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withdrawn from warehouse, for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.

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.
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

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

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

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

\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.
