Antifriction Bearings and Parts Thereof

Revocation of Antidumping Duty
Orders
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On June 1, 2005, the
Department of Commerce initiated and
the International Trade Commission
instituted a sunset review of the
antidumping duty orders on antifriction
bearings and parts thereof from France
and Singapore. As a result of the review,
the International Trade Commission
determined that revocation of the order
on spherical plain bearings and parts
thereof from France and the order on
ball bearings and parts thereof from
Singapore would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. Therefore, the Department of
Commerce is revoking these two
antidumping duty orders.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 11, 2005.

bearing is covered by one of the orders.
These orders cover all the subject
bearings and parts thereof (inner race,
outer race, cage, rollers, balls, seals,
shields, etc.) outlined above with
certain limitations. With regard to
finished parts, all such parts are
included in the scope of the these
orders. For unfinished parts, such parts
are included if (1) they have been heat–
treated, or (2) heat treatment is not
required to be performed on the part.
Thus, the only unfinished parts that are
not covered by these orders are those
that will be subject to heat treatment
after importation. The ultimate
application of a bearing also does not
influence whether the bearing is
covered by the orders. Bearings
designed for highly specialized
applications are not excluded. Any of
the subject bearings, regardless of
whether they may ultimately be utilized
in aircraft, automobiles, or other
equipment, are within the scope of these
orders.
For a listing of scope determinations
which pertain to the orders, see the
‘‘Scope Determination’’ Memorandum
(Scope Memorandum) from the
Antifriction Bearings Team to Laurie
Parkhill, dated March 2, 2006. The
Scope Memorandum is on file in the

On July 11, 2000, the Department of
Commerce (the Department) published
the continuation of the antidumping
duty orders on certain bearings and
parts thereof from France and Singapore
resulting from the first sunset review of
these orders. See Continuation of
Antidumping Duty Orders: Certain
Bearings From France, Germany, Italy,
Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom,
and the People’s Republic of China, 65
FR 42665 (July 11, 2000). Pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.218, the Department initiated and
the International Trade Commission
(ITC) instituted the second sunset
review of the order on spherical plain
bearings and parts thereof from France
and the order on ball bearings and parts
thereof from Singapore on June 1, 2005.
See Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Reviews, 70 FR 31423 (June 1, 2005);
Certain Bearings From China, France,
Germany, Italy, Japan, Singapore, and
the United Kingdom, 70 FR 31531 (June
1, 2005). As a result of its review, the
Department found that revocation of the
orders would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping and notified

likely to prevail were the orders to be

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act
that revocation of the antidumping duty
order on spherical plain bearings and
parts thereof from France and the order
on ball bearings and parts thereof from
Singapore would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. See Certain Bearings From China,

Determination to Revoke
As a result of the determination by the
ITC that revocation of these
antidumping duty orders is not likely to
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the
United States, the Department is
revoking the orders on spherical plain
bearings and parts thereof from France
and on ball bearings and parts thereof
from Singapore, pursuant to section
751(d) of the Act. Pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.222(i)(2)(i), the effective date of
revocation is July 11, 2005 (i.e., the fifth
anniversary of the date of publication in
the Federal Register of the notice of
continuation of the antidumping duty
orders). The Department will notify U.S.
Customs and Border Protection to
discontinue suspension of liquidation
and collection of cash deposits on
entries of the subject merchandise
entered or withdrawn from warehouse
on or after July 11, 2005, the effective
date of revocation of the antidumping
duty orders. The Department will
complete any pending administrative
reviews of these orders and will conduct
administrative reviews of subject
merchandise entered prior to the
effective date of revocation in response
to appropriately filed requests for
review.
