SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Postponement of Preliminary
Determination
On October 11, 2007, the Department
of Commerce (the Department) initiated
the antidumping duty investigation of
raw flexible magnets from Taiwan. See
Notice of Initiation of Antidumping
Duty Investigations: Raw Flexible
Magnets from the People’s Republic of
China and Taiwan, 72 FR 59071
(October 18, 2007). The notice of
initiation stated that the Department
would issue its preliminary
determinations for this investigation no
later than 140 days after the date of
issuance of the initiation (e.g., February
28, 2008), in accordance with section
733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).
On January 16, 2008, the petitioner,
Magnum Magnetics Corporation, made a
timely request pursuant to 19 CFR
351.205(e) for a postponement of the
preliminary determination with respect
to Taiwan. The petitioner requested
postponement of the preliminary
determination in order to allow the
Department additional time to address
several complex issues such as the
appropriate model-matching
characteristics.
For the reason identified by the
petitioner and because there are no
compelling reasons to deny the request,
the Department is postponing the
deadline for the preliminary
determination with respect to Taiwan
under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act by
50 days to April 18, 2008. The deadline
for the final determination will continue

SUMMARY: On February 1, 2007, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated sunset reviews of
the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’) orders on
stainless steel bar (‘‘SSB’’) from France,
Germany, Italy, South Korea, and the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Orders
The merchandise subject to these AD
and CVD orders is ‘‘stainless steel bar,’’
which includes articles of stainless steel
in straight lengths that have been either
hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn,
cold-rolled or otherwise cold-finished,
or ground, having a uniform solid cross
section along their whole length in the
shape of circles, segments of circles,
ovals, rectangles (including squares),
triangles, hexagons, octagons, or other
convex polygons. Stainless steel bar
includes cold-finished stainless steel
bars that are turned or ground in straight
lengths, whether produced from hotrolled bar or from straightened and cut
rod or wire, and reinforcing bars that
have indentations, ribs, grooves, or
other deformations produced during the
rolling process.
Except as specified above, the term
does not include stainless steel semifinished products, cut length flat-rolled
products (i.e., cut length rolled products
which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness
have a width measuring at least 10 times
the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in
thickness having a width which exceeds
150 mm and measures at least twice the
thickness), products that have been cut
from stainless steel sheet, strip or plate,
wire (i.e., cold-formed products in coils,
of any uniform solid cross section along
their whole length, which do not
conform to the definition of flat-rolled
products), and angles, shapes and
sections.
The stainless steel bar subject to this
review is currently classifiable under
subheadings 7222.11.00.05,
7222.11.00.50, 7222.19.00.05,
7222.19.00.50, 7222.20.00.05,
7222.20.00.45, 7222.20.00.75, and
7222.30.00.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for

convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of the
orders is dispositive.
Background
On March 7, 2002, the Department
issued the AD orders on SSB from
France, Germany, Italy, South Korea,
and the United Kingdom. See
Antidumping Duty Order: Stainless
Steel Bar From France, 67 FR 10385
(March 7, 2002); Notice of Amended

Korea, 67 FR 10381 (March 7, 2002);
Antidumping Duty Order: Stainless
Steel Bar From the United Kingdom, 67
FR 10381 (March 7, 2002). On March 8,
2002, the Department issued the CVD
order on SSB from Italy. See
Countervailing Duty Order: Stainless
Steel Bar From Italy, 67 FR 10670
(March 8, 2002).
On February 1, 2007, the Department
initiated, and the ITC instituted, sunset
reviews of the AD orders on SSB from
France, Germany, Italy, South Korea,
and the United Kingdom, and the CVD
order on SSB from Italy. See Initiation
of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 72 FR
4689 (February 1, 2007).
As a result of its sunset reviews of
these orders, the Department found that
revocation of the AD orders would be
likely to lead to the continuation or
recurrence of dumping and that
revocation of the CVD order would be
likely to lead to continuation or
recurrence of a countervailable subsidy.
See Stainless Steel Bar from France,
Italy, South Korea and the United
Kingdom; Final Results of the Expedited
Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping
Duty Orders, 72 FR 30772 (June 4,
2007); Stainless Steel Bar from

Steel Bar From Italy: Final Results of
Expedited Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review
of the Countervailing Duty Order, 72 FR

notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
margins likely to prevail were the AD
orders to be revoked and the level of
subsidy likely to prevail were the CVD
order to be revoked.
On January 31, 2008, the ITC
determined, pursuant to section 751(c)
of the Act, that revocation of these
orders would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United

States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. See ITC Final and USITC
Publication 3981 (January 2008),
entitled Stainless Steel Bar from France,
Germany, Italy, Korea, and the United
Kingdom (Inv. Nos. 701–TA–413 and
731–TA–913–916 & 918 (Review)).
Determination
As a result of the determination by the
ITC that revocation of these orders is not
likely to lead to the continuation or
recurrence of material injury to an
industry in the United States, the
Department, pursuant to section 751(d)
of the Act, is revoking the AD orders on
SSB from France, Germany, Italy, South
Korea, and the United Kingdom, and the
CVD order on SSB from Italy. Pursuant
to section 751(d) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.222(i)(2)(i), the effective date of
revocation is March 7, 2007 (AD Orders)
and March 8, 2007 (CVD Order). The
Department will notify U.S. Customs
and Border Protection to terminate
suspension of liquidation and collection
of cash deposits on entries of the subject
merchandise entered or withdrawn from
warehouse on or after March 7, 2007
(AD Orders) and March 8, 2007 (CVD
Order). Entries of subject merchandise
prior to the effective date of revocation
will continue to be subject to
suspension of liquidation and
antidumping and countervailing duty
deposit requirements. The Department
will complete any pending
administrative reviews of these orders
and will conduct administrative reviews
of subject merchandise entered prior to
the effective date of revocation in
response to appropriately filed requests
for review.
These five-year sunset reviews and
notice are in accordance with section
751(d)(2) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: January 31, 2008.

Germany, Italy, South Korea, and the United Kingdom, and the CVD order
on SSB from Italy. See Initiation of Five-Year (``Sunset'') Reviews, 72
FR 4689 (February 1, 2007).
As a result of its sunset reviews of these orders, the Department
found that revocation of the AD orders would be likely to lead to the

Determination
As a result of the determination by the ITC that revocation of
these orders is not likely to lead to the continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the United States, the Department,
pursuant to section 751(d) of the Act, is revoking the AD orders on SSB
from France, Germany, Italy, South Korea, and the United Kingdom, and
