results, we stated that interested parties 

could request a hearing no later than 10 

days or submit case briefs to the 

Department no later than 14 days after 

the publication of the Preliminary 

Results in the Federal Register, and 

submit rebuttal briefs, limited to the 

issues raised in those case briefs, seven 

days subsequent to the case briefs due 

date. We did not receive any hearing 

requests or comments on the 

Preliminary Results. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to this order 

is certain hot–rolled products of carbon 

steel and alloy steel, in coils, of 

approximately round cross section, 5.00 

mm or more, but less than 19.00 mm. in 

solid cross-sectional diameter. 

Specifically excluded are steel 

products possessing the above–noted 

physical characteristics and meeting the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the

concrete reinforcing bars and rods; and 

(f) free machining steel products (i.e., 

products that contain by weight one or 

more of the following elements: 0.03 

percent or more of lead, 0.05 percent or 

more of bismuth, 0.08 percent or more 

of sulfur, more than 0.04 percent of 

phosphorus, more than 0.05 percent of 

selenium, or more than 0.01 percent of 

tellurium). 

Also excluded from the scope are

and 1080 grade tire bead quality wire 

rod. This grade 1080 tire cord quality 

rod is defined as: (i) grade 1080 tire cord 

quality wire rod measuring 5.0 mm or 

more but not more than 6.0 mm in 

cross-sectional diameter; (ii) with an 

average partial decarburization of no 

more than 70 microns in depth 

(maximum individual 200 microns); (iii) 

having no non–deformable inclusions 

greater than 20 microns and no 

deformable inclusions greater than 35 

microns; (iv) having a carbon 

segregation per heat average of 3.0 or 

better using European Method NFA 04– 

114; (v) having a surface quality with no 

surface defects of a length greater than 

0.15 mm; (vi) capable of being drawn to 

a diameter of 0.30 mm or less with 3 or 

fewer breaks per ton, and (vii) 

containing by weight the following 

elements in the proportions shown: (1) 

0.78 percent or more of carbon, (2) less 

than 0.01 percent of aluminum, (3) 

0.040 percent or less, in the aggregate, 

of phosphorus and sulfur, (4) 0.006 

percent or less of nitrogen, and (5) not 

more than 0.15 percent, in the aggregate, 

of copper, nickel and chromium. 

This grade 1080 tire bead quality rod 

is defined as: (i) grade 1080 tire bead 

quality wire rod measuring 5.5 mm or 

more but not more than 7.0 mm in 

cross-sectional diameter; (ii) with an 

average partial decarburization of no 

more than 70 microns in depth 

(maximum individual 200 microns); (iii) 

having no non–deformable inclusions 

greater than 20 microns and no 

deformable inclusions greater than 35 

microns; (iv) having a carbon 

segregation per heat average of 3.0 or 

better using European Method NFA 04– 

114; (v) having a surface quality with no 

surface defects of a length greater than 

0.2 mm; (vi) capable of being drawn to 

a diameter of 0.78 mm or larger with 0.5 

or fewer breaks per ton; and (vii) 

containing by weight the following 

elements in the proportions shown: (1) 

0.78 percent or more of carbon, (2) less 

than 0.01 percent of soluble aluminum, 

(3) 0.040 percent or less, in the

aggregate, of copper, nickel and 

chromium (if chromium is not 

specified), or not more than 0.10 percent 

in the aggregate of copper and nickel 

and a chromium content of 0.24 to 0.30 

percent (if chromium is specified). 

For purposes of the grade 1080 tire 

cord quality wire rod and the grade 

1080 tire bead quality wire rod, an 

inclusion will be considered to be 

deformable if its ratio of length 

(measured along the axis - that is, the
