Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 42 / Monday, March 5, 2007 / Notices
2006) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’). In our
Preliminary Results, we determined that
revocation of the order would likely
result in continuation or recurrence of
dumping with a margin of 41.69 percent
for the all others rate, including Mittal
Steel Kryviy Rih and Krivorozhstal Steel
Works. We did not receive a case brief
on behalf of either domestic or
respondent interested parties within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.309(c)(1)(i).
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
all steel concrete reinforcing bars sold in
straight lengths, currently classifiable in
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) under item
numbers 7214.20.00, 7228.30.8050,
7222.11.0050, 7222.30.0000,
7228.60.6000, 7228.20.1000, or any
other tariff item number. Specifically
excluded are plain rounds (i.e., non–
deformed or smooth bars) and rebar that
has been further processed through
bending or coating.
HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes. The
written description of the scope of the
order is dispositive.
Analysis of Comments Received
The Department did not receive case
briefs from either domestic or
respondent interested parties. Therefore,
we have not made any changes to our
Preliminary Results.
Final Results of Review
We determine that revocation of the
antidumping duty order on rebar from
Ukraine would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at the following weighted–average
margin:

1 As
of February 1, 2006, Ukraine graduated to market economy status. See Final Results of Inquiry Into Ukraine’s Status as a Non-Market
Economy Country, 71 FR 9520 (February 24, 2006). As a result, the Ukraine wide rate is now the All Others rate. Mittal Steel is considered part
of the all others rate because a successor-in-interest determination has not been made. See, e.g., Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel Plate from Belgium, Brazil, Finland, Germany, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom and Carbon Steel Plate from Taiwan; Second Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews of Antidumping Duty Orders and Antidumping Finding; Final Results, 71 FR 11577, 11579 (March 8, 2006) (explaining that Duferco is subject to the all others rate because the Department had not yet conducted a changed circumstances review to determine the successor-in-interest to Forges de Clabecq, S.A.).
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
of their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely
notification of return/destruction of
APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and the terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(c), 752(c), and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
