SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES I. Abstract The Transactions of U.S. Affiliates, Except a U.S. Banking Affiliate, with Foreign Parent (Form BE–605) and Transactions of U.S. Banking Affiliate with Foreign Parent (Form BE–605 Bank) obtain quarterly sample data on transactions and positions between foreign-owned U.S. business enterprises and their ‘‘affiliated foreign groups’’ (i.e., their foreign parents and foreign affiliates of their foreign parents). The data collected are used in the preparation of the U.S. international transactions accounts, national income and product accounts, and input-output accounts. The data are needed to measure the amount of foreign direct investment in the United States, monitor changes in such investment, assess its impact on the U.S. and foreign economies and, based upon this assessment, make informed policy decisions regarding foreign direct investment in the United States. BEA proposes the following changes to the survey to reduce respondent burden: (1) Redesign Form BE–605 to incorporate all instructions into the form, placing them, for the most part, on the pages facing the items to be reported; convert the most complicated instructions into separate line item questions; and, to further clarify the reporting requirements, include illustrative diagrams adjacent to questions pertaining to the ownership structure of the U.S. business enterprise and its affiliated foreign groups. (2) Delete questions from Form BE–605 and BE–605 Bank requesting information on receipts and payments for services transactions between the U.S. business enterprise and its affiliated foreign groups. BEA will propose to include these questions on its surveys covering trade in services, beginning with the first quarter of calendar year 2007. VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:45 Oct 03, 2006 Jkt 211001 II. Method of Collection Forms BE–605 and BE–605 Bank are quarterly reports that must be filed within 30 days after the end of each quarter (45 days after the final quarter of the respondent’s fiscal year) by every U.S. business enterprise that is owned 10 percent or more by a foreign investor and that has total assets, sales or gross operating revenues, or net income (positive or negative) of over $30 million. Potential respondents are those U.S. business enterprises that were required to report in the BE–12, Benchmark Survey of Foreign Direct Investment in the United States—2002, along with those U.S. business enterprises that subsequently entered the direct investment universe. The data collected are sample data covering transactions and positions between foreign-owned U.S. business enterprises and their affiliated foreign groups. Universe estimates are developed from the reported sample data. III. Data OMB Number: 0608–0009. Form Number: BE–605/BE–605 Bank. Type of Review: Regular submission. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit organizations. Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,950 per quarter; 15,800 annually. Estimated Time Per Response: 1 hour. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 15,800. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $632,000 (based on an estimated reporting burden of 15,800 hours and an estimated hourly cost of $40). IV. Request for Comments Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden (including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval of this information collection; they also will become a matter of public record.

SUMMARY: On June 7, 2006, the U.S. Department of Commerce (the Department) published preliminary results in the new shipper reviews of the antidumping order on honey from the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Honey from the People’s Republic of China: Intent to Rescind and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Reviews, 71 FR 32923 (June 7, 2006) (NSR7 Preliminary Results). These reviews cover two exporters, Shanghai Taiside Trading Co., Ltd. (Taiside) and Wuhan Shino– Food Trade Co., Ltd. (Shino–Food). The period of review (POR) is December 1, 2004, through May 31, 2005. While we have analyzed the record and comments from interested parties, we have made no changes to the preliminary results based on these comments. However, we have made a slight change to the calculation of Taiside’s margin based on the discovery of a clerical error. For these final results, therefore, we have determined that the new shipper review for Shino–Food should be rescinded because the sale made by Shino–Food was not bona fide. We have also determined that the sale made by Taiside is bona fide and that the sale has been made below normal value. EFFECTIVE DATE: October 4, 2006.

Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the briefs are addressed in the ‘‘Memorandum to the Assistant Secretary: Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the 2004–2005 New Shipper Reviews of Honey from the People’s Republic of China,’’ dated September 27, 2006 (Issues & Decision Memorandum), which is hereby adopted by this notice.

In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Web at https://www.trade.gov/ia/ . The paper copy and electronic version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. New Shipper Status For these final results, no party contested the bona fides of Taiside’s sale, therefore we continue to find, as in the NSR7 Preliminary Results, that Taiside has met the requirements to qualify as a new shipper during the POR and that Taiside’s sale of honey to the United States is an appropriate transaction for a new shipper review. Regarding Shino–Food, as further discussed in the Issues & Decision Memorandum at Comments 1–1c, we are continuing to find that Shino–Food’s sale in question was not a bona fide sale and that Shino–Food did not meet the requirements to qualify for a new shipper review during the POR. See NSR7 Preliminary Results and ‘‘Rescission of New Shipper Review,’’ below. Rescission of New Shipper Review As discussed in the Issues & Decision Memorandum at Comments 1–1c, because the Department found Shino– Food’s single POR sale to be non–bona fide, it is not subject to review. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this review because Shino–Food had no reviewable sales during the POR. See Tianjin Tiancheng Pharmaceutical Co., PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Ltd. v. United States, 366 F. Supp. 2d 1246, 1249 (CIT 2005) (‘‘{P}ursuant to the rulings of the Court, Commerce may exclude sales from the export price calculation where it finds that they are not bona fide’’). Changes since the NSR7 Preliminary Results We have not made any changes to the margin–specific calculations for Taiside based on comments received from interested parties. However, for these final results, instead of rounding Taiside’s gross unit price to two digits after the decimal point, as we did in the preliminary results, we used a more exact gross unit price from Taiside’s reported Section C database, which included four digits after the decimal point. This affected the margin calculation for Taiside. For a discussion of this change, please see ‘‘Memorandum to the File: Seventh Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Honey from the People’s Republic of China for Shanghai Taiside Trading Co., Ltd. (Taiside),’’ dated September 27, 2006 (Taiside Analysis Memo). Final Results of Review We determine that the following antidumping duty margin exists: Exporter Shanghai Taiside Trading Co., Ltd. .......................................... Margin (percent) 39.63% For details on the calculation of the antidumping duty weighted–average margin for Taiside, see Taiside Analysis Memo. A public version of this memorandum is on file in the CRU. Assessment Rates Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department will determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. The Department will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP within 15 days of publication of these final results of review. For assessment purposes, where possible, we calculated importer– specific assessment rates for honey from the PRC on a per–unit basis. Specifically, we divided the total dumping margins (calculated as the difference between normal value and export price or constructed export price) for each importer by the total quantity of subject merchandise sold to that importer during the POR to calculate a per–unit assessment amount. We will direct CBP to levy importer–specific assessment rates based on the resulting per–unit (i.e., per–kilogram) rates by the E:\FR\FM\04OCN1.SGM 04OCN1 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 192 / Wednesday, October 4, 2006 / Notices weight in kilograms of each entry of the subject merchandise during the POR. Cash Deposits The following cash–deposit requirement will be effective upon publication of these final results for shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For subject merchandise produced and exported by Taiside, we will establish a per–kilogram cash deposit rate that is equivalent to the company–specific cash deposit established in this review. With respect to these reviews, the Department will also notify CBP that a cash deposit of 212.39 percent ad valorem should be collected for any entries produced/ exported by Shino–Food. These deposit requirements shall remain in effect until publication of the final results of the next administrative review. Notification to Interested Parties This notice also serves as the final reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Secretary’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and in the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return/destruction or conversion to judicial protective order of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Failure to comply is a violation of the APO. These new shipper reviews and this notice are published in accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: September 27, 2006.

Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in the briefs are addressed in the ``Memorandum 
to the Assistant Secretary: Issues and Decision Memorandum for the 
Final Results of the 2004-2005 New Shipper Reviews of Honey from the 
People's Republic of China,'' dated September 27, 2006 (Issues & 
Decision Memorandum), which is hereby adopted by this notice. A list of 
the issues raised, all of which are in the Issues and Decision 
Memorandum, is attached to this notice as Appendix I. Parties can find 
a complete discussion of all issues raised in the briefs and the 
corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum which is on 
file in the Central Records Unit (CRU), room B-099 of the Department of 
Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Web at https://
www.trade.gov/ia/. The paper copy and electronic version of the Issues 
and Decision Memorandum are identical in content.

New Shipper Status

    For these final results, no party contested the bona fides of 
Taiside's sale, therefore we continue to find, as in the NSR7 
Preliminary Results, that Taiside has met the requirements to qualify 
as a new shipper during the POR and that Taiside's sale of honey to the 
United States is an appropriate transaction for a new shipper review. 
Regarding Shino-Food, as further discussed in the Issues & Decision 
Memorandum at Comments 1-1c, we are continuing to find that Shino-
Food's sale in question was not a bona fide sale and that Shino-Food 
did not meet the requirements to qualify for a new shipper review 
during the POR. See NSR7 Preliminary Results and ``Rescission of New 
Shipper Review,'' below.

Rescission of New Shipper Review

    As discussed in the Issues & Decision Memorandum at Comments 1-1c, 
because the Department found Shino-Food's single POR sale to be non-
bona fide, it is not subject to review. Therefore, the Department is 
rescinding this review because Shino-Food had no reviewable sales 
during the POR. See Tianjin Tiancheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. v. 
United States, 366 F. Supp. 2d 1246, 1249 (CIT 2005) 
(``{P{time} ursuant to the rulings of the Court, Commerce may exclude 
sales from the export price calculation where it finds that they are 
not bona fide'').

Changes since the NSR7 Preliminary Results

    We have not made any changes to the margin-specific calculations 
for Taiside based on comments received from interested parties. 
However, for these final results, instead of rounding Taiside's gross 
unit price to two digits after the decimal point, as we did in the 
preliminary results, we used a more exact gross unit price from 
Taiside's reported Section C database, which included four digits after 
the decimal point. This affected the margin calculation for Taiside. 
For a discussion of this change, please see ``Memorandum to the File: 
Seventh Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review of the Antidumping Duty 
Order on Honey from the People's Republic of China for Shanghai Taiside 
Trading Co., Ltd. (Taiside),'' dated September 27, 2006 (Taiside 
Analysis Memo).

    We determine that the following antidumping duty margin exists:

    For details on the calculation of the antidumping duty weighted-
average margin for Taiside, see Taiside Analysis Memo. A public version 
of this memorandum is on file in the CRU.

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department will determine, and 
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. The 
Department will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to 
CBP within 15 days of publication of these final results of review. For 
assessment purposes, where possible, we calculated importer-specific 
assessment rates for honey from the PRC on a per-unit basis. 
Specifically, we divided the total dumping margins (calculated as the 
difference between normal value and export price or constructed export 
price) for each importer by the total quantity of subject merchandise 
sold to that importer during the POR to calculate a per-unit assessment 
amount. We will direct CBP to levy importer-specific assessment rates 
based on the resulting per-unit (i.e., per-kilogram) rates by the

weight in kilograms of each entry of the subject merchandise during the 
POR.

Cash Deposits

    The following cash-deposit requirement will be effective upon 
publication of these final results for shipments of the subject 
merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or 
after the publication date of the final results, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For 
subject merchandise produced and exported by Taiside, we will establish 
a per-kilogram cash deposit rate that is equivalent to the company-
specific cash deposit established in this review. With respect to these 
reviews, the Department will also notify CBP that a cash deposit of 
212.39 percent ad valorem should be collected for any entries produced/
exported by Shino-Food. These deposit requirements shall remain in 
effect until publication of the final results of the next 
administrative review.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice also serves as the final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 
the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the 
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and in the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return/destruction or conversion to judicial protective 
order of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 
19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Failure to comply is a violation of the APO.
    These new shipper reviews and this notice are published in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: September 27, 2006.
James C. Leonard, III
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
