Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 91 / Thursday, May 10, 2012 / Notices
on all entries of subject merchandise
from the PRC. We will also instruct CBP
to require cash deposits equal to the
estimated amount by which the normal
value exceeds the U.S. price as
indicated in the chart below. These
instructions suspending liquidation will
remain in effect until further notice.
Accordingly, effective on the date of
publication of the ITC’s final affirmative
injury determination, CBP will require,
at the same time as importers would
normally deposit estimated duties on
this subject merchandise, a cash deposit
equal to the estimated weighted-average
antidumping duty margins as discussed
below.8 The ‘‘PRC-wide’’ rate applies to
all exporters of subject merchandise not
specifically listed.
Provisional Measures
Section 733(d) of the Act states that
instructions issued pursuant to an
affirmative preliminary determination
may not remain in effect for more than
four months except where exporters
representing a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise
request the Department to extend that
four-month period to no more than six
months. At the request of exporters that
account for a significant proportion of
exports of stilbenic OBAs from the PRC,
we extended the four-month period to
no more than six months.9 In the
underlying investigation, the
Department published the Preliminary
Determination on November 3, 2011.10
Therefore, the six-month period
beginning on the date of the publication
of the Preliminary Determination ended
on May 1, 2012. Furthermore, section
737(b) of the Act states that definitive
duties are to begin on the date of
publication of the ITC’s final injury
determination.
Therefore, in accordance with section
733(d) of the Act and our practice, we
will instruct CBP to terminate the
suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate, without regard to
antidumping duties, unliquidated
entries of stilbenic OBAs from the PRC
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption after May 1, 2012, the
date provisional measures expired, and
through the day preceding the date of
publication of the ITC’s final injury
determination in the Federal Register
Suspension of liquidation will resume
on and after the date of publication of
the ITC’s final injury determination in
the Federal Register
The weighted-average dumping
margins are as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 3, 2011, the Department
of Commerce (the Department)
published in the Federal Register the
initiation of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on lightwalled rectangular pipe and tube from
Mexico, covering the period of August
1, 2010, to July 31, 2011. See Initiation
of Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Administrative Reviews and
Requests for Revocations in Part, 76 FR
61076 (October 3, 2011). The current
deadline for the preliminary results of
this review is May 2, 2012.
Statutory Time Limits
In antidumping duty administrative
reviews, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
requires the Department to complete the
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested. However,
if it is not practicable to complete the

review within this time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend the 245-day time
period for the preliminary results up to
365 days after the last day of the
anniversary month.
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results of Review
The Department finds it is not
practicable to complete the preliminary
results of these reviews within the
original time frame because the
Department requires additional time to
gather additional information and
analyze the information submitted on
the record by both mandatory
respondents, Regiomontana de Perfiles
S.A. de C.V. (Regiopytsa) and
Maquilacero S.A. de C.V. (Maquilacero).
Therefore, the Department is fully
extending the time limit for completion
of the preliminary results of this
administrative review until no later than
August 30, 2012, which is 365 days
from the last day of the anniversary
month of this order. We intend to issue
the final results no later than 120 days
after publication of the preliminary
results notice.
This extension is issued and
published in accordance with sections
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the Act.

Floor-Standing, Metal-Top Ironing
Tables and Certain Parts Thereof From
the People’s Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Commerce.
SUMMARY: In response to a request from
Home Products International (the
Petitioner in this proceeding), the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on floorstanding, metal-top ironing tables and
certain parts thereof (ironing tables)
from the People’s Republic of China
(PRC). The period of review (POR) is
August 1, 2010, through July 31, 2011.
The review covers one respondent
Foshan Shunde Yongjian Housewares &
Hardware Co., Ltd. (Foshan Shunde). As
discussed below, we have preliminarily
determined that Foshan Shunde is part
of the PRC-wide entity and that the
entity has failed to cooperate to the best
of its ability. We are, therefore, applying
adverse facts available (AFA) to the
PRC-wide entity, which includes
Foshan Shunde. If these preliminary
results are adopted in our final results,
we will instruct the U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on entries of the
subject merchandise during the POR.

antidumping duty order regarding
ironing tables from the PRC.1
On August 1, 2011, the Department
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on, inter alia,
ironing tables from the PRC.2 On August
31, 2011, Home Products International
and Foshan Shunde requested, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b)(1),
an administrative review of this order
for Foshan Shunde.
On October 3, 2011, the Department
initiated an administrative review of
Foshan Shunde.3
The Department issued its
antidumping questionnaire to Foshan
Shunde on October 6, 2011. On October
27, 2011, counsel for Foshan Shunde
withdrew Foshan Shunde’s request for
review. Additionally, the law firm that
had represented Foshan Shunde
indicated it ‘‘has not been authorized to
enter an appearance or to otherwise
participate in this review’’ on Foshan
Shunde’s behalf.4 Because, the review
request filed by Home Products
International was not withdrawn, the
Department continued the
administrative review of Foshan
Shunde. On November 4, 2011, the
Department sent Foshan Shunde a
letter, which was received, requesting
confirmation that Foshan Shunde
received our antidumping questionnaire
through its counsel at the time.
However, Foshan Shunde filed no
response to either our October 6, 2011,
questionnaire or our November 4, 2011,
letter.
Scope of the Order
For purposes of this order, the
product covered consists of floorstanding, metal-top ironing tables,
assembled or unassembled, complete or
incomplete, and certain parts thereof.
The subject tables are designed and
used principally for the hand ironing or
pressing of garments or other articles of
fabric. The subject tables have fullheight leg assemblies that support the
ironing surface at an appropriate (often
adjustable) height above the floor. The
subject tables are produced in a variety

of leg finishes, such as painted, plated,
or matte, and they are available with
various features, including iron rests,
linen racks, and others. The subject
ironing tables may be sold with or
without a pad and/or cover. All types
and configurations of floor-standing,
metal-top ironing tables are covered by
this review.
Furthermore, this order specifically
covers imports of ironing tables,
assembled or unassembled, complete or
incomplete, and certain parts thereof.
For purposes of this order, the term
‘‘unassembled’’ ironing table means a
product requiring the attachment of the
leg assembly to the top or the
attachment of an included feature such
as an iron rest or linen rack. The term
‘‘complete’’ ironing table means product
sold as a ready-to-use ensemble
consisting of the metal-top table and a
pad and cover, with or without
additional features, e.g., iron rest or
linen rack. The term ‘‘incomplete’’
ironing table means product shipped or
sold as a ‘‘bare board’’—i.e., a metal-top
table only, without the pad and cover—
with or without additional features, e.g.,
iron rest or linen rack. The major parts
or components of ironing tables that are
intended to be covered by this order
under the term ‘‘certain parts thereof’’
consist of the metal top component
(with or without assembled supports
and slides) and/or the leg components,
whether or not attached together as a leg
assembly. The order covers separately
shipped metal top components and leg
components, without regard to whether
the respective quantities would yield an
exact quantity of assembled ironing
tables.
Ironing tables without legs (such as
models that mount on walls or over
doors) are not floor-standing and are
specifically excluded. Additionally,
tabletop or countertop models with
short legs that do not exceed 12 inches
in length (and which may or may not
collapse or retract) are specifically
excluded.
The subject ironing tables are
currently classifiable under Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTSUS) subheading 9403.20.0011. The
subject metal top and leg components
are classified under HTSUS subheading
9403.90.8041. Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and for Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) purposes, the
Department’s written description of the
scope remains dispositive.
Facts Otherwise Available
Section 776(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), mandates
that the Department use facts otherwise
