Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of the
comments received, we have made
certain changes in the margin
calculations. These changes are
discussed in the relevant sections of the
Decision Memorandum and the
Memorandum to the File from Michael
J. Heaney dated November 3, 2009
(Analysis Memorandum). Specifically,
for these final results:
1) We have deducted from NV the
inland freight expenses incurred by
Kolon in shipping PET film from its
plant to its warehouse.
2) We have calculated a single,
importer–specific assessment rate
for Kolon’s CEP sales.
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the publication date, as provided
for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
because the rate for Kolon is de
minimis, i.e., less than 0.5 percent, no
cash deposit will be required for Kolon;
(2) if the exporter is not a firm covered
in this review or the less than fair value
(LTFV) investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and (3) if neither the
exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm
covered in this or any previous review,
the cash deposit rate will be the all–
others rate of 21.50 percent from the
LTFV investigation. See Polyethylene

of the antidumping duty order on CTL
plate from the PRC and termination of
the Agreements on CTL plate from
Russia and Ukraine would likely lead to
a continuation or recurrence of dumping
and notified the ITC of the magnitude of
the margins likely to prevail, should the
order and the Agreements be revoked or
terminated, respectively. See Certain

the People’s Republic of China: Notice
of Final Results of Expedited Sunset

On October 13, 2009, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Act, the ITC
determined that revocation of the
antidumping duty order on CTL plate
from the PRC and termination of the
Agreements on CTL plate from Russia
and Ukraine would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. See Cut–to-Length Carbon Steel
Plate From China, Russia, and Ukraine,
74 FR 56666 (November 2, 2009).
Therefore, pursuant to section
351.218(f)(4) of the Department’s
regulations, the Department is
publishing this notice of the
continuation of the antidumping duty
order on CTL plate from the PRC and
continuation of the Agreements on CTL
plate from Russia and Ukraine.

antidumping duty order and the
Agreements are hot–rolled iron and
non–alloy steel universal mill plates
(i.e., flat–rolled 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 thickness of not less
than 4 mm, not in coils and without
patterns in relief), of rectangular shape,
neither clad, plated nor coated with
metal, whether or not painted,
varnished, or coated with plastics or
other nonmetallic substances; and

twice the thickness. Included as subject
merchandise in this order and these
Agreements are flat–rolled products of
nonrectangular cross- section where
such cross-section is achieved
subsequent to the rolling process (i.e.,
products which have been ‘‘worked
after rolling’’)--for example, products
which have been bevelled or rounded at
the edges. This merchandise is currently
classified in the Harmonized Tariff

Continuation
As a result of the respective
determinations by the Department and
the ITC that revocation of the
antidumping duty order on CTL plate
from the PRC and termination of the
Agreements on CTL plate from Russia
and Ukraine would likely lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department
hereby gives notice of the continuation
of the antidumping duty order on CTL
plate from the PRC and the continuation
of the Agreements on CTL plate from
Russia and Ukraine. The effective dates
of continuation will be the date of
publication in the Federal Register of
this Continuation Notice. Pursuant to
sections 751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the
Act, the Department intends to initiate
the next five-year sunset reviews of the
antidumping duty order on CTL plate
from the PRC and the Agreements on
CTL plate from Russia and Ukraine not
later than October 2014.
These five-year (sunset) reviews and

SUMMARY: On May 7, 2009, the
Department of Commerce (the
‘‘Department’’) published in the Federal
Register the preliminary results of the
first administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
activated carbon from the People’s

Results of the Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review and Extension of
Time Limits for the Final Results, 74 FR

Results’’). We gave interested parties an
opportunity to comment on the
Preliminary Results. Based upon our
analysis of the comments and
information received, we made changes
to the margin calculations for the final
results. We continue to find that certain
exporters have sold subject merchandise
at less than normal value during the
period of review (‘‘POR’’), October 11,
2006, through March 31, 2008.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 10, 2009.
