SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 3, 2010, the Department
initiated and the ITC instituted the third
sunset reviews of the AD orders on
castings from Brazil, Canada, and the
PRC and the CVD order on castings from
Brazil, pursuant to sections 751(c) and
752 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’), respectively. See
Initiation of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Review, 75 FR 23240 (May 3, 2010). As
a result of its reviews, the Department
found that revocation of the AD orders
would likely lead to continuation or
recurrence of dumping and that
revocation of the CVD order would be
likely to lead to continuation or
recurrence of subsidization, and the
Department notified the ITC of the
margins of dumping and the subsidy
rates likely to prevail were the orders to
be revoked. See Certain Iron
Construction Castings From Brazil,
Canada, and the People’s Republic of
China: Final Results of the Expedited
Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping

Sunset Review: Heavy Iron Construction
Castings from Brazil, 75 FR 54596
(September 8, 2010).
On November 2, 2010, the ITC
determined that revocation of the AD
orders on castings from Brazil, Canada,
and the PRC and the CVD order on
castings from Brazil would be likely to
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury within a reasonably
foreseeable time. See Iron Construction
Castings From Brazil, Canada, and

Determinations
As a result of the determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of these AD and CVD orders
would be likely to lead to continuation

injury to an industry in the United
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of
the Act, the Department hereby orders
the continuation of the AD orders on
castings from Brazil, Canada, and the
PRC and the CVD order on castings from
Brazil. U.S. Customs and Border
Protection will continue to collect cash
deposits at the rates in effect at the time

Analysis of Comments Received
Manufacturer/exporter
All issues raised in the case briefs
submitted by Kolon and petitioners are
addressed in the ‘‘Issues and Decision
Memorandum’’ (Decision Memorandum)
from Susan H. Kuhbach, Acting Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Operations, to
Ronald K. Lorentzen, Deputy Assistant
Secretary for Import Administration,
dated November 12, 2010, which is
adopted by this notice. A list of issues
which parties have raised is in the
Decision Memorandum and is attached
to this notice as an appendix. Parties
can find a complete discussion of all
issues raised in this review and the
corresponding recommendations in the
Decision Memorandum which is on file
in the Central Records Unit, Room 7046,
of the main Commerce Building. In
addition, a complete version of the
Decision Memorandum can be accessed

copy and the electronic version of the
Decision Memorandum are identical in

Kolon Industries, Inc
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of the
comments received, we have made
certain changes in the margin
calculations which are discussed in the
relevant sections of the Decision
Memorandum and the Memorandum to
the File, ‘‘Analysis of Data Submitted by
Kolon Industries, Inc. (Kolon) for the
Final Results of Polyethylene
Terephthalate Film, Sheet, and Strip
from Korea (A–580–807)’’, dated
November 12, 2010.
Specifically, we have made the
following changes to the margin
calculation:
• We revised Kolon’s general and
administrative expense ratio to (1)
exclude from the numerator a reported
gain on the sale of land; and (2) offset
the denominator by the reported scrap
revenue sold during the POR.
• We also corrected clerical errors
identified by Kolon which relate to SAS
programming language in the U.S.
Margin Program. In particular, we
modified the U.S. Margin Program to
reflect numeric values for certain
product characteristics originally
assigned a character value in the
Preliminary Results.
Margin
de minimis (0.28
percent).
Assessment
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b), the
Department will determine, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. The Department
will issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of the final
results of this review. For assessment
purposes, where possible, we calculated
importer-specific (or customer-specific)
ad valorem assessment rates for PET
film from Korea based on the ratio of the
total amount of the dumping duties
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of those same sales.
See 19 CFR 351.212(b). However, where
Kolon did not report the entered value
for its sales, we will calculate importerspecific (or customer-specific) per unit
duty assessment rates. We will instruct
CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review if any assessment rate calculated
in the final results of this review is
above de minimis.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of this final results of
review for all shipments of the subject
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 allothers rate of 21.50 percent from the
LTFV investigation. See Polyethylene
Terephthalate Film, Sheet, and Strip

Background
The MMPA provides for interested
parties to submit a petition to designate
a population stock of marine mammals
as depleted. Section 115(a)(3) of the
MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1383b(a)(3)) requires
NMFS to publish a notice in the Federal
Register that such a petition has been
received and is available for public
review. Within 60 days of receiving a
petition, NMFS must publish a finding
in the Federal Register as to whether
the petition presents substantial
information indicating that the
petitioned action may be warranted.
On November 9, 2010, NMFS
published a notice announcing receipt
of a petition to designate the Eastern
North Pacific population of gray whales
(Eschrichtius robustus) as a depleted
stock under the Marine Mammal
Protection Act (MMPA) and solicited
comments on the petition (75 FR
68756). That Federal Register notice
began NMFS’ 15-day public comment
period ending on November 24, 2010.
NMFS received the petition on October
21, 2010, and therefore must publish its
60-day finding no later than December
20, 2010.
NMFS subsequently received a
request by the petitioners, the California
Gray Whale Coalition, to extend the
public comment period by 15 days to
provide interested parties additional
time to review the petition, compile
additional materials, and prepare
comments for submission to the agency.
Since then, NMFS has received other
requests to extend the public comment
period. In this notice NMFS is
extending the public comment period
until December 8, 2010, to allow
adequate time for the public to review
and comment on the petition while
allowing the agency sufficient time to
thoughtfully consider public comments.
To provide a more extended public
comment period would preclude NMFS
from meeting its statutory requirements
under the MMPA to provide a
determination within 60 days.

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by this order are shipments of all gauges of raw,
pretreated, or primed polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet, and
strip, whether extruded or coextruded. The films excluded from this
review are metallized films and other finished films that have had at
least one of their surfaces modified by the application of a
performance-enhancing resinous or inorganic layer more than 0.00001
inches (0.254 micrometers) thick.
PET film is currently classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department will determine, and
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. The
Department will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to
CBP 15 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review. For assessment purposes, where possible, we calculated
importer-specific (or customer-specific) ad valorem assessment rates
for PET film from Korea based on the ratio of the total amount of the
dumping duties calculated for the examined sales to the total entered
value of those same sales. See 19 CFR 351.212(b). However, where Kolon
did not report the entered value for its sales, we will calculate
importer-specific (or customer-specific) per unit duty assessment
rates. We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review if any assessment rate
calculated in the final results of this review is above de minimis.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of this final results of review for all shipments of the
subject 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 Terephthalate
Film, Sheet, and Strip From the Republic of Korea; Notice of Final
