be when the Draft EIS is published. The
comment period on the draft
environmental impact statement will be
45 days from the date the
Environmental Protection Agency
publishes the notice of availability in
the Federal Register. The Draft EIS is
anticipated to be available for public
review in June 2008. The comment
period on the Draft EIS will be 45 days
from the date the Environmental
Protection Agency publishes the notice
of availability in the Federal Register.
The Forest Service believes, at this
early stage, it is important to give
reviewers notice of several court rulings
related to public participation in the
environmental review process. First,
reviewers of draft environmental impact
statements must structure their
participation in the environmental
review of the proposal so that is it
meaningful and alerts an agency to the
reviewer’s position and contentions
(Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp.
v. NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978)).
Also, environmental objections that
could be raised at the draft
environmental impact statement stage
but that are not raised until after
completion of the final environmental
impact statement may be waived or
dismissed by the courts (City of Angoon
v. Ho del, 803 F.2d 1016, 1022 (9th Cir.
1986) and Wisconsin Heritages, Inc. v.
Harris, 490 F. Supp. 1334, 1338 (E.D.
Wis. 1980)). Because of these court
rulings, it is very important that those
interested in this proposed action
participate by the close of the comment
period for the Draft EIS so that
substantive comments and objections
are made available to the Forest Service
at a time when it can meaningfully
consider them and respond to them in
a final environmental impact statement.
To assist the Forest Service in
identifying and considering issues and
concerns on the proposed action,
comments on the draft environmental
impact statement should be as specific
as possible. It is also helpful if
comments refer to specific pages or
chapters of the draft statement.
Comments may also address the
adequacy of the draft environmental
impact statement or the merits of the
alternatives formulated and discussed in
the statement. Reviewers may wish to
refer to the Council on Environmental
Quality Regulations for implementing
the procedural provisions of the
National Environmental Policy Act at 40
CFR 1503.3 in addressing these points.
After the comment period for the
Draft EIS ends, the Forest Service will
analyze comments received and address
them in the Final EIS. The Final EIS is
scheduled to be released by January

Supervisor Thomas K. Reilly) will
document the decision and rationale in
a Record of Decision (ROD). The
decision will be subject to review under
Forest Service appeal regulations at 36
CFR Part 215.
Preliminary Issues identified by the

Scope of the Order
The products covered by this order
are brake rotors made of gray cast iron,
whether finished, semifinished, or
unfinished, ranging in diameter from 8
to 16 inches (20.32 to 40.64 centimeters)
and in weight from 8 to 45 pounds (3.63
to 20.41 kilograms). The size parameters
(weight and dimension) of the brake
rotors limit their use to the following
types of motor vehicles: automobiles,
all–terrain vehicles, vans and
recreational vehicles under ‘‘one ton
and a half,’’ and light trucks designated
as ‘‘one ton and a half.’’
Finished brake rotors are those that
are ready for sale and installation
without any further operations. Semi–
finished rotors are those on which the
surface is not entirely smooth, and have
undergone some drilling. Unfinished
rotors are those which have undergone
some grinding or turning.
These brake rotors are for motor
vehicles, and do not contain in the
casting a logo of an original equipment
manufacturer (‘‘OEM’’) which produces
vehicles sold in the United States. (e.g.,
General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Honda,
Toyota, Volvo). Brake rotors covered in
this order are not certified by OEM
producers of vehicles sold in the United
States. The scope also includes
composite brake rotors that are made of
gray cast iron, which contain a steel
plate, but otherwise meet the above
criteria. Excluded from the scope of this
order are brake rotors made of gray cast
iron, whether finished, semifinished, or
unfinished, with a diameter less than 8
inches or greater than 16 inches (less
than 20.32 centimeters or greater than
40.64 centimeters) and a weight less
than 8 pounds or greater than 45 pounds
(less than 3.63 kilograms or greater than
20.41 kilograms).1
1 On January 17, 2007, the Department
determined the brake rotors produced by FederalMogul and certified by the Ford Motor Company to
be excluded from the scope of the order. See

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 13, 2007, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
determination of sales at less than fair
value (LTFV) in the antidumping
investigation of glycine from Japan. See
Notice of Preliminary Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Glycine
from Japan, 72 FR 52349 (September 13,
2007) (Preliminary Determination). We
invited parties to comment on
Preliminary Determination. We did not
receive any case or rebuttal briefs from
any interested parties. On October 25,
2007, the petitioner in this
investigation, Geo Specialty Chemicals,
Inc., submitted an allegation of critical
circumstances with respect to imports of
glycine from Japan.
Period of Investigation
The period of investigation is January
1, 2006, through December 31, 2006.
Scope of Investigation
The merchandise covered by this
investigation is glycine, which in its
solid (i.e., crystallized) form is a free–
flowing crystalline material. Glycine is
used as a sweetener/taste enhancer,
buffering agent, reabsorbable amino
acid, chemical intermediate, metal
complexing agent, dietary supplement,
and is used in certain pharmaceuticals.
The scope of this investigation covers
glycine in any form and purity level.
Although glycine blended with other
materials is not covered by the scope of
this investigation, glycine to which
relatively small quantities of other
materials have been added is covered by
the scope. Glycine’s chemical
composition is C2H5NO2 and is
normally classified under subheading

SUMMARY: On September 25, 2007, the Department of Commerce (the
``Department'') published the preliminary results of the semiannual new
shipper review of the antidumping duty order on brake rotors from the
People's Republic of China. See Brake Rotors From the People's Republic
of China: Preliminary Results of the 2006 Semiannual New Shipper
Review, 72 FR 54430 (September 25, 2007) (``Preliminary Results''). The
merchandise covered by this review is brake rotors, exported and
manufactured by Longkou Qizheng Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (``Qizheng''), as
described in the ``Scope of the Order'' section of this notice. The
period of review is April 1, 2006, through October 31, 2006. We invited
parties to comment on our Preliminary Results. We received no comments,
and no new evidence was placed on the record to cause us to question
that determination. Therefore, the final results are unchanged from
those presented in the Preliminary Results. The final weighted-average
dumping margin for Qizheng is listed below in the section entitled
``Final Results of the Review.''
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 28, 2007.

5047 or (202) 482-4207, respectively.
Scope of the Order
The products covered by this order are brake rotors made of gray
cast iron, whether finished, semifinished, or unfinished, ranging in
diameter from 8 to 16 inches (20.32 to 40.64 centimeters) and in weight
from 8 to 45 pounds (3.63 to 20.41 kilograms). The size parameters
(weight and dimension) of the brake rotors limit their use to the
following types of motor vehicles: automobiles, all-terrain vehicles,
vans and recreational vehicles under ``one ton and a half,'' and light
trucks designated as ``one ton and a half.''
Finished brake rotors are those that are ready for sale and
installation without any further operations. Semi-finished rotors are
those on which the surface is not entirely smooth, and have undergone
some drilling. Unfinished rotors are those which have undergone some
grinding or turning.
These brake rotors are for motor vehicles, and do not contain in
the casting a logo of an original equipment manufacturer (``OEM'')
which produces vehicles sold in the United States. (e.g., General
Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Toyota, Volvo). Brake rotors covered in
this order are not certified by OEM producers of vehicles sold in the
United States. The scope also includes composite brake rotors that are
made of gray cast iron, which contain a steel plate, but otherwise meet
the above criteria. Excluded from the scope of this order are brake
rotors made of gray cast iron, whether finished, semifinished, or
unfinished, with a diameter less than 8 inches or greater than 16
inches (less than 20.32 centimeters or greater than 40.64 centimeters)
and a weight less than 8 pounds or greater than 45 pounds (less than
3.63 kilograms or greater than 20.41 kilograms).\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ On January 17, 2007, the Department determined the brake
rotors produced by Federal-Mogul and certified by the Ford Motor
Company to be excluded from the scope of the order. See Memorandum
from Blanche Ziv, Program Manager, AD/CVD Operations, Office 8,
through Wendy J. Frankel, Office Director, AD/CVD Operations, Office
8, to Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, entitled, ``Scope Ruling of the Antidumping Duty
Order on Brake Rotors from the People's Republic of China; Federal-
Mogul Corporation,'' dated January 17, 2007.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 67271]]
Brake rotors were classifiable under subheading 8708.39.50.30 of
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') during
the period of review.\2\ Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope
of this order is dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ As of January 1, 2005, the HTSUS classification for brake
rotors (discs) changed from 8708.39.50.10 to 8708.39.50.30. As of
January 1, 2007, the HTSUS classification for brake rotors (discs)
changed from 8708.39.50.30 to 8708.30.50.30. See HTSUS (2007),
available at <www.usitc.gov>.

Liquidation
The Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. The Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these
final results of review. We will direct CBP to assess the appropriate
assessment rate (0 percent) against the entered customs values for the
subject merchandise on each of Qizheng's entries under the relevant
order during the POR.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this new shipper review for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after date of publication, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the
Act''): (1) for subject merchandise exported and produced by Qizheng,
the cash deposit rate will be zero percent; (2) for subject merchandise
exported but not produced by Qizheng, the cash deposit rate will be the
PRC-wide rate; (3) the cash deposit rate for PRC exporters who received
a separate rate in a prior segment of the proceeding will continue to
be the rate assigned in that segment of the proceeding; (4) for all
other PRC exporters of subject merchandise which have not been found to
be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the PRC-
wide rate of 43.32 percent; and (5) for all non-PRC exporters of
subject merchandise, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable
to the PRC supplier of that exporter. These deposit requirements shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entry during this review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (``APO'') of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is
subject to sanction.
This new shipper review and this notice are published in accordance
with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
