Extension of Time Limits for Final
Results
In our Preliminary Results, we
indicated we would issue the final
results of this changed circumstances
review within 120 days after the date on
which the preliminary results were
published. However, it is not practicable
to complete the review within this time
period. Accordingly, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.302(b), we are extending the time
limit by 60 days.
The Department finds that it is not
practicable to complete this review
within the original time frame. In order
to evaluate fairly the issues raised by
Petitioners (DuPont Teijin Films,
Mitsubishi Polyester Film, Inc., SKC
Inc., and Toray Plastics (America) Inc.)
and Kolon Industries, Inc., in their
respective case and rebuttal briefs, we
are extending the time frame for
completion of this review. These issues
include the appropriate model matching
procedures to employ in this changed
circumstances review, and whether the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Department should employ
investigation or administrative review
methodologies in calculating dumping
margins. Consequently, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.302(b), the Department
is extending the time period for issuing
the final results of review by 60 days.
Therefore, the final results will be due
no later than March 30, 2008. As March
30, 2008 falls on a Sunday, our final
results will be issued no later than
Monday March 31, 2008. This notice is
published in accordance with section
771(i) of the Tariff Act, as amended.

Background
On May 1, 2007, the Department of
Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
published in the Federal Register a
notice for an opportunity to request an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on pure
magnesium from the People’s Republic
of China (‘‘PRC’’). See Antidumping or
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity
to Request Administrative Review, 72
FR 23796 (May 1, 2007). As a result of
a request for a review and a one year
deferral filed by Tianjin Magnesium
International Co., Ltd. (‘‘TMI’’) on May
30, 2007, and a request for a review filed
by Shanxi Datuhe Coke & Chemicals
Co., Ltd. (‘‘Datuhe’’) on May 31, 2007,
the Department published in the
Federal Register a notice of initiation of
an administrative review (i.e., Datuhe)
PO 00000
Frm 00012

and deferral of initiation of
administration review with respect to
TMI for the period May 1, 2006, through
April 30, 2007. See Initiation of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, Request for
Revocation in Part and Deferral of
Administrative Review, 72 FR 35690
(June 29, 2007). Upon learning that the
domestic interested party did not
receive notice of TMI’s request for a
deferral, we extended the time period
for the domestic interested party to
object. The domestic interested party
did object. Consequently, pursuant to 19
CFR 351.213 (c), we determined not to
defer the review for TMI. See
memorandum to the file from Hua Lu,
Case Analyst, through Robert Bolling,
Granting Petitioner An Extension of
Time to File An Objection to
Respondent’s Deferral Request, dated
September 26, 2007. The preliminary
results of review are currently due no
later than January 31, 2008.
Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary
Results.
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘Act’’), requires
the Department to issue preliminary
results within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested and the
final results within 120 days after the
date on which the preliminary results
are published. However, if it is not
practicable to complete the review
within this time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend the 245-day time
period to a maximum of 365 days. We
determine that completion of the
preliminary results of this review within
the 245-day period is not practicable
because the Department requires
additional time to analyze information
pertaining to the respondents’ sales
practices, factors of production, and to
issue and review responses to
supplemental questionnaires.
Because it is not practicable to
complete this review within the time
specified under the Act, we are
extending the time period for issuing
the preliminary results of review by 90
days until April 30, 2008, in accordance
with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. The
final results continue to be due 120 days
after the publication of the preliminary
results.
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213(h)(2).

Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils
From Taiwan: Final Results and
Rescission in Part of Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On August 3, 2007, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on stainless
steel sheet and strip in coils (SSSSC)
from Taiwan (72 FR 43236). This review
covers three producers/exporters of the
subject merchandise to the United
States. The period of review (POR) is
July 1, 2005, through June 30, 2006. We
are rescinding the review with respect
to nine companies because these
companies had no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR.
Based on our analysis of the
comments received, we have made
certain changes in the margin
calculations. Therefore, the final results
differ from the preliminary results. The
final weighted-average dumping
margins for the reviewed firms are listed
below in the section entitled ‘‘Final
Results of Review.’’
EFFECTIVE DATE: February 6, 2008.

Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils from
Taiwan: Preliminary Results and
Rescission in Part of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 72 FR 43236
(Aug. 3, 2007) (Preliminary Results).
We invited parties to comment on our
preliminary results of review. In
September 2007, we received case and
rebuttal briefs from the petitioners 1 (i.e.,
Allegheny Ludlum Corporation, United
Auto Workers Local 3303 (formerly
Butler Armco Independent Union),
United Steelworkers of America, AFL–
CIO/CLC, and Zanesville Armco
Independent Organization) and Chia
Far, the sole respondent participating in
this review.
The Department has conducted this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
certain stainless steel sheet and strip in
coils. Stainless steel is an alloy steel
containing, by weight, 1.2 percent or
less of carbon and 10.5 percent or more
of chromium, with or without other
elements. The subject sheet and strip is
a flat-rolled product in coils that is
greater than 9.5 mm in width and less
than 4.75 mm in thickness, and that is
annealed or otherwise heat treated and
pickled or otherwise descaled. The
subject sheet and strip may also be
further processed (e.g., cold-rolled,
polished, aluminized, coated, etc.)
provided that it maintains the specific
dimensions of sheet and strip following
such processing.
The merchandise subject to the order
is classified in the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
at subheadings: 7219.13.00.31,
7219.13.00.51, 7219.13.00.71,

1 We note that, on October 16, 2007, we rejected
the petitioners’ case and rebuttal briefs because of
the improper bracketing (i.e., claims for treatment
as business proprietary information) of public
information. See the September 26, 2007,
memorandum from Elizabeth Eastwood to the file
entitled, ‘‘Conversation with Counsel for Chia Far
industrial Factory Co., Ltd., Regarding the
Bracketing of Information Contained in the
Petitioners’ September 10, 2007, and September 17,
2007, Submissions in the Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review on Stainless Steel Sheet and
Strip in Coils from Taiwan.’’ The petitioners
resubmitted properly-bracketed versions of both
their case and rebuttal briefs on October 18, 2007.
