Factual Information Requirements
Commerce’s regulations identify five
categories of factual information in 19
CFR 351.102(b)(21), which are
summarized as follows: (i) evidence
submitted in response to questionnaires;
(ii) evidence submitted in support of
allegations; (iii) publicly available
information to value factors under 19
CFR 351.408(c) or to measure the
adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR
351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence placed on
the record by Commerce; and (v)
evidence other than factual information
described in (i)–(iv). These regulations
require any party, when submitting
factual information, to specify under
which subsection of 19 CFR
351.102(b)(21) the information is being
submitted and, if the information is
submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct
factual information already on the
record, to provide an explanation
identifying the information already on
the record that the factual information
seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The
regulations, at 19 CFR 351.301, also
provide specific time limits for such
factual submissions based on the type of
factual information being submitted.

reject factual submissions in any
proceeding segments if the submitting
party does not comply with applicable
certification requirements.
Extension of Time Limits Regulation
Parties may request an extension of
time limits before a time limit
established under Part 351 expires, or as
otherwise specified by Commerce.12 In
general, an extension request will be
considered untimely if it is filed after
the time limit established under Part
351 expires. For submissions which are
due from multiple parties
simultaneously, an extension request
will be considered untimely if it is filed
after 10:00 a.m. on the due date.
Examples include, but are not limited
to: (1) case and rebuttal briefs, filed
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; (2) factual
information to value factors under 19
CFR 351.408(c), or to measure the
adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR
351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, clarification
and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments
concerning the selection of a surrogate
country and surrogate values and
rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP
data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under
certain circumstances, Commerce may
elect to specify a different time limit by
which extension requests will be
considered untimely for submissions
which are due from multiple parties
simultaneously. In such a case,
Commerce will inform parties in the
letter or memorandum setting forth the
deadline (including a specified time) by
which extension requests must be filed
to be considered timely. This policy also
requires that an extension request must
be made in a separate, standalone
submission, and clarifies the
circumstances under which Commerce
will grant untimely-filed requests for the
extension of time limits. Please review
the Final Rule, available at https://

submitting factual information in these
segments.

15 minutes for voluntary fishing vessel

Total Annual Burden Hours: 6,863
hours.
Needs and Uses: This is a request for
a revision and extension of an existing
information collection, HMS Dealer
Family of Forms (0648–0040). This
information collection covers reports
from seafood dealers regarding
purchases, sales, imports, exports, or reexports of Atlantic highly migratory
species (HMS), including federally
managed bigeye, albacore, yellowfin,
and skipjack (BAYS) tunas, Bluefin tuna
(BFT), sharks, and swordfish (SWO).
Domestic catch/landing data are
necessary to effectively manage
domestic fisheries. This information,
consistent with the stated purpose of
Executive Order (E.O.) 14276 of
ensuring the integrity of the seafood
supply chain, is used to monitor quotas,
estimate fishing mortality, and identify
the geographic and temporal
distribution of fish and fisheries. The
International Commission requires
international trade-tracking programs
for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas
(ICCAT). As part of this revision, the
process for collecting email addresses
from new HMS dealers has been
updated. Previously, new HMS dealers
were asked to submit their email
addresses via email or phone. However,
it is now a standard part of the annual
dealer permit application process to
collect email addresses. Consequently,
there is no longer a need for new HMS
dealers to provide their emails
separately. Therefore, the burden
estimates associated with collecting
email addresses are no longer applicable
for this ICR. The overall goal of these
trade-tracking programs is to reduce
illegal, unreported, and unregulated
(IUU) fishing for the covered species
and improve the management of
associated fisheries. This goal aligns
with the policies outlined in Executive
Orders (E.O.) 14276, which seeks to
combat IUU fishing and protect U.S.
seafood markets from unfair trade
practices, and E.O. 14303, which
ensures that federal decisions are based
on the most credible, reliable, and
impartial data available.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.

bluefin tuna dealer reports; weekly for

needed for submission of nongovernmental validation authorizations
and validation of catch and statistical

Legal Authority: Magnuson-Stevens

Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), and the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the
MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) direct
the Secretary of Commerce 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
authorization is provided to the public
for review.
An authorization for incidental
takings shall be granted if NMFS finds
that the taking will have a negligible
impact on the species or stock(s), will
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on the availability of the species or
stock(s) for subsistence uses (where
relevant), and if the permissible
methods of taking and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such takings are set
forth. NMFS has defined ‘‘negligible
impact’’ in 50 CFR 216.103 as an impact
resulting from the specified activity that
cannot be reasonably expected to, and is
not reasonably likely to, adversely affect
the species or stock through effects on
annual rates of recruitment or survival.
Except with respect to certain
activities not pertinent here, the MMPA
defines ‘‘harassment’’ as: any act of
pursuit, torment, or annoyance which (i)
has the potential to injure a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild (Level A harassment); or (ii) has
the potential to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of behavioral
patterns, including, but not limited to,
