Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 148 / Wednesday, August 1, 2012 / Notices entered the United States for consumption and that liquidation of such entries had been properly suspended for antidumping duties.3 The Department also examined whether the CBP data confirm that such entries were made during the NSR POR. The Department has identified some inconsistencies between the information provided by Haining Automann and the CBP data currently on the record. After the initiation of this NSR, the Department intends to place additional CBP data on the record, and, if necessary, request additional information from Haining Automann. Due to the proprietary nature of this information, please refer to the Memorandum to the File from John Ditore, ‘‘Initiation of AD New Shipper Review: Tapered Roller Bearings and Parts Thereof from the People’s Republic of China (A–570–601)’’ dated concurrently with this notice (‘‘Initiation Checklist’’). Period of Review In accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(g)(1)(i)(A), the POR for a NSR initiated in the month immediately following the anniversary month will be the twelve month period immediately preceding the anniversary month. Therefore, the POR for this NSR is June 1, 2011, through May 31, 2012. Based on the information provided by Haining Automann, the sales and entries into the United States of subject merchandise produced and exported by Haining Automann occurred during this twelve month POR. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Initiation of New Shipper Review Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b), the Department finds that the request submitted by Haining Automann meets the threshold requirements for initiation of a NSR for the shipment of tapered roller bearings from the PRC produced and exported by Haining Automann.4 If the information supplied by Haining Automann cannot be verified using CBP import data, or is otherwise found to be incorrect or insufficient during the course of this proceeding, the Department may rescind the review or apply adverse facts available pursuant to section 776 of the Act, depending upon the facts on record. The Department intends to issue the preliminary results of this NSR no later than 180 days from the date of initiation, and the final results no later 3 See July 26, 2012 memorandum to the file regarding CBP data. 4 See Initiation Checklist. VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:53 Jul 31, 2012 Jkt 226001 than 90 days from the issuance of the preliminary results.5 It is the Department’s usual practice, in cases involving non-market economies, to require that a company seeking to establish eligibility for an antidumping duty rate separate from the country-wide rate provide evidence of de jure and de facto absence of government control over the company’s export activities. Accordingly, the Department will issue a questionnaire to Haining Automann which will include a section requesting information with regard to Haining Automann’s export activities for separate rates purposes. The review will proceed if the response provides sufficient indication that Haining Automann is not subject to either de jure or de facto government control with respect to its export of subject merchandise. The Department will instruct CBP to allow, at the option of the importer, the posting, until the completion of the review, of a bond or security in lieu of a cash deposit for each entry of the subject merchandise from Haining Automann in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(e). Because Haining Automann certified that it produced and exported the subject merchandise, the Department will apply the bonding privilege to Haining Automann only for subject merchandise which Haining Automann produced and exported. To assist in its analysis of the bona fides of Haining Automann’s sales, upon initiation of this new shipper review, the Department will require Haining Automann to submit on an ongoing basis complete transaction information concerning any sales of subject merchandise to the United States that were made subsequent to the POR. Interested parties requiring access to proprietary information in this NSR should submit applications for disclosure under administrative protective order in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and 19 CFR 351.306. This initiation and notice are in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i). Dated: July 27, 2012.
