CANADIAN ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AGENCY

CANADIAN ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT ACT

Model Class Screening Report for Aquatic-based Commercial Guiding Activities in the Mountain National Parks of Canada — Public notice

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) declares the report entitled Model Class Screening Report for
Aquatic-based Commercial Guiding Activities in the Mountain National Parks of Canada
to be a model class screening report (the MCSR) pursuant to the provisions of subsection 19(1) and paragraph 19(2)(b) of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (the Act).

Public consultations on the MCSR took place from March 7, 2008, to April 7, 2008. The Agency received no written submission(s) from the public concerning the MCSR. In making the declaration proposed by Parks Canada, the Agency has reviewed the MCSR and has determined that the project screening process, as described in the document, will meet the requirements of the Act for the environmental assessment of the class of projects. It is also the opinion of the Agency that the class of projects described in the MCSR is not likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects when the design standards and mitigation measures described in the report are applied.

The declaration is effective May 3, 2008, and is subject to the following terms and conditions:

  • Subject to subsection 19(8) of the Act, the declaration period is valid until May 3, 2013.
  • Parks Canada will notify the Agency, in writing, a minimum of six months prior to the date on which the declaration expires, of its intention: to renew the MCSR; or to renew the MCSR with modifications or additions; or, not to renew the MCSR and thereby allow the declaration to expire.
  • To renew the MCSR, Parks Canada will submit the proposed MCSR to the Agency not less than three months prior to the expiration date of this declaration, so that the Agency may initiate a new declaration process.
  • Parks Canada and the Agency will ensure that the MCSR, and subsequent Class Screening Project Reports, are made available to the public in accordance with the requirements of the Act, as the MCSR may be amended from time to time. As such, Parks Canada will place the MCSR, and subsequent Class Screening Project Reports, in the Canadian Environmental Assessment Registry (CEAR) project file of its regional office. Parks Canada will also post a statement of the projects in respect of which the MCSR was used on the CEAR Web site, on a quarterly basis, as required under paragraph 55.1(2)(d) of the Act. The quarterly schedule for posting on the CEAR Web site is contained in section 6.4 of the MCSR.
  • Any amendments to the report will be developed and implemented in accordance with the provisions for amendment contained in section 7.1 of the MCSR.

For further information, contact Tamara Skillen-Haynes, Class Screening Advisor, Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, 160 Elgin Street, 22nd Floor, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H3, 613-957-0716 (telephone), 613-957-0941 (fax), ClassScreening@ceaa-acee.gc.ca (email).

CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL

COMMENCEMENT OF INQUIRY

Carbon steel welded pipe

Notice was received by the Secretary of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) on April 22, 2008, from the Director General of the Trade Programs Directorate at the Canada Border Services Agency, stating that a preliminary determination had been made respecting the dumping and subsidizing of carbon steel welded pipe, commonly identified as standard pipe, in the nominal size range of 1/2 inch up to and including 6 inches (12.7 mm to 168.3 mm in outside diameter) inclusive, in various forms and finishes, usually supplied to meet ASTM A53, ASTM A135, ASTM A252, ASTM A589, ASTM A795, ASTM F1083 or Commercial Quality, or AWWA C200-97 or equivalent specifications, including water well casing, piling pipe, sprinkler pipe and fencing pipe, but excluding oil and gas line pipe made to API specifications exclusively, originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China.

Pursuant to section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), the Tribunal has initiated an inquiry (Inquiry No. NQ-2008-001) to determine whether the dumping and subsidizing of the
above-mentioned goods have caused injury or retardation or are threatening to cause injury, and to determine such other matters as the Tribunal is required to determine under that section.

Under section 46 of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, a person who provides information to the Tribunal and who wishes some or all of the information to be kept confidential must submit to the Tribunal, at the time the information is provided, a statement designating the information as confidential, together with an explanation as to why that information is designated as confidential. Furthermore, the person must submit a non-confidential summary of the information designated as confidential or a statement indicating why such a summary cannot be made.

Public hearing

A public hearing relating to this inquiry will be held in the Tribunal Hearing Room, 18th Floor, Standard Life Centre, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario, commencing on July 22, 2008, at 9:30 a.m.

Each person or government wishing to participate in the inquiry and at the hearing as a party must file a notice of participation with the Secretary on or before May 9, 2008. Each counsel who intends to represent a party in the inquiry and at the hearing must file a notice of representation, as well as a declaration and undertaking, with the Secretary on or before May 9, 2008.

To allow the Tribunal to determine whether simultaneous interpretation will be required for the hearing, each interested party and each counsel filing a notice of participation or representation must advise the Secretary, at the same time that they file the notice, whether they and their witnesses will be using French or English or both languages at the hearing.

In the event of an injury finding, a request for a public interest inquiry conducted pursuant to subsection 45(1) of SIMA may be made by any party to the injury inquiry or by any other group or person affected by the injury finding. Such a request must be filed with the Tribunal within 45 days of the injury finding. A public interest inquiry is completely separate from an injury inquiry. However, the Tribunal invites all persons who anticipate that they will have public interest concerns in the event of an injury finding to simply notify the Tribunal by May 9, 2008. The Tribunal is not seeking and does not expect submissions on public interest issues during the injury inquiry.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal Rules govern these proceedings.

In order to observe and understand production processes, the Tribunal, accompanied by its staff, may conduct plant visits.

Along with the notice of commencement of inquiry, the Secretary has sent a letter to the domestic producers, importers, foreign producers and certain purchasers with a known interest in the inquiry providing details on the procedures, as well as the schedule for the inquiry. The letter specifies, among other things, the date for filing replies to Tribunal questionnaires, the date on which the information on record will be made available by the Tribunal to interested parties and counsel that have filed notices of participation or representation, and the dates for the filing of submissions by interested parties. Copies of all the questionnaires issued can be downloaded from the Tribunal’s Web site at www.citt-tcce.gc.ca/question/index_e.asp.

The Tribunal’s Guide to Making Requests for Product Exclusions, which can be found on the Tribunal’s Web site, describes the procedure for filing requests for specific product exclusions. The Guide includes a form for filing requests for product exclusions and a form for any party that opposes a request to respond to such requests. This does not preclude parties from making submissions in a different format if they so wish, provided that all of the information and supporting documentation requested in the forms are included. Requests to exclude goods from the finding shall be filed by interested parties no later than June 18, 2008. Parties opposed or consenting or not opposed to the request for exclusion shall file written reply submissions no later than noon, on June 26, 2008. Should the request for a specific product exclusion be opposed, and if the interested party wishes to reply, it must do so within a period determined by the Tribunal in advance of the hearing.

Written submissions, correspondence and requests for information regarding this notice should be addressed to the Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), secretary@citt-tcce.gc.ca (email).

Parties and the public may file documents electronically with the Tribunal through its Secure E-filing Service. The service utilizes the Government of Canada’s epass system, which allows the secure transmission of confidential business information. The information is fully encrypted from the sender to the Tribunal.

However, parties must still file paper copies when instructed to do so. Where a party is required to file hard copies, the electronic version and the hard-copy version must be identical. In case of discrepancies, the hard-copy version will be considered the original.

Written and oral communication with the Tribunal may be in English or in French.

CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL

EXPIRY REVIEW OF FINDING

Hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) hereby gives notice that it will, pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiate an expiry review (Expiry Review No. RR-2008-002) of its finding made on January 9, 2004, in Inquiry No. NQ-2003-002, concerning hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate not further manufactured than hot-rolled, heat-treated or not, in cut lengths in widths from 24 inches (+/-610 mm) to 152 inches (+/-3,860 mm) inclusive and in thicknesses from 0.187 inch (+/-4.75 mm) to 4 inches (+/-101.6 mm) inclusive, originating in or exported from the Republic of Bulgaria, the Czech Republic and Romania, excluding plate produced to American Society for Testing and Materials specifications A515 and A516M/A516 Grade 70 in thicknesses greater than 3.125 inches (+/-79.3 mm), universal mill plate, plate for use in the manufacture of pipe and plate having a rolled, raised figure at regular intervals on the surface (also known as floor plate).

Notice of Expiry No. LE-2007-004, issued on March 4, 2008, informed interested persons and governments of the impending expiry of the finding. On the basis of available information, including representations requesting the initiation of an expiry review received by the Tribunal in reply to the notice of expiry, the Tribunal is of the opinion that an expiry review of the finding is warranted. The Tribunal has notified the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), as well as other interested persons and governments, of its decision.

The Tribunal has issued a Draft Guideline on Expiry Reviews that can be found on the Tribunal’s Web site at www.citt-tcce.gc.ca. In this expiry review, the CBSA must determine whether the expiry of the finding in respect of hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the goods.

If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the finding in respect of any goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the CBSA will provide the Tribunal with the information that is required under the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Rules. The Tribunal will then conduct an inquiry to determine if the continued or resumed dumping is likely to result in injury or retardation. The Tribunal will issue its order no later than January 8, 2009, and its statement of reasons no later than January 23, 2009.

If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the finding in respect of any goods is unlikely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will not consider those goods in its subsequent determination of the likelihood of injury or retardation and will issue an order rescinding the finding with respect to those goods.

The CBSA must provide notice of its determination within 120 days after receiving notice of the Tribunal’s decision to initiate an expiry review, that is, no later than August 21, 2008. The CBSA will also notify all persons or governments that were notified by the Tribunal of the commencement of an expiry review, as well as any others that participated in the CBSA’s investigation.

Letters have been sent to parties with a known interest in the expiry review providing them with the schedule respecting both the CBSA’s investigation and the Tribunal’s inquiry, should the CBSA determine that the expiry of the finding in respect of any goods is likely to result in a continuation or resumption of dumping.

The CBSA’s investigation

The CBSA will conduct its investigation pursuant to the provisions of SIMA and the administrative guidelines set forth in the Trade Programs Directorate’s publication entitled Guidelines on the Conduct of Expiry Review Investigations under the Special Import Measures Act. Any information submitted to the CBSA by interested persons concerning this investigation is deemed to be public information unless clearly designated as confidential. Where the submission is confidential, a non-confidential edited version or summary of the submission must also be provided which will be disclosed to interested parties upon request.

With respect to the CBSA’s investigation, the schedule specifies, among other things, the date for the filing of replies to the expiry review questionnaires, the date on which the CBSA exhibits will be available to parties to the proceeding, the date on which the administrative record will be closed and the dates for the filing of submissions by parties in the proceeding. Further information regarding the CBSA’s investigation can be obtained by contacting the CBSA officer as mentioned below.

Tribunal’s inquiry

Should the CBSA determine that the expiry of the finding in respect of any goods is likely to result in a continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will conduct its inquiry, pursuant to the provisions of SIMA and its Draft Guideline on Expiry Reviews, to determine if there is a likelihood of injury or retardation. The schedule for the Tribunal’s inquiry specifies, among other things, the date for the filing of replies by domestic producers to Part E of the expiry review questionnaire, the date for the filing of updated information from domestic producers, importers and exporters to the expiry review questionnaire replies, the date on which information on the record will be made available by the Tribunal to interested parties and counsel that have filed notices of participation and the dates for the filing of submissions by interested parties.

The Tribunal’s Guide to Making Requests for Product Exclusions, which can be found on the Tribunal’s Web site, describes the procedure for filing requests for specific product exclusions. The Guide includes a form for filing requests for product exclusions and a form for any party that opposes a request to respond to such requests. This does not preclude parties from making submissions in a different format if they so wish, provided that all of the information and supporting documentation requested in the forms are included. Requests to exclude goods from the finding shall be filed by interested parties no later than noon, on October 17, 2008. Parties opposed or consenting or not opposed to the request for exclusion shall file written reply submissions no later than noon, on October 28, 2008. Should the request for a specific product exclusion be opposed, and if the interested party wishes to reply, it must do so no later than noon, on November 5, 2008.

Under section 46 of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, a person who provides information to the Tribunal and who wishes some or all of the information to be kept confidential must submit to the Tribunal, at the time the information is provided, a statement designating the information as confidential, together with an explanation as to why the information is designated as confidential. Furthermore, the person must submit a non-confidential edited version or non-confidential summary of the information designated as confidential or a statement indicating why such an edited version or summary cannot be made.

Public hearing

The Tribunal will hold a public hearing relating to this expiry review in the Tribunal Hearing Room, 18th Floor, Standard Life Centre, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario, commencing on December 1, 2008, at 9:30 a.m., to hear evidence and representations by interested parties.

Each interested person or government wishing to participate in the hearing as a party must file a notice of participation with the Secretary on or before August 29, 2008. Each counsel who intends to represent a party at the hearing must file a notice of representation, as well as a declaration and undertaking, with the Secretary on or before August 29, 2008.

To allow the Tribunal to determine whether simultaneous interpretation will be required for the hearing, each interested person or government filing a notice of participation and each counsel filing a notice of representation must advise the Secretary, at the same time that they file the notice, whether they and their witnesses will be using English or French or both languages at the hearing.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal Rules govern these proceedings.

In order to observe and understand production processes, the Tribunal, accompanied by its staff, may conduct plant visits.

INQUIRY

Information processing and related telecommunication services

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) has received two complaints (File Nos. PR-2008-008 and PR-2008-009) from Bell Mobility (Bell), of Mississauga, Ontario, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. EN869-055087/C) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) on behalf of various government departments. The solicitation is for the provision of mobile wireless products and services. Pursuant to subsection 30.13(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act and subsection 7(2) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Procurement Inquiry Regulations, notice is hereby given that the Tribunal has decided to conduct an inquiry into the complaints.

Bell alleges that PWGSC improperly amended two existing contracts pertaining to the provision of mobile wireless products and services to include the provision of new services, which had the effect of precluding competition.

Further information may be obtained from the Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), secretary@citt-tcce.gc.ca (email).

Notice of consultation and hearing

May 27, 2008
Edmonton, Alberta
Additional information added to item 13

Further to its Broadcastin Notices of Public Hearing CRTC 2008-2 dated March 28, 2008, CRTC 2008-2-1 dated April 2, 2008, CRTC 2008-2-2 dated April 9, 2008, and CRTC 2008-2-3 dated April 10, 2008, the Commission announces the following:

The additional information is in bold.

Item 13

Edmonton and various other locations in Alberta, Alberta
Application No. 2007-1238-2

Application by Aboriginal Multi-Media Society of Alberta (AMMSA) for a licence to operate an English- and Native-languages FM Type B Native radio programming undertaking in Edmonton.

The Commission notes that the applicant has requested the addition of technical facilities to its Native Type A undertaking CFWE-FM for both Edmonton and Fort McMurray. In this regard, and further to the Native Broadcasting Policy (Public Notice CRTC 1990-89) and Exemption Order respecting certain native radio undertakings (Public Notice CRTC 1998-62), an addition at Fort McMurray would have the same force and effect as an addition at Edmonton.

For the sake of precision, the Commission therefore notes that Type B status will be considered in the event of an approval for either or both of the above-noted technical facilities. The determination of the merits of adding one is therefore not related in any way to the determination of the merits of the other.

The location of the radio programming undertaking will, therefore, be determined by the Commission following the public hearing.
