I find the evidence presented by BIS demonstrates that the Respondents have in the past conspired to undertake acts that violate the EAR, that such violations have been deliberate and covert, and that there is a strong likelihood of future violations, particularly given the nature of the transactions and the elaborate steps that have been taken by Respondents to avoid detection by the U.S. government while knowing that their actions were in violation of the EAR.

Such a TDO is consistent with the public interest to preclude future violations of the EAR. Accordingly, I find that a TDO naming the Respondents is necessary, in the public interest, to prevent an imminent violation of the EAR. This Order is issued on an ex parte basis without a hearing based upon BIS’s showing of an imminent violation. It is therefore ordered: First, that the Respondents, at the addresses listed above (collectively the ‘‘Denied Persons’’), may not, directly or indirectly, participate in any way in any transaction involving any commodity, software or technology (hereinafter collectively referred to as ‘‘item’’) exported or to be exported from the United States that is subject to the Export Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’), or in any other activity subject to the EAR, including, but not limited to: A.

Due to the complexity of issues present in this administrative review, such as the issues of affiliation and adverse facts available, the Department needs more time to address these items and evaluate the issues more thoroughly. The Department also needs more time to address issues raised in the formal scope inquiry that was initiated in conjunction with the administrative review on the exclusion of Grade 1080 Tire Cord Quality Wire Rod and Tire Bead Quality Wire Rod. Therefore, we are extending the deadline for the final results of the above-referenced review by 60 days. This 60-day extension of the final results falls on Saturday, May 7, 2005; therefore, the final results will be issued no later than the first business day thereafter, Monday, May 9, 2005.

Street, Mongkok, Kowloon, Hong Kong; and, Room 709 Wing Shan Tower, 
173 Des Voeux Road Central, Hong Kong; and, Room 2208, 22/F, 118

    (7) Zhenke International Trading Co. Ltd., Tianjin Port Free 
Trade Zone, Room 801, Gold Beauty Building, No. 88, Haibain 8 Road, 
TPFTZ, Tianjin, People's Republic of China;

(hereinafter collectively referred to as the ``Respondents'').

    In its request, BIS has presented evidence that indicates that the 
Respondents have conspired with others, known and unknown, to cause 
items subject to the EAR to be illegally exported to Pakistan, that 
they caused exports of items controlled for nuclear non-proliferation 
reasons to Pakistan with knowledge that violations of the EAR would 
occur, and that they took actions intended to evade the EAR.
    I find the evidence presented by BIS demonstrates that the 
Respondents have in the past conspired to undertake acts that violate 
the EAR, that such violations have been deliberate and covert, and that 
there is a strong likelihood of future violations, particularly given 
the nature of the transactions and the elaborate steps that have been 
taken by Respondents to avoid detection by the U.S. government while 
knowing that their actions were in violation of the EAR. As such, a 
Temporary Denial Order (``TDO'') is needed to give notice to persons 
and companies in the United States and abroad that they should cease 
dealing with the Respondents in export transactions involving items 
subject to the EAR. Such a TDO is consistent with the public interest 
to preclude future violations of the EAR.
    Accordingly, I find that a TDO naming the Respondents is necessary, 
in the public interest, to prevent an imminent violation of the EAR. 
This Order is issued on an ex parte basis without a hearing based upon 
BIS's showing of an imminent violation.
    It is therefore ordered:
    First, that the Respondents, at the addresses listed above 
(collectively the ``Denied Persons''), may not, directly or indirectly, 
participate in any way in any transaction involving any commodity, 
software or technology (hereinafter collectively referred to as 
``item'') exported or to be exported from the United States that is 
subject to the Export Administration Regulations (``EAR''), or in any 
other activity subject to the EAR, including, but not limited to:
    A. Applying for, obtaining, or using any license, License 
Exception, or export control document;
    B. Carrying on negotiations concerning, or ordering, buying, 
receiving, using, selling, delivering, storing, disposing of, 
forwarding, transporting, financing, or otherwise servicing in any way, 
any transaction involving any item exported or to be exported from the 
United States that is subject to the EAR, or in any other activity 
subject to the EAR; or
    C. Benefitting in any way from any transaction involving any item 
exported or to be exported from the United States that is subject to 
the EAR, or in any other activity subject to the EAR.
    Second, that no person may, directly or indirectly, do any of the 
following:
    A. Export or reexport to or on behalf of the Denied Persons any 
item subject to the EAR;

[[Page 12443]]

    B. Take any action that facilitates the acquisition or attempted 
acquisition by the Denied Persons of the ownership, possession, or 
control of any item subject to the EAR that has been or will be 
exported from the United States, including financing or other support 
activities related to a transaction whereby the Denied Persons acquires 
or attempts to acquire such ownership, possession or control;
    C. Take any action to acquire from or to facilitate the acquisition 
or attempted acquisition from the Denied Persons of any item subject to 
the EAR that has been exported from the United States;
    D. Obtain from the Denied Persons order in the United States any 
item subject to the EAR with knowledge or reason to know that the item 
will be, or is intended to be, exported from the United States; or
    E. Engage in any transaction to service any item subject to the EAR 
that has been or will be exported from the United States and which is 
owned, possessed or controlled by the Denied Persons, or service any 
item, of whatever origin, that is owned, possessed or controlled by the 
Denied Persons if such service involves the use of any item subject to 
the EAR that has been or will be exported from the United States. For 
purposes of this paragraph, servicing means installation, maintenance, 
repair, modification or testing.
    Third, that, after notice and opportunity for comment as provided 
in section 766.23 of the EAR, any other person, firm, corporation, or 
business organization related to any of the Respondents by affiliation, 
ownership, control, or position of responsibility in the conduct of 
trade or related services may also be made subject to the provisions of 
this Order.
    Fourth, that this Order does not prohibit any export, reexport, or 
other transaction subject to the EAR where the only items involved that 
are subject to the EAR are the foreign-produced direct product of U.S.-
origin technology.
    Fifth, that in accordance with the provisions of Section 766.24(e) 
of the EAR, the Respondents may, at any time, appeal this Order by 
filing a full written statement in support of the appeal with the 
Office of the Administrative Law Judge, U.S. Coast Guard ALJ Docketing 
Center, 40 South Gay Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202-4022.
    Sixth, that in accordance with the provisions of Section 766.24(d) 
of the EAR, BIS may seek renewal of this Order by filing a written 
request not later than 20 days before the expiration date. The 
Respondents may oppose a request to renew this Order by filing a 
written submission with the Assistant Secretary for Export Enforcement, 
which must be received not later than seven days before the expiration 
date of the Order.
    Seventh, that a copy of this Order shall be served on the 
Respondents and shall be published in the Federal Register.
    Eighth, that this Order is effective upon publication in the 
Federal Register and shall remain in effect for 180 days.

    Entered this 8th day of March, 2005.
