ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: SUMMARY: On June 14, 2002, the Bureau of Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’) published a notice in the Federal Register that set forth a list of persons in foreign countries who were parties to past export transactions where prelicense checks or post-shipment verifications could not be conducted for reasons outside the control of the U.S. Government (‘‘Unverified List’’). Additionally, on July 16, 2004, BIS published a notice in the Federal Register that advised exporters that the Unverified List would also include persons in foreign countries who are parties to transactions where BIS is not able to verify the existence or E:\FR\FM\05JYN1.SGM 05JYN1 36656 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 128 / Thursday, July 5, 2007 / Notices authenticity of the end-user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or other party to the transaction and persons affiliated with a person on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, control, position of responsibility, or other affiliation or connection in the conduct of trade or business. These notices advised exporters that the involvement of a listed person as a party to a proposed transaction constitutes a ‘‘red flag’’ as described in the guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732, requiring heightened scrutiny by the exporter before proceeding with such a transaction. This notice adds three entities to the Unverified List. The entities are: Al Minzal Medical Equipment & Instruments, P.O. Box 31107, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates; JSC Chop Vityaz-S, 146 Unikh Pionerov Ave, Samara, Russia; Sistem Dizayners Co., APA: 2 NO.: 60, Merdanov Gardashlari St., Baku, Azerbaijan. DATES: This notice is effective July 5, 2007. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deniz Muslu, Office of Enforcement Analysis, Bureau of Industry and Security, Telephone: (202) 482–4255. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In administering export controls under the Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR parts 730 to 774) (‘‘EAR’’), BIS carries out a number of preventive enforcement activities with respect to individual export transactions. Such activities are intended to assess diversion risks, identify potential violations, verify end-uses, and determine the suitability of end-users to receive U.S. commodities, software or technology. In carrying out these activities, BIS officials, or officials of other federal agencies acting on BIS’s behalf, selectively conduct pre-license checks (‘‘PLCs’’) to verify the bona fides of the transaction and the suitability of the end-user or ultimate consignee. In addition, such officials sometimes carry out post-shipment verifications (‘‘PSVs’’) to ensure that U.S. exports have actually been delivered to the authorized end-user, are being used in a manner consistent with the terms of a license or license exception, and otherwise consistent with the EAR. In certain instances BIS officials, or other federal officials acting on BIS’s behalf, have been unable to perform a PLC or PSV with respect to certain export control transactions for reasons outside the control of the U.S. Government (including a lack of cooperation by the host government authority, the end-user, or the ultimate consignee). BIS listed a number of foreign end-users and consignees involved in such transactions in the Unverified List that was included in BIS’s Federal Register notice of June 14, 2002. 67 FR 40910. On July 16, 2004, BIS published a notice in the Federal Register that advised exporters that the Unverified List would also include persons in foreign countries where BIS is not able to verify the existence or authenticity of the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or other party to an export transaction and persons affiliated with a person on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, control, position of responsibility, or other affiliation or connection in the conduct of trade or business. 69 FR 42652. The June 14, 2002 and July 16, 2004 notices advised exporters that the involvement of a listed person in a transaction constituted a ‘‘red flag’’ under the ‘‘Know Your Customer’’ guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732 of the EAR. Under that guidance, whenever there is a ‘‘red flag,’’ exporters have an affirmative duty to inquire, verify, or otherwise substantiate the proposed transaction to satisfy themselves that the transaction does not involve a proliferation activity prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does not violate other provisions of the EAR. The Federal Register notices further stated that BIS may periodically add persons to the Unverified List based on the criteria set forth above, and remove persons when warranted. This notice advises exporters that BIS is adding Al Minzal Medical Equipment & Instruments in the United Arab Emirates, JSC Chop Vityaz-S in Russia, and Sistem Dizayners Co. in Azerbaijan to the Unverified List. BIS has determined that it is appropriate to add these entities to the Unverified List because BIS was unable to conduct a PLC, a PSV, and/or was unable to verify the existence or authenticity of an end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or other party to an export transaction. A ‘‘red flag’’ now exists for transactions involving these entities due to their inclusion on the Unverified List. As a result, exporters have an affirmative duty to inquire, verify, or otherwise substantiate the proposed transaction to satisfy themselves that the transaction does not involve a proliferation activity prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does not violate other provisions of the EAR. The Unverified List, as modified by this notice, is set forth below. Dated: June 28, 2007. Darryl W. Jackson, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Enforcement. Unverified List (As of July 5, 2007) The Unverified List includes names, countries, and last known addresses of foreign persons involved in export transactions with respect to which: The Bureau of Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’) could not conduct a pre license check (‘‘PLC’’) or a post shipment verification (‘‘PSV’’) for reasons outside of the U.S. Government’s control; BIS was not able to verify the existence or authenticity of the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee or other party to an export transaction; and/or the person is affiliated with a person on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, control, position of responsibility, or other affiliation or connection in the conduct of trade or business. Any transaction to which a listed person is a party will be deemed to raise a ‘‘red flag’’ with respect to such transaction within the meaning of the guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732. The red flag applies to the person on the Unverified List regardless of where the person is located in the country included on the list.

SUMMARY: In response to a request from a domestic producer, Nucor Corporation, and a Romanian producer/ exporter, Mittal Steel Galati, S.A. (‘‘MS Galati’’), the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain cut– to-length carbon steel plate (‘‘CTL plate’’) from Romania. The period of review is August 1, 2005, through December 15, 2005. With regard to the two Romanian companies that are subject to this administrative review, producer MS Galati and exporter Metalexportimport S.A. (‘‘MEI’’), we preliminarily determine that sales of subject merchandise produced by MS Galati have been made at less than normal value (‘‘NV’’). Since MEI was not involved with any of the U.S. sales during the period of review, we are assigning a preliminary dumping margin to MS Galati only and intend to rescind the review with respect to MEI. For a full discussion of the intent to rescind with respect to MEI, see the ‘‘Notice of Intent to Rescind in Part’’ section of this notice below. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary results. Parties that submit comments are requested to submit with each argument (1) a statement of the issue(s), (2) a brief summary of the argument(s), and (3) a table of authorities.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES AGENCY: Background On August 1, 2006, the Department published a notice of opportunity to VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:43 Jul 03, 2007 Jkt 211001 request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on CTL plate from Romania for the period August 1, 2005, through July 31, 2006. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review, 71 FR 43441 (August 1, 2006). On August 30, 2006, the Department received a timely request from Nucor Corporation, a domestic producer, requesting that the Department conduct an administrative review of shipments of CTL plate from Romania produced by MS Galati and exported to the United States by MS Galati or MEI. In addition, on August 31, 2006, the Department received a timely request from MS Galati, requesting that the Department conduct an administrative review of subject merchandise produced/exported by MS Galati. On September 29, 2006, the Department initiated an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on CTL plate from Romania, for the period covering August 1, 2005, through July 31, 2006, to determine whether merchandise imported into the United States from MS Galati and MEI is being sold at less than NV. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 71 FR 57465 (September 29, 2006). On October 12, 2006, the Department issued an antidumping duty questionnaire to MS Galati. On November 17, 2006, the Department received the section A questionnaire response from MS Galati. On December 11, 2006, MS Galati filed its section B and C questionnaire responses. On February 14, 2007, the Department issued a supplemental questionnaire regarding MS Galati’s sections A through C questionnaire responses. On March 8, 2007, MS Galati submitted its response to the supplemental questionnaire. On April 2, 2007, the Department issued a second supplemental questionnaire with regard to section C, and received MS Galati’s response on April 16, 2007. On June 12, 2007, the Department received MS Galati’s quantity and value reconciliation, as required under section A of the Department’s antidumping questionnaire. Because there was no sales–below-cost allegation and the Department did not initiate a review of MS Galati’s costs, MS Galati was not required to file a section D questionnaire response. On December 14, 2006, the International Trade Commission determined that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on CTL plate from certain countries, including PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Romania, would not likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time. See Certain Carbon Steel Products From Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom, 72 FR 4529 (January 31, 2007) and USITC Publication 3899 entitled Certain Carbon Steel Products from Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom: Investigation Nos.

Thus, the Department revoked the antidumping duty order on CTL plate from Romania, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 751(d) of the Act. See Revocation Pursuant to Second Five–Year (Sunset) Reviews: Countervailing Duty Orders on Certain Steel Products from Belgium, Brazil, Mexico, Spain and Sweden; Antidumping Duty Orders on Certain Cut–to-Length Carbon Steel Plate from Belgium, Brazil, Finland, Germany, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom; Antidumping Finding on Carbon Steel Plate from Taiwan, 72 FR 6519 (February 12, 2007) (‘‘Revocation of Plate from Romania’’). The Department stated in the Revocation of Plate from Romania that it will complete any pending administrative reviews of the order and will conduct administrative reviews of subject merchandise entered prior to the effective date of revocation in response to appropriately filed requests for review. Pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the effective date of revocation is December 15, 2005. As a result, the Department is completing the instant review of CTL plate from Romania for the period of review covering August 1, 2005, to December 15, 2005. Period of Review The period of review (‘‘POR’’) is August 1, 2005, through December 15, 2005. Notice of Intent To Rescind Review in Part Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the Department may rescind an administrative review, in whole or only with respect to a particular exporter or producer, if the Secretary concludes that, during the period covered by the E:\FR\FM\05JYN1.SGM 05JYN1

Revision to the Unverified List--Guidance as to ``Red Flags''

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 14, 2002, the Bureau of Industry and Security 
(``BIS'') published a notice in the Federal Register that set forth a 
list of persons in foreign countries who were parties to past export 
transactions where pre-license checks or post-shipment verifications 
could not be conducted for reasons outside the control of the U.S. 
Government (``Unverified List''). Additionally, on July 16, 2004, BIS 
published a notice in the Federal Register that advised exporters that 
the Unverified List would also include persons in foreign countries who 
are parties to transactions where BIS is not able to verify the 
existence or

[[Page 36656]]

authenticity of the end-user, intermediate consignee, ultimate 
consignee, or other party to the transaction and persons affiliated 
with a person on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, control, 
position of responsibility, or other affiliation or connection in the 
conduct of trade or business. These notices advised exporters that the 
involvement of a listed person as a party to a proposed transaction 
constitutes a ``red flag'' as described in the guidance set forth in 
Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732, requiring heightened scrutiny by 
the exporter before proceeding with such a transaction. This notice 
adds three entities to the Unverified List. The entities are: Al Minzal 
Medical Equipment & Instruments, P.O. Box 31107, Sharjah, United Arab 
Emirates; JSC Chop Vityaz-S, 146 Unikh Pionerov Ave, Samara, Russia; 
Sistem Dizayners Co., APA: 2 NO.: 60, Merdanov Gardashlari St., Baku, 
Azerbaijan.

DATES: This notice is effective July 5, 2007.

Analysis, Bureau of Industry and Security, Telephone: (202) 482-4255.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In administering export controls under the 
Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR parts 730 to 774) (``EAR''), 
BIS carries out a number of preventive enforcement activities with 
respect to individual export transactions. Such activities are intended 
to assess diversion risks, identify potential violations, verify end-
uses, and determine the suitability of end-users to receive U.S. 
commodities, software or technology. In carrying out these activities, 
BIS officials, or officials of other federal agencies acting on BIS's 
behalf, selectively conduct pre-license checks (``PLCs'') to verify the 
bona fides of the transaction and the suitability of the end-user or 
ultimate consignee. In addition, such officials sometimes carry out 
post-shipment verifications (``PSVs'') to ensure that U.S. exports have 
actually been delivered to the authorized end-user, are being used in a 
manner consistent with the terms of a license or license exception, and 
otherwise consistent with the EAR.
    In certain instances BIS officials, or other federal officials 
acting on BIS's behalf, have been unable to perform a PLC or PSV with 
respect to certain export control transactions for reasons outside the 
control of the U.S. Government (including a lack of cooperation by the 
host government authority, the end-user, or the ultimate consignee). 
BIS listed a number of foreign end-users and consignees involved in 
such transactions in the Unverified List that was included in BIS's 
Federal Register notice of June 14, 2002. 67 FR 40910. On July 16, 
2004, BIS published a notice in the Federal Register that advised 
exporters that the Unverified List would also include persons in 
foreign countries where BIS is not able to verify the existence or 
authenticity of the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate 
consignee, or other party to an export transaction and persons 
affiliated with a person on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, 
control, position of responsibility, or other affiliation or connection 
in the conduct of trade or business. 69 FR 42652.
    The June 14, 2002 and July 16, 2004 notices advised exporters that 
the involvement of a listed person in a transaction constituted a ``red 
flag'' under the ``Know Your Customer'' guidance set forth in 
Supplement No. 3 to 15 CFR part 732 of the EAR. Under that guidance, 
whenever there is a ``red flag,'' exporters have an affirmative duty to 
inquire, verify, or otherwise substantiate the proposed transaction to 
satisfy themselves that the transaction does not involve a 
proliferation activity prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does not 
violate other provisions of the EAR. The Federal Register notices 
further stated that BIS may periodically add persons to the Unverified 
List based on the criteria set forth above, and remove persons when 
warranted.
    This notice advises exporters that BIS is adding Al Minzal Medical 
Equipment & Instruments in the United Arab Emirates, JSC Chop Vityaz-S 
in Russia, and Sistem Dizayners Co. in Azerbaijan to the Unverified 
List. BIS has determined that it is appropriate to add these entities 
to the Unverified List because BIS was unable to conduct a PLC, a PSV, 
and/or was unable to verify the existence or authenticity of an end 
user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or other party to an 
export transaction. A ``red flag'' now exists for transactions 
involving these entities due to their inclusion on the Unverified List. 
As a result, exporters have an affirmative duty to inquire, verify, or 
otherwise substantiate the proposed transaction to satisfy themselves 
that the transaction does not involve a proliferation activity 
prohibited in 15 CFR part 744, and does not violate other provisions of 
the EAR.
    The Unverified List, as modified by this notice, is set forth 
below.

    Dated: June 28, 2007.
Darryl W. Jackson,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Enforcement.

Unverified List (As of July 5, 2007)

    The Unverified List includes names, countries, and last known 
addresses of foreign persons involved in export transactions with 
respect to which: The Bureau of Industry and Security (``BIS'') could 
not conduct a pre license check (``PLC'') or a post shipment 
verification (``PSV'') for reasons outside of the U.S. Government's 
control; BIS was not able to verify the existence or authenticity of 
the end user, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee or other party 
to an export transaction; and/or the person is affiliated with a person 
on the Unverified List by virtue of ownership, control, position of 
responsibility, or other affiliation or connection in the conduct of 
trade or business. Any transaction to which a listed person is a party 
will be deemed to raise a ``red flag'' with respect to such transaction 
within the meaning of the guidance set forth in Supplement No. 3 to 15 
CFR part 732. The red flag applies to the person on the Unverified List 
regardless of where the person is located in the country included on 
the list.
