Wooden Bedroom Furniture From The
People’s Republic of China: Notice of
Partial Rescission of New Shipper
Review
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On May 29, 2007, Golden
Well International (HK) Ltd. (‘‘Golden
Well’’) submitted a letter to the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) stating that its sale had
been cancelled and withdrawing its
request for the new shipper review.
Accordingly, we are rescinding the new
shipper review with respect to Golden
Well.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
rfrederick on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES
Background
On January 24, 2007, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
received a timely request for a new
shipper review of the antidumping
order on wooden bedroom furniture
(‘‘WBF’’) from the People’s Republic of
China (‘‘PRC’’) from Golden Well. On
March 7, 2007, the Department initiated
a new shipper review of shipments of
WBF from the PRC exported by Golden
Well during the POR. See Wooden
Bedroom Furniture from the People’s
Republic of China: Initiation of New
Shipper Reviews, 72 FR 10158 (March 7,
2007). On May 29, 2007, Golden Well
withdrew its request for a new shipper
review.
Rescission of New Shipper Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(f)(1), the
Department may rescind a new shipper
review if the party that requested the
review withdraws its request for review
within 60 days of the date of publication
of the notice of initiation of the
requested review. Although Golden
Well withdrew its request after the 60day deadline, we find it reasonable to
allow it to withdraw its request because
we have not yet committed significant
resources to this proceeding. Further, no
party has opposed Golden Well’s
request to withdraw. Therefore, we are
rescinding the 2006 new shipper review
of the antidumping duty order on
wooden bedroom furniture from the

See Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from
the People’s Republic of China; Notice
of Rescission of Antidumping Duty New
Shipper Review, 72 FR 43591 (August 6,
2007).
Notification
We will issue assessment instructions
after 15 days of the date of the
publication of this notice and, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c), we
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to assess antidumping duties
at the cash deposit rate in effect at the
time of entry for all shipments of WBF
from the PRC produced and exported by
Golden Well and entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption
during the period January 1, 2006,
through December 31, 2006.
This notice serves as a final 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 assumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and subsequent assessment of
double antidumping duties.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19
CFR 351.213(d)(4) of the Department’s
regulations.
Dated: August 27, 2007.

BACKGROUND:
Title V of the Trade and Development
Act of 2000 (the Act) created two tariff
rate quotas (TRQs), providing for
temporary reductions in the import
duties on limited quantities of two
categories of worsted wool fabrics
suitable for use in making suits, suittype jackets, or trousers: (1) For worsted
wool fabric with average fiber diameters
greater than 18.5 microns (Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS) heading 9902.51.11); and (2) for
worsted wool fabric with average fiber
diameters of 18.5 microns or less (HTS
heading 9902.51.12). On August 6, 2002,
President Bush signed into law the
Trade Act of 2002, which includes
several amendments to Title V of the
Act. On December 3, 2004, the Act was
further amended pursuant to the
Miscellaneous Trade Act of 2004, Public
Law 108-429. The 2004 amendment
included authority for the Department
to allocate a TRQ for new HTS category,
HTS 9902.51.16. This HTS category
refers to worsted wool fabric with
average fiber diameter of 18.5 microns
or less. The amendment provided that
HTS 9902.51.16 is for the benefit of
persons (including firms, corporations,
or other legal entities) who weave such
worsted wool fabric in the United States
that is suitable for making men’s and
boys’ suits. The TRQ for HTS
9902.51.16 provided for temporary
reductions in the import duties on
2,000,000 square meters annually for
2005 and 2006. The amendment
requires that the TRQ be allocated to
persons who weave worsted wool fabric
with average fiber diameter of 18.5
microns or less, which is suitable for
use in making men’s and boys’ suits, in
the United States. On August 17, 2006,
the Act was further amended pursuant
to the Pension Protection Act of 2006,
Public Law 109-280, which extended
the TRQ for HTS 9902.51.16 through
2009.
On October 24, 2005, the Department
adopted final regulations establishing
procedures for allocating the TRQ. See
70 FR 61363; 19 CFR 335. In order to
be eligible for an allocation, an
applicant must submit an application on
the form provided at https://
web.ita.doc.gov/tacgi/wooltrq.nsf/
TRQApp/fabric to the address listed
above by 5 p.m. on October 5, 2007 in
compliance with the requirements of 15
CFR 335. Any business confidential
information that is marked business
confidential will be kept confidential
and protected from disclosure to the full
extent permitted by law.
