2The gross distinctions between commodity 

matchbooks and promotional matchbooks may be 

summarized as follows: (1) if it has no printing, or 

is printed with a generic message such as ‘‘Thank 

You’’ or a generic image such as the American Flag, 

or printed with national or regional store brands or 

corporate brands, it is commodity; (2) if it has 

printing, and the printing includes the name of a 

bar, restaurant, resort, hotel, club, cafe ́/coffee shop, 

grill, pub, eatery, lounge, casino, barbecue, or 

individual establishment prominently displayed on 

the matchbook cover, it is promotional. 

characteristic of having the name and/ 

or logo of a bar, restaurant, resort, hotel, 

club, cafe ́/coffee shop, grill, pub, eatery, 

lounge, casino, barbecue or individual 

establishment printed prominently on 

the matchbook cover. Promotional 

matchbook cover printing also typically 

includes the address and the phone 

number of the business or establishment 

being promoted.2 Also excluded are all 

other matches that are not fastened into 

a matchbook cover such as wooden 

matches, stick matches, box matches, 

kitchen matches, pocket matches, penny 

matches, household matches, strike– 

anywhere matches (aka ‘‘SAW’’ 

matches), strike–on-box matches (aka 

‘‘SOB’’ matches), fireplace matches, 

barbeque/grill matches, fire starters, and 

wax matches. 

The merchandise subject to this 

investigation is properly classified 

under subheading 3605.00.0060 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Subject 

merchandise may also enter under 

subheading 3605.00.0030 of the HTSUS. 

Although the HTSUS subheadings are 

provided for convenience and customs 

purposes, the written description of the 

merchandise under investigation is 

dispositive. 

Injury Test 

Because India is a ‘‘Subsidies 

Agreement Country’’ within the 

meaning of section 701(b) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the 

International Trade Commission (ITC) is 

required to determine, pursuant to 

section 701(a)(2) of the Act, whether 

imports of the subject merchandise from 

India materially injure, or threaten 

material injury to, a United States 

industry. On December 19, 2008, the 

ITC published its preliminary 

determination that there is a reasonable 

indication that an industry in the 

United States is materially injured by 

reason of allegedly subsidized imports 

from the PRC of subject merchandise. 

See Commodity Matchbooks from India; 

Determinations, 73 FR 77840 (December 

19, 2008); and Commodity Matchbooks 

from India (Preliminary), USITC Pub.

TA 1155 (December 2008). 

Analysis of Programs 

A complete description and 

discussion of the programs that the 

Department investigated are addressed 

in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum for the Final Affirmative 

Countervailing Duty Determination: 

Commodity Matchbooks from India, 

from John M. Andersen, Acting Deputy 

Assistant Secretary, to Ronald K. 

Lorentzen, Acting Assistant Secretary, 

dated October 15, 2009 (‘‘Issues and 

Decision Memorandum’’). Modifications 

to the calculations based on verification 

are also discussed in this memorandum. 

Parties can find this public 

memorandum in the Department’s CRU. 

In addition, a complete version of the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum can 

be accessed directly on the internet at 

http://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn/index.html. The 

paper copy and electronic version of the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum are 

identical in content. 

Suspension of Liquidation 

In accordance with section 

705(c)(1)(B)(i)(I) of the Act, we have 

calculated an individual subsidy rate for 

the company under investigation, 

Triveni, below. Section 705(c)(5)(A)(i) of 

the Act states that for companies not 

investigated, we will determine an all 

others rate equal to the weighted 

average countervailable subsidy rates 

established for exporters and producers 

individually investigated, excluding any 

zero and de minimis countervailable 

subsidy rates, and any rates determined 

entirely under section 776 of the Act. As 

Triveni was the only exporter/ 

manufacturer under investigation, the 

all others rate is based on Triveni’s total 

subsidy rate calculated for this final 

determination. 

Exporter/Manufacturer Net Subsidy Rate 

Triveni Safety Matches 

Pvt. Limited ............... 9.88% 

All Others ...................... 9.88% 

In accordance with section 703(d) of 

the Act, we instructed U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection to discontinue the 

suspension of liquidation for 

countervailing duty purposes for subject 

merchandise entered on or after August 

4, 2009, but to continue the suspension 

of liquidation of entries made from 

April 6, 2009 through August 3, 2009. 

We will issue a countervailing duty 

order and reinstate the suspension of 

liquidation under section 706(a) of the 

Act if the ITC issues a final affirmative 

injury determination, and we will 

require a cash deposit of estimated 

countervailing duties for such entries of 

merchandise in the amounts indicated 

above. If the ITC determines that 

material injury, or threat of material 

injury, does not exist, this proceeding 

will be terminated and all estimated 

duties deposited or securities posted as 

a result of the suspension of liquidation 

will be refunded or canceled. 

ITC Notification 

In accordance with section 705(d) of 

the Act, we will notify the ITC of our 

determination. In addition, we are 

making available to the ITC all non– 

privileged and nonproprietary 

information related to this investigation. 

We will allow the ITC access to all 

privileged and business proprietary 

information in our files, provided the 

ITC confirms that it will not disclose 

such information, either publicly or 

under an Administrative Protective 

Order (APO), without the written 

consent of the Assistant Secretary for 

Import Administration. 

Return or Destruction of Proprietary 

Information 

In the event that the ITC issues a final 

negative injury determination, this 

notice will serve as the only reminder 

to parties subject to an APO of their 

responsibility concerning the 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of the return/ 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and terms of an 

APO is a violation which is subject to 

sanction. 

This determination is issued and 

published pursuant to sections 705(d) 

and 777(i) of the Act. 

Dated: October 15, 2009. 

Ronald K. Lorentzen, 

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration.

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: NMFS is announcing that the 

quotas for the Atlantic surfclam and 

ocean quahog fisheries for 2010 remain 

status quo. Regulations governing these 

fisheries require NMFS to notify the 

public in the Federal Register of the 

allowable harvest levels for Atlantic

Exclusive Economic Zone if the 

previous year’s quota specifications 

remain unchanged.

fishery management plan for the

no action be taken to change the quota 

specifications for Atlantic surfclams and 

ocean quahogs for the 2010 fishing year 

(January 1 through December 31, 2010), 

and recommended maintaining the 2008 

quota levels of 3.4 million bu (181 

million L) for Atlantic surfclams, 5.333 

million bu (284 million L) for ocean 

quahogs, and 100,000 Maine bu (3.524
