Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 1 / Wednesday, January 3, 2007 / Notices
with the Department’s regulations
regarding format, translation, service,
and certification of documents. These
rules can be found at 19 CFR 351.303.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.103(c), the
Department will maintain and make
available a service list for these
proceedings. To facilitate the timely
preparation of the service list(s), it is
requested that those seeking recognition
as interested parties to a proceeding
contact the Department in writing
within 10 days of the publication of the
Notice of Initiation.Because deadlines in
Sunset Reviews can be very short, we
urge interested parties to apply for
access to proprietary information under
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
immediately following publication in
the Federal Register of the notice of
initiation of the sunset review. The
Department’s regulations on submission
of proprietary information and
eligibility to receive access to business
proprietary information under APO can
be found at 19 CFR 351.304–306.
Information Required from Interested
Parties
Domestic interested parties (defined
in section 771(9)(C), (D), (E), (F), and (G)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.102(b))
wishing to participate in these Sunset
Reviews must respond not later than 15
days after the date of publication in the
Federal Register of this notice of
initiation by filing a notice of intent to
participate. The required contents of the
notice of intent to participate are set
forth at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(ii). In
accordance with the Department’s
regulations, if we do not receive a notice
of intent to participate from at least one
domestic interested party by the 15-day
deadline, the Department will
automatically revoke the orders without
further review. See 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(iii).
For sunset reviews of countervailing
duty orders, parties wishing the
Department to consider arguments that
countervailable subsidy programs have
been terminated must include with their
substantive responses information and
documentation addressing whether the
changes to the program were (1) limited
to an individual firm or firms and (2)
effected by an official act of the
government. Further, a party claiming
program termination is expected to
document that there are no residual
benefits under the program and that
substitute programs have not been
introduced. Cf. 19 CFR 351.526(b) and
(d). If a party maintains that any of the
subsidies countervailed by the
Department were not conferred
pursuant to a subsidy program, that
party should nevertheless address the
applicability of the factors set forth in
19 CFR 351.526(b) and (d). Similarly,
parties wishing the Department to
consider whether a company’s change
in ownership has extinguished the
benefit from prior non–recurring,
allocable, subsidies must include with
their substantive responses information
and documentation supporting their
claim that all or almost all of the
company’s shares or assets were sold in
an arm’s length transaction, at a price
representing fair market value, as
described in the Notice of Final
Modification of Agency Practice Under
Section 123 of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act, 68 FR 37125 (June 23,
2003) (Modification Notice). See
Modification Notice for a discussion of
the types of information and
documentation the Department requires.
If we receive an order–specific notice
of intent to participate from a domestic
interested party, the Department’s
regulations provide that all parties
wishing to participate in the Sunset
Review must file complete substantive
responses not later than 30 days after
the date of publication in the Federal
Register of this notice of initiation. The
required contents of a substantive
response, on an order–specific basis, are
set forth at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3). Note
that certain information requirements
differ for respondent and domestic
parties. Also, note that the Department’s
information requirements are distinct
from the Commission’s information
requirements. Please consult the
Department’s regulations for
information regarding the Department’s
conduct of Sunset Reviews.1 Please
consult the Department’s regulations at
19 CFR Part 351 for definitions of terms
and for other general information
concerning antidumping and
countervailing duty proceedings at the
Department.
This notice of initiation is being
published in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c).
Dated: December 21, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On September 28, 2005, the U.S.
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) published a notice of
initiation of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on
corrosion–resistant carbon steel flat
products from Korea, covering the
period August 1, 2004 to July 31, 2005.
See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Request for Revocation in
Part, 70 FR 56631 (September 28, 2005).
On September 11, 2006, the Department
published the preliminary results of this
review. See Certain Corrosion–Resistant
Carbon Steel Flat Products from the
Republic of Korea: Notice of Preliminary
Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 71 FR 53370
(September 11, 2006). The final results
of this review are currently due no later
than January 9, 2007.
Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue final
results within 120 days after the date on
which the preliminary results are
published. However, if it is not
practicable to complete the review
within that time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend the time limit for
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the final results to a maximum of 180
days. See also 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).
We determine that it is not practicable
to complete the final results of this
review within the original time limit
because we need additional time to
evaluate arguments and information
submitted by the parties with respect to
model–match methodology, indirect
selling expenses, constructed export
price offsets and duty drawback.
Therefore, the Department is extending
fully the time limit for the final results
of the above–referenced review. As that
date falls on a Saturday, the final results
will be due no later than the next
business day, Monday, March 12, 2007.
This extension is in accordance with
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213(h)(2).
Dated: December 22, 2006.

SUMMARY: In response to requests from
interested parties, the Department of
Commerce (the Department) is
conducting the fourth administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on honey from the People’s Republic of
China (PRC). The period of review
(POR) is December 1, 2004, through
November 30, 2005. We preliminarily
determine that four companies have
failed to cooperate by not acting to the
best of their ability to comply with our
requests for information and, as a result,
should be assigned a rate based on
adverse facts available. We have also
preliminarily determined that a fifth
respondent made sales to the United
