On September 3, 2009, the Department requested comments from Petitioner with regard to the effective date for the final results of this changed circumstances review. On September 9, 2009, Petitioner submitted a letter in which it stated that it took no position regarding the effective date for the final results in this changed circumstances review. On September 11, 2009, the Department received comments from Target Corporation requesting that the final results of this changed circumstances review be applied retroactively to all unliquidated entries. Scope of the Changed Circumstances Review The merchandise covered by this changed circumstances review is steel wire garment hangers from the PRC meeting the following criteria: the steel wire garment hanger must be chromeplated with a diameter of 3.4 mm or greater. Effective upon publication of these final results of changed circumstances review in the Federal Register, the amended scope of the Order will read as stated below. pwalker on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES Scope of the Amended Order The merchandise that is subject to the order is steel wire garment hangers, fabricated from carbon steel wire, whether or not galvanized or painted, whether or not coated with latex or epoxy or similar gripping materials, and/or whether or not fashioned with paper covers or capes (with or without printing) and/or nonslip features such as saddles or tubes. These products may also be referred to by a commercial designation, such as shirt, suit, strut, caped, or latex (industrial) hangers. Specifically excluded from the scope of the order are wooden, plastic, and other garment hangers that are not made of steel wire. Also excluded from the scope of the order are chrome-plated steel wire garment hangers with a diameter of 3.4 mm or greater. The products subject to the order are currently classified under HTSUS subheadings 7326.20.0020 and 7323.99.9060. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise is dispositive. 3 See Letter from Merrick, Re: Steel Wire Garment Hangers From the People’s Republic of China; A– 570–918; Notice of Withdrawal by Merrick Engineering, Inc., submitted on August 19, 2009. VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:40 Oct 01, 2009 Jkt 220001 Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review; Partial Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order In accordance with section 751(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.222(g), the Department continues to find, as it did in the Initiation and Preliminary Results, that U.S. producers representing substantially all of the production of the domestic like product pertaining to the part of the Order to be revoked have expressed a lack of interest in the part of the revoked Order. Specifically, we find that Petitioner and Supporters represent substantially all U.S. production of the like product, have expressed an affirmative statement of no interest concerning chrome-plated steel wire garment hangers with a diameter of 3.4 mm or greater, as described herein, and that this constitutes changed circumstances sufficient to warrant revocation of this Order in part. Additionally, although the Department requested domestic production data from Merrick and Petitioner, Merrick subsequently withdrew its opposition to Petitioner’s request to revoke the Order, in part. Therefore, the Department finds that there is no domestic industry opposition, on the record of this review, to Petitioner’s request to revoke the Order, in part, with regard to chromeplated steel wire garment hangers with a diameter of 3.4 mm or greater. Accordingly, the Department is partially revoking the Order on steel wire garment hangers from the PRC with respect to chrome-plated steel wire garment hangers with a diameter of 3.4 mm or greater, in accordance with sections 751(b), (d) and 782(h) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.216(d) and 351.222(g) of the Department’s regulations. In this changed circumstances review we are revoking the Order, in part, retroactively, in accordance with our normal practice for this type of changed circumstances review,4 to March 25, 2008, (the effective date of the Preliminary Determination 5 in the original less-than-fair-valueinvestigation) because entries on or after this date are not yet subject to a final determination of the amount of 4 See Stainless Steel Bar From the United Kingdom: Notice of Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review and Revocation of Order, in Part, 72 FR 65706 (November 23, 2007); see also Notice of Final Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances Review and Revocation of Order In Part: Certain Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat Products from Germany, 71 FR 66163 (November 13, 2006). 5 See Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Steel Wire Garment Hangers from the People’s Republic of China, 73 FR 15726 (March 25, 2008) (‘‘Preliminary Determination’’).
