(Football Helmets), Rantoul, Illinois Bell Sports, Inc. (Bell Sports) submitted a notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its facility in Rantoul, Illinois within FTZ Subzone 114F. The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on November 7, 2014. Bell Sports already has authority to produce certain sports equipment within Subzone 114F. The current request would add finished products and foreign status materials/components to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority would be limited to the specific foreignstatus materials/components and specific finished products described in the submitted notification (as described below) and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board. Production under FTZ procedures could exempt Bell Sports from customs duty payments on the foreign status materials/components used in export production. On its domestic sales, Bell Sports would be able to choose the duty rates during customs entry procedures that apply to collectible football helmets (duty rate 0%) for the foreign status materials/components noted below and in the existing scope of authority. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign status production equipment. PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 The materials/components sourced from abroad include: Decals; puff decals; mini- bows; clip-on ponytails; iron screws; 6mm screws; snap screws; t-nuts; and, hang tags (duty rate ranges from 0 to 7%). The request indicates that inputs classified under HTSUS Chapter 6307.90 will be admitted to the zone in privileged foreign status (19 CFR 146.41), thereby precluding inverted tariff benefits on such items. Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions shall be addressed to the Board’s Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period for their receipt is December 29, 2014.

The period of review (POR) is March 1, 2013, through February 28, 2014. The review covers one producer/exporter of the subject merchandise, Gerdau Aceros Especiales Europa, S.L. (Gerdau).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to the order is SSB. The term SSB with respect to the order means articles of stainless steel in straight lengths that have been either hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn, cold-rolled or otherwise cold-finished, or ground, having a uniform solid cross section along their whole length in the shape of circles, segments of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles, hexagons, octagons or other convex polygons. SSB includes coldfinished SSBs that are turned or ground in straight lengths, whether produced from hot-rolled bar or from straightened and cut rod or wire, and reinforcing bars that have indentations, ribs, grooves, or other deformations produced during the rolling process. Except as specified above, the term does not include stainless steel semi-finished products, cut-length flat-rolled products (i.e., cutlength rolled products which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness have a width measuring at least 10 times the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in thickness having a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice the thickness), wire (i.e., cold-formed products in coils, of any uniform solid cross section along their whole length, which do not conform to the definition of flat-rolled products), and angles, shapes and sections. The SSB subject to the order is currently classifiable under subheadings 7222.10.00, 7222.11.00, 7222.19.00, 7222.20.00, 7222.30.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).

Accordingly, based on record evidence, we preliminarily determine that Gerdau had no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Further, consistent with our practice, we find that it is not appropriate to rescind the review with respect to Gerdau, but rather to complete the review and issue appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final results of this review.6 Public Comment Interested parties may submit cases briefs no later than 30 days after the date of publication of this notice.7 Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not later than five days after the date for filing case briefs.8 Parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this proceeding are encouraged to submit with each argument: (1) A statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the argument; and (3) a table of authorities.9 Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to request a hearing, or to participate if one is requested, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce.

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the order is SSB. The term SSB with 
respect to the order means articles of stainless steel in straight 
lengths that have been either hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn, 
cold-rolled or otherwise cold-finished, or ground, having a uniform 
solid cross section along their whole length in the shape of circles, 
segments of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles, 
hexagons, octagons or other convex polygons. SSB includes cold-finished 
SSBs that are turned or ground in straight lengths, whether produced 
from hot-rolled bar or from straightened and cut rod or wire, and 
reinforcing bars that have indentations, ribs, grooves, or other 
deformations produced during the rolling process. Except as specified 
above, the term does not include stainless steel semi-finished 
products, cut-length flat-rolled products (i.e., cut-length rolled 
products which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness have a width measuring 
at least 10 times the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in thickness 
having a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice the 
thickness), wire (i.e., cold-formed products in coils, of any uniform 
solid cross section along their whole length, which do not conform to 
the definition of flat-rolled products), and angles, shapes and 
sections.
    The SSB subject to the order is currently classifiable under 
subheadings 7222.10.00, 7222.11.00, 7222.19.00, 7222.20.00, 7222.30.00 
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).

customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the order is 
dispositive.\1\

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    We published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of this 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on SSB from Spain 
covering one company, Gerdau.\2\ On May 1, 2014, we requested the U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data for all entries of SSB by 
Gerdau during the POR and found that there were no entries.\3\ We 
received a timely submission from Gerdau reporting that it did not have 
sales, shipments, or entries of the subject merchandise during the 
POR.\4\ We transmitted a ``No-Shipment Inquiry'' to CBP regarding this 
company.\5\ Pursuant to this inquiry, we received no notification from 
CBP of entries of subject merchandise from Gerdau. Accordingly, based 
on record evidence, we preliminarily determine that Gerdau had no 
shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Further, consistent 
with our practice, we find that it is not appropriate to rescind the 
review with respect to Gerdau, but rather to complete the review and 
issue appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final results of 
this review.\6\

Assessment Rates

    For the final results, if we continue to find that Gerdau had no 
shipments of subject merchandise, following issuance of the final 
results of review, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR 
produced by Gerdau for which this company did not know that the 
merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to 
liquidate un-reviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no 
rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\12\

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a preliminary 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 POR. 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.
    We are issuing and publishing this administrative review and notice 
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: November 7, 2014.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
