Affirmative Determination of Critical
Circumstances, 79 FR 42501, 42503 (July 22, 2014)
(‘‘Grain-Oriented Electrical Steel from Germany,
Japan, and Poland’’). This determination defines
grain-oriented electrical steel as ‘‘a flat-rolled alloy
steel product containing by weight at least 0.6
percent but not more than 6 percent of silicon, not
more than 0.08 percent of carbon, not more than 1.0
percent of aluminum, and no other element in an

71742 (December 3, 2014) (‘‘Non-Oriented Electrical
Steel from the People’s Republic of China,
Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Sweden,
and Taiwan’’). The orders define NOES as ‘‘coldrolled, flat-rolled, alloy steel products, whether or
not in coils, regardless of width, having an actual
thickness of 0.20 mm or more, in which the core
loss is substantially equal in any direction of
magnetization in the plane of the material. The term
‘substantially equal’ means that the cross grain
direction of core loss is no more than 1.5 times the
straight grain direction (i.e., the rolling direction) of
core loss. NOES has a magnetic permeability that
does not exceed 1.65 Tesla when tested at a field
of 800 A/m (equivalent to 10 Oersteds) along (i.e.,
parallel to) the rolling direction of the sheet (i.e.,
B800 value). NOES contains by weight more than
1.00 percent of silicon but less than 3.5 percent of
silicon, not more than 0.08 percent of carbon, and
not more than 1.5 percent of aluminum. NOES has
a surface oxide coating, to which an insulation
coating may be applied.’’

The Chesapeake Bay Watershed
Agreement of 2014 requires monitoring
of progress towards the environmental
literacy goal: ‘‘Enable students in the
region to graduate with the knowledge
and skills needed to act responsibly to
protect and restore their local
watersheds.’’ The National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
on behalf of the Chesapeake Bay
Program, will ask the state education
agencies for Maryland, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, and
the District of Columbia to survey their
local education agencies (LEAs) to
determine: (1) LEA capacity to
implement a comprehensive and
systemic approach to environmental
literacy education, (2) student
participation in Meaningful Watershed
Educational Experiences during the
school year, (3) sustainability practices
at schools, and (4) LEA needs for
improving environmental literacy
education programming. LEAs
(generally school districts, in some cases
charter school administration) are asked
to complete the survey on the status of
their LEA on a set of key indicators for
the four areas listed above. One
individual from each LEA is asked to
complete this survey once every two

Atlantic Highly Migratory Species;
Exempted Fishing Permits
National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice; request for comments.
AGENCY:

On November 16, 2016,
NMFS published a Notice of Intent
(NOI) announcing our intent to issue
exempted fishing permits (EFPs),
scientific research permits (SRPs),
letters of acknowledgement (LOAs), and
display permits for research regarding
highly migratory species (HMS) in 2017.
In the NOI, NMFS requested comments
regarding the issuance of EFPs and
LOAs for HMS research. In general,
EFPs and related permits would
authorize collection of a limited number
of tunas, swordfish, billfishes, and
sharks from Federal waters in the
Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf
of Mexico for the purposes of scientific
data collection and public display.
Comments were accepted on the NOI
until December 16, 2016, and many of
the comments received were related to
white shark research and the need to
provide additional opportunity for
public review of such research before
permits are issued. In this notice, NMFS
summarizes public comments received
on the initial NOI, and announces the
receipt of applications for permits under
the EFP program to conduct research on
white sharks during 2017. NMFS invites
additional public comment on these
requests.

SUMMARY:

Written comments must be
received on or before April 3, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be
submitted by either of the following
methods:
• Email: nmfs.hms.efp2017@
noaa.gov. Include in the subject line the
following identifier: 0648–XE943.
• Mail: Craig Cockrell, Highly
Migratory Species Management Division
(F/SF1), NMFS, 1315 East-West
Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Craig Cockrell at (301) 427–8503. The
comments received on the NOI that
published in November 2016, the
Federal Register notice, and the
applications for EFPs received to date
may be found on the HMS Management
Division’s Web site at: http://
