1 In comments made on the interim final sunset
regulations, a number of parties stated that the
proposed five-day period for rebuttals to
substantive responses to a notice of initiation was
insufficient. This requirement was retained in the
final sunset regulations at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(4). As
provided in 19 CFR 351.302(b), however, the
Department will consider individual requests to
extend that five-day deadline based upon a showing
of good cause.

Investigation; Opportunity To Request
Administrative Review
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Sheila E. Forbes, Office of AD/CVD
Operations, Customs Unit, Import
Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution
Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230,
telephone: (202) 482–4697.
Background
Each year during the anniversary
month of the publication of an
antidumping or countervailing duty
order, finding, or suspension of
investigation, an interested party, as
defined in section 771(9) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
may request, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213, that the Department of
Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) conduct
an administrative review of that
antidumping or countervailing duty
order, finding, or suspended
investigation.
All deadlines for the submission of
comments or actions by the Department
discussed below refer to the number of
calendar days from the applicable
starting date.
Respondent Selection
In the event the Department limits the
number of respondents for individual
examination for administrative reviews
initiated pursuant to requests made for
the orders identified below, except for
the review of the antidumping duty
order on Wooden Bedroom Furniture
from the People’s Republic of China
(‘‘PRC’’) (A–570–890), the Department
intends to select respondents based on
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) data for U.S. imports during the
period of review (‘‘POR’’). We intend to
E:\FR\FM\03JAN1.SGM
03JAN1
91
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 1 / Monday, January 3, 2011 / Notices
release the CBP data under
Administrative Protective Order
(‘‘APO’’) to all parties having an APO
within seven days of publication of the
initiation notice and to make our
decision regarding respondent selection
within 21 days of publication of the
initiation Federal Register notice.
Therefore, we encourage all parties
interested in commenting on respondent
selection to submit their APO
applications on the date of publication
of the initiation notice, or as soon
thereafter as possible. The Department
invites comments regarding the CBP
data and respondent selection within
five days of placement of the CBP data
on the record of the review.
If the Department limits the number
of respondents selected for individual
examination in the administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on wooden bedroom furniture from the
PRC, it intends to select respondents
based on volume data contained in
responses to quantity and value
questionnaires. Further, the Department
intends to limit the number of quantity
and value questionnaires issued in the
wooden bedroom furniture from the
PRC review based on CBP data for U.S.
imports classified under the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) headings
identified in the scope of the order.
Since the units used to measure import
quantities are not consistent for the
HTSUS headings identified in the scope
of the order on wooden bedroom
furniture from the PRC, the Department
will limit the number of quantity and
value questionnaires issued based on
the import values in CBP data as a proxy
for import quantities. Parties subject to
the review to which the Department
does not send a quantity and value
questionnaire may file a response to the
quantity and value questionnaire by the
applicable deadline if they desire to be
included in the pool of companies from
which the Department will select
mandatory respondents. Additionally,
exporters subject to the review to which
the Department does not send a quantity
and value questionnaire may file a
separate rate application or separate rate
certification, as appropriate, by the
applicable deadline without filing a
response to the quantity and value
questionnaire.
Opportunity to Request A Review: Not
later than the last day of January 2011,1
interested parties may request
administrative review of the following
orders, findings, or suspended
investigations, with anniversary dates in
January for the following periods:

In accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b), an interested party as
defined by section 771(9) of the Act may
request in writing that the Secretary
conduct an administrative review. For
both antidumping and countervailing
duty reviews, the interested party must
specify the individual producers or
exporters covered by an antidumping
finding or an antidumping or
countervailing duty order or suspension
agreement for which it is requesting a
review. In addition, a domestic
interested party or an interested party
described in section 771(9)(B) of the Act
must state why it desires the Secretary
to review those particular producers or
exporters.4 If the interested party
intends for the Secretary to review sales
of merchandise by an exporter (or a
producer if that producer also exports
merchandise from other suppliers)
which were produced in more than one
country of origin and each country of
origin is subject to a separate order, then
the interested party must state
specifically, on an order-by-order basis,
which exporter(s) the request is
intended to cover.
Please note that, for any party the
Department was unable to locate in
prior segments, the Department will not
accept a request for an administrative
review of that party absent new
information as to the party’s location.
Moreover, if the interested party who

interested party must provide an
explanation of the attempts it made to
locate the producer or exporter at the

As explained in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68
FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department
has clarified its practice with respect to
the collection of final antidumping
duties on imports of merchandise where
intermediate firms are involved. The
public should be aware of this
clarification in determining whether to
request an administrative review of
merchandise subject to antidumping
findings and orders. See also the Import
Administration Web site at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov.
Six copies of the request should be
submitted to the Assistant Secretary for
Import Administration, International
Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S.
Department of Commerce, 14th Street
and Constitution Avenue, NW.,
Washington, DC 20230. The Department
also asks parties to serve a copy of their
requests to the Office of Antidumping/
Countervailing Operations, Attention:
Sheila Forbes, in room 3508 of the main
Commerce Building. Further, in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.303(f)(3)(ii), a copy of each request
must be served on the petitioner and
each exporter or producer specified in
the request.
The Department will publish in the
Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation
of Administrative Review of
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation’’ for requests received by
the last day of January 2011. If the
Department does not receive, by the last
day of January 2011, a request for
review of entries covered by an order,
finding, or suspended investigation
listed in this notice and for the period
identified above, the Department will
instruct the CBP to assess antidumping
or countervailing duties on those entries
at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or
bond for) estimated antidumping or
countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect
the cash deposit previously ordered.
For the first administrative review of

Background
Each year during the anniversary month of the publication of an
antidumping or countervailing duty order, finding, or suspension of
investigation, an interested party, as defined in section 771(9) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), may request, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213, that the Department of Commerce (``the
Department'') conduct an administrative review of that antidumping or
countervailing duty order, finding, or suspended investigation.
All deadlines for the submission of comments or actions by the
Department discussed below refer to the number of calendar days from
the applicable starting date.
Respondent Selection
In the event the Department limits the number of respondents for
individual examination for administrative reviews initiated pursuant to
requests made for the orders identified below, except for the review of
the antidumping duty order on Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the
People's Republic of China (``PRC'') (A-570-890), the Department
intends to select respondents based on U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') data for U.S. imports during the period of review
(``POR''). We intend to
[[Page 91]]
release the CBP data under Administrative Protective Order (``APO'') to
all parties having an APO within seven days of publication of the
initiation notice and to make our decision regarding respondent
selection within 21 days of publication of the initiation Federal
Register notice. Therefore, we encourage all parties interested in
commenting on respondent selection to submit their APO applications on
the date of publication of the initiation notice, or as soon thereafter
as possible. The Department invites comments regarding the CBP data and
respondent selection within five days of placement of the CBP data on
the record of the review.
If the Department limits the number of respondents selected for
individual examination in the administrative review of the antidumping
duty order on wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC, it intends to
select respondents based on volume data contained in responses to
quantity and value questionnaires. Further, the Department intends to
limit the number of quantity and value questionnaires issued in the
wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC review based on CBP data for U.S.
imports classified under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (``HTSUS'') headings identified in the scope of the order. Since
the units used to measure import quantities are not consistent for the
HTSUS headings identified in the scope of the order on wooden bedroom
furniture from the PRC, the Department will limit the number of
quantity and value questionnaires issued based on the import values in
CBP data as a proxy for import quantities. Parties subject to the
review to which the Department does not send a quantity and value
questionnaire may file a response to the quantity and value
questionnaire by the applicable deadline if they desire to be included
in the pool of companies from which the Department will select
mandatory respondents. Additionally, exporters subject to the review to
which the Department does not send a quantity and value questionnaire
may file a separate rate application or separate rate certification, as
appropriate, by the applicable deadline without filing a response to
the quantity and value questionnaire.

of the following orders, findings, or suspended investigations, with

if that producer also exports merchandise from other suppliers) which
were produced in more than one country of origin and each country of
origin is subject to a separate order, then the interested party must
state specifically, on an order-by-order basis, which exporter(s) the
request is intended to cover.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ If the review request involves a non-market economy and the
parties subject to the review request do not qualify for separate
rates, all other exporters of subject merchandise from the non-
market economy country who do not have a separate rate will be
covered by the review as part of the single entity of which the
named firms are a part.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note that, for any party the Department was unable to locate
in prior segments, the Department will not accept a request for an
administrative review of that party absent new information as to the
party's location. Moreover, if the interested party who
[[Page 92]]
files a request for review is unable to locate the producer or exporter
for which it requested the review, the interested party must provide an
explanation of the attempts it made to locate the producer or exporter
at the same time it files its request for review, in order for the
Secretary to determine if the interested party's attempts were
reasonable, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.303(f)(3)(ii).
As explained in Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the
Department has clarified its practice with respect to the collection of
final antidumping duties on imports of merchandise where intermediate
firms are involved. The public should be aware of this clarification in
determining whether to request an administrative review of merchandise
subject to antidumping findings and orders. See also the Import
Administration Web site at https://ia.ita.doc.gov.
Six copies of the request should be submitted to the Assistant
Secretary for Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, Room 1870, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230. The Department also
asks parties to serve a copy of their requests to the Office of
Antidumping/Countervailing Operations, Attention: Sheila Forbes, in
room 3508 of the main Commerce Building. Further, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.303(f)(3)(ii), a copy of each request must be served on the
petitioner and each exporter or producer specified in the request.
The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of
``Initiation of Administrative Review of Antidumping or Countervailing
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation'' for requests received
by the last day of January 2011. If the Department does not receive, by
the last day of January 2011, a request for review of entries covered
by an order, finding, or suspended investigation listed in this notice
and for the period identified above, the Department will instruct the
CBP to assess antidumping or countervailing duties on those entries at
a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or bond for) estimated antidumping
or countervailing duties required on those entries at the time of
entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption and to continue to
collect the cash deposit previously ordered.
For the first administrative review of any order, there will be no
assessment of antidumping or countervailing duties on entries of
subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption during the relevant provisional-measures ``gap'' period, of
the order, if such a gap period is applicable to the POR.
This notice is not required by statute but is published as a
service to the international trading community.
Dated: December 20, 2010.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
