Manufacturer: Dectris Ltd., Switzerland. Intended Use: The instrument will be used to study SmallAngle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) for chemical, biological, and materials science, time resolved diffraction, and x-ray surface diffraction for magnetic materials. The instrument is the first and only commercially available pixel array detector for x-ray applications. The instrument’s unique capabilities are a high detection efficiency (no readout noise and direct detection scheme), high dynamic range (20-bits), and fast readout speeds. Justification for DutyFree Entry: There are no instruments of the same general category being manufactured in the United States. Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: December 6, 2010.

DATES: Effective Date: December 30, 2010. SUMMARY: As a result of the determinations by the Department of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) and the International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) that revocation of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, the Department is publishing a notice of continuation of the antidumping duty order. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Magd Zalok, AD/CVD Operations, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–4162. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 1, 2009, the Department published the notice of initiation of a sunset review of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 74 FR 62748 (December 1, 2009). As a result of its review, the Department determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail should the order be revoked. See Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Expedited Sunset Review of Antidumping Duty Order, 75 FR 19364 (April 14, 2010). On November 30, 2010, the ITC determined, pursuant to section 751(c) jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:35 Dec 29, 2010 Jkt 223001 of the Act, that revocation of the antidumping duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.
