company operates as the same business
entity as the former company, the
Department will accord the new
company the same antidumping duty
treatment as its predecessor.
Taking each condition in order, we
begin with management. Ivaco reported
that the key management personnel of
both Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P. and Sivaco
Ontario are identical to the management
of each company after the acquisition.
See Supplemental Questionnaire
Response of Ivaco, at 1 and Appendices
1 and 2 (November 20, 2006). We find
that the management structure has
remained unchanged.
Second, we looked at the production
facilities for subject merchandise. Ivaco
explained that there have been no
material changes to its operations or the
way it produces or sells subject
merchandise after the acquisition. See
Section A Response, at Volume 1, page
A–10 (January 12, 2006). We find that
Ivaco’s productions facilities have not
changed as a result of the acquisition.
Third, we reviewed the supplier
relationships before and after the change
in ownership. Ivaco provided Ivaco
Rolling Mills L.P.’s accounts payable
records of its top 50 suppliers for the
three month period leading up to the
acquisition and the three month period
immediately following the acquisition.
Based on a comparison of these supplier
lists, we determine that the vast
majority of the suppliers are the same.
Ivaco explained that the few supplier
changes that did occur simply reflected
changes in suppliers that take place in
the normal course of business. Ivaco
also provided Sivaco Ontario’s accounts
payable records of its top 10 suppliers
for the same time periods. In this case,
the suppliers are almost identical. See
Supplemental Questionnaire Response
of Ivaco, at 1–2 and Appendices 3 and
4 (November 20, 2006).
Fourth, we reviewed the customer
base and find that the customer base is
almost identical for both companies
before and after the acquisition. Ivaco
explained that the small changes that
did occur in the customer base
happened in the normal course of
business. See Supplemental
Questionnaire Response of Ivaco, at 2–
3 and Appendices 5–7 (November 20,
2006).
In addition, we requested information
about Ivaco’s marketing and sales of
products before and after the
acquisition. Ivaco provided the
distribution process and sales process
from the 2003–2004 review, as well as
the 2004–2005 review. We found that
the processes remained unchanged. See
Supplemental Questionnaire Response
of Ivaco, at 3 and Appendix 8
VerDate Aug<31>2005
17:54 Dec 13, 2006
Jkt 211000
(November 20, 2006). Further, Ivaco
noted that products and services
continue to be marketed under the Ivaco
name because the Ivaco name was
among the assets purchased by the
entity. See Supplemental Questionnaire
Response of Ivaco, at Volume 1, page 2
(July 7, 2006).
In summary, Ivaco reported that its
acquisition did not meaningfully affect
the production facilities, supplier
relationships, customer base,
management, marketing or sale of
products and services by Ivaco Rolling
Mills 2004 L.P. or Sivaco Wire Group
2004 L.P. Moreover, there have been no
material changes to Ivaco’s operations or
the way it produces and sells subject
merchandise resulting from the
acquisition.
Based on Ivaco’s evidence of the
change in ownership and absent any
other record evidence that would
contradict Ivaco’s statements, we
preliminarily determine that Ivaco
Rolling Mills 2004 L.P., and Sivaco Wire
Group 2004 L.P. are the successor–ininterest to Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P. and
Ivaco Inc. As a result, Ivaco Rolling
Mills 2004 L.P., and Sivaco Ontario, a
division of Sivaco Wire Group 2004
L.P., (collectively ‘‘Ivaco’’) should
receive the same antidumping duty
treatment with respect to carbon and
certain alloy steel wire rod from Canada
as Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P. and Ivaco
Inc., respectively.
If the above preliminary results are
affirmed in the Department’s final
results, the cash deposit rate most
recently calculated for Ivaco Rolling
Mills L.P. and Ivaco Inc. will apply to
all entries of subject merchandise by
Ivaco Rolling Mills 2004 L.P., and
Sivaco Ontario, a division of Sivaco
Wire Group 2004 L.P., entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication of the final results of this
changed circumstances review. See, e.g.,
Granular Polytetraflouroethylene Resin
from Italy; Final Results of Antidumping
Duty Changed Circumstances Review,
68 FR 25327 (May 12, 2003). This
deposit rate shall remain in effect until
publication of the final results of the
next administrative review in which
Ivaco participates.

SUMMARY: On September 11, 2006, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
results of the antidumping (AD)
administrative review on certain cut–tolength carbon steel plate (CTL Plate)
from Germany. The period of review
(POR) is August 1, 2004, through July
31, 2005. See Certain Cut–to-Length
Carbon Steel Plate from Germany:
Notice of Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 71 FR 53382 (September 11,
2006) (Preliminary Results). This review
covers AG der Dillinger Huttenwerke,
manufacturer of the subject
merchandise, and its U.S. affiliate,
Arcelor International America, LLC
(AIA) (collectively, Dillinger).
Though Dillinger submitted
comments, they did not warrant
reconsideration of our preliminary
results; therefore, our final results
remain unchanged from our preliminary
results. The final results are listed in the
section Final Results of Review below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 11, 2006, the
Department published the preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the AD order on CTL Plate from
Germany. See Preliminary Results, 71
FR 53382. This review covers imports of
CTL Plate from Dillinger during the
POR, August 1, 2004, through July 31,
2005. We invited interested parties to
comment on the Preliminary Results.
On October 11, 2006, Dillinger
commented that the Department should
not make any changes to its Preliminary
Results, and that the Department should
continue to calculate a de minimis
margin in the final. Alternatively,
Dillinger stated that if the Department
does make any adjustments that would
increase the dumping margin above de
minimis, then the Department should
consider a list of suggestions or issues
that Dillinger set forth. The petitioners
did not comment on the Preliminary
Results. Because the Department is not
changing its preliminary results, we
have not addressed Dillinger’s
alternative suggestions.

SUMMARY: On September 11, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary results of the antidumping (AD)
administrative review on certain cut-to-length carbon steel plate (CTL
Plate) from Germany. The period of review (POR) is August 1, 2004,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 11, 2006, the Department published the preliminary
results of the administrative review of the AD order on CTL Plate from
Germany. See Preliminary Results, 71 FR 53382. This review covers
imports of CTL Plate from Dillinger during the POR, August 1, 2004,
through July 31, 2005. We invited interested parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results.
On October 11, 2006, Dillinger commented that the Department should
not make any changes to its Preliminary Results, and that the
Department should continue to calculate a de minimis margin in the
final. Alternatively, Dillinger stated that if the Department does make
any adjustments that would increase the dumping margin above de
minimis, then the Department should consider a list of suggestions or
issues that Dillinger set forth. The petitioners did not comment on the
Preliminary Results. Because the Department is not changing its
preliminary results, we have not addressed Dillinger's alternative
suggestions.
Scope of the Order
This order covers hot-rolled carbon steel universal mill plates
(i.e., flat-rolled products rolled on four faces or in a closed box
pass, of a width exceeding 150 millimeters but not exceeding 1,250
millimeters and of a thickness of not less than 4 millimeters, not in
coils and without patterns in relief), of rectangular shape, neither
clad, plated, nor coated with metal, whether or not painted, varnished,
or coated with plastics or other nonmetallic substances; and certain
hot-rolled carbon steel flat-rolled products in straight lengths, of
rectangular shape, hot rolled, neither clad, plated, nor coated with
metal, whether or not painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or
other nonmetallic substances, 4.75 millimeters or more in thickness and
of a width which exceeds 150 millimeters and measures at least twice
the thickness, as currently classifiable in the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) under item numbers 7208.40.3030,
7208.40.3060, 7208.51.0030, 7208.51.0045, 7208.51.0060, 7208.52.0000,

7212.50.0000. Included in the order are flat-rolled products of non-
rectangular cross-section where such cross-section is achieved
subsequent to the rolling process (i.e., products which have been
``worked after rolling'') for example, products which have been beveled
or rounded at the edges. Excluded from this order is grade X-70 plate.
Also excluded is certain carbon cut-to-length steel plate with a
maximum thickness of 80 mm in steel grades BS 7191, 355 EM, and 355
EMZ, as amended by Sable Offshore Energy Project specification XB MOO Y
15 0001 types 1 and 2.
These HTSUS item numbers are provided for convenience and customs
purposes. The written descriptions remain dispositive.
Final Results of Review
As noted above, there have been no changes from the Preliminary
Results, therefore, we are not attaching a Decision Memorandum to this
Federal Register notice. For further details of the issues addressed in
this proceeding, see the Preliminary Results.
As a result of this review, we find that the following weighted-
average dumping margin exists:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-Average
Producer/Manufacturer Margin

Assessment Rates
The Department will determine, and Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries,
pursuant to section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.212(b). The Department calculated importer-
specific duty assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total
antidumping duties calculated for the examined sales to the total
entered value of the examined sales for that importer. Where the
assessment rate is above de minimis, we will instruct CBP to assess
duties on all entries of subject merchandise by that importer. The
Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of these final results of review.
The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on
May 6, 2003 (68 FR 23954). This clarification will apply to entries of
subject merchandise during the POR produced by Dillinger where
Dillinger did not know its merchandise was destined for the United
States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this
clarification, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
Cash Deposit Requirements
Furthermore, the following deposit requirements will be effective
upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for
all shipments of CTL Plate from Germany entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of these
final results, as provided by section 751(a) of the Act: (1) for the
company covered by this review, the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2)
for merchandise exported by producers or exporters not covered in this
review, but covered in the investigation, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate established in the final
determination; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review
or the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the producer is, the
cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the producer of the
subject merchandise for the most recent period; and (4) if neither the
exporter nor the producer is a firm covered in this review or the less-
than-fair-value investigation, the cash deposit rate will be 36.00
percent, the ``All Others'' rate established in the less-than-fair-
value investigation. See Antidumping Duty Orders and Amendments to
Final Determinations of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Certain Hot-
Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products, Certain Cold-Rolled Carbon Steel
Flat Products, Certain Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat Products,
and Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel Plate From Germany, 58 FR 44170
(August 19, 1993). These deposit requirements shall remain in effect
until publication of the final results of the next administrative
review.
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402 (f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries
[[Page 75233]]
during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement
could result in the presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/
or countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent increase in
antidumping duties by the amount of antidumping and/or countervailing
duties reimbursed.
Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written
notification of the return/destruction of APO materials or conversion
to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation that is subject
to sanction.
We are issuing and publishing these results and notice in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: December 7, 2006.
