RIN 1515-AE10


Investigation of Claims of Evasion of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duties; Correction

AGENCY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland 
Security; Department of the Treasury.

ACTION: Interim final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) published an interim 
final rule on August 22, 2016, in the Federal Register, concerning 
investigation of claims of evasion of antidumping and countervailing 
duties. In accordance with section 421 of the Trade Facilitation and 
Trade Enforcement Act of 2015, the rule amended the U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection regulations to set forth procedures for CBP to 
investigate claims of evasion of antidumping and countervailing duty 
orders. That document inadvertently omitted a comma in the definition 
of ``evade or evasion.'' This document corrects the text in that 
definition.

DATES: This correction is effective September 8, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Altneu, Chief, Trade and 
Commercial Regulations Branch, Regulations and Rulings, Office of 
Trade, at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 22, 2016, U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) published in the Federal Register (81 FR 56477) an 
Interim Final Rule (CBP Dec. 16-11) document, entitled ``Investigation 
of Claims of Evasion of Antidumping and Countervailing Duties.'' As 
published, the interim final regulation contains an error in the text 
of the definition of ``evade or evasion'' in Sec.  165.1. The 
definition should be the same as the statutory definition found in 
section 421 of the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 
(19 U.S.C. 1517(a)(5)), but a comma was inadvertently omitted.
    The effective date for the interim final rule (CBP Dec. 16-11), 
published August 22, 2016 (81 FR 56477), remains August 22, 2016. 
Written comments must be submitted on or before October 21, 2016.
