None..
In accordance with section 351.213(b)
of the regulations, an interested party as
defined by section 771(9) of the Act may
request in writing that the Secretary
conduct an administrative review. For
both antidumping and countervailing
duty reviews, the interested party must
specify the individual producers or
exporters covered by an antidumping
finding or an antidumping or
countervailing duty order or suspension
agreement for which it is requesting a
review, and the requesting party must
state why it desires the Secretary to
review those particular producers or
exporters.2 If the interested party
intends for the Secretary to review sales
of merchandise by an exporter (or a
producer if that producer also exports
merchandise from other suppliers)
which were produced in more than one
country of origin and each country of
origin is subject to a separate order, then
the interested party must state
specifically, on an order–by-order basis,
which exporter(s) the request is
intended to cover.
As explained in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68
FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department
has clarified its practice with respect to
the collection of final antidumping
duties on imports of merchandise where
intermediate firms are involved. The
public should be aware of this
clarification in determining whether to
request an administrative review of
merchandise subject to antidumping
findings and orders. See also the Import
Administration Web site at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov.
Six copies of the request should be
submitted to the Assistant Secretary for
Import Administration, International
Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S.
Department of Commerce, 14th Street &
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington,
DC 20230. The Department also asks
parties to serve a copy of their requests
to the Office of Antidumping/
Countervailing Operations, Attention:
Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of the main
Commerce Building.
Further, in accordance with section
351.303(f)(l)(i) of the regulations, a copy
of each request must be served on every
party on the Department’s service list.
The Department will publish in the
Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation
of Administrative Review of
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation’’ for requests received by
the last day of September 2006. If the
Department does not receive, by the last
day of September 2006, a request for
review of entries covered by an order,
finding, or suspended investigation
listed in this notice and for the period
identified above, the Department will
instruct the U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to assess antidumping or
countervailing duties on those entries at
a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or
bond for) estimated antidumping or
countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect
the cash deposit previously ordered.
This notice is not required by statute
but is published as a service to the
international trading community.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 28, 2006, the Department of
Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’)
published in the Federal Register the
final results of the third administrative
review of stainless steel bar from
Germany.1 This review covered the
period March 1, 2004, through February
28, 2005. On July 31, 2006, Carpenter
Technology Corp., Crucible Specialty
Metals Division of Crucible Materials
Corp., and Electralloy Corp.
(collectively, ‘‘petitioners’’) submitted
ministerial error allegations filed
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(c). On
August 7, 2006, BGH Edelstahl Freital
GmbH, BGH Edelstahl Lippendorf
GmbH, BGH Edelstahl Lugau GmbH,
and BGH Edelstahl Siegen GmbH
(collectively, ‘‘BGH’’) submitted rebuttal
comments. Based on these submissions,
we made changes to the margin
calculation of BGH. The amended final
weighted–average dumping margin for
BGH is listed below in the section
entitled ‘‘Amended Final Results.’’
Scope of the Order
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
For the purposes of the order, the
term ‘‘stainless steel bar’’ includes
articles of stainless steel in straight
lengths that have been either hot–rolled,
forged, turned, cold–drawn, cold–rolled
or otherwise cold–finished, or ground,
having a uniform solid cross section
along their whole length in the shape of
circles, segments of circles, ovals,
rectangles (including squares), triangles,
hexagons, octagons, or other convex
polygons. Stainless steel bar includes
cold–finished stainless steel bars that
are turned or ground in straight lengths,
whether produced from hot–rolled bar
or from straightened and cut rod or
wire, and reinforcing bars that have
indentations, ribs, grooves, or other
deformations produced during the
rolling process.
Except as specified above, the term
does not include stainless steel semi–
finished products, cut length flat–rolled
products (i.e., cut length rolled products
which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness
1 See Stainless Steel Bar from Germany: Final
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative
have a width measuring at least 10 times
the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in
thickness having a width which exceeds
150 mm and measures at least twice the
thickness), products that have been cut
from stainless steel sheet, strip or plate,
wire (i.e., cold–formed products in
coils, of any uniform solid cross section
along their whole length, which do not
conform to the definition of flat–rolled
products), angles, shapes and sections.
The stainless steel bar subject to this
review is currently classifiable under
subheadings 7222.11.00.05,
7222.11.00.50, 7222.19.00.05,
7222.19.00.50, 7222.20.00.05,
7222.20.00.45, 7222.20.00.75, and
7222.30.00.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of the
order is dispositive.
Amended Final Results
After analyzing the submissions, we
have determined in accordance with
section 735(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’) and 19 CFR
351.224 that we made ministerial errors
in the margin calculation for BGH. The
ministerial errors affected the U.S.
credit expense calculation. These errors
were: 1) the Department did not
recalculate the credit expense after
revising the payment date for some U.S.
sales, 2) the Department incorrectly
used a U.S. dollar interest rate on U.S.
sales that were made in euros, and 3)
the Department’s programming language
did not properly apply the revised U.S.
interest rate to all U.S. sales made in
U.S. dollars.
For a detailed discussion of the
ministerial error allegations and the
Department’s analysis, see
Memorandum from Team through
Susan H. Kuhbach to Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, entitled ‘‘Ministerial
Error Allegations,’’ dated August 28,
2006.
We are amending the final
determination of the antidumping duty
administrative review of stainless steel
bar from Germany to reflect the
correction of the above–cited ministerial
errors. As a result of corrections of the
ministerial errors in the Final Results,
the revised final weighted–average
dumping margin is as follows:

Results’’).
