351.218(d)(1)(I). The domestic
interested parties claimed interested
party status under section 771(9)(c) of
the Act, as U.S. manufacturers of
glycine, and sections 771(9)(E) and (F)
of the Act, as a trade or business
association of domestic manufacturers
of glycine whose members are engaged
in the production of glycine in the
United States. The Department received
a complete substantive response from
the domestic interested parties within
the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). However, the
Department did not receive any
responses from the respondent
interested parties 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 antidumping duty order.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
glycine, which is a free–flowing
crystalline material, like salt or sugar.
Glycine is produced at varying levels of
purity and is used as a sweetener/taste
enhancer, a buffering agent,
reabsorbable amino acid, chemical
intermediate, and a metal complexing
agent. This order covers glycine of all
purity levels. Glycine is currently
classified under subheading
2922.49.4020 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
In a separate scope ruling, the
Department determined that D(-)
Phenylglycine Ethyl Dane Salt is outside
the scope of the order. See Notice of
Scope Ruilings, 62 FR 62288 (November
21, 1997). Although the HTSUS
subheading is provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written
description of the merchandise under
the order is dispositive.

All issues raised in this review are

Tillman, Acting Deputy Assistant
Secretary, Import Administration, to

hereby adopted by this notice. The
issues discussed in the accompanying
Decision Memorandum include the
likelihood of continuation or recurrence
of dumping were the order revoked and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 6, 2005, the Department of
Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
published the preliminary results of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
polyester staple fiber from the Republic
of Korea covering the period May 1,
2003, through April 30, 2004 (70 FR
32756). The final results for the
antidumping duty administrative review
of certain polyester staple fiber from the
Republic of Korea are currently due no
later than October 4, 2005.
Extension of Time Limits for Final
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended by the Uruguay
Round Agreements Act (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue the
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an
antidumping duty order for which a
review is requested and issue the final
results within 120 days after the date on
which the preliminary results are
published. However, if it is not
practicable to complete the review
within the time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend these deadlines to
a maximum of 365 days and 180 days,
respectively.
Because the Department requires
additional time to review and analyze
the comments submitted by interested
parties regarding complex physical
characteristic codes of control numbers,
it is not practicable to complete this
review within the originally anticipated
time limit (i.e., by October 4, 2005).
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for completion

SUMMARY: On March 1, 2005, the

of the antidumping duty orders on
porcelain–on-steel cooking ware from
the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’)

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended,
(‘‘the Act’’). On the basis of the notice
of intent to participate and adequate
substantive responses filed on behalf of
the domestic interested parties, and
inadequate responses from respondent
interested parties, the Department
conducted expedited sunset reviews. As
a result of these sunset reviews, the
Department finds that revocation of the

lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping at the levels listed below in
the section entitled ‘‘Final Results of
Reviews.’’
EFFECTIVE DATE: October 5, 2005.
