determinations by the Department of
Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’) and the
International Trade Commission
(‘‘ITC’’), the Department is issuing an
antidumping duty order on laminated
woven sacks from the People’s Republic
of China (‘‘PRC’’). On July 30, 2008, the
ITC notified the Department of its
affirmative determination of material
injury to a U.S. industry. See Laminated
Woven Sacks from China, Investigation
No. 731–TA–1122 (Final), USITC

Background
In accordance with sections 735(d)
and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), on June 24,

Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value and Partial Affirmative
Determination of Critical
Circumstances, 73 FR 35646 (June 24,
2008) (‘‘Final Determination’’).
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by this
investigation is laminated woven sacks.
Laminated woven sacks are bags or
sacks consisting of one or more plies of
fabric consisting of woven
polypropylene strip and/or woven
polyethylene strip, regardless of the
width of the strip; with or without an
extrusion coating of polypropylene and/
or polyethylene on one or both sides of
the fabric; laminated by any method
either to an exterior ply of plastic film
such as biaxially-oriented
polypropylene (‘‘BOPP’’) or to an
exterior ply of paper that is suitable for
high quality print graphics; 1 printed
with three colors or more in register;
with or without lining; whether or not
closed on one end; whether or not in
roll form (including sheets, lay-flat
tubing, and sleeves); with or without
handles; with or without special closing
features; not exceeding one kilogram in
weight. Laminated woven sacks are
typically used for retail packaging of
consumer goods such as pet foods and
bird seed.
Effective July 1, 2007, laminated
woven sacks are classifiable under
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) subheadings
6305.33.0050 and 6305.33.0080.
Laminated woven sacks were previously
classifiable under HTSUS subheading
6305.33.0020. If entered with plastic
coating on both sides of the fabric
consisting of woven polypropylene strip
and/or woven polyethylene strip,
laminated woven sacks may be
classifiable under HTSUS subheadings
3923.21.0080, 3923.21.0095, and
3923.29.0000. If entered not closed on
one end or in roll form (including
sheets, lay-flat tubing, and sleeves),
laminated woven sacks may be
classifiable under other HTSUS
subheadings including 3917.39.0050,
3921.90.1100, 3921.90.1500, and
5903.90.2500. If the polypropylene
strips and/or polyethylene strips making
up the fabric measure more than 5
millimeters in width, laminated woven
sacks may be classifiable under other
HTSUS subheadings including
4601.99.0500, 4601.99.9000, and
4602.90.0000. Although HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of this
investigation is dispositive.
Provisional Measures
Section 733(d) of the Act states that
suspension of liquidation instructions
issued pursuant to an affirmative
preliminary determination may not
remain in effect for more than four
months except where exporters
representing a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise
request the Department to extend that
four-month period to no more than six
months. At the request of exporters that
account for a significant proportion of
LWS, we extended the four-month
period to no more than six months. See
Laminated Woven Sacks From the
People’s Republic of China: Preliminary
Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value, Partial Affirmative
Determination of Critical
Circumstances, and Postponement of
Final Determination, 73 FR 5801, 5811
(January 31, 2008) (‘‘Preliminary
Determination’’). In this investigation,
the six-month period beginning on the
date of the publication of the
Preliminary Determination, (i.e., January
31, 2008) ended on July 28, 2008.
Furthermore, section 737 of the Act
states that definitive duties are to begin
on the date of publication of the ITC’s
final injury determination. Therefore, in
accordance with section 733(d) of the
Act, we will instruct U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) to terminate
suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate without regard to antidumping
duties (i.e., release all bonds and refund
all cash deposits with interest),
unliquidated entries of LWS from the
PRC entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption after July
29, 2008, and before the date of
publication of the ITC’s final injury
determination in the Federal Register.
Suspension of liquidation will continue
on or after the date of publication of the
ITC’s final injury determination in the
Federal Register.
Antidumping Duty Order
On July 30, 2008, in accordance with
section 735(d) of the Act, the ITC
notified the Department of its final
determination, pursuant to section
735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, that an
industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of lessthan-fair-value imports of subject
merchandise from the PRC. Therefore,
in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of
the Act, the Department will direct CBP
to assess, upon further instruction by
the Department, antidumping duties
equal to the amount by which the
normal value of the merchandise
exceeds the export price (or constructed
export price) of the merchandise for all
relevant entries of laminated woven
sacks from the PRC. These antidumping
duties will be assessed on all
unliquidated entries of laminated
woven sacks from the PRC entered, or
withdrawn from the warehouse, for
consumption on or after January 31,
2008, the date on which the Department
published its preliminary
determination. See Preliminary
Determination.
The ITC also notified the Department
that it made a negative critical
circumstances determination in this
investigation. Therefore, we will
instruct CBP to lift suspension, release
any bond or other security, and refund
any cash deposit made to secure the
payment of antidumping duties with
respect to entries of the merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after November
2, 2007, but before January 31, 2008
(i.e., the 90 days prior to the date of
publication of the Preliminary
Determination).
Effective on the date of publication of
the ITC’s final affirmative injury
determination, CBP will require, at the
same time as importers would normally
deposit estimated duties on this
merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the
estimated weighted-average
antidumping duty margins as listed
below. See section 735(c)(3) of the Act.
The ‘‘PRC-wide’’ rate applies to all
exporters of subject merchandise not
specifically listed. The weightedaverage dumping margins are as follows:

the Department of Commerce (the
Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on CMC from
the Netherlands. This administrative
review covers imports of subject
merchandise produced and exported by
CP Kelco (formerly known as Noviant
B.V.).2 The period of review (POR) is
July 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007.
We preliminarily determine that sales
of subject merchandise by CP Kelco
have been made at less than normal
value (NV). If these preliminary results
are adopted in our final results, we will
instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping
duties on appropriate entries based on
the difference between the export price
(EP) or constructed export price (CEP)
and NV. Interested parties are invited to
comment on these preliminary results.

SUMMARY: Based on affirmative final determinations by the Department of
Commerce (the ``Department'') and the International Trade Commission
(``ITC''), the Department is issuing an antidumping duty order on
laminated woven sacks from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''). On
July 30, 2008, the ITC notified the Department of its affirmative
determination of material injury to a U.S. industry. See Laminated
Woven Sacks from China, Investigation No. 731-TA-1122 (Final), USITC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In accordance with sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the ``Act''), on June 24, 2008, the Department
published Laminated Woven Sacks from the People's Republic of China:
Final

Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Partial Affirmative
Determination of Critical Circumstances, 73 FR 35646 (June 24, 2008)
(``Final Determination'').
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by this investigation is laminated woven
sacks. Laminated woven sacks are bags or sacks consisting of one or
more plies of fabric consisting of woven polypropylene strip and/or
woven polyethylene strip, regardless of the width of the strip; with or
without an extrusion coating of polypropylene and/or polyethylene on
one or both sides of the fabric; laminated by any method either to an
exterior ply of plastic film such as biaxially-oriented polypropylene
(``BOPP'') or to an exterior ply of paper that is suitable for high
quality print graphics; \1\ printed with three colors or more in
register; with or without lining; whether or not closed on one end;
whether or not in roll form (including sheets, lay-flat tubing, and
sleeves); with or without handles; with or without special closing
features; not exceeding one kilogram in weight. Laminated woven sacks
are typically used for retail packaging of consumer goods such as pet
foods and bird seed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ ``Paper suitable for high quality print graphics,'' as used
herein, means paper having an ISO brightness of 82 or higher and a
Sheffield Smoothness of 250 or less. Coated free sheet is an example
of a paper suitable for high quality print graphics.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effective July 1, 2007, laminated woven sacks are classifiable
under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'')
subheadings 6305.33.0050 and 6305.33.0080. Laminated woven sacks were
previously classifiable under HTSUS subheading 6305.33.0020. If entered
with plastic coating on both sides of the fabric consisting of woven
polypropylene strip and/or woven polyethylene strip, laminated woven
sacks may be classifiable under HTSUS subheadings 3923.21.0080,
3923.21.0095, and 3923.29.0000. If entered not closed on one end or in
roll form (including sheets, lay-flat tubing, and sleeves), laminated
woven sacks may be classifiable under other HTSUS subheadings including
3917.39.0050, 3921.90.1100, 3921.90.1500, and 5903.90.2500. If the
polypropylene strips and/or polyethylene strips making up the fabric
measure more than 5 millimeters in width, laminated woven sacks may be
classifiable under other HTSUS subheadings including 4601.99.0500,
4601.99.9000, and 4602.90.0000. Although HTSUS subheadings are provided
for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the
scope of this investigation is dispositive.
Provisional Measures
Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation
instructions issued pursuant to an affirmative preliminary
determination may not remain in effect for more than four months except
where exporters representing a significant proportion of exports of the
subject merchandise request the Department to extend that four-month
period to no more than six months. At the request of exporters that
account for a significant proportion of LWS, we extended the four-month
period to no more than six months. See Laminated Woven Sacks From the
People's Republic of China: Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less
Than Fair Value, Partial Affirmative Determination of Critical
Circumstances, and Postponement of Final Determination, 73 FR 5801,
5811 (January 31, 2008) (``Preliminary Determination''). In this
investigation, the six-month period beginning on the date of the
publication of the Preliminary Determination, (i.e., January 31, 2008)
ended on July 28, 2008. Furthermore, section 737 of the Act states that
definitive duties are to begin on the date of publication of the ITC's
final injury determination. Therefore, in accordance with section
733(d) of the Act, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(``CBP'') to terminate suspension of liquidation and to liquidate
without regard to antidumping duties (i.e., release all bonds and
refund all cash deposits with interest), unliquidated entries of LWS
from the PRC entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption
after July 29, 2008, and before the date of publication of the ITC's
final injury determination in the Federal Register. Suspension of
liquidation will continue on or after the date of publication of the
ITC's final injury determination in the Federal Register.
Antidumping Duty Order
On July 30, 2008, in accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, the
ITC notified the Department of its final determination, pursuant to
section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, that an industry in the United
States is materially injured by reason of less-than-fair-value imports
of subject merchandise from the PRC. Therefore, in accordance with
section 736(a)(1) of the Act, the Department will direct CBP to assess,
upon further instruction by the Department, antidumping duties equal to
the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the
export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise for all
relevant entries of laminated woven sacks from the PRC. These
antidumping duties will be assessed on all unliquidated entries of
laminated woven sacks from the PRC entered, or withdrawn from the
warehouse, for consumption on or after January 31, 2008, the date on
which the Department published its preliminary determination. See
Preliminary Determination.
The ITC also notified the Department that it made a negative
critical circumstances determination in this investigation. Therefore,
we will instruct CBP to lift suspension, release any bond or other
security, and refund any cash deposit made to secure the payment of
antidumping duties with respect to entries of the merchandise entered,
or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after November 2,
2007, but before January 31, 2008 (i.e., the 90 days prior to the date
of publication of the Preliminary Determination).
Effective on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative
injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as importers
would normally deposit estimated duties on this merchandise, a cash
deposit equal to the estimated weighted-average antidumping duty
margins as listed below. See section 735(c)(3) of the Act. The ``PRC-
wide'' rate applies to all exporters of subject merchandise not
specifically listed. The weighted-average dumping margins are as
follows:
