Background
On October 15, 2008, the Department
published the final results of its 2006–
2007 administrative review of circular
welded carbon steel pipes and tubes
from Thailand. See Final Results. In the
Final Results, the Department granted
an upward adjustment to export price
(EP) in accordance with section
772(c)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), which directs the
Department to increase EP by ‘‘the
amount of any import duties imposed
by the country of exportation which
have been rebated, or which have not
been collected, by reason of the
exportation of the subject merchandise
to the United States.’’ We calculated the
upward adjustment to EP for exempted
import duties on material inputs using
Saha Thai’s actual yield loss factor
rather than the yield loss factor set by
the Government of Thailand (GOT). See
Final Results and accompanying Issues
and Decision Memorandum at Comment
4. We also adjusted the cost of
production and the constructed value to
include an amount equal to the value of
the import duties exempted on material
inputs. Saha Thai and the Domestic
Interested Parties 1 challenged the
Department’s Final Results.
In Saha Thai Steel Pipe (Public)
Company v. United States, Consol. Ct.
08–00380, Slip Op. 09–116 (October 15,
2009), the CIT affirmed the Final Results
on all but one issue. The CIT directed
the Department to recalculate Saha
Thai’s antidumping margin using the
GOT-determined yield loss factor to
calculate the adjustment to EP for
exempted import duties. On December
11, 2009, the Department issued its final
results of redetermination pursuant to
the CIT’s October 15, 2009 ruling. See
the Results of Redetermination Pursuant
to Remand (found at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov/remands/)
(Remand). The CIT issued its final
decision on January 4, 2010 affirming
the Remand. See Saha Thai CIT
Decision. Consistent with the CAFC
decision in Timken Co. v. United States,
893 F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990), the
Department published, in the Federal
Register, a notice of a court decision
that is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with the
Department’s final results. See Circular
Welded Carbon Steel Pipes and Tubes
From Thailand: Court Decision Not in
Harmony with Final Results of
Administrative Review, 75 FR 2487
(January 15, 2010).
On February 22, 2010, Saha Thai
appealed the Saha Thai CIT Decision,
arguing that an increase in the cost of
1 The Domestic Interested Parties are Allied Tube
and Conduit Corp. and Wheatland Tube Company.
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
production to account for ‘‘fictitious’’
costs was not warranted. Saha Thai also
argued that the inclusion of these
exempted import duties in the cost of
production constitutes double counting.
On March 1, 2010, the Domestic
Interested Parties appealed the Saha
Thai CIT Decision challenging the
Department’s two-prong test that must
be met before the Department makes an
upward adjustment to EP pursuant to
section 772(c)(B)(1) of the Act. Under
the two-prong test, the exporter/
producer must show that: (i) The import
duty and rebate are directly linked to
one another, and (ii) sufficient imports
are made to account for the finished
merchandise exported to the United
States. The Domestic Interested Parties
argued that the Department can only
increase EP when import duties are
‘‘imposed by the country of
exportation,’’ and, in this case, the
duties were exempted rather than
collected and drawn back or rebated. In
its Saha Thai CAFC Decision, the CAFC
rejected Saha Thai’s and the Domestic
Interested Parties’ arguments and
upheld the Saha Thai CIT Decision,
thus sustaining the Remand in full. See
Saha Thai CAFC Decision. No party
appealed the CAFC’s decision. Because
there is now a final and conclusive
decision, we are issuing these amended
final results of review to reflect the
results of the Remand.
Amended Final Results of the Review
We are amending the final results of
the 2006–2007 administrative review of
circular welded carbon steel pipes and
tubes from Thailand in accordance with
the Remand. The revised weightedaverage margin for Saha Thai is 4.21
percent for the period March 1, 2006,
through February 28, 2007.
Assessment of Duties
The Department has determined, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries covered by
these amended final results. The
Department intends to issue liquidation
instructions to CBP 15 days after
publication of these amended final
results in the Federal Register. The cash
deposit rate will remain the companyspecific rate established in the most
recently completed administrative
review of Saha Thai. See Circular

SUMMARY: On January 13, 2011, the
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) published the
preliminary results of the administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain cased pencils from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’),
covering the period December 1, 2008,
through November 30, 2009. We gave
interested parties an opportunity to
comment on the preliminary results,
however we did not receive any
comments. As a result, we have not
made changes to our margin
calculations for the final results of this
review. The final dumping margins for
this review are listed in the ‘‘Final
Results of the Review’’ section below.
DATES: Effective Date: May 13, 2011.

Background
Following the preliminary results of
review (See Certain Cased Pencils From
the People’s Republic of China:
Preliminary Results and Partial
Rescission of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 76 FR 2337
(January 13, 2011) (‘‘Preliminary
Results’’)), the Department issued an
additional supplemental questionnaire
to mandatory respondent Shandong
Rongxin Import and Export Co., Ltd.
(‘‘Rongxin’’) on January 10, 2011, and
received a response on January 28, 2011.
The Department also issued an
E:\FR\FM\13MYN1.SGM
13MYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 93 / Friday, May 13, 2011 / Notices
additional supplemental questionnaire
to Beijing Fila Dixon Stationery
Company Ltd. (‘‘Beijing Dixon’’), the
other mandatory respondent, on January
31, 2011. Beijing Dixon responded on
February 16, 2011.
We did not receive case briefs from
any party, and none of the parties
requested a hearing.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by the order are
shipments of certain cased pencils of
any shape or dimension (except as
described below) which are writing and/
or drawing instruments that feature
cores of graphite or other materials,
encased in wood and/or man-made
materials, whether or not decorated and
whether or not tipped (e.g., with erasers,
etc.) in any fashion, and either
sharpened or unsharpened. The pencils
subject to the order are currently
classifiable under subheading
9609.10.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). Specifically excluded from
the scope of the order are mechanical
pencils, cosmetic pencils, pens, noncased crayons (wax), pastels, charcoals,
chalks, and pencils produced under
U.S. patent number 6,217,242, from
paper infused with scents by the means
covered in the above-referenced patent,
thereby having odors distinct from those
that may emanate from pencils lacking
the scent infusion. Also excluded from
the scope of the order are pencils with
all of the following physical
characteristics: (1) Length: 13.5 or more
inches; (2) sheath diameter: Not less
than one-and-one-quarter inches at any
point (before sharpening); and (3) core
length: not more than 15 percent of the
length of the pencil.
In addition, pencils with all of the
following physical characteristics are
excluded from the scope of the order:
Novelty jumbo pencils that are
octagonal in shape, approximately ten
inches long, one inch in diameter before
sharpening, and three-and-one-eighth
inches in circumference, composed of
turned wood encasing one-and-one-half
inches of sharpened lead on one end
and a rubber eraser on the other end.
Although the HTSUS subheading is
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
scope of the order is dispositive.
Final Results of the Review
We determine that the following
margins exist for the period December 1,
2008, through November 30, 2009:

Assessment Rates
The Department has determined, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries. The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of these final results
of review.
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), we calculated exporter/
importer-specific (or customer-specific)
assessment rates for merchandise
subject to this review. Beijing Dixon
reported entered values for its U.S.
sales. Therefore, we calculated importer
(or customer) specific ad valorem rates
by aggregating the dumping margins
calculated for all U.S. sales to each
importer (or customer), and dividing
this amount by the entered value of the
sales to each importer (or customer).
Rongxin did not report entered values
for its U.S. sales. Therefore, we
calculated a per-unit assessment rate for
each importer (or customer) by dividing
the total dumping margins for reviewed
sales to that party by the total sales
quantity associated with those
transactions. For duty-assessment rates
calculated on this basis, we will direct
CBP to assess the resulting per-unit rate
against the entered quantity of the
subject merchandise.
To determine whether the duty
assessment rates were de minimis, in
accordance with the requirement set
forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:22 May 12, 2011
Jkt 223001
Department calculated importer-specific
ad valorem ratios based on the entered
value or the estimated entered value,
when entered value was not reported.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we
will instruct CBP to liquidate without
regard to antidumping duties any
entries for which the assessment rate is
de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent).
We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
entries of subject merchandise exported
by the PRC-wide entity at the estimated
antidumping duty rate in effect at the
time of entry. Because the PRC-wide
entity was not reviewed during this
period of review, the PRC-wide rate
remains 114.90 percent, the rate
established in the administrative review
for the most recent period.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash-deposit
requirements will apply to all
shipments of certain cased pencils from
the PRC entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication date of the final results
of this administrative review, as
provided by section 751(a)(1) of the Act:
(1) Because the cash deposit rates for
Rongxin and Beijing Dixon are de
minimis, i.e., the rate is less than 0.5
percent, no cash deposits will be
required for Rongxin and Beijing Dixon;
(2) for any previously reviewed or
investigated PRC or non-PRC exporter,
not covered in this review, with a
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will
be the company-specific rate established

in the most recent segment of this
proceeding; (3) for all other PRC
exporters, the cash deposit rate will be
the PRC-wide rate established in the
final results of the administrative review
for the most recent period, which is
114.90 percent; and (4) the cash-deposit
rate for any non-PRC exporter of subject
merchandise from the PRC will be the
rate applicable to the PRC exporter that
supplied that exporter. These deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in the Secretary’s presumption
that reimbursement of antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to parties subject to the
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
of their responsibility concerning the
return or destruction of proprietary
information disclosed under the APO in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305.
Timely written notification of the return
or destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply

with respect to its exports. On December
29, 2009, Shandong Rongxin Import &
Export, Co., Ltd. (‘‘Rongxin’’), a foreign
producer and exporter, timely filed a
request for administrative review of the
order with respect to its exports. Based
on these requests, on January 28, 2011,
the Department initiated an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on pencils from
the PRC. See Initiation of Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 76 FR 5137 (January 28, 2011).
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(l), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the party that requested a review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. On
March 15, 2011, Rongxin withdrew its
request for administrative review. On
April 6, 2011, Beijing Dixon withdrew
its request for administrative review.
Rongxin’s and Beijing Dixon’s
withdrawal requests are within the 90day period, and no other party
requested an administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on pencils
from the PRC. Therefore, the
Department hereby rescinds the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on pencils from
the PRC for the period December 1,
2009, through November 30, 2010.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)

SUMMARY: On January 13, 2011, the Department of Commerce
(``Department'') published the preliminary results of the
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain cased
pencils from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''), covering the
period December 1, 2008, through November 30, 2009. We gave interested
parties an opportunity to comment on the preliminary results, however
we did not receive any comments. As a result, we have not made changes
to our margin calculations for the final results of this review. The
final dumping margins for this review are listed in the ``Final Results
of the Review'' section below.
DATES: Effective Date: May 13, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Following the preliminary results of review (See Certain Cased
Pencils From the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results and
Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR
2337 (January 13, 2011) (``Preliminary Results'')), the Department
issued an additional supplemental questionnaire to mandatory respondent
Shandong Rongxin Import and Export Co., Ltd. (``Rongxin'') on January
10, 2011, and received a response on January 28, 2011. The Department
also issued an
[[Page 27989]]
additional supplemental questionnaire to Beijing Fila Dixon Stationery
Company Ltd. (``Beijing Dixon''), the other mandatory respondent, on
January 31, 2011. Beijing Dixon responded on February 16, 2011.
We did not receive case briefs from any party, and none of the
parties requested a hearing.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by the order are shipments of certain cased pencils
of any shape or dimension (except as described below) which are writing
and/or drawing instruments that feature cores of graphite or other
materials, encased in wood and/or man-made materials, whether or not
decorated and whether or not tipped (e.g., with erasers, etc.) in any
fashion, and either sharpened or unsharpened. The pencils subject to
the order are currently classifiable under subheading 9609.10.00 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'').
Specifically excluded from the scope of the order are mechanical
pencils, cosmetic pencils, pens, non-cased crayons (wax), pastels,
charcoals, chalks, and pencils produced under U.S. patent number
6,217,242, from paper infused with scents by the means covered in the
above-referenced patent, thereby having odors distinct from those that
may emanate from pencils lacking the scent infusion. Also excluded from
the scope of the order are pencils with all of the following physical
characteristics: (1) Length: 13.5 or more inches; (2) sheath diameter:
Not less than one-and-one-quarter inches at any point (before
sharpening); and (3) core length: not more than 15 percent of the
length of the pencil.
In addition, pencils with all of the following physical
characteristics are excluded from the scope of the order: Novelty jumbo
pencils that are octagonal in shape, approximately ten inches long, one
inch in diameter before sharpening, and three-and-one-eighth inches in
circumference, composed of turned wood encasing one-and-one-half inches
of sharpened lead on one end and a rubber eraser on the other end.
Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and
customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the order is
dispositive.
Final Results of the Review
We determine that the following margins exist for the period
December 1, 2008, through November 30, 2009:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margin
Company (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beijing Fila Dixon Stationery Company Ltd............. 0.00
Shandong Rongxin Import and Export Co., Ltd........... 0.17
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
The Department has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. The Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these
final results of review.
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated exporter/
importer-specific (or customer-specific) assessment rates for
merchandise subject to this review. Beijing Dixon reported entered
values for its U.S. sales. Therefore, we calculated importer (or
customer) specific ad valorem rates by aggregating the dumping margins
calculated for all U.S. sales to each importer (or customer), and
dividing this amount by the entered value of the sales to each importer
(or customer). Rongxin did not report entered values for its U.S.
sales. Therefore, we calculated a per-unit assessment rate for each
importer (or customer) by dividing the total dumping margins for
reviewed sales to that party by the total sales quantity associated
with those transactions. For duty-assessment rates calculated on this
basis, we will direct CBP to assess the resulting per-unit rate against
the entered quantity of the subject merchandise.
To determine whether the duty assessment rates were de minimis, in
accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), the
Department calculated importer-specific ad valorem ratios based on the
entered value or the estimated entered value, when entered value was
not reported. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to
liquidate without regard to antidumping duties any entries for which
the assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent).
We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries of subject
merchandise exported by the PRC-wide entity at the estimated
antidumping duty rate in effect at the time of entry. Because the PRC-
wide entity was not reviewed during this period of review, the PRC-wide
rate remains 114.90 percent, the rate established in the administrative
review for the most recent period.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash-deposit requirements will apply to all shipments
of certain cased pencils from the PRC entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) Because the cash deposit rates for Rongxin
and Beijing Dixon are de minimis, i.e., the rate is less than 0.5
percent, no cash deposits will be required for Rongxin and Beijing
Dixon; (2) for any previously reviewed or investigated PRC or non-PRC
exporter, not covered in this review, with a separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be the company-specific rate established in the most
recent segment of this proceeding; (3) for all other PRC exporters, the
cash deposit rate will be the PRC-wide rate established in the final
results of the administrative review for the most recent period, which
is 114.90 percent; and (4) the cash-deposit rate for any non-PRC
exporter of subject merchandise from the PRC will be the rate
applicable to the PRC exporter that supplied that exporter. These
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to
the administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely
written notification of the return or destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
comply
[[Page 27990]]
with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable
violation.
This notice of final results is issued and published in accordance
with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: May 9, 2011.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
