Background The Commission instituted these reviews on July 1, 2021 (86 FR 35124) and determined on October 4, 2021, that it would conduct expedited reviews (86 FR 72994, December 23, 2021). The Commission made these determinations pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)). It completed and filed its determinations in these reviews on February 10, 2022. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 5279 (February 2022), entitled Stainless Steel Wire Rod from Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan: Investigation Nos. 731–TA– 771–772, and 775 (Fourth Review).

ACTION : Notice. SUMMARY : In accordance with the Millennium Challenge Act of 2003, as amended, the Millennium Challenge Corporation is publishing a summary, justification, and full text of the proposed First Amendment to the Millennium Challenge Compact between the United States of America, acting through the Millennium Challenge Corporation, and the Republic of Coˆ te d’Ivoire, acting through the Ministry of Economy and Finances. Representatives of the United States Government and the Government of Coˆ te d’Ivoire plan to conclude the Amendment in the first quarter of 2022. (Authority: 22 U.S.C. 7708(i)(2)) Dated: February 10, 2022. Thomas G. Hohenthaner, Acting VP/General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. Summary of First Amendment to Millennium Challenge Compact With the Republic of Coˆ te d’Ivoire The Board of Directors of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (‘‘MCC’’) has approved an amendment (the ‘‘Amendment’’) to the existing US$524,740,000, five-year Millennium Challenge Compact between the United States of America, acting through MCC, and the Republic of Coˆ te d’Ivoire (the ‘‘Compact’’). Background The Compact was signed on November 7, 2017 and entered into force on August 5, 2019. The Compact aims to contribute to economic growth and investment in Coˆ te d’Ivoire through two projects supporting the Ivorian government’s drive to diversify its economy through investments focused on education and transportation: (i) The Skills for Employability and Productivity Project; and (ii) the Abidjan Transport Project. Scope of the Amendment MCC proposes to extend the term of the Compact for an additional twelve months until August 5, 2025, and to provide additional funding of up to $12,000,000. The term extension is necessary to mitigate implementation delays due to the COVID–19 pandemic and to complete Compact projects as originally contemplated. The proposed additional funding will be used to cover additional program administration and related oversight costs associated with extending the Compact’s term. Justification for the Amendment The first case of COVID–19 in Coˆ te d’Ivoire was confirmed on March 11, 2020. The Government declared a state of emergency on March 23, 2020, imposing curfews and major restrictions on the movement of people.

SUMMARY : As a result of the determinations by the Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that revocation of the antidumping duty (AD) orders on stainless steel wire rod (SSWR) from Japan, the Republic of Korea (Korea), and Taiwan would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, Commerce is publishing a notice of continuation of these AD orders. DATES : Applicable February 24, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : Christopher Williams or Minoo Hatten, AD/CVD Operations, Office I, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–5166 or (202) 482–1690, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background On September 15, 1998, Commerce published in the Federal Register the AD orders on SSWR from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. 1 On July 1, 2021, Commerce initiated,2 and the ITC instituted, 3 sunset reviews of the Orders, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As a result of its reviews, Commerce determined, pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the Act, that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping. Commerce, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping rates likely to prevail should these Orders be revoked.4 On February 16, 2022, the ITC published its determination that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act.5 Scope of the Orders The merchandise covered by the Orders is SSWR, which comprises products that are hot-rolled or hot-rolled annealed and/or pickled and/or descaled rounds, squares, octagons, hexagons or other shapes, in coils, that may also be coated with a lubricant containing copper, lime or oxalate. SSWR is made of alloy steels containing, by weight, 1.2 percent or less of carbon and 10.5 percent or more of chromium, with or without other elements. These products are manufactured only by hot-rolling or hot rolling annealing, and/or pickling and/ or descaling, are normally sold in coiled form, and are of solid cross-section. The majority of SSWR sold in the United States is round in cross-sectional shape, annealed and pickled, and later cold finished into stainless steel wire or small-diameter bar. The most common size for such products is 5.5 millimeters or 0.217 inches in diameter, which represents the smallest size that normally is produced on a rolling mill and is the size that most wire-drawing machines are set up to draw. The range of SSWR sizes normally sold in the United States is between 0.20 inches and 1.312 inches in diameter. Two stainless steel grades are excluded from the scope of the Orders. SF20T and K–M35FL are excluded. The chemical makeup for the excluded grades is as follows: SF20T Carbon 0.05 max Manganese 2.00 max Phosphorous 0.05 max Sulfur 0.15 max Silicon 1.00 max Chromium 19.00/21.00 Molybdenum 1.50/2.50 Lead-added (0.10/0.30) Tellurium-added (0.03 min) K–M35FL Carbon 0.015 max Silicon 0.70/1.00 Manganese 0.40 max Nickel 0.30 max Chromium 12.50/14.00 Lead 0.10/0.30 Phosphorous 0.04 max Sulfur 0.03 max Aluminum 0.20/0.35 The products subject to the Orders are currently classifiable under subheadings 7221.00.0005, 7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0030, 7221.00.0045, and 7221.00.0075 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the Orders is dispositive. Continuation of the Orders As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a), Commerce hereby orders the continuation of the Orders. U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD cash deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise. The effective date of the continuation of the Orders will be the date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next five-year (sunset) reviews of the Orders not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of continuation. Administrative Protective Order (APO) This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to APO of their responsibility concerning the return, destruction, or conversion to judicial protective order of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Failure to comply is a violation of the APO which may be subject to sanctions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background On April 1, 2021, based on a timely request for review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative review on washers from Mexico. 1 This review covers one producer/exporter of the subject merchandise, Electrolux Home Products Corp. N.V. and Electrolux Home Products de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (collectively, Electrolux). For a complete description of the events that followed the initiation of this review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 2 Scope of the Order The products covered by the order are all large residential washers and certain subassemblies thereof from Mexico. For a complete description of the scope of the order, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.3 Methodology Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Constructed export price is calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. NV is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance’s Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/ public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. A list of the topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached as an appendix to this notice. Preliminary Results of the Review As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the respondent for the period February 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021: Producer/exporter Weighted- average dumping margin (percent) Electrolux .................................... 0.00 Disclosure and Public Comment Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed in connection with these preliminary results to interested parties within five days after the date of publication of this notice.4 Interested parties may submit case briefs to Commerce no later than 30 days after the date of publication of this notice.5 Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed no later than seven days after the time limit for filing case briefs.6 Parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this proceeding are encouraged to submit with each argument: (1) A statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the argument; and (3) a table of authorities.7 Case and rebuttal briefs should be filed using ACCESS.8 Note that Commerce has temporarily modified certain of its requirements for serving documents containing business proprietary information.9 Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to request a hearing must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, filed electronically via ACCESS within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice. 10 Hearing requests should contain: (1) The party’s name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of issues to be discussed.

Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative review, including the results of its analysis of issues raised in any written briefs, not later than 120 days after the date of publication of this notice, unless otherwise extended. 12 Assessment Rates Upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. 13 If the weighted average dumping margin for Electrolux is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will calculate importer- specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer’s examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in accordance with 19 CFR VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:46 Feb 23, 2022 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\24FEN1.SGM 24FEN1 jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── === USITC Scheduling === 72994 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 244 / Thursday, December 23, 2021 / Notices 1 A record of the Commissioners’ votes is available from the Office of the Secretary and at the Commission’s website. 2 The Commission has found the joint response to its notice of institution filed on behalf of on behalf of Carpenter Technology Corporation, North American Stainless, and Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc., which are all domestic producers of stainless steel wire rod, to be adequate. Comments from other interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)). New Jersey; Evonik Superabsorber LLC (‘‘Evonik’’), Greensboro, North Carolina; and Nippon Shokubai America Industries, Inc. (‘‘NSAI’’), Pasadena, Texas, filed a petition with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United States is materially injured or threatened with material injury by reason of LTFV imports of superabsorbent polymers from South Korea. Accordingly, effective November 2, 2021, the Commission instituted antidumping duty investigation No. 731–TA–1574 (Preliminary). Notice of the institution of the Commission’s investigation and of a public conference to be held in connection therewith was given by posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal Register of November 10, 2021 (86 FR 52565). In light of the restrictions on access to the Commission building due to the COVID–19 pandemic, the Commission conducted its conference through written testimony and video conference. All persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate. The Commission made this determination pursuant to § 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(a)). It completed and filed its determination in this investigation on December 17, 2021.

The public record for these reviews may be viewed on the Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS) at https://edis.usitc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background.—On October 4, 2021, the Commission determined that the domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution (86 FR 35124, July 1, 2021) of the subject five-year reviews was adequate and that the respondent interested party group response was inadequate. The Commission did not find any other circumstances that would warrant conducting a full review. 1 Accordingly, the Commission determined that it would conduct expedited reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)). For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and rules of general application, consult the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207). Please note the Secretary’s Office will accept only electronic filings at this time. Filings must be made through the Commission’s Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, https:// edis.usitc.gov). No in-person paper- based filings or paper copies of any electronic filings will be accepted until further notice. Staff report.—A staff report containing information concerning the subject matter of the reviews has been placed in the nonpublic record, and will be made available to persons on the Administrative Protective Order service list for these reviews on January 4, 2022. A public version will be issued thereafter, pursuant to section 207.62(d)(4) of the Commission’s rules. Written submissions.—As provided in section 207.62(d) of the Commission’s rules, interested parties that are parties to the reviews and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of institution,2 and any party other than an interested party to the reviews may file written comments with the Secretary on what determinations the Commission should reach in the reviews. Comments are due on or before January 12, 2022 and may not contain new factual information. Any person that is neither a party to the five-year reviews nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement (which shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the reviews by January 12, 2022. However, should the Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) extend the time limit for its completion of the final results of its reviews, the deadline for comments (which may not contain new factual information) on Commerce’s final results is three business days after the issuance of Commerce’s results. If comments contain business proprietary information (BPI), they must conform with the requirements of sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission’s rules. The Commission’s Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the Commission’s website at https:// www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_ on_filing_procedures.pdf, elaborates upon the Commission’s procedures with respect to filings. In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the rules, each document filed by a party to the reviews must be served on all other parties to the reviews (as identified by either the public or BPI service list), and a certificate of service must be timely filed. The Secretary will not accept a document for filing without a certificate of service. Determination.—The Commission has determined these reviews are extraordinarily complicated and therefore has determined to exercise its authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(5)(B).

The public record for the Commission’s antidumping duty and countervailing duty investigations may be viewed on the Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS) at https:// edis.usitc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Effective December 3, 2020, the Commission established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of its investigations on standard steel welded wire mesh (‘‘wire mesh’’) from Mexico (85 FR 81487, December 16, 2020), following a preliminary determination by the U.S. Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) that imports of subject wire mesh from Mexico were being subsidized by the government of Mexico (85 FR 78124, December 3, 2020). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of the Commission’s investigations and of a public hearing held in connection therewith was given by posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal Register on December 16, 2020 (85 FR 81487). In light of the restrictions on access to the Commission building due to the COVID–19 pandemic, the Commission conducted its hearing through written testimony and video conference on February 12, 2021. All persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate. The Commission subsequently issued its final determination that an industry in the United States was materially injured by reason of imports of wire mesh from Mexico provided for in subheadings 7314.20.00 and 7314.39.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) that have been found by Commerce to be subsidized by the government of Mexico (86 FR 18555, April 9, 2021). Commerce has issued a final affirmative antidumping duty determination with respect to wire mesh from Mexico (86 FR 32891, June 23, 2021). Accordingly, the Commission currently is issuing a supplemental schedule for its antidumping duty investigation on imports of wire mesh from Mexico. This supplemental schedule is as follows: The deadline for filing supplemental party comments on Commerce’s final antidumping duty determination is July 2, 2021. Supplemental party comments may address only Commerce’s final antidumping duty determination regarding imports of wire mesh from Mexico. These supplemental final comments may not contain new factual information and may not exceed five (5) pages in length. The supplemental staff report in the final phase of the Commission’s antidumping duty investigation covering subject imports from Mexico will be placed in the nonpublic record on July 8, 2021, and a public version will be issued thereafter. For further information concerning this proceeding see the Commission’s notice cited above and the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A and C (19 CFR part 207). Additional written submissions to the Commission, including requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission’s rules, shall not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such submissions, or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request by a Commissioner or Commission staff. In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission’s rules, each document filed by a party to the antidumping duty and countervailing duty investigations must be served on all other parties to the investigations (as identified by either the public or BPI service list), and a certificate of service must be timely filed. The Secretary will not accept a document for filing without a certificate of service.

The public record for this proceeding may be viewed on the Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS) at https://edis.usitc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background.—On September 15, 1998, the Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) issued antidumping duty orders on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Italy, Japan, Korea, Spain, Sweden, and Taiwan (63 FR 49327). Following the first five-year reviews by Commerce and the Commission, effective August 13, 2004, Commerce issued a continuation of the antidumping duty orders on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Italy, Japan, Korea, Spain, and Taiwan (69 FR 50167). Commerce revoked the antidumping duty order on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Sweden, effective April 23, 2007 (72 FR 25261, May 4, 2007). Following the second five-year reviews by Commerce and the Commission, effective June 17, 2010, Commerce issued a continuation of the antidumping duty orders on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Italy, Japan, Korea, Spain, and Taiwan (75 FR 34424). Following the third full five- year reviews by Commerce and the Commission, effective August 15, 2016, Commerce revoked the antidumping duty orders on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Italy and Spain, as a result of the ITC’s determination that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on stainless steel wire rod from Italy and Spain would not likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States. Additionally, Commerce issued a continuation of the antidumping duty orders on imports of stainless steel wire rod from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan (81 FR 54043). The Commission is now conducting a fourth review pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), to determine whether revocation of the orders would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to the domestic industry within a reasonably foreseeable time. Provisions concerning the conduct of this proceeding may be found in the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure at 19 CFR part 201, subparts A and B, and 19 CFR part 207, subparts A and F. The Commission will assess the adequacy of interested party responses to this notice of institution to determine whether to conduct a full review or an expedited review. The Commission’s determination in any expedited review will be based on the facts available, which may include information provided in response to this notice. Definitions.—The following definitions apply to this review: (1) Subject Merchandise is the class or kind of merchandise that is within the scope of these five-year reviews, as defined by the Department of Commerce. (2) The Subject Countries in these reviews are Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. (3) The Domestic Like Product is the domestically produced product or products which are like, or in the absence of like, most similar in characteristics and uses with, the Subject Merchandise. In its original and full first and second and third five-year review determinations, the Commission found one Domestic Like Product consisting of all stainless steel wire rod corresponding to Commerce’s scope. (4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. producers as a whole of the Domestic Like Product, or those producers whose collective output of the Domestic Like Product constitutes a major proportion of the total domestic production of the product. In its original and full first, second, and third five-year review determinations, the Commission defined the Domestic Industry as consisting of all domestic producers of stainless steel wire rod. (5) An Importer is any person or firm engaged, either directly or through a parent company or subsidiary, in importing the Subject Merchandise into the United States from a foreign manufacturer or through its selling agent. Participation in the proceeding and public service list.—Persons, including industrial users of the Subject Merchandise and, if the merchandise is sold at the retail level, representative consumer organizations, wishing to participate in the proceeding as parties must file an entry of appearance with the Secretary to the Commission, as provided in § 201.11(b)(4) of the Commission’s rules, no later than 21 days after publication of this notice in the Federal Register. The Secretary will maintain a public service list containing the names and addresses of all persons, or their representatives, who are parties to the proceeding. Former Commission employees who are seeking to appear in Commission five-year reviews are advised that they may appear in a review even if they participated personally and substantially in the corresponding underlying original investigation or an earlier review of the same underlying investigation. The Commission’s designated agency ethics official has advised that a five-year review is not the same particular matter as the underlying original investigation, and a five-year review is not the same particular matter as an earlier review of the same underlying investigation for purposes of 18 U.S.C. 207, the post-employment statute for Federal employees, and Commission rule 201.15(b) (19 CFR 201.15(b)), 79 FR 3246 (Jan. 17, 2014), 73 FR 24609 (May 5, 2008). Consequently, former employees are not required to seek Commission approval to appear in a review under Commission rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the corresponding underlying original investigation or an earlier review of the same underlying investigation was pending when they were Commission employees. For further ethics advice on this matter, contact Charles Smith, Office of the General Counsel, at 202– 205–3408. Limited disclosure of business proprietary information (BPI) under an administrative protective order (APO) and APO service list.—Pursuant to § 207.7(a) of the Commission’s rules, the Secretary will make BPI submitted in this proceeding available to authorized applicants under the APO issued in the proceeding, provided that the application is made no later than 21 days after publication of this notice in the Federal Register. Authorized applicants must represent interested parties, as defined in 19 U.S.C. 1677(9), who are parties to the proceeding. A separate service list will be maintained by the Secretary for those parties authorized to receive BPI under the APO. Certification.—Pursuant to § 207.3 of the Commission’s rules, any person submitting information to the Commission in connection with this proceeding must certify that the information is accurate and complete to the best of the submitter’s knowledge. In making the certification, the submitter will acknowledge that information submitted in response to this request for information and throughout this proceeding or other proceeding may be VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:45 Jun 30, 2021 Jkt 253001 PO 00000 Frm 00067 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\01JYN1.SGM 01JYN1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 35126 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 124 / Thursday, July 1, 2021 / Notices disclosed to and used: (i) By the Commission, its employees and Offices, and contract personnel (a) for developing or maintaining the records of this or a related proceeding, or (b) in internal investigations, audits, reviews, and evaluations relating to the programs, personnel, and operations of the Commission including under 5 U.S.C.

(Universal) (collectively, domestic interested parties). relationships; and (4) customer base.8 While no single factor or combination of factors will necessarily provide a dispositive indication of a successor-in- interest relationship, generally, Commerce will consider the new company to be the successor to the previous company if the new company’s resulting operation is not materially dissimilar to that of its predecessor.9 Thus, if the record evidence demonstrates that, with respect to the production and sale of the subject merchandise, the new company operates as the same business entity as the predecessor company, Commerce may assign the new company the cash deposit rate of its predecessor. 10 We preliminarily determine that Huahui Environmental is the successor- in-interest to Ningxia Huahui. Record evidence, as submitted by Huahui Environmental, indicates that Huahui Environmental operates as essentially the same business entity as Ningxia Huahui with respect to the subject merchandise. 11 For the complete successor-in-interest analysis, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Should our final results remain unchanged from these preliminary results, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assign entries of subject merchandise exported by Huahui Environmental the AD cash deposit rate applicable to Ningxia Huahui (i.e., 0.65 U.S. dollars/kilogram). Commerce will issue its final results of the review in accordance with the time limits set forth in 19 CFR 351.216(e). Public Comment Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), any interested party may request a hearing within 14 days of publication of this notice.12 In accordance with 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii), interested parties may submit case briefs not later than 14 days after the date of publication of this notice. 13 Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed no later than seven days after the deadline for case briefs, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.309(d). 14 Parties who submit case or rebuttal briefs are encouraged to submit with each argument: (1) A statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the argument; and (3) a table of authorities.15 All comments are to be filed electronically using ACCESS, available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov, and must also be served on interested parties. An electronically filed document must be received successfully in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the day it is due.16 Note that Commerce has temporarily modified certain requirements for serving documents containing business proprietary information, until further notice.17 Consistent with 19 CFR 351.216(e), Commerce will issue the final results of this CCR no later than 270 days after the date on which this review was initiated, or within 45 days of publication of these preliminary results, if all parties agree to the preliminary finding.

SUMMARY : The Department of Commerce (Commerce) seeks public comment on any subsidies, including stumpage subsidies, provided by certain countries exporting softwood lumber or softwood lumber products to the United States during the period January 1, 2021, through June 30, 2021. DATES : Comments must be submitted within 30 days after publication of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background Pursuant to section 805 of Title VIII of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Softwood Lumber Act of 2008), the Secretary of Commerce is mandated to submit to the appropriate Congressional committees a report every 180 days on any subsidy provided by countries exporting softwood lumber or softwood lumber products to the United States, including stumpage subsidies. Commerce submitted its last subsidy report to the Congress on June 30, 2021. Request for Comments Given the large number of countries that export softwood lumber and softwood lumber products to the United States, we are soliciting public comment only on subsidies provided by countries which had exports accounting for at least one percent of total U.S. imports of softwood lumber by quantity, as classified under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) codes 4407.1001, 4407.1100, 4407.1200, 4407.1905, 4407.1906, 4407.1910, during the period January 1, 2021, through June 30, 2021.

On September 29, 2020, the CIT remanded for Commerce to explain or reconsider its finding of a particular market situation (PMS) in the Korean market for the hot-rolled coil input and its application of a PMS adjustment to the respondents’ cost of production (COP). 3 On December 22, 2020, Commerce issued the First Remand Results, in which, under protest, it determined that there is no PMS that distorts the COP of HWR and recalculated the weighted- average dumping margin for DOSCO without the PMS adjustment to the COP for the sales-below-cost test. 4 As a result, Commerce calculated a revised weighted-average dumping margin for DOSCO of 11.00 percent. Moreover, as a result of Commerce’s recalculation of the weighted-average dumping margin for DOSCO, Commerce revised the review-specific average rate applied to Kukje Steel to 7.89 percent. On June 24, 2021, the CIT sustained Commerce’s Final Remand Results. 5 Timken Notice In its decision in Timken,6 as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,7 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant to section 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), Commerce must publish a notice of a court decision that is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with a Commerce determination and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a ‘‘conclusive’’ court decision.8 The CIT’s June 24, 2021 judgment in this case constitutes a final decision of that court that is not in harmony with Commerce’s Final Results. This notice is published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken. Amended Final Results Because there is now a final court decision, Commerce is amending its Final Results with respect to the weighted-average dumping margins for DOSCO and Kukje Steel.9 The revised weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: Exporter/producer Weighted- average dumping margin (percent) Dong A-Steel Company ........ 11.00 Kukje Steel Co., Ltd ............. 7.89 Cash Deposit Requirements Because DOSCO and Kukje Steel have a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been final results published in a subsequent administrative review, we will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This notice will not affect the current cash deposit rate. Liquidation of Suspended Entries During the pendency of litigation, including any appeal, Commerce remains enjoined by Court order from liquidating entries: (1) Produced and/or exported by Dong-A Steel Company or Kukje Steel Co., Ltd.; (2) the subject of the Final Results; (3) entered, or were withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after March 1, 2016, up to and including August 27, 2016, and on or after September 12, 2016, up to and including August 31, 2017; and (4) remain unliquidated as of the date the Court issued the applicable statutory injunction. These entries will remain enjoined pursuant to the terms of the injunction during the pendency of any appeals process. In the event that the CIT’s final judgment is not appealed or, if appealed, is upheld by a final and conclusive court decision, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by DOSCO and Kukje Steel, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b) and the Final Remand Results. We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer- specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis. Where an import-specific ad valorem assessment rate is zero or de minimis,10 we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Consistent with Commerce’s assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by DOSCO or Kukje Steel for which they did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.11 Notification to Interested Parties This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 516A(c) and (e) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

[FR Doc. 2021–14111 Filed 6–30–21; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510–DS–P DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Draft Revised Management Plan for the Mission-Aransas National Estuarine Research Reserve AGENCY : Office for Coastal Management (OCM), National Ocean Service (NOS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC). ACTION : Request for comments on draft revised management plan. SUMMARY : The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is soliciting comments from the public regarding a proposed revision of the management plan for the Mission- Aransas National Estuarine Research Reserve. The management plan provides a framework for the direction and timing of a reserve’s programs; allows reserve managers to assess a reserve’s success in meeting its goals and to identify any necessary changes in direction; and is used to guide programmatic evaluations of the reserve. Plan revisions are required of each reserve in the National Estuarine Research Reserve System at least every five years. This revised plan is intended to replace the plan approved in 2015. DATES : Comments must be received on or before August 2, 2021. ADDRESSES : Comments may be submitted by: • Electronic Submission: Submit all electronic public comments by email to matt.chasse@noaa.gov and jace.tunnell@austin.utexas.edu. Include ‘‘Comments on draft Mission-Aransas Management Plan’’ in the subject line of the message. Instructions: The draft revised management plan can be downloaded or viewed at: http://missionaransas.org/ about/management-plan. The document is also available by sending a written request to the point of contact identified below under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : Matt Chasse, NOAA Office for Coastal Management, matt.chasse@noaa.gov, or 410–570–1020. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background Pursuant to 15 CFR 921.33(c), a state must revise the management plan for the research reserve at least every five years. If approved by NOAA, the Mission-Aransas Reserve’s revised plan will replace the plan previously approved in 2015. The draft revised management plan outlines strategic goals and objectives and the administrative structure, as well as programs or plans for conducting research and environmental monitoring, education, and training; volunteer management, communications, and resource protection; public access and visitor use; restoration and resource manipulation; and considerations for future land acquisition and facility development to support reserve operations. In particular, this draft plan describes how reserve programs will address specific goals. These goals include the advancement and dissemination of scientific knowledge about Texas coastal ecosystems; increasing the understanding, appreciation, and stewardship of coastal ecosystems; the conservation, protection, and restoration of Texas coastal habitats and wildlife; establishing and nurturing partnerships to promote and advance coastal research, management, and community resiliency and literacy; recognition of staff and volunteer contributions; and maintaining strong facilities that build capacity and enrich programs. The revised management plan builds upon past successes and accomplishments and is designed to address specific priority coastal management issues. The priority issues for research and monitoring include marine debris, industrial growth impacts, eDNA, freshwater inflow, biological monitoring, and sea level rise and coastal subsidence. For education and training, priorities to be addressed include connecting children and nature; outdoor education programming, climate change and its effects on coastal environments; coastal ecology and habitat diversity; marine debris and its impacts on the coastal environment; and stewardship of estuarine and coastal resources. These issues align with the 2017–2022 National Estuarine Research Reserve System’s strategic plan. Since its inception, this reserve has engaged in strategic partnerships with its land managing partners and others based on mutual interests. These partnerships are expected to be maintained or expanded through the revised management plan including reserve administration of the Amos Rehabilitation Keep (ARK), providing animal rehabilitation services for species endemic to the estuary. The reserve is also planning to maintain and improve reserve facilities including Fennessey Ranch, the Bay Education Center, the ARK, and the Patton Marine Science Education Center. Additionally, no boundaries changes are incorporated into the revised management plan. The revised management plan, once approved, would serve as the guiding document for the 186,189-acre research reserve for the next five years. NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management analyzes the environmental impacts of the proposed approval of this draft revised management plan in accordance with section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C), and the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations for Implementing the Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40 CFR 1500–1508). The public is invited to comment on the draft revised management plan. NOAA will take these comments into consideration in deciding whether to approve the draft revised management plan in whole or in part. Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1451 et seq.; 15 CFR 921.33. Keelin S. Kuipers, Deputy Director, Office for Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Active order issued from this investigation
Investigation 731-TA-771 is a U.S. International Trade Commission antidumping (AD) proceeding on Stainless Steel Wire Rod from Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan; Inv. No. 731-TA-771-772 and 775 (Review 4) from Japan, South Korea, Taiwan. The ITC determines whether U.S. industry is materially injured (or threatened) by imports under investigation; Commerce determines whether dumping or subsidization is occurring. Both findings are required for an AD/CVD order to be issued.
731-TA-771 is in the review phase, with status completed. Review phase — typically a sunset review (every 5 years) to determine whether revoking the order would lead to recurrence of dumping/injury. Affirmative findings keep the order in force; negative findings revoke it.
Yes — investigation 731-TA-771 resulted in AD/CVD case A-580-829. The linked order page on this catalog has the active deposit rate, scope text, and Federal Register citation.
