Assessment

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of certain tin mill products from
Japan. Antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends
to issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a reminder to
importers of their responsibility under
19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in
Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder
to all parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written
notification of the return/destruction of
APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and terms of an APO is a violation
which is subject to sanction.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).
Dated: November 5, 2020.
James Maeder,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Operations.

Data Reports
The Department of Commerce will
submit the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication
of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on July 23,
2020, (85 FR 44520) during a 60-day
comment period. This notice allows for
an additional 30 days for public
comments.
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Highly Migratory Species (HMS)
Vessel Logbooks and Cost-Earnings Data
Reports.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0371.
Form Number(s): 88–191.
Type of Request: Regular.
Number of Respondents: 5,513.
Average Hours per Response: 10
minutes for cost/earnings summaries
attached to logbook reports, 30 minutes
for annual expenditure forms, 12
minutes for logbook catch trip and set
reports, 2 minutes for negative logbook
catch reports.
Burden Hours: 21,304.
Needs and Uses: NMFS collects
information via vessel logbooks to
monitor the U.S. catch of Atlantic
swordfish, sharks, billfish, and tunas in
relation to the quotas, thereby ensuring
that the United States complies with its
domestic and international obligations.
The HMS logbook program, OMB
Control No. 0648–0371, was specifically
designed to collect the vessel level
information needed for the management
of Atlantic HMS, and includes set
forms, trip forms, negative reports, and
cost-earning requirements for both
commercial and recreational vessels.
The information supplied through the
HMS logbook program provides the
catch and effort data on a per-set or pertrip level of resolution for both directed

and incidental species. In addition to
HMS fisheries, the HMS logbook
program is also used to report catches of
dolphin and wahoo by commercial and
charter/headboat fisheries by vessels
that do not possess other federal
permits. Additionally, the HMS logbook
collects data on incidental species,
including sea turtles, which is necessary
to evaluate the fisheries in terms of
bycatch and encounters with protected
species. While most HMS fishermen use
the HMS logbook program, HMS can
also be reported as part of several other
logbook collections including the
Northeast Region Fishing Vessel Trip
Reports (0648–0212) and Southeast
Region Coastal Logbook (0648–0016).
These data are necessary to assess the
status of HMS, dolphin, and wahoo in
each fishery. International stock
assessments for tunas, swordfish,
billfish, and some species of sharks are
conducted through ICCAT’s Standing
Committee on Research and Statistics
periodically and provide, in part, the
basis for ICCAT management
recommendations which become
binding on member nations. Domestic
stock assessments for most species of
sharks and for dolphin and wahoo are
used as the basis of managing these
species.
Supplementary information on fishing
costs and earnings has been collected
via the HMS logbook program. This
economic information enables NMFS to
assess the economic impacts of
regulatory programs on small businesses
and fishing communities, consistent
with the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA), Executive Order 12866, the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, and other
domestic laws.
Atlantic HMS fisheries are managed
under the dual authority of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(MSA) and the Atlantic Tunas
Conservation Act (ATCA). Under the
MSA, management measures must be
consistent with ten National Standards,
and fisheries must be managed to
maintain optimum yield, rebuild
overfished fisheries, and prevent
overfishing. Under ATCA, the Secretary
of Commerce shall promulgate
regulations, as necessary and
appropriate, to implement measures
adopted by the International
Commission for the Conservation of
Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT).
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit organizations (vessel owners).
Frequency: Trip summary reports are
submitted within 7 days following the
completion of each fishing trip, trip
cost-earnings reports are due within 30
days of trip completion, no catch/

harassment authorization (IHA) that was
issued on August 28, 2020. This initial
IHA allowed Dominion to take nine
species of marine mammals, by Level B
harassment, incidental to marine site
characterization surveys conducted in
the areas of the Commercial Lease of
Submerged Lands for Renewable Energy
Development on the Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) Offshore Virginia (Lease No.
OCS–A–0483) as well as in coastal
waters where an export cable corridor
will be established in support of the
Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind
Commercial (CVOW Commercial)
Project. Dominion was recording take of
Atlantic spotted dolphin (Stenella
frontalis) by Level B harassment at a rate
that would exceed the authorized limit
on this species and therefore, NMFS is
proposing to modify the IHA to increase
authorized take by Level B harassment
of spotted dolphin. The mitigation,
monitoring, and reporting measures
remain the same as prescribed in the
initial IHA and no additional take was
requested for other species. NMFS will
consider public comments on the
requested modification prior to making
any final decision and agency responses
will be summarized in the final notice
of our decision.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain
exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce
(as delegated to NMFS) to allow, upon
request, the incidental, but not
intentional, taking of small numbers of
marine mammals by U.S. citizens who
engage in a specified activity (other than
commercial fishing) within a specified
geographical region if certain findings
are made and either regulations are
issued or, if the taking is limited to
harassment, a notice of a proposed
incidental take authorization may be
provided to the public for review.
Authorization for incidental takings
shall be granted if NMFS finds that the
taking will have a negligible impact on
the species or stock(s) and will not have
an unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
taking for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe
the permissible methods of taking and
other ‘‘means of effecting the least
practicable adverse impact’’ on the
affected species or stocks and their
habitat, paying particular attention to
rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of
similar significance, and on the
availability of such species or stocks for
taking for certain subsistence uses
(referred to in shorthand as
‘‘mitigation’’); and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such takings are set
forth.
History of Request
On February 7, 2020, NMFS received
a request from Dominion for an IHA to
take marine mammals incidental to
marine site characterization surveys in
the areas of the Commercial Lease of
Submerged Lands for Renewable Energy
Development on the OCS Offshore
Virginia (Lease No. OCS–A–0483) as
well as in coastal waters where an
export cable corridor will be established
in support of the offshore wind project.
Dominion’s planned marine site
characterization surveys include high-
