information from public review, we

Abstract: The Secretary of the Interior
is authorized to ensure that we provide
opportunities within the Service for
compatible wildlife-dependent
recreational uses across the National
Wildlife Refuge System (System).
Furthermore, the Secretary is authorized
to award concessions contracts under
the following Acts:
• The National Wildlife Refuge
System Administration Act of 1966
(Administration Act, 16 U.S.C. 668dd–
668ee), as amended by the National
Wildlife Refuge System Improvement
Act of 1997, authorizes the Secretary of
the Interior to negotiate and award
contracts and issue regulations to carry
out the Act.
• The Refuge Recreation Act of 1962
(16 U.S.C.–460k–460k–3) allows the use
of refuges for public recreation when
such use is not inconsistent with or
does not interfere with the primary
purpose(s) of the refuge.
• The Refuge Revenue Sharing Act
(16 U.S.C. 715s) authorizes the Secretary
to grant privileges and collect revenues
from leases for public accommodations
or facilities established for the System.
Specifically, the Administration Act
provides that, with respect to the Refuge
System, it is the policy of the United
States that—
a. Each refuge shall be managed to
fulfill the mission of the System, as well
as the specific purposes for which that
refuge was established;
b. Compatible wildlife-dependent
recreation is a legitimate and
appropriate general public use of the
System, directly related to the mission
of the System and the purposes of many
refuges, and which generally fosters
refuge management and through which
the American public can develop an
appreciation for fish and wildlife;
c. Compatible wildlife-dependent
recreational uses are the priority general
public uses of the System and shall
receive priority consideration in refuge
planning and management; and
d. When the Secretary determines that
a proposed wildlife-dependent
recreational use is a compatible use
within a refuge, that activity should be
facilitated, subject to such restrictions or
regulations as may be necessary,
reasonable, and appropriate.
The Administration Act also provides
that, in administering the Refuge
System, the Secretary shall—
a. Recognize compatible wildlifedependent recreational uses as the
priority general public uses of the
System, through which the American

33194

jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES

public can develop an appreciation for
fish and wildlife;
b. Ensure that opportunities are
provided within the System for
compatible wildlife-dependent
recreational uses;
c. Ensure that priority general public
uses of the System receive enhanced
consideration over other general public
uses in planning and management
within the System; and
d. Provide increased opportunities for
families to experience compatible
wildlife-dependent recreation,
particularly opportunities for parents
and their children to safely engage in
traditional outdoor activities, such as
fishing and hunting.
Private businesses and non-profit
organization under contract to the
Service provide recreational,
educational, and interpretive enjoyment
of our lands and waters by managing
lodging, food, transportation, and
supplies and equipment for the
enjoyment of the visiting public. These
services gross approximately $3,000,000
every year and provide jobs for more
than 100 people annually.
The regulations at 50 CFR subpart F
(§ 25.61) primarily implement the
authorities governing public use
facilities operated by concessionaires or
cooperators under appropriate contact
or legal agreement on national wildlife
refuges where there is a demonstrated
justified need for services or facilities,
including but not limited to boat rentals,
swimming facilities, conducted tours of
special natural attractions, shelters,
tables, trailer lots, food, lodging, and
related service.
Service Manual chapters 630 FW 4–6
discuss the Service’s current policy for
concession management and provide
guidance for permitting and
administering concession operations on
Service lands. We use concession
contracts to assist us in providing
wildlife-dependent recreation activities
to the visiting public by using contracts
between the Service and a private
entity, where the private entity is
allowed to charge a fee for services
provided at a field station to the visiting
public.
We collect information in both
narrative (non-form) and form format.
The amount of information or degree of
detail requested varies widely,

depending upon the size and scope of
the business opportunity. For example,
a much greater amount of detailed
information would be required for a
multi-unit camping and food service
operation than would be required for a
small bait sales operation. We use the
information provided by prospective
concessionaires to objectively evaluate
offers received for a particular business
opportunity, assure adequate protection
of refuge resources, and to determine
which offeror will provide the best
service to visitors.
Below are examples of types of
information the Service collects from a
potential or current concessionaire.
General Concessionaire Information
• Description of how the respondent
will conduct operations to minimize
disturbance to wildlife; protect refuge
resources; and provide visitors with a
high-quality, safe, and enjoyable visitor
experience.
• Proposal to protect, conserve, and
preserve resources of the refuge. The
proposal must respond to specific
resource management objectives and
issues at the refuge and regarding the
contract in question.
• Proposal to provide necessary and
appropriate visitor services at
reasonable rates. This proposal must
respond to specific visitor service
questions at the refuge and regarding the
contract in question.
• Experience and related background
of the offeror, including past
performance and expertise of the offeror
in providing the same or similar visitor
services as those to be provided under
the draft concession contract.
• Financial capability of the offeror to
carry out its proposal. In particular, we
require projected financials, including
initial investments, startup expenses,
income statement, operating
assumptions, cash flow statement,
recapture of investments, and all
associated assumptions.
• The amount of the proposed
minimum franchise fee and other forms
of financial consideration.
Proposal for Concession Opportunity
• Offeror’s transmittal letter,
including the name and contact
information of the entity offering a
proposal to operate a concession
contract.

• Business type of the offeror, such as
corporation, limited liability company,
partnership, etc.
• Business history information,
including adverse history that could
impact future operations under a
concession contract.
• Credit report, so that we can
understand the offeror’s credit history
and any risks of contracting with the
entity.
• Proposed staffing/management
operation information, including
organization charts and delegations of
authority, to ensure adequate staffing.
• Proof of indemnification, including
public liability insurance that co-names
the Government as co-insured.
Reporting Requirements
• Annual financial reports providing
concessioner financial information, as
required by each concession contract.
• Quarterly and annual progress
reports to monitor performance.

chapter 630 FW 8.3, a concessioner (and
any subconcessioner) must keep and
make available to the Service records for
the term of the concession contract.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.—On July 13, 2015, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’)
issued antidumping duty orders on
imports of steel nails from Korea,
Malaysia, Oman, Taiwan, and Vietnam
(80 FR 39994). On July 14, 2015,
Commerce issued a countervailing duty
order on imports of steel nails from
Vietnam (80 FR 41006). The
Commission is conducting reviews
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), to
determine whether revocation of the
orders would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to the domestic industry within
a reasonably foreseeable time.
Provisions concerning the conduct of
this proceeding may be found in the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure at 19 CFR part 201, subparts
A and B, and 19 CFR part 207, subparts
A and F. The Commission will assess
the adequacy of interested party
responses to this notice of institution to
determine whether to conduct full or
expedited reviews. The Commission’s
determinations in any expedited
reviews will be based on the facts
available, which may include

information provided in response to this
notice.
Definitions.—The following
definitions apply to these reviews:
(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or
kind of merchandise that is within the
scope of the five-year reviews, as
defined by Commerce.
(2) The Subject Countries in these
reviews are Korea, Malaysia, Oman,
Taiwan, and Vietnam.
(3) The Domestic Like Product is the
domestically produced product or
products which are like, or in the
absence of like, most similar in
characteristics and uses with, the
Subject Merchandise. In its original
determinations, the Commission found
a single Domestic Like Product
consisting of steel nails, coextensive
with Commerce’s scope.
(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S.
producers as a whole of the Domestic
Like Product, or those producers whose
collective output of the Domestic Like
Product constitutes a major proportion
of the total domestic production of the
product. In its original determinations,
the Commission defined the Domestic
Industry to include all domestic
producers of nails, except one producer
for which appropriate circumstances
were found to exclude from the
domestic industry.
(5) The Order Date is the date that the
orders under review became effective. In
the reviews of the antidumping duty
orders, the Order Date is July 13, 2015.
In the review of the countervailing duty
order, the Order Date is July 14, 2015.
(6) An Importer is any person or firm
engaged, either directly or through a
parent company or subsidiary, in
importing the Subject Merchandise into
the United States from a foreign
manufacturer or through its selling
agent.
Participation in the proceeding and
public service list.—Persons, including
industrial users of the Subject
Merchandise and, if the merchandise is
