SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 12, 2017, the Department
initiated LTFV investigations of imports
of biodiesel from Argentina and
Indonesia.1 The period of investigation
for each investigation is January 1, 2016,
through December 31, 2016. On October
31, 2017, the Department published its
Preliminary Determination in each of
these LTFV investigations.2
Postponement of Final Determinations
Section 735(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(2) provide that a final
determination may be postponed until
not later than 135 days after the date of
the publication of the preliminary
determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a
request for such postponement is made
by the exporters or producers who
account for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise, or in
the event of a negative preliminary
determination, a request for such
postponement is made by the
petitioners. Further, 19 CFR
351.210(e)(2) requires that such
postponement requests by exporters be
accompanied by a request for extension
of provisional meausres from a fourmonth period to a period of not more
than six months, in accordance with
section 733(d) of the Act.

respondents in the Indonesia
investigation, requested that the
Department postpone the deadline for
the final determination until no later
than 135 days from the publication of
the Indonesia Preliminary
Determination, and extend the
application of the provisional measures
from a four-month period to a period of
not more than six months.3 In
November 2017, Camara Argentina de
Biocombustibles (CARBIO) and LDC
Argentina S.A. (LDC), the mandatory
respondents in the Argentina
investigation, requested that the
Department postpone the deadline for
the final determination until no later
than 135 days from the publication of
the Argentina Preliminary
Determination, and extend the
application of the provisional measures
from a four-month period to a period of
not more than six months.4
In accordance with section
735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(2)(ii), because (1) each
preliminary determination was
affirmative; (2) the requests in each
investigation were made by the
exporters and producers who account
for a significant proportion of exports of
the subject merchandise from the
country at issue; and (3) no compelling
reasons for denials exist, the
Department is postponing the final
determination in each investigation
until no later than 107 days after the
date of the publication of the relevant
preliminary determination, and
extending the provisional measures
from a four-month period to a period of
not more than six months. Accordingly,
the Department will issue its final
determination in each investigation no
later than February 15, 2018.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(g).

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Alaska License Limitation
Program for Groundfish, Crab, and
Scallops.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0334.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (revision
and extension of a currently approved
information collection).
Number of Respondents: 49.
Average Hours per Response:
Transfers, 1 hour; appeals, 4 hours.
Burden Hours: 52.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
extension of a current information
collection.
The License Limitation Program (LLP)
restricts access to the commercial
groundfish fisheries, commercial crab
fisheries, and commercial scallop
fisheries in the Exclusive Economic
Zone off Alaska except for certain areas
where alternative programs exist. The
intended effect of the LLP is to limit the
number of participants and reduce
fishing capacity in fisheries off Alaska.
For a vessel designated on an LLP
license, the LLP license authorizes the
type of fishing gear that may be used by
the vessel, the maximum size of the
vessel, an area endorsement, and
whether the vessel may catch and
process fish at sea or if it is limited to
delivering catch without at-sea
processing. LLP licenses that allow
vessels to catch and process at-sea are
assigned a catcher/processor
endorsement. LLP licenses specify the
maximum length overall (MLOA) of the
vessel to which that LLP license may be
assigned. The LLP may also include a
species endorsement for Pacific cod in
the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands
management area (BSAI) and Gulf of
Alaska (GOA).
An LLP license is required for vessels
participating in directed fishing for LLP
groundfish species in the BSAI or GOA,
or fishing in any BSAI LLP crab
fisheries. An LLP license is also
required for any vessel deployed in
scallop fisheries in Federal waters off
Alaska (except for some diving
operations).

The objective of the survey will be to
understand divers’ and snorkelers’
expenditures associated with
recreational coral reef diving activities
in Hawaii. The survey will also collect
information on divers’ attitudes,
preferences, and concerns about
recreational diving and coral reefs
health in Hawaii. We are conducting
this survey to improve our
understanding of divers’ expenditure
patterns and to estimate the economic
impact of coral reef related spending.
Results of the survey will be used to
inform coastal resource management
planning and establish a baseline for
outreach and education. The
expenditure survey is also expected to
provide useful information for local
economic and business interests. A
similar survey (OMB 0648–0746) was
implemented in south Florida and was
successfully completed in Nov. 2017.
