Notice of Initiation of Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's Republic of China, 12387-12392 [E8-4548]

Download as PDF 12387 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 46 / Friday, March 7, 2008 / Notices aggregating the dumping margins calculated for all U.S. sales to each importer and dividing this amount by the total quantity of those sales. To determine whether the duty assessment rates were de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent) in accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we calculated importerspecific ad valorem rates based on the estimated entered value. Where the assessment rate is above de minimis, we will instruct CBP to assess duties on all entries of subject merchandise by that importer. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to antidumping duties any entries for which the assessment rate is de minimis. The Department clarified its ‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on May 6, 2003. See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). This clarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the respondent for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this clarification, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon completion of the final results of this administrative review for all shipments of SSB from India entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the reviewed companies will be the rate established in the final results of this administrative review (except no cash deposit will be required if its weighted-average margin is de minimis); (2) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, but was covered in a previous review or the original less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’) investigation, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; and (3) if neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered in this or any previous reviews, or the original LTFV investigation, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers and/or exporters of this merchandise, shall be 12.45 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation. See Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Stainless Steel Bar from India, 59 FR 66915 (December 28, 1994). Notification to Importers This notice also serves as a preliminary 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 entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Secretary’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. We are issuing and publishing these results of review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: September 28, 2008. Stephen J. Claeys, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.

Notice of No Sales The companies on which we are initiating this review, should notify the Department within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Federal Register if they had no shipments, entries or sales of the merchandise under consideration during the POR. sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES Separate Rates In proceedings involving non-market economy (‘‘NME’’) countries, the Department begins with a rebuttable presumption that all companies within the country are subject to government control and, thus, should be assigned a single antidumping duty deposit rate. It is the Department’s policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to an administrative review in an NME country this single rate unless an exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as to be entitled to a separate rate. To establish whether a firm is sufficiently independent from government control of its export activities to be entitled to a separate rate, the Department analyzes each entity exporting the subject merchandise under a test arising from the Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Sparklers from the People’s Republic of China, 56 FR 20588 (May 6, 1991) (‘‘Sparklers’’), as amplified by Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Silicon Carbide from the People’s Republic of China, 59 FR 22585 (May 2,1994) (‘‘Silicon Carbide’’). In accordance with the separate-rates criteria, the Department assigns separate rates to companies in NME cases only if respondents can demonstrate the absence of both de jure and de facto VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:46 Mar 06, 2008 Jkt 214001 government control over export activities. In order for exporters or producers to obtain separate-rate status in NME administrative reviews, the Department requires parties to submit a separate-rate status application or certification. See Policy Bulletin 05.1: Separate-Rates Practice and Application of Combination Rates in Antidumping Investigations Involving Non-Market Economy Countries (April 5, 2005), available on the Department’s Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/policy/bull05– 1.pdf. Due to the large number of firms requesting an administrative review in this proceeding, the Department is requiring all firms listed above that wish to qualify for separate-rate status in this administrative review to complete, as appropriate, either a separate-rate status application or certification, as described below. For this administrative review, in order to demonstrate separate-rate eligibility, the Department requires entities for whom a review was requested, that were assigned a separate rate in the most recent segment of this proceeding in which they participated, to certify that they continue to meet the criteria for obtaining a separate rate. The Separate Rate Certification form will be available on the Department’s Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/ on the date of publication of this Federal Register. In responding to the certification, please follow the ‘‘Instructions for Filing the Certification’’ in the Separate Rate Certification. Separate Rate Certifications are due to the Department no later than April 6, 2008. The deadline and requirement for submitting a Certification applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 firms, and foreign sellers who purchase and export subject merchandise to the United States. For entities that have not previously been assigned a separate rate, to demonstrate eligibility for such, the Department requires a Separate Rate Status Application. The Separate Rate Status Application will be available on the Department’s Web site at https:// ia.ita.doc.gov/ on the date of publication of this Federal Register. In responding to the Separate Rate Status Application, refer to the instructions contained in the application. Separate Rate Status Applications are due to the Department no later than May 6, 2008. The deadline and requirement for submitting a Separate Rate Status Application applies equally to NME-owned firms, wholly foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers that purchase and export subject merchandise to the United States. Section 777A(c)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’) directs the Department to calculate individual dumping margins for each known exporter and producer of the subject merchandise. Where it is not practicable to examine all known producers/ exporters of subject merchandise, section 777A(c)(2) of the Act permits the Department to examine either (1) a sample of exporters, producers or types of products that is statistically valid based on the information available at the time of selection; or (2) exporters and producers accounting for the largest volume of the subject merchandise from the exporting country that can be reasonably examined. Due to the large number of firms requested for an administrative review and the Department’s experience regarding the resulting administrative burden to review each company for which a E:\FR\FM\07MRN1.SGM 07MRN1 12392 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 46 / Friday, March 7, 2008 / Notices request has been made, the Department is considering exercising its authority to limit the number of respondents selected for review using one of the two methods described above.

In other words, the Department will not give consideration to any Separate Rate Certification or Separate Rate Status Application made by parties who fail to timely submit the requisite Separate Rate Certification or Application. All information submitted by respondents in this administrative review is subject to verification. To complete this segment within the statutory time frame, the Department will be limited in its ability to extend deadlines on the above submissions.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 7, 2008. SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’) received timely requests to conduct new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’). In accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), we are initiating new shipper reviews for Golden Well International (HK), Ltd. (‘‘Golden Well’’) and its supplier Zhangzhou XYM Furniture Product Co., Ltd. (Zhangzhou XYM), and for Dongguan Sunshine Furniture Co., Ltd. (‘‘Sunshine’’).

AGENCY: The Department received timely requests from Sunshine and Golden Well on January 4 and 31, 2008 respectively, pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), and in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(c), for new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC. See Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People’s Republic of China, 70 FR 329 (January 4, 2005). Pursuant to the requirements set forth in 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), in their requests for new shipper reviews, Golden Well, as an exporter, and its supplier Zhangzhou XYM, and Sunshine, as a producing exporter, all certified that (1) they did not export wooden bedroom furniture to the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 United States during the period of investigation (‘‘POI’’); (2) since the initiation of the investigation, they have never been affiliated with any company that exported subject merchandise to the United States during the POI; and (3) their export activities were not controlled by the central government of the PRC. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iv), Golden Well and Sunshine submitted documentation establishing the following: (1) the date on which they first shipped wooden bedroom furniture for export to the United States; (2) the volume of their first shipment; and (3) the date of their first sale to an unaffiliated customer in the United States. Initiation of New Shipper Review In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), and based on information on the record, we find that Golden Well’S and Sunshine’s requests meet the initiation threshold requirements and we are initiating new shipper reviews for shipments of wooden bedroom furniture exported by Golden Well that were produced by Zhangzhou XYM, and shipments of wooden bedroom furniture produced and exported by Sunshine. See Memorandum to the File through Wendy J. Frankel, Director, New Shipper Initiation Checklist, dated February 29, 2008. The Department will conduct these new shipper reviews according to the deadlines set forth in section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(g)(1)(i)(A), the period of review (‘‘POR’’) for a new shipper review initiated in the month immediately following the anniversary month will be the 12-month period immediately preceding the anniversary month. In this case, the relevant anniversary month of the order is January 2008. Therefore, the POR for the new shipper reviews of Golden Well and Sunshine will be January 1 through December 31, 2007. It is the Department’s usual practice, in cases involving non–market economies, to require that a company seeking to establish eligibility for an antidumping duty rate separate from the country–wide rate provide evidence of de jure and de facto absence of government control over the company’s export activities. Accordingly, we will issue questionnaires to Golden Well and Sunshine, which will include a separate–rate section. The reviews will proceed if the responses provide sufficient indication that Golden Well and Sunshine are not subject to either de jure or de facto government control E:\FR\FM\07MRN1.SGM 07MRN1

\1\ If one of the above named companies does not qualify for a separate
  rate, all other exporters of wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC
  that have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed to be covered
  by this review as part of the single PRC entity of which the named
  exporter is a part.
 * These companies received a separate rate in the most recent segment
  of this proceeding in which they participated.

Notice of No Sales

    The companies on which we are initiating this review, should notify 
the Department within 30 days of publication of this notice in the 
Federal Register if they had no shipments, entries or sales of the 
merchandise under consideration during the POR.

Separate Rates

    In proceedings involving non-market economy (``NME'') countries, 
the Department begins with a rebuttable presumption that all companies 
within the country are subject to government control and, thus, should 
be assigned a single antidumping duty deposit rate. It is the 
Department's policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to 
an administrative review in an NME country this single rate unless an 
exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as to 
be entitled to a separate rate.
    To establish whether a firm is sufficiently independent from 
government control of its export activities to be entitled to a 
separate rate, the Department analyzes each entity exporting the 
subject merchandise under a test arising from the Final Determination 
of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Sparklers from the People's Republic 
of China, 56 FR 20588 (May 6, 1991) (``Sparklers''), as amplified by 
Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Silicon Carbide 
from the People's Republic of China, 59 FR 22585 (May 2,1994) 
(``Silicon Carbide''). In accordance with the separate-rates criteria, 
the Department assigns separate rates to companies in NME cases only if 
respondents can demonstrate the absence of both de jure and de facto 
government control over export activities.
    In order for exporters or producers to obtain separate-rate status 
in NME administrative reviews, the Department requires parties to 
submit a separate-rate status application or certification. See Policy 
Bulletin 05.1: Separate-Rates Practice and Application of Combination 
Rates in Antidumping Investigations Involving Non-Market Economy 
Countries (April 5, 2005), available on the Department's Web site at 
https://ia.ita.doc.gov/policy/bull05-1.pdf.
    Due to the large number of firms requesting an administrative 
review in this proceeding, the Department is requiring all firms listed 
above that wish to qualify for separate-rate status in this 
administrative review to complete, as appropriate, either a separate-
rate status application or certification, as described below.
    For this administrative review, in order to demonstrate separate-
rate eligibility, the Department requires entities for whom a review 
was requested, that were assigned a separate rate in the most recent 
segment of this proceeding in which they participated, to certify that 
they continue to meet the criteria for obtaining a separate rate. The 
Separate Rate Certification form will be available on the Department's 
Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/ on the date of publication of this 
Federal Register. In responding to the certification, please follow the 
``Instructions for Filing the Certification'' in the Separate Rate 
Certification. Separate Rate Certifications are due to the Department 
no later than April 6, 2008. The deadline and requirement for 
submitting a Certification applies equally to NME-owned firms, wholly 
foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers who purchase and export 
subject merchandise to the United States.
    For entities that have not previously been assigned a separate 
rate, to demonstrate eligibility for such, the Department requires a 
Separate Rate Status Application. The Separate Rate Status Application 
will be available on the Department's Web site at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov/ on the date of publication of this Federal Register. In 
responding to the Separate Rate Status Application, refer to the 
instructions contained in the application. Separate Rate Status 
Applications are due to the Department no later than May 6, 2008. The 
deadline and requirement for submitting a Separate Rate Status 
Application applies equally to NME-owned firms, wholly foreign-owned 
firms, and foreign sellers that purchase and export subject merchandise 
to the United States.
    Section 777A(c)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act'') directs the Department to calculate individual dumping margins 
for each known exporter and producer of the subject merchandise. Where 
it is not practicable to examine all known producers/exporters of 
subject merchandise, section 777A(c)(2) of the Act permits the 
Department to examine either (1) a sample of exporters, producers or 
types of products that is statistically valid based on the information 
available at the time of selection; or (2) exporters and producers 
accounting for the largest volume of the subject merchandise from the 
exporting country that can be reasonably examined. Due to the large 
number of firms requested for an administrative review and the 
Department's experience regarding the resulting administrative burden 
to review each company for which a

[[Page 12392]]

request has been made, the Department is considering exercising its 
authority to limit the number of respondents selected for review using 
one of the two methods described above.

Selection of Respondents

    For this administrative review, the Department intends to select 
respondents based on U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') data 
for U.S. imports during the period of review (``POR''). We intend to 
make our decisions regarding respondent selection within 20 days of 
publication of this Federal Register notice. The Department invites 
comments regarding the CBP data and the selection of respondents within 
seven days of publication of this Federal Register notice.

Notification

    This notice constitutes public notification to all firms requested 
for review and seeking separate-rate status in this administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from 
the PRC that they must submit a separate-rate status application or 
certification, as appropriate, within the time limits established in 
this notice of initiation of administrative review in order to receive 
consideration for separate-rate status. In other words, the Department 
will not give consideration to any Separate Rate Certification or 
Separate Rate Status Application made by parties who fail to timely 
submit the requisite Separate Rate Certification or Application. All 
information submitted by respondents in this administrative review is 
subject to verification. To complete this segment within the statutory 
time frame, the Department will be limited in its ability to extend 
deadlines on the above submissions. As noted above, the Separate Rate 
Certification and the Separate Rate Status Application will be 
available on the Department's Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/ on the 
date of publication of this Federal Register.
    Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under 
administrative protective order in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. 
Instructions for filing such applications may be found on the 
Department's Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov.
    This initiation and notice are in accordance with section 751(a) of 
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i).

    Dated: February 29, 2008.

Acting Director, AD/CVD Operations, Office 8, for Import 
Administration.
