with respect to the following two
companies:
1. Hangzhou Zhongce Rubber Co.,
Ltd. (Zhongce)
2. Tianjin United Tire & Rubber
International Co., Ltd. (TUTRIC)
This partial rescission is based on
withdrawals by GPX International Tire

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department published a notice of
opportunity to request an administrative
review of the countervailing duty order
on OTR Tires from the PRC. See

(September 1, 2009). GPX timely
requested an administrative review of
the countervailing duty order on OTR
Tires from the PRC for the period
December 17, 2007 through December
31, 2008 for several companies,
including TUTRIC. In addition, the
Department received timely requests
from Zhongce and TUTRIC. These two
companies only requested reviews of
themselves.
In accordance with section 751(a)(1)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended,
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i),
the Department published a notice
initiating an administrative review of
the countervailing duty order. See
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in
Part, 74 FR 54956 (October 26, 2009).
On December 30, 2009, the
Department rescinded the review with
respect to the following six companies,
pursuant to a timely withdrawal by GPX
of its request for reviews of these
companies: Aeolus Tyre Co. Ltd.,
Guizhou Tire Co. Ltd., Jiangsu Feichi
Co., Ltd., Shandong Huitong Tyre Co.,
Ltd., Tianjin Wanda Tyre Co., Ltd., and
Triangle Tyre Co., Ltd. See Certain New
Pneumatic Off–the-Road Tires From the
People’s Republic of China: Partial
Rescission of Countervailing Duty
Administrative Review, 75 FR 846
(December 30, 2009). On November 20,
2009, GPX withdrew its request for
review of Zhongce and TUTRIC, and on
January 4, 2010 and January 12, 2010,
respectively, Zhongce and TUTRIC
withdrew their requests for review.
Rescission, in Part, of Countervailing
Duty Administrative Review
The Department’s regulations provide
that the Department will rescind an
administrative review if the party that
requested the review withdraws its
request for review within 90 days of the
date of publication of the notice of
initiation. See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
Zhongce, the only party that self–
requested a review, timely withdrew its
request within the 90-day deadline. In
addition, GPX and TUTRIC, the only
parties that requested a review of
TUTRIC, each timely withdrew their
requests regarding TUTRIC within the
90-day deadline. Therefore, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
the Department is rescinding this
administrative review of the
countervailing duty order with respect
to Zhongce and TUTRIC. This
administrative review will continue
with respect to Hebei Starbright Tire Co.

This notice serves as a final reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APO) of their

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In its initiation of this investigation
(see Certain Coated Paper Suitable for
High-Quality Print Graphics Using
Sheet-Fed Presses From Indonesia and
the People’s Republic of China:
Initiation of Antidumping Duty
Investigations, 74 FR 53710 (October 20,
2009) (Initiation Notice)), the
Department stated that it had selected
PT. Pabrik Kertas Tjiwi Kimia Tbk. (TK)
and PT. Pindo Deli Pulp and Paper (PD)
as the mandatory respondents in this
investigation. See Initiation Notice, 74
FR 53714. Since the Initiation Notice,
the following events have occurred.
The Department set aside a period of
time for parties to raise issues regarding
product coverage and encouraged all
parties to submit comments within 20
calendar days of publication of the
Initiation Notice. See Initiation Notice,
74 FR at 53710; see also Antidumping
Duties; Countervailing Duties; Final
Rule, 62 FR 27296, 27323 (May 19,
1997). We received several scope
comment submissions from interested
parties during the period November
2009 through April 2010. For further
details, see ‘‘Scope Comments’’ section
of this notice. The Department also set
aside a time for parties to comment on
product characteristics for use in the
antidumping questionnaire. We
received such comments from the
respondents on November 2, 2009, and

On November 17, 2009, the U.S.
International Trade Commission (ITC)
preliminarily determined that there is a
reasonable indication that imports of
coated paper from Indonesia are
materially injuring the U.S. industry
and notified the Department of its
findings. See Certain Coated Paper

470–471 and 731–TA–1169–1170
(Preliminary), 74 FR 61174 (November
23, 2009).
On November 20, 2009, we issued PD
and TK the antidumping duty
questionnaire.
On December 16, 2009, we issued a
memorandum detailing the reasons why
it would not be practicable in this
investigation to examine individually
more than the two Indonesian
producers/exporters of coated paper
named in the Initiation Notice. See
Memorandum from James Maeder,
Office Director, to John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary,
entitled, ‘‘Certain Coated Paper Suitable
for High-Quality Print Graphics Using
Sheet-Fed Presses from Indonesia:
Selection of Respondents,’’ dated
December 16, 2009 (Respondent
Selection Memo).
On December 22, 2009, PD and TK
submitted a consolidated response to
section A (i.e., the section covering
general information about the company)
of the antidumping duty questionnaire.
In this submission, PD and TK indicated
that not only are they affiliated with
each other, but they are also affiliated
with a third company that produces
coated paper in Indonesia, PT Indah
Kiat Pulp and Paper Tbk. (IK). Based on
an analysis of the facts of record, as
discussed in the ‘‘Collapsing’’ section of
this notice below, we find that it is
appropriate to treat these companies as
a single entity, hereafter referred to as
PD/TK/IK.
On January 12, 2010, PD and TK
submitted their responses to sections B
(i.e., the section covering comparisonmarket sales) and C (i.e., the section
covering U.S. sales) of the antidumping
duty questionnaire). On January 19,
2010, PD and TK submitted their
response to section D (i.e., the section
covering cost of production (COP) and
constructed value (CV)) of the

December 31, 2008, with respect to the following two companies:
1. Hangzhou Zhongce Rubber Co., Ltd. (Zhongce)
2. Tianjin United Tire & Rubber International Co., Ltd. (TUTRIC)
This partial rescission is based on withdrawals by GPX
International Tire Corporation (GPX), Zhongce, and TUTRIC of their
requests for review.
DATES: Effective Date: May 6, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Huston, AD/CVD Operations,
Office 6, Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department published a notice of opportunity to request an
administrative review of the countervailing duty order on OTR Tires
from the PRC. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review,
74 FR 45179 (September 1, 2009). GPX timely requested an administrative
review of the countervailing duty order on OTR Tires from the PRC for
the period December 17, 2007 through December 31, 2008 for several
companies, including TUTRIC. In addition, the Department received
timely requests from Zhongce and TUTRIC. These two companies only
requested reviews of themselves.
In accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended, (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), the Department
published a notice initiating an administrative review of the
countervailing duty order. See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation
in Part, 74 FR 54956 (October 26, 2009).
On December 30, 2009, the Department rescinded the review with
respect to the following six companies, pursuant to a timely withdrawal
by GPX of its request for reviews of these companies: Aeolus Tyre Co.
Ltd., Guizhou Tire Co. Ltd., Jiangsu Feichi Co., Ltd., Shandong Huitong
Tyre Co., Ltd., Tianjin Wanda Tyre Co., Ltd., and Triangle Tyre Co.,
Ltd. See Certain New Pneumatic Off-the-Road Tires From the People's
Republic of China: Partial Rescission of Countervailing Duty
Administrative Review, 75 FR 846 (December 30, 2009). On November 20,
2009, GPX withdrew its request for review of Zhongce and TUTRIC, and on
January 4, 2010 and January 12, 2010, respectively, Zhongce and TUTRIC
withdrew their requests for review.
Rescission, in Part, of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review
The Department's regulations provide that the Department will
rescind an administrative review if the party that requested the review
withdraws its request for review within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation. See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
Zhongce, the only party that self-requested a review, timely withdrew
its request within the 90-day deadline. In addition, GPX and TUTRIC,
the only parties that requested a review of TUTRIC, each timely
withdrew their requests regarding TUTRIC within the 90-day deadline.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department is
rescinding this administrative review of the countervailing duty order
with respect to Zhongce and TUTRIC. This administrative review will
continue with respect to Hebei Starbright Tire Co.
[[Page 24885]]
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate entries. For
Zhongce and TUTRIC, countervailing duties shall be assessed at rates
equal to the cash deposit or bonding rate of the estimated
countervailing duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from
warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i).
The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions
directly to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice.

administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to govern
business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding.
