determining whether it is eligible for a
separate rate. The review of the exporter
will proceed if the response provides
sufficient indication that the exporter is
not subject to either de jure or de facto
government control with respect to its
exports of mattresses.
We intend to conduct this NSR in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of
the Act.15 Because Sunbeauty certified
that it exported subject merchandise,
the sale of which is the basis for its NSR
request, Commerce will instruct CBP to
continue to suspend liquidation of all
entries of subject merchandise exported
by Sunbeauty. To assist in its analysis
of the bona fide nature of Sunbeauty’s
sale(s), upon initiation of this NSR,
Commerce will require Sunbeauty to
submit, on an ongoing basis, complete
transaction information concerning any
sales of subject merchandise to the
United States that were made
subsequent to the POR.
Interested parties requiring access to
proprietary information in this NSR
should submit applications for
disclosure under administrative
protective order in accordance with 19
CFR 351.305 and 351.306. This
initiation notice is published in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and
351.221(c)(1)(i).

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

I. Abstract
Under the provisions of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), the National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) is responsible
for management of the Nation’s marine
fisheries. NMFS must also promulgate
regulations, as necessary and
appropriate, to carry out obligations the
United States (U.S.) undertakes
internationally regarding tuna
management through the Atlantic Tunas
Convention Act (ATCA, 16 U.S.C. 971 et
seq.).
This collection serves as a family of
forms for Atlantic highly migratory
species (HMS) dealer reporting,
including purchases of HMS from
domestic fishermen, and the import,
export, and/or re-export of HMS,
including federally managed tunas,
sharks, and swordfish.
Transactions covered under this
collection include purchases of Atlantic
HMS from domestic fishermen; and the
import/export of all bluefin tuna, frozen
bigeye tuna, southern bluefin tuna or
swordfish under the HMS International
Trade Program, regardless of geographic
area of origin. This information is used
to monitor the harvest of domestic
fisheries, and/or track international
trade of internationally managed

SUMMARY:

15 The Act was amended by the Trade Facilitation
and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 which removed
from section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act the provision
directing Commerce to instruct CBP to allow an
importer the option of posting a bond or security
in lieu of a cash deposit during the pendency of an
NSR.

species. We are currently revising this
information collection to implement
mandatory electronic, web-based
reporting to replace the downloadable
hard copy forms currently used for
biweekly bluefin dealer reporting and
international trade reporting of bluefin
tuna, swordfish, and frozen bigeye tuna.
No other changes in the reporting
program are being implemented at this
time, and no significant changes in the
number of responses or burden
estimates are anticipated aside from
removal of postage costs for returning
the completed forms by mail.
The domestic dealer reporting
covered by this collection includes
weekly electronic landing reports and
negative reports (i.e., reports of no
activity) of Atlantic swordfish, sharks,
bigeye tuna, albacore, yellowfin, and
skipjack tunas (collectively referred to
as BAYS tunas), and electronic biweekly
and daily landing reports for bluefin
tuna, including tagging of individual
fish. Because of the individual bluefin
quota (IBQ) management system (RIN
0648–BC09), electronic entry of IBQrelated landing data is required for
Atlantic bluefin tuna purchased from
Longline and Purse seine category
vessels.
International trade tracking programs
are required by both the International
Commission for the Conservation of
Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) and the InterAmerican Tropical Tuna Commission
(IATTC) to account for all international
trade of covered species. The United
States is a member of ICCAT and IATTC
and required by ATCA and the Tunas
Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 951 et. seq.,
consecutively) to promulgate
regulations as necessary and appropriate
to implement ICCAT and IATTC
recommendations. These programs
require that a statistical document or
catch document accompany each export
from and import to a member nation,
and that a re-export certificate
accompany each re-export. The
international trade reporting
requirements covered by this collection
include implementation of catch
documents, statistical documents, and
re-export certificate trade tracking
programs for bluefin tuna, frozen bigeye
tuna, and swordfish. An electronic catch
document program for bluefin tuna
(EBCD) was recommended by ICCAT
and implemented by the United States
in 2016 (0648–BF17). United States
regulations implementing ICCAT
statistical document and catch
document programs require statistical
documents and catch documents for
international transactions of the covered
species from all ocean areas, so Pacific
imports and exports must also be

E:\FR\FM\31JYN1.SGM

31JYN1

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 148 / Friday, July 31, 2020 / Notices
accompanied by statistical documents
and catch documents. Since there are
statistical document programs in place
under other international conventions
(e.g., the Indian Ocean Tuna
Commission), a statistical document or
catch document from another program
may be used to satisfy the statistical
document requirement for imports into
the United States.
Dealers who internationally trade
Southern bluefin tuna are required to
participate in a trade tracking program
to ensure that imported Atlantic and
Pacific bluefin tuna will not be
intentionally mislabeled as ‘‘southern
bluefin’’ to circumvent reporting
requirements. This action is authorized
under ATCA, which provides for the
promulgation of regulations as may be
necessary and appropriate to carry out
ICCAT recommendations.
In addition to statistical document,
catch document, and re-export
certificate requirements, this collection
includes biweekly reports to
complement trade tracking statistical
documents by summarizing statistical
document data and collecting additional
economic information.
