goods; and the profit rate as a
percentage of the cost of manufacture
plus SG&A and traded goods. See
Surrogate Value Memorandum for a full
discussion of the calculation of these
ratios.
For packing materials, we used the
per–kilogram values obtained from the
Indian WTA import data and made
adjustments to account for freight costs
incurred between the PRC supplier and
Shanghai Fortune. See Surrogate Value
Memorandum at Attachment 4.
Currency Conversion
We made currency conversions into
U.S. dollars, in accordance with section
773A(a) of the Act, based on the
exchange rates in effect on the dates of
the U.S. sales, as certified by the Federal
Reserve Bank.

We will disclose the calculations used
in our preliminary analysis to parties to
this proceeding within five days of the
publication date of this notice. See 19
CFR 351.224(b). Interested parties are
invited to comment on the preliminary
results and may submit case briefs and/
or written comments within 30 days of
the date of publication of this notice.
See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(ii). Any
interested party may request a hearing
within 30 days of publication of this
notice. See 19 CFR 351.310(c). Any
hearing, if requested, will be held 42
days after the date of publication of this
notice. See 19 CFR 351.310(d). Rebuttal
briefs and rebuttals to written
comments, limited to issues raised in
such briefs or comments, may be filed
no later than 35 days after the date of
publication. See 19 CFR 351.309(d). The
Department requests that parties
submitting written comments also
provide the Department with an
additional copy of those comments on
diskette or CD. The Department will
issue the final results of this
administrative review, which will
include the results of its analysis of
issues raised in any such comments,
within 120 days of publication of these
preliminary results, pursuant to section

Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department will determine, and CBP

appropriate entries. The Department
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:51 Apr 20, 2010
Jkt 220001
intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review. In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
we calculated an exporter/importer–or
customer–specific assessment rate or
value for merchandise subject to this
review. For these preliminary results,
we divided the total dumping margins
for the reviewed sales by the total
entered quantity of those reviewed sales
for each applicable importer. In this
review, if these preliminary results are
adopted in our final results of review,
we will direct CBP to assess the
resulting rate against the entered
customs value or per–unit assessment,
as appropriate, for the subject
merchandise on each importers’/
customers’ entries during the POR.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for all shipments
of the subject merchandise entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for Shanghai
Fortune, which has a separate rate, the
cash deposit rate will be the company–
specific rate established in the final
results of review (except, if the rate is
zero or de minimis, no cash deposit will
be required); (2) for previously
investigated or reviewed PRC and non–
PRC exporters not listed above that have
separate rates, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the exporter–specific rate
published for the most recent period; (3)
for all PRC exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found
to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be the PRC–wide rate
of 329.33 percent; and (4) for all non–
PRC exporters of subject merchandise
which have not received their own rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate
applicable to the PRC exporters that
supplied that non–PRC exporter. These
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a
preliminary 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 29, 2006, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) published a notice of
initiation of administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
small diameter seamless carbon and
alloy steel standard, line and pressure
pipe from Brazil, covering the period
August 1, 2005, through July 31, 2006.
See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 71 FR 57465 (September 29,
2006). The preliminary results for this
review are currently due no later than
May 3, 2007.
Statutory Time Limits
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue the
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested and the
final results of review within 120 days
after the date on which the preliminary
E:\FR\FM\04MYN1.SGM
04MYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 86 / Friday, May 4, 2007 / Notices
results are published. If it is not
practicable to complete the review
within the time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend these deadlines to
a maximum of 365 days and 180 days,
respectively.
Extension of Time Limits for
Preliminary Results
The deadline for the preliminary
results of this administrative review is
currently May 3, 2007. The Department
determines that completion of the
preliminary results within the statutory
time period is not practicable. The
Department issued a supplemental sales
and cost questionnaire to respondent
V&M do Brasil, S.A. (‘‘VMB’’) to gather
information with respect to how VMB
reported certain production costs and
calculated its interest expense ratio on
April 18, 2007, and the supplemental
questionnaire response is currently due
on May 2, 2007. The Department
requires additional time to review and
analyze VMB’s supplemental
questionnaire response, and to issue
additional supplemental cost
questionnaires, if necessary.
Therefore, given the additional time
needed to conduct complete analyses
for this administrative review, in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act, the Department is extending the
time limit for completion of these
preliminary results by an additional 60
days to no later than July 2, 2007. The
final results continue to be due no later
than 120 days after the publication of
the notice of the preliminary results.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: April 30, 2007.

shipper review of the antidumping duty
order on certain steel concrete
reinforcing bars (rebar) from Turkey for
the period April 1, 2005, through March
31, 2006. We have preliminarily
determined that certain of the
producers/exporters have made sales
below normal value (NV). If these
preliminary results are adopted in the
final results of these reviews, we will
instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries.
We also have preliminarily
determined to revoke the antidumping
duty order with respect to Colakoglu
Metalurji A.S. and Colakoglu Dis Ticaret
A.S. (collectively ‘‘Colakoglu’’) and Diler
Demir Celik Endustrisi ve Ticaret A.S.,
Yazici Demir Celik Sanayi ve Turizm
Ticaret A.S., and Diler Dis Ticaret A.S.
(collectively, ‘‘Diler’’).
Interested parties are invited to
comment on these preliminary results.
We will issue the final results no later
than 120 days from the date of
publication of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 3, 2006, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of ‘‘Opportunity To Request
Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order on rebar from
Turkey. See Antidumping or
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
To Request Administrative Review, 71
FR 16549 (Apr. 3, 2006).
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b)(2), on April 28, 2006, the
Department received requests to
conduct an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on rebar from
Turkey from the following producers/
exporters of rebar: Colakoglu; Diler;
Ekinciler Demir ve Celik Sanayi A.S.
and Ekinciler Dis Ticaret A.S.
(collectively ‘‘Ekinciler’’); Habas Sinai ve
Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal Endustrisi A.S.
(Habas); and Kaptan Demir Celik
Endustrisi ve Ticaret A.S. and Kaptan
Metal Dis Ticaret ve Nakliyat A.S.
(collectively ‘‘Kaptan’’). As part of their
requests, Colakoglu and Diler also
requested that the Department revoke

Frm 00012
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

the antidumping order with regard to
them, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.222(b). Also, on April 28, 2006, the
domestic interested parties, Nucor
Corporation, Gerdau AmeriSteel
Corporation and Commercial Metals
Company, requested an administrative
review for Colakoglu, Diler, Ekinciler,
and Habas pursuant to section 751(a) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act), and in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b)(1). Further, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.214(b), on April 28,
2006, the Department received a request
to conduct a new shipper review of the
antidumping duty order on rebar from
Turkey from Kroman Celik Sanayii A.S.
and Yucelboru Ihracat Ithalat ve
Pazarlama A.S. (collectively ‘‘Kroman’’).
In May 2006, the Department initiated
an administrative review for Colakoglu,
Diler, Ekinciler, Habas, and Kaptan and
a new shipper review for Kroman, and
we issued antidumping duty
questionnaires to these companies. See
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Request for Revocation in
Part, 71 FR 30864 (May 31, 2006), and
Notice of Initiation of New Shipper
Antidumping Duty Review: Certain Steel
Concrete Reinforcing Bars from Turkey,
71 FR 30383 (May 26, 2006). On May
22, 2006, Kroman agreed in writing to
waive the time limits in order for the
Department, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.214(j)(3), to conduct the new
shipper review concurrently with the
administrative review.
In July 2006, we received responses to
sections A through D of the
questionnaire from Colakoglu, Diler,
Ekinciler, and Habas, and to sections A
through C of the questionnaire from
Kaptan and Kroman.
Also in July 2006, the domestic
interested parties requested that the
Department initiate sales–below-cost
investigations of Kaptan and Kroman.
We initiated sales–below-cost
investigations for these companies in
August 2006. See the Memoranda to
James Maeder, Director, Office 2, AD/
CVD Operations, from The Team,
entitled, ‘‘Petitioners’ Allegation of Sales
Below the Cost of Production for Kaptan
Demir Celik Endustrisi Ve Ticaret A.S.
and Kaptan Metal Dis Ticaret Ve
Nakliyat A.S.’’ (‘‘Kaptan Cost Allegation
Memo’’) and ‘‘Petitioners’ Allegation of
Sales Below the Cost of Production for
Kroman Celik Sanayii A.S. and
Yucelboru Ihracat Ithalat ve Pazarlama
A.S.’’ (‘‘Kroman Cost Allegation Memo’’),
dated August 11, 2006.
In August 2006, we issued
supplemental sales questionnaires to
each of the six respondent companies.
