SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) is conducting new
shipper antidumping duty reviews of
freshwater crawfish tail meat from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) in
response to requests by Nanjing Merry
Trading Co., Ltd. (‘‘Nanjing Merry’’),
Leping Lotai Foods Co., Ltd. (‘‘Leping
Lotai’’), Weishan Hongrun Aquatic Co.,
Ltd. (‘‘Weishan Hongrun’’), and
Shanghai Strong International Trading
Co., Ltd. (‘‘Shanghai Strong’’). These
reviews cover shipments to the United
States for the period September 1, 2005,
to February 28, 2006, by these four
respondents. For the reasons discussed
below, we are extending the preliminary
results of the new shipper reviews of
Nanjing Merry, Leping Lotai, and
Weishan Hongrun by an additional 90
days, and the new shipper review of
Shanghai Strong by an additional 65
days, to no later than January 23, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department received timely
requests from Nanjing Merry, Leping
Lotai, Weishan Hongrun, and Shanghai
Strong in accordance with 19 CFR
351.214(c) for new shipper reviews of
the antidumping duty order on
freshwater crawfish tail meat from the
PRC. On May 5, 2006, the Department
found that the requests for review with
respect to Nanjing Merry, Leping Lotai,
and Weishan Hongrun met all of the
regulatory requirements set forth in 19
CFR 351.214(b) and initiated these new
shipper antidumping duty reviews
covering the period September 1, 2005,
through February 28, 2006. See
Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat From the
People’s Republic of China: Initiation of
Antidumping Duty New Shipper
Reviews, 71 FR 26453 (May 5, 2006).
On May 31, 2006, the Department
found that the request for review with
respect to Shanghai Strong met all of the
regulatory requirements set forth in 19
CFR 351.214(b) and initiated a new
shipper antidumping duty review
covering the period September 1, 2005,
through February 28, 2006. See
Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat From the
People’s Republic of China: Initiation of
Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review,
71 FR 30866 (May 31, 2006).
Extension of Time Limits for
Preliminary Results
Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and
19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the
Department to issue the preliminary
results of a new shipper review within
180 days after the date on which the
new shipper review was initiated and
final results of a review within 90 days
after the date on which the preliminary
results were issued. The Department
may, however, extend the deadline for
completion of the preliminary results of
a new shipper review to 300 days if it
determines that the case is
extraordinarily complicated (19 CFR
351.214 (i)(2)).
The Department has determined that
the review is extraordinarily
complicated as the Department must
gather additional publicly available
information, issue additional
supplemental questionnaires, and
conduct verifications of the four
respondents. Based on the timing of the
case and the additional information that
must be gathered and verified, the
preliminary results of this new shipper
review cannot be completed within the
E:\FR\FM\11OCN1.SGM
11OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 196 / Wednesday, October 11, 2006 / Notices
statutory time limit of 180 days.
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for the
completion of the preliminary results of
the new shipper reviews of Nanjing
Merry, Leping Lotai, and Weishan
Hongrun by 90 days from the original
October 25, 2006, deadline.
Additionally, the Department is
extending the time limit for the
completion of the preliminary results of
the new shipper review of Shanghai
Strong by 65 days from the original
November 19, 2006, deadline. The
preliminary results for all four new
shipper reviews will now be due
January 23, 2007, in accordance with
section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.214(i)(2). The final results will,
in turn, be due 90 days after the date of
issuance of the preliminary results,
unless extended.
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and 777(i)(1) of
the Act.

review. We will issue the final results of
review no later than 120 days from the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 15, 1998, the
Department published in the Federal
Register the antidumping duty order on
SSWR from Korea. See Notice of
Amendment of Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value and
Antidumping Duty Order: Stainless
Steel Wire Rod From Korea, 63 FR
49331 (September 15, 1998) (‘‘Amended
Final Determination’’) and Stainless

Amendment of Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value Pursuant
to Court Decision, 66 FR 41550 (August
8, 2001) (‘‘Amended Final
Determination Pursuant to Court
Decision’’).2 In September 2005, the
Department published in the Federal
Register a notice of ‘‘Opportunity to
Request Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order on SSWR from
Korea. See Antidumping or
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
to Request Administrative Review, 70
FR 52072 ( September 1, 2005).
On September 30, 2005, in accordance
with 19 CFR § 351.213(b)(1), the
Domestic Interested Parties requested
that the Department conduct a review of
Changwon and Dongbang Special Steel
Co., Ltd. (‘‘Dongbang’’), and any of their
affiliates (collectively, as a collapsed
entity, the ‘‘Respondents’’ or
‘‘Changwon/Dongbang’’) for the period
2 In the Amended Final Determination Pursuant
To Court Decision, the Department reclassified
Changwon Specialty Steel Co., Ltd.’s (‘‘Changwon’’)
U.S. sales as constructed export price (‘‘CEP’’) sales
and recalculated the dumping margin for the
collapsed entity which included Changwon. As a
result of the recalculation, the ‘‘all others’’ rate also
changed. See Amended Final Determination
Pursuant To Court Decision, 66 FR at 41550.

from September 1, 2004, through August
31, 2005. See the ‘‘Collapsing of
Respondents’’ section of this notice
below.
In October 2005, the Department
initiated an administrative review of the
Respondents. See Initiation of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 70 FR 61601
(October 25, 2005). Also in October, the
Department issued its antidumping
questionnaire to the Respondents, and
in December 2005, the Respondents
responded to this questionnaire.
Thereafter, the Department issued
supplemental questionnaires to the
Respondents - to which the Department
received timely responses- and the
Domestic Interested Parties submitted
comments regarding the Respondents’
questionnaire and supplemental
questionnaire responses.
In May 2006, the Department
extended the deadline for issuing the
preliminary results in this
administrative review until October 2,
2006. See Stainless Steel Wire Rod from
the Republic of Korea: Notice of
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 71 FR 30658
(May 30, 2006).
The Department is conducting this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the ‘‘Act’’).
Collapsing of Respondents
In the less–than-fair value (‘‘LTFV’’)
investigation in this proceeding, the
Department determined that Pohang
Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. (‘‘POSCO’’), and
its subsidiary, Changwon, were
affiliated with Dongbang through a close
supplier relationship and that all three
companies should be treated as one
entity (collapsed). See Notice of Final
Determination of Sales at Less than Fair
Value: Stainless Steel Wire Rod from
Korea, 63 FR 40404, 40408 (July 29,
1998) (‘‘Final Determination’’)
(Comment 2). The Department found a
close supplier relationship between
POSCO/Changwon and Dongbang based
on the fact that Dongbang, whose
operations were almost exclusively
dependent upon finishing unfinished
SSWR (also known as black coil), was
not able to obtain suitable black coil
from sources other than POSCO/
Changwon. See Memorandum from the
Team to Holly Kuga regarding:
‘‘Whether Pohang Iron and Steel Co.,
Ltd. (POSCO), and its subsidiary
Changwon Specialty Steel Co., Ltd.
(Changwon), are affiliated with
Dongbang Special Steel Co., Ltd.
(Dongbang). Whether to collapse

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``Department'') is conducting new

the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') in response to requests by
Nanjing Merry Trading Co., Ltd. (``Nanjing Merry''), Leping Lotai Foods

four respondents. For the reasons discussed below, we are extending the
preliminary results of the new shipper reviews of Nanjing Merry, Leping
Lotai, and Weishan Hongrun by an additional 90 days, and the new
shipper review of Shanghai Strong by an additional 65 days, to no later
than January 23, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department received timely requests from Nanjing Merry, Leping
Lotai, Weishan Hongrun, and Shanghai Strong in accordance with 19 CFR
351.214(c) for new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on
freshwater crawfish tail meat from the PRC. On May 5, 2006, the
Department found that the requests for review with respect to Nanjing
Merry, Leping Lotai, and Weishan Hongrun met all of the regulatory
requirements set forth in 19 CFR 351.214(b) and initiated these new
shipper antidumping duty reviews covering the period September 1, 2005,
through February 28, 2006. See Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat From the
People's Republic of China: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper
Reviews, 71 FR 26453 (May 5, 2006).
On May 31, 2006, the Department found that the request for review
with respect to Shanghai Strong met all of the regulatory requirements
set forth in 19 CFR 351.214(b) and initiated a new shipper antidumping
duty review covering the period September 1, 2005, through February 28,
2006. See Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat From the People's Republic of
China: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review, 71 FR 30866
(May 31, 2006).
Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results
Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act), and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the Department to issue the
preliminary results of a new shipper review within 180 days after the
date on which the new shipper review was initiated and final results of
a review within 90 days after the date on which the preliminary results
were issued. The Department may, however, extend the deadline for
completion of the preliminary results of a new shipper review to 300
days if it determines that the case is extraordinarily complicated (19
CFR 351.214 (i)(2)).
The Department has determined that the review is extraordinarily
complicated as the Department must gather additional publicly available
information, issue additional supplemental questionnaires, and conduct
verifications of the four respondents. Based on the timing of the case
and the additional information that must be gathered and verified, the
preliminary results of this new shipper review cannot be completed
within the
[[Page 59739]]
statutory time limit of 180 days. Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for the completion of the preliminary results
of the new shipper reviews of Nanjing Merry, Leping Lotai, and Weishan
Hongrun by 90 days from the original October 25, 2006, deadline.
Additionally, the Department is extending the time limit for the
completion of the preliminary results of the new shipper review of
Shanghai Strong by 65 days from the original November 19, 2006,
deadline. The preliminary results for all four new shipper reviews will
now be due January 23, 2007, in accordance with section
751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). The final results
will, in turn, be due 90 days after the date of issuance of the
preliminary results, unless extended.
This notice is published pursuant to sections 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and
777(i)(1) of the Act.
