SUMMARY: On December 7, 2012, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
results of administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on
polyethylene terephthalate film (PET
Film) from the United Arab Emirates.1
This review covers two producers/
exporters of subject merchandise: JBF
RAK LLC (JBF) and FLEX Middle East
FZE (FLEX). Based on our analysis of
the comments received, we have made
changes to the preliminary results
which are discussed below. The final
weighted-average dumping margins are
listed below in the section titled ‘‘Final
Results of Review.’’

Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
all gauges of raw, pre-treated, or primed
polyethylene terephthalate film (PET
Film), whether extruded or co-extruded.
Excluded are metallized films and other
finished films that have had at least one
of their surfaces modified by the
application of a performance-enhancing
resinous or inorganic layer more than
0.00001 inches thick. Also excluded is
roller transport cleaning film which has
at least one of its surfaces modified by
application of 0.5 micrometers of SBR
latex. Tracing and drafting film is also
excluded. PET Film is classifiable under
subheading 3920.62.00.90 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). While HTSUS
subheadings are provided for

Memorandum are identical in content.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of the
comments received, we have made
adjustments to our margin calculations
for JBF and FLEX. Specifically, in
response to Petitioners’ targeted
dumping allegation and consistent with
the Post-Preliminary Analysis, we have
adopted the alternative average-totransaction methodology for JBF.4
Moreover, in response to comments by
Petitioners, we have made changes to
the SAS programming to correct certain
clerical errors in FLEX’s margin
calculation.
Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, we
determine that the following weightedaverage dumping margins exist for the
period November 1, 2010, through

Disclosure
We will disclose to interested parties
the calculations performed in
connection with these final results
within five days of the publication of
this notice, consistent with 19 CFR
351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review.5 The
Department intends to issue appropriate
assessment instructions directly to CBP
15 days after the date of publication of
these final results of review.
For assessment purposes, where the
respondent reported the entered value
for its sales, we calculated importerspecific (or customer-specific) ad
valorem assessment rates based on the
ratio of the total amount of the dumping
duties calculated for the examined sales
to the total entered value of those same
sales. See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
However, where the respondent did not
report the entered value for its sales, we
have calculated importer-specific (or
customer-specific) per-unit assessment
rates by aggregating the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for the
examined sales and dividing this
amount by the total quantity of those
sales. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review if any
importer-specific assessment rate
calculated in the final results of this
review is above de minimis (i.e., at or
above 0.50 percent). 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.
The Department clarified its
‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on
May 6, 2003.6 This clarification applies
to entries of subject merchandise during
the period of review produced by
companies under review in these final
results for which the reviewed
companies did not know their
merchandise was destined for the
United States. In such instances, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate non-reviewed
entries at the all-others rate of 4.05

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of the
final results of this administrative
review for all shipments of subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the publication date of these final
results, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act): (1) For the
companies covered by this review, the
cash deposit rate will be the rate listed
above in the section ‘‘Final Results of
Review’’; (2) for merchandise exported
by producers or exporters not covered in
this review but covered in a previous
segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published in the
most recent final results in which that
producer or exporter participated; (3) if
the exporter is not a firm covered in this
review or in any previous segment of
this proceeding, but the producer is, the
cash deposit rate will be that established
for the producer of the merchandise in
these final results of review or in the
most recent final results in which that
producer participated; and (4) if neither
the exporter nor the producer is a firm
covered in this review or in any
previous segment of this proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will be 4.05 percent,
the all-others rate established in the less
than fair value investigation.8 These
cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice is the only 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(a)(3). Timely
written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials, or
conversion to judicial protective order,
is hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.

Notification to Importers
This notice also 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
Department’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and in the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
final results and this notice in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act.

Although the HTSUS item numbers
above are provided for convenience and
customs purposes, the written
descriptions of the scope of the order
remain dispositive.
The size or precision grade of a
bearing does not influence whether the
bearing is covered by one of the order.
The order covers all the subject bearings
and parts thereof (inner race, outer race,
cage, rollers, balls, seals, shields, etc.)
outlined above with certain limitations.
With regard to finished parts, all such
parts are included in the scope of the
order. For unfinished parts, such parts
are included if they have been heattreated or if heat treatment is not
required to be performed on the part.
Thus, the only unfinished parts that are
not covered by the order are those that
will be subject to heat treatment after
importation. The ultimate application of
a bearing also does not influence
whether the bearing is covered by the
order. Bearings designed for highly
specialized applications are not
excluded. Any of the subject bearings,
regardless of whether they may
ultimately be utilized in aircraft,
automobiles, or other equipment, are
within the scope of the order.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
We have not revised our calculations
since our publication of the Preliminary
Results. Thus, the weighted-average
dumping margins for the companies
under review for our final results
remain unchanged.
Final Results of the Review
As a result of the administrative
review, we determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margins
exist for the respondents for the period

with the Post-Preliminary Analysis, we have adopted the alternative
average-to-transaction methodology for JBF.\4\ Moreover, in response to
comments by Petitioners, we have made changes to the SAS programming to
correct certain clerical errors in FLEX's margin calculation.

Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, we determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period November 1, 2010,
through October 31, 2011:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manufacturer/exporter Weighted average margin
------------------------------------------------------------------------
JBF RAK LLC............................... 9.80 percent ad valorem.
FLEX Middle East FZE...................... 0.00 percent ad valorem
(i.e., de minimis.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
We will disclose to interested parties the calculations performed
in connection with these final results within five days of the
publication of this notice, consistent with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of
this review.\5\ The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of
these final results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ The Department applied the assessment rate calculation
method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the
Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain
Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February
14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For assessment purposes, where the respondent reported the entered
value for its sales, we calculated importer-specific (or customer-
specific) ad valorem assessment rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of the dumping duties calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of those same sales. See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
However, where the respondent did not report the entered value for its
sales, we have calculated importer-specific (or customer-specific) per-
unit assessment rates by aggregating the total amount of antidumping
duties calculated for the examined sales and dividing this amount by
the total quantity of those sales. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review if
any importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final results
of this review is above de minimis (i.e., at or above 0.50 percent).
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.
The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on
May 6, 2003.\6\ This clarification applies to entries of subject
merchandise during the period of review produced by companies under
review in these final results for which the reviewed companies did not
know their merchandise was destined for the United States. In such
instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate non-reviewed entries at
the all-others rate of 4.05 percent from the investigation if there is
no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the
transaction.\7\

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon

which that producer or exporter participated; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review or in any previous segment of this
proceeding, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be that

of review or in the most recent final results in which that producer
participated; and (4) if neither the exporter nor the producer is a

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order
This notice is the only 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(a)(3). Timely
written notification of the return or destruction of APO materials, or
conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure
to comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
[[Page 29702]]
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and in the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these final results and this notice
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: May 13, 2013.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
