Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon-Quality
Steel Plate From Japan: Notice of
Rescission of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On March 24, 2009, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published in the Federal
Register a notice announcing the
initiation of an administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on certain
cut-to-length carbon-quality steel plate
(CTL CQ plate) from Japan. See
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in
Part, 74 FR 12310 (Initiation Notice).
The period of review (POR) is February
1, 2008 to January 31, 2009, and covers
sales or entries of CTL CQ plate by
Kawasaki Steel Corporation (Kawasaki)
and its alleged successor-in-interest, JFE
Steel Corporation (JFE). We are
rescinding this review because there
were no entries of CTL CQ plate
associated with either Kawasaki or JFE
Steel during the POR.
EFFECTIVE DATE:
May 19, 2009.

Scope of the Order:
The products covered by this order
are certain hot-rolled carbon-quality
steel: (1) Universal mill plates (i.e., flatrolled products rolled on four faces or
in a closed box pass, of a width
exceeding 150 mm but not exceeding
1250 mm, and of a nominal or actual
thickness of not less than 4 mm, which
are cut-to-length (not in coils) and
without patterns in relief), of iron or
non-alloy-quality steel; and (2) flatrolled products, hot-rolled, of a nominal
or actual thickness of 4.75 mm or more
and of a width which exceeds 150 mm
and measures at least twice the
thickness, and which are cut-to-length
(not in coils). Steel products to be
included in the scope of this order are
of rectangular, square, circular or other
shape and of rectangular or nonrectangular cross-section where such
non-rectangular cross-section is
achieved subsequent to the rolling
process (i.e., products which have been
‘‘worked after rolling’’) - for example,
products which have been beveled or
rounded at the edges. Steel products
that meet the noted physical
characteristics that are painted,
varnished or coated with plastic or other
non-metallic substances are included
within the scope of this order. Also,
specifically included in the scope of this
order are high strength, low alloy
(HSLA) steels. HSLA steels are
recognized as steels with micro-alloying
levels of elements such as chromium,
copper, niobium, titanium, vanadium,
and molybdenum. Steel products
included in this scope, regardless of
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) definitions, are
products in which: (1) Iron
predominates, by weight, over each of
the other contained elements, (2) the
carbon content is two percent or less, by
weight, and (3) none of the elements
listed below is equal to or exceeds the
quantity, by weight, respectively
indicated: 1.80 percent of manganese, or
1.50 percent of silicon, or 1.00 percent
of copper, or 0.50 percent of aluminum,
or 1.25 percent of chromium, or 0.30
percent of cobalt, or 0.40 percent of
lead, or 1.25 percent of nickel, or 0.30
percent of tungsten, or 0.10 percent of
molybdenum, or 0.10 percent of
niobium, or 0.41 percent of titanium, or
0.15 percent of vanadium, or 0.15
percent zirconium. All products that
meet the written physical description,
and in which the chemistry quantities
do not equal or exceed any one of the
levels listed above, are within the scope
of this order unless otherwise
specifically excluded.

Investigation; Opportunity to Request
Administrative Review, 74 FR 6013
(February 4, 2009). In accordance with
19 CFR 351.213(b)(1), on February 27,
Nucor Corporation, a domestic producer
of CTL CQ plate, requested a review of
this order with respect to Kawasaki
Steel Corporation (Kawasaki). On March
9, 2009, Nucor filed a letter clarifying its
February 27, 2009, request for an
administrative review of Kawasaki to
include any successors-in-interest to
Kawasaki, such as JFE.
The Department initiated the
administrative review on March 24,
2009. See Initiation Notice. On April 7,
2009, JFE notified the Department that
it had not made sales or exports of the
subject merchandise during the POR. In
addition, we reviewed the U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) import
database and found no entries of subject
merchandise associated with either JFE
or Kawasaki. We invited interested
parties to comment on this information.
See ‘‘No Shipments for Review and
Intent to Rescind,’’ memorandum to the
file dated April 16, 2009. We received
no comments.
Rescission of Review
Under 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the
Secretary may rescind an administrative
review in whole or only with respect to
a particular exporter or producer if the
Secretary concludes that there were no
entries, exports, or sales of the subject
merchandise during the POR. As only
Kawasaki and its alleged successor-ininterest JFE are subject to this
administrative review, and there were
no entries, exports, or sales of the
subject merchandise by either Kawasaki
or JFE during the POR, we are
rescinding this review of the
antidumping duty order on CTL CQ
plate from Japan in its entirety pursuant
to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). We intend to
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15
days after the date of publication of this
notice of rescission of administrative
review.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 751 of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19
CFR 351.213(d)(4).
