SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The notice announcing the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC was published on January 4, 2005. On July 8, 2005, we received a new shipper review request from Shenyang Kunyu Wood Industry Co., Ltd. (‘‘Kunyu’’); on July 28, 2005, we received new shipper review requests from Dongguan Landmark Furniture Products Ltd. (‘‘Landmark’’) and Meikangchi (Nantong) Furniture Company Ltd.

E:\FR\FM\08SEN1.SGM 08SEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 173 / Thursday, September 8, 2005 / Notices In addition to the certifications described above, the companies submitted documentation establishing the following: (1) The date on which they first shipped wooden bedroom furniture for export to the United States and the date on which the wooden bedroom furniture was first entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption; (2) the volume of their first shipment and the volume of subsequent shipments (if applicable); and (3) the date of their first sale to an unaffiliated customer in the United States.

The domestic interested parties claimed interested party status as domestic producers of fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon pursuant to section 771(9)(C) of the Act. The Department received a complete substantive response from the domestic parties within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). The Department did not receive a substantive response from any respondent interested party to this proceeding. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department conducted an expedited sunset review of this CVD order. The Department determined that the sunset review of the CVD order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway is extraordinarily complicated. In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the Department may treat a review as extraordinarily complicated if it is a review of a transition order (i.e., an order in effect on January 1, 1995). Therefore, on May 13, 2005, the Department extended the time limit for completion of the final results of this review until not later than August 31, 2005.1 EFFECTIVE DATE: Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by this order is the species Atlantic salmon (Salmon Salar) marketed as specified herein; the order excludes all other species of salmon: Danube salmon, Chinook (also called ‘‘king’’ or ‘‘quinnat’’), Coho (‘‘silver’’), Sockeye (‘‘redfish’’ or ‘‘blueback’’), Humpback (‘‘pink’’) and Chum (‘‘dog’’). Atlantic salmon is a whole or nearly–whole fish, typically (but not necessarily) marketed gutted, bled, and cleaned, with the head on. The subject merchandise is typically packed in fresh–water ice (‘‘chilled’’). Excluded from the subject merchandise are fillets, steaks and other cuts of Atlantic salmon. Also excluded are frozen, canned, smoked or otherwise processed Atlantic salmon. Prior to January 1, 1990, Atlantic salmon was provided for under item numbers 0302.12.0060.8 and 0302.12.0065.3 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the (BILLING CODE: 3510–DS–S) DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration (C–403–802) Final Results of Expedited Sunset Review of Countervailing Duty Order: Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon From Norway Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. SUMMARY: On February 2, 2005, the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) initiated a sunset review of the countervailing duty (‘‘CVD’’) order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 70 FR 5415 (February 2, 2005). On the basis of a notice of intent to participate and an adequate substantive response filed on behalf of the domestic interested parties, as well as inadequate response (in this case, no response) from respondent interested parties, the Department conducted an expedited sunset review of this CVD order pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B). As a result of this sunset review, the Department finds that revocation of the CVD order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy at the levels indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The notice announcing the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom

2005, we received a new shipper review request from Shenyang Kunyu Wood 
Industry Co., Ltd. (``Kunyu''); on July 28, 2005, we received new 
shipper review requests from Dongguan Landmark Furniture Products Ltd. 
(``Landmark'') and Meikangchi (Nantong) Furniture Company Ltd. 
(``Meikangchi''); on August 1, 2005, we received a new shipper review 
request from WBE Industries (Hui-Yang) Co., Ltd. (``WBE''). All of 
these companies certified that they are both the producers and 
exporters of the subject merchandise upon which the respective requests 
for a new shipper review are based.
    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the Tariff Act of 1930 
(the ``Act'') and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), Kunyu, Landmark, Meikangchi, 
and WBE certified that they did not export wooden bedroom furniture to 
the United States during the period of investigation (``POI''). In 
addition, pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A), Kunyu, Landmark, Meikangchi, and WBE certified 
that, since the initiation of the investigation, they have never been 
affiliated with any exporter or producer who exported wooden bedroom 
furniture to the United States during the POI, including those not 
individually examined during the investigation. As required by 19 CFR 
351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), each of the above-mentioned companies also 
certified that their export activities were not controlled by the 
central government of the PRC.

[[Page 53345]]

    In addition to the certifications described above, the companies 
submitted documentation establishing the following: (1) The date on 
which they first shipped wooden bedroom furniture for export to the 
United States and the date on which the wooden bedroom furniture was 
first entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption; (2) the 
volume of their first shipment and the volume of subsequent shipments 
(if applicable); and (3) the date of their first sale to an 
unaffiliated customer in the United States.
    The Department conducted Customs database queries to confirm that 
Kunyu's, Landmark's, Meikangchi's, and WBE's shipments of subject 
merchandise had entered the United States for consumption and had been 
suspended for antidumping duties.

Initiation of New Shipper Reviews

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.214(d)(1), we find that the requests submitted by Kunyu, Landmark, 
Meikangchi, and WBE meet the threshold requirements for initiation of a 
new shipper review for shipments of wooden bedroom furniture from the 
PRC produced and exported by these companies.
    The POR is June 24, 2004, through June 30, 2005. See 19 CFR

reviews no later than 180 days from the date of initiation, and final 
results of these reviews no later than 270 days from the date of 
initiation. See section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act.
    Because Kunyu, Landmark, Meikangchi, and WBE have certified that 
they produced and exported the wooden bedroom furniture on which they 
based their respective requests for a new shipper review, we will 
instruct Customs and Border Protection to allow, at the option of the 
importer, the posting of a bond or security in lieu of a cash deposit 
for each entry of wooden bedroom furniture that was both produced and 
exported by these companies until the completion of the new shipper 
reviews, pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act.
