Advisory Committee Act (FACA). The
Committee provides advice and
recommendations to the Secretary of the
Interior through the Federal Geographic
Data Committee related to management
of Federal geospatial programs,
development of the National Spatial
Data Infrastructure, and the
implementation of Office of
Management and Budget Circular A–16
and Executive Order 12906. The
Committee reviews and comments on
geospatial policy and management
issues and provides a forum for views
of non-Federal stakeholders in the
geospatial community.
DATES: Nominations to participate on
this Committee must be received by July
17, 2015.
ADDRESSES: Send nominations
electronically to ngacnominations@

Additional information about the NGAC
and the nomination process is posted on
the NGAC Web page at www.fgdc.gov/

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

The
Committee conducts its operations in
accordance with the provisions of
FACA. It reports to the Secretary of the
Interior through the Federal Geographic
Data Committee (FGDC) and functions
solely as an advisory body. The
Committee provides recommendations
and advice to the Department and the
FGDC on policy and management issues
related to the effective operation of
Federal geospatial programs.
The NGAC includes up to 30
members, selected to generally achieve
a balanced representation of the
viewpoints of the various stakeholders
involved in national geospatial
activities. NGAC members are
appointed for staggered terms, and
nominations received through this call
for nominations may be used to fill
vacancies on the Committee that will
become available in 2015 and 2016.
Nominations will be reviewed by the
FGDC and additional information may
be requested from nominees. Final
selection and appointment of
Committee members will be made by
the Secretary of the Interior. Individuals
who are Federally registered lobbyists
are ineligible to serve on all FACA and
non-FACA boards, committees, or
councils in an individual capacity. The
term ‘‘individual capacity’’ refers to
individuals who are appointed to
exercise their own individual best
judgment on behalf of the government,
such as when they are designated
Special Government Employees, rather
than being appointed to represent a
particular interest.
The Committee meets approximately
3–4 times per year. Committee members
will serve without compensation, but
travel and per diem costs will be
provided by USGS. The USGS will also
provide necessary support services to
the Committee. Committee meetings are
open to the public. Notice of committee
meetings are published in the Federal
Register at least 15 days before the date
of the meeting. The public will have an

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), Public Law 100–497, 25 U.S.C.
2701, et seq., established the National
Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC or

III gaming activities, and to conduct
background investigations of persons
with direct or indirect financial interests
in, and management responsibility for,

guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated parts 533, 535, and 537 of
title 25, Code of Federal Regulations, to
implement these statutory requirements.
Section 533.2 requires a tribe or
management contractor to submit a
management contract for review within

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the
regulation of gaming on Indian lands.
Amongst other actions necessary to
carry out the Commission’s statutory
duties, the Act requires Indian tribes
that conduct a class II and/or class III
gaming activity to pay annual fees to the
Commission on the basis of the
assessable gross revenues of each
gaming operation using rates established
by the Commission. 25 U.S.C. 2717. The
Commission is authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 514 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to implement
these statutory requirements.
Section 514.6 requires a tribe to
submit, along with its fee payments,
quarterly fee statements (worksheets)
showing its assessable gross revenues
for the previous fiscal year in order to
support the computation of fees paid by
each gaming operation. Section 514.7
requires a tribe to submit a notice
within 30 days after a gaming operation
changes its fiscal year. Section 514.15
allows a tribe to submit fingerprint

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the

Amongst other actions necessary to
carry out the Commission’s statutory
duties, the Act directs the Commission
to monitor class II gaming conducted on
Indian lands on a continuing basis in
order to adequately shield Indian
gaming from organized crime and other
corrupting influences, to ensure that the
Indian tribe is the primary beneficiary of
the gaming operation, and to assure that
gaming is conducted fairly and honestly
by both the operator and players. 25
U.S.C. 2702(2), 2706(b)(1). The
Commission is also authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to

continuing basis.
Section 543.3 requires a tribal gaming
regulatory authority (TGRA) to submit
to the Commission a notice requesting
an extension to the deadline (by an
additional six months) to achieve

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the
regulation of gaming on Indian lands.
Amongst other actions necessary to

duties, the Act requires Indian tribes
that conduct class II and/or class III
gaming to issue ‘‘a separate license . . .
for each place, facility, or location on
Indian lands at which class II [and class
III] gaming is conducted,’’ 25 U.S.C.
2710(b)(1), (d)(1), and to ensure that
‘‘the construction and maintenance of
the gaming facilities, and the operation
of that gaming is conducted in a manner
which adequately protects the
environment and public health and
safety.’’ 25 U.S.C. 2710(b)(2)(E). The
Commission is authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 559 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to implement
these requirements.
Section 559.2 requires a tribe to
submit a notice (that a facility license is
under consideration for issuance) at
least 120 days before opening any new

that the construction, maintenance, and
operation of that gaming facility is
conducted in a manner that adequately
protects the environment and the public
health and safety. Section 559.5 requires
a tribe to submit a notice within 30 days
if a facility license is terminated or
expires or if a gaming operation closes
or reopens. Section 559.6 requires a
tribe to maintain and provide applicable

COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701–TA–514 and 731–
TA–1250 (Final)]

53-Foot Domestic Dry Containers From
China; Determinations
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject investigations, the United
States International Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant
to the Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’),
that the establishment of an industry in
the United States is not materially
retarded by reason of imports of 53-foot
domestic dry containers from China,
provided for in subheading 8609.00.00
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States, that have been found
by the Department of Commerce
(‘‘Commerce’’) to be sold in the United
States at less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’),
and that have been found by Commerce
to be subsidized by the Government of
China.2
Background
The Commission, pursuant to sections
705(b) and 735(b) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C.
1673d(b)), instituted these
investigations effective April 23, 2014,
following receipt of a petition filed with
the Commission and Commerce by
Stoughton Trailers, LLC, Stoughton,
Wisconsin. The final phase of the
investigations was scheduled by the
Commission following notification of
preliminary determinations by
Commerce that imports of 53-foot
domestic dry containers from China
were subsidized within the meaning of
section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1671b(b)) and dumped within the
