collection request was published on
December 11, 2019 (84 FR 67753). No
comments were received.
BOEM is again soliciting comments
on the proposed ICR that is described
below. BOEM is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection
necessary to the proper functions of
BOEM; (2) what can BOEM do to ensure
this information will be processed and
used in a timely manner; (3) is the
estimate of burden accurate; (4) how
might BOEM enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (5) how might BOEM
minimize the burden of this collection
on the respondents, including
minimizing the burden through the use
of information technology?
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. You should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information—may be made publicly
available at any time. In order for BOEM
to withhold from disclosure your
personally identifiable information, you
must identify any information contained
in the submittal of your comments that,
if released, would clearly constitute an
unwarranted invasion of your personal
privacy. You must also briefly describe
any possible harmful consequences of
the disclosure of your information, such
as embarrassment, injury, or other harm.
While you can ask BOEM in your
comment to withhold your personally
identifiable information from public
review, BOEM cannot guarantee that it
will be able to do so.
BOEM protects proprietary
information in accordance with the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
552) and the Department of the
Interior’s implementing regulations (43
CFR part 2).
Abstract: Under the authority
delegated by the Secretary of the
Interior, BOEM is authorized, pursuant
to section 8(k)(2) of the OCS Lands Act
(43 U.S.C. 1337(k)(2)), to convey rights
to OCS sand, gravel, and shell resources
by negotiated noncompetitive agreement
(NNA) for use in shore protection and
beach and coastal restoration, or for use
in construction projects funded in
whole or part by, or authorized by, the
Federal Government.
Since the beginning of 2017, BOEM
has processed 17 negotiated agreements
and amendments to existing agreements.
In order for BOEM to continue to meet
the needs of locals and state
governments, information regarding
upcoming projects must be acquired to
plan for future projects and anticipated

workload. Therefore, BOEM will issue
calls for information about needed
resources and locations from interested
parties to develop and maintain a
project schedule. BOEM may also issue
calls for information in response to an
emergency declaration, such as a
hurricane or tropical storm. This ICR
has no significant changes from the
2017 OMB approved information
collection.
In the event the number of requested
projects exceeds the limits of the current
BOEM staff and funding resources,
BOEM may request the relevant states to
prioritize their own projects based on
several criteria including likelihood of
project funding and progress of
environmental work. BOEM will use
this information to determine
appropriate future resource allocations,
identify potential conflicts of use,
develop NNAs, and meet all necessary
environmental and legal requirements.
BOEM will publish all ongoing projects
on the website http://www.boem.gov/
Requests-and-Active-Leases/.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The United States
International Trade Commission
(Commission) provides notice that, to
address concerns related to COVID–19,
it is temporarily waiving and amending
certain of the Commission’s rules that
permit participants to appear in-person
to give oral presentations, written
witness testimony, or statements at
antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/
CVD) preliminary phase conferences,
and final phase investigation and fiveyear review hearings held under Title
VII of the Tariff Act of 1930.
DATES: Immediately and until further
notice.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: You

Barton, Secretary to the Commission,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
201.4(b) of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR
201.4(b)) permits the Commission to
amend, waive, suspend, or revoke
Commission rules for ‘‘good and
sufficient reason’’ if the rule is not a
matter of procedure required by law.
The procedures permitting participants
to make oral statements or
presentations, or submit written witness
testimony, at AD/CVD proceedings are
not procedures required by law.
Therefore, to address concerns related to
COVID–19, the Commission has
determined that there is good and
sufficient reason to waive and amend
certain Commission rules. This rule
waiver and amendment is effective

immediately and until further notice,
which will be provided in a subsequent
Federal Register notice. Waiver and
amendment of these rules will mitigate
disruption to Title VII investigations
while the USITC building is closed.
Specifically, the Commission
temporarily waives the provisions of
Rules 201.13(f) and (h), 207.15, and
207.24(b) (19 CFR 201.13(f) and (h),
207.15, and 207.24(b)) that require or
permit participants to submit
presentations, statements, and written
witness testimony at in-person AD/CVD
conferences and hearings.
The Commission has approved the
temporary amendment of Rule 207.24(b)
(19 CFR 207.24(b)) to permit parties to
submit written presentations and
written witness testimony, and to
permit nonparties to submit brief
written statements. The Commission has
also approved the temporary
amendment of Rule 207.15 (19 CFR
207.15) to instruct each party to provide
written witness testimony in accordance
with the schedule and instructions
specified by the Director or presiding
official. All such filings shall comply
with the procedures set forth in the
Commission’s Electronic Document
Information System website at https://
