Requestor: U.S. Metals, Inc. (USM);
USM’s American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) A–335 ferritic
alloy steel pipe (specifically, Grades P5,
P9, and P11) which USM imports is not
within the scope of the antidumping

People’s Republic of China
Requestor: Titan Worldwide
Industries Acquisition LLC (‘‘Titan’’);
Titan’s three types of scaffolding planks
(Aluminum Stages, Aluminum Planks
with Plywood Top, and Aluminum
Scaffold Boards) are outside the scope of
the orders because the scaffolding plank
products in question are comprised of
aluminum extrusions and non-extruded
and/or non-aluminum components and
enter as fully-assembled finished goods
that are permanently assembled,
completed, and are ready to use in a
scaffolding system with no further
modification subsequent to importation.
As such, these products are fully
assembled subassemblies ready for
immediate installation and use in a
larger system; July 8, 2014.
A–570–967 and C–570–968: Aluminum
Extrusions from the People’s Republic of
China
Requestor: Signature Partners Inc.
(‘‘Signature’’); Signature’s auto trim kit,
consisting of aluminum extrusions and
non-aluminum extrusion components,
is within the scope of the orders because
the product does not enter the United
States with all components necessary to
complete the final automotive trim kit
that is delivered to Signature’s
customer; July 17, 2014.
A–570–967 and C–570–968: Aluminum
Extrusions from the People’s Republic of
China
Requestor: Dynasty Profiles, LLC
(‘‘Dynasty’’); Dynasty’s aluminum fence
systems (specifically, Dynasty’s Pool
Enclosure Fence System, Fence System
for Single Family Home, Fence System
for Perimeter Wall, Front Yard Fence
System, Corner Fence System, and Entry
Gate System) are within the scope of the
orders because the information provided
by Dynasty was not substantial enough
to overcome the weight of the evidence
regarding the clear business pattern of
the fence industry that the Department
has seen in prior scope rulings. The
Department found that the logistical and
economic considerations of shipping
aluminum extrusion fence components
to the United States causes similar parts
to be combined in bulk, and then be
reprocessed or repackaged in the United
States, and that Dynasty has not
established that its aluminum fence
systems differ from this industry
pattern; July 22, 2014.

Requestor: Five Lakes Trading, Inc.
(‘‘Five Lakes’’); Five Lakes’ pocket door
track, which is extruded from alloy
series 6063 aluminum and is cut-tolength and punched, is within the scope
of the orders because it meets the
description of merchandise subject to
the orders; July 22, 2014.
A–570–967 and C–570–968: Aluminum
Extrusions from the People’s Republic of
China
Requestor: SPX Cooling Technologies,
Inc. (‘‘SPX’’); SPX’s fan blade
assemblies, which are composed of
extruded aluminum fan blades,
polypropylene end caps, a carbon steel
shank, carbon steel counter weights, and
steel blade hardware, are not within the
scope of the orders because they are
fully and permanently assembled at the
time of entry and require no further
finishing or fabrication prior to their
use. Thus, the Department determined
that the fan blade assemblies meet the
exclusion criteria for subassemblies that
are finished goods; July 25, 2014.
A–570–967 and C–570–968: Aluminum
Extrusions from the People’s Republic of
China
Requestor: Larson Manufacturing
Company (‘‘Larson’’); Larson’s storm
door accessory kits, which are
comprised of a door handle assembly kit
and a door expander/sweeper, are
outside the scope of the orders. The
Department first found that the first part
of the storm door accessory kit, the door
handle assembly kit, is not comprised of
aluminum extrusions and, therefore,
would not fall within the scope of the
order. With respect to the door
expander/sweeper, the Department
found that this part contains more than
just extruded aluminum components
beyond fasteners and contains parts that
are fully and permanently assembled
and completed at the time of entry and
ready to be installed on a storm door
and, thus, meet the exclusion criteria for
subassemblies that enter the United
States as ‘‘finished goods.’’ Therefore,
the Department determined that the
storm door accessory kit as whole is a
packaged combination of parts that
contains, at the time of importation, all
of the necessary parts to fully assemble
a final finished good and requires no
further finishing or fabrication, such as
cutting or punching, and is assembled
‘‘as is’’ into a finished product. Thus,
the storm door accessory kit meets the
exclusion for a finished goods kit;

Requestor: Whirlpool Corporation
(‘‘Whirlpool’’); Whirlpool’s kitchen
appliance door handles with plastic end
caps consisting of alloy 6 series
aluminum extrusions are within the
scope of the orders. The non-aluminum
components consist of plastic end caps
that are attached by metal screws to the
handle and the surface of the kitchen
appliance door. The handles are ready
for attachment to the refrigerator door
upon importation. The Department
determined that the kitchen handles at
issue were comprised entirely of
extruded aluminum and fasteners and,
thus, fall inside the language of the
scope that includes ‘‘aluminum
extrusions which are shapes and forms,
produced by an extrusion process.’’ The
Department further noted that, ‘‘an
imported product will not be considered
a ‘finished goods kit’ and, therefore,
excluded from the scope of the
investigation merely by including
fasteners such as screws, bolts, etc. in
the packaging with an aluminum
extrusion product.’’ On this basis, the
Department found the handles at issue

Requestor: Rheetech Sales & Services
Inc. (‘‘Rheetech’’); Rheetech’s aluminum
frames for screen printing, with the
mesh screen attached, are outside the
scope of the orders because they are
permanently assembled, completed, and
ready for use at the time of entry and
contain more than just aluminum
extrusion components and fasteners.
Thus, the Department determined that
Rheetech’s aluminum frames for screen
printing, with the mesh screen attached,
meet the exclusion criteria for
subassemblies that are finished goods;
August 7, 2014.
A–570–967 and C–570–968: Aluminum

(‘‘Districargo’’); Districargo’s exhibition
booth kits, which are composed of an
‘‘upright aluminum extrusion’’ or pole,
extruded aluminum beams, and various
iron buckles that are used to connect the
extruded aluminum pieces together are
within the scope of the orders because
the imported product is comprised of
extruded aluminum products with a
series designation commencing with the
number 6, save for iron buckles that are
used to connect the various extruded
aluminum parts. The Department based
its finding on the language in the scope
of the order which states that, ‘‘an
imported product will not be considered
a ‘finished goods kit’ and, therefore,
excluded from the scope of the
investigation merely by including
fasteners such as screws, bolts, etc. in

Vico’s cam-lock support poles, which
are composed of three aluminum
extrusion poles, along with a variety of
fasteners (such as screws and locknuts)
and non-extruded parts (such as
stainless steel springs, a nylon cam
lever, rubber crutch tips, and die-cast
aluminum collars, and some models
come with a plastic swivel base and
ball), are outside the scope of the orders
because they are finished goods
containing aluminum extrusions as
parts that are fully and permanently
assembled and completed at the time of
entry; September 12, 2014.
A–570–899: Certain Artist Canvas from
the People’s Republic of China
Requestor: Jiangsu Animal ByProducts Import & Export Group Corp.
(‘‘JABP’’); JABP’s artist canvases are

purchasers, a different ultimate use,
different channels of trade, and different
manners in which the products are
advertised or displayed than subject
merchandise; July 24, 2014.
Requestor: Lenz Sales and Dist., Inc.;
Lenz’s certain filled cylinders with
pressurized refrigerants are outside the
scope of the order because Lenz’s
cylinders are marked with DOT 39. The
plain language of scope of the
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders on high pressure steel cylinders
from the People’s Republic of China
states that merchandise impressed with
certain specified DOT type markings is
covered by the scope; however, a DOT
39 marking is not among the DOT
markings specified in the scope;
September 12, 2014.
A–570–504: Petroleum Wax Candles
from the People’s Republic of China
Requestor: Hallmark Cards, Inc.; The
Tinker Bell candle, taken in its entirety,
includes wings and a purple rock base
adorned with pink and yellow lilies
such that it does not fit the figurine
exclusion language as a human and is
therefore within the scope of the order;
July 23, 2014.
Interested parties are invited to
comment on the completeness of this
list of completed scope and
anticircumvention inquiries. Any
comments should be submitted to the
Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD

ACTION: Notice; reopening of paralytic
shellfish poisoning closed areas.
AGENCY:
Based on request from the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration,
NMFS is not going to renew the
paralytic shellfish poisoning closed
areas referred to as the Northern and
Southern Temporary Paralytic Shellfish
Poisoning Closed Areas for another year.
The areas have not been subject to a
toxic algal bloom for several years, and
recent testing of gastropods and whole/
roe-on scallops has demonstrated toxin
levels well below those known to cause
human illness.
DATES: The Northern and Southern
Temporary Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning
Closures will expire on December 31,
2014.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jason Berthiaume, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9177.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
On June 10, 2005, the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) requested
that NMFS close an area of Federal
waters off the coasts of New Hampshire
and Massachusetts (50 CFR
648.14(a)(10)(iii) and (iv)) for bivalve
harvesting due to the presence of toxins
that cause Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning
(PSP). These toxins can accumulate in
filter-feeding shellfish, and
consumption of contaminated shellfish
can cause illness or death.
These closures were first
implemented in 2005 (70 FR 35047) and
were subsequently modified a number
of times from 2005–2008, with the
remaining closure subsequently
extended from 2008 until 2013.
Beginning in 2014, the closures also
included a prohibition on the harvest of
gastropods (78 FR 78783). Also in 2014,
the Northern closure was lifted for
bivalve harvesting with the exception of
whole/roe on scallops (79 FR 59150),
leaving the area closed to gastropod and
whole/roe-on scallop harvesting through
December 31, 2014, unless otherwise
continued.
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Recently, NMFS, the FDA, the
Massachusetts Division of Marine
Fisheries (DMF) and the fishing
industry investigated whether the
closures are still warranted. The fishing
industry collected gastropod and scallop
samples from the areas during the
summer of 2014. The FDA conducted
laboratory testing of the samples
collected, which demonstrated toxin
levels well below those known to cause
human illness. As a result, on October
8, 2014, the FDA sent NMFS a letter
requesting that we not renew the
Northern and Southern Temporary PSP
Closures for 2015. NMFS has been
renewing these closures annually under
emergency authority at the request of
the FDA. The current closures are set to
expire on December 31, 2014, and
because the FDA has requested we not
renew the closures, they will expire at
the end of December, resulting in the
areas being open beginning January 1,
2015.
This notice is to inform the public
that the areas referred to as the Northern
and Temporary PSP Closed Areas will
be reopened beginning January 1, 2015
for gastropod and whole/roe-on scallop
harvesting. This includes the fisheries
for whelk, conch, snails and whole or
roe-on scallop harvesting. Scallop
harvesting of the abductor muscle is
already permitted in the area, and is not
affected by this reopening. Given that
the Northern closure was recently lifted
for other bivalves, this will remove
these closures in their entirety.
The FDA has an agreement with the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts to
conduct PSP monitoring of bivalves
from the area in accordance with
currently accepted PSP testing
procedures. The bivalve testing will
serve as an indicator for all molluscan
shellfish and gastropods. DMF is testing
the reopened waters, and if the results
yield samples that exceed the threshold
for public safety, DMF will inform us to
that effect, and we would work with the
FDA to reinstate the closure, as
necessary.
The areas defined at 50 CFR
648.81(h)(1)(i), (iv), and (vi) referred to
as the Western Gulf of Maine Habitat
Closure Area, Closed Area I-North
Habitat Closure Area, and Nantucket
Lightship Habitat Closed Area
respectively, overlap with the area that
would be reopened. These overlapping
closures areas remain closed to bottom
tending mobile gear including scallop
dredge gear, otter trawls, hydraulic clam
dredge gear and any other bottom
tending mobile gear types.

A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: TACO Metals Inc. (``TACO''); TACO's universal backrest
kits (consisting of: (i) two vertical support arms made of extruded and
anodized 6 series aluminum and injection molded plastic sleeves; and
(ii) one horizontal backrest made of PVC board backing, a soft urethane
foam cushion, marine grade vinyl fabric; and (iii) hardware made of
stainless steel) and universal T-Top kits (consisting of: (i) 2 side
frames, a top frame, and a cross bar, each made of 6 series anodized
extruded aluminum tubes, cast aluminum bar joints, cast aluminum plate
bases, and nylon sleeves and caps; and (ii) hardware made of stainless
steel) are outside the scope of the orders because both products enter
the United States with all parts needed to assemble a final finished
product; August 1, 2014.
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: Whirlpool Corporation (``Whirlpool''); Whirlpool's
kitchen appliance door handles with plastic end caps consisting of
alloy 6 series aluminum extrusions are within the scope of the orders.
The non-aluminum components consist of plastic end caps that are
attached by metal screws to the handle and the surface of the kitchen
appliance door. The handles are ready for attachment to the
refrigerator door upon importation. The Department determined that the
kitchen handles at issue were comprised entirely of extruded aluminum
and fasteners and, thus, fall inside the language of the scope that
includes ``aluminum extrusions which are shapes and forms, produced by
an extrusion process.'' The Department further noted that, ``an
imported product will not be considered a `finished goods kit' and,
therefore, excluded from the scope of the investigation merely by
including fasteners such as screws, bolts, etc. in the packaging with
an aluminum extrusion product.'' On this basis, the Department found
the handles at issue to be inside the scope of the orders; August 4,
2014
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: Whirlpool Corporation (``Whirlpool''); Whirlpool's
kitchen appliance door handles without plastic end caps consisting of
alloy 6 series aluminum extrusions are within the scope of the orders.
The handles are ready for attachment to the refrigerator door upon
importation. The Department determined that the kitchen handles at
issue were comprised entirely of extruded aluminum and fasteners and,
thus, fall inside the language of the scope that includes ``aluminum
extrusions which are shapes and forms, produced by an extrusion
process;'' August 4, 2014.
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: Rheetech Sales & Services Inc. (``Rheetech'');
Rheetech's aluminum frames for screen printing, with the mesh screen
attached, are outside the scope of the orders because they are
permanently assembled, completed, and ready for use at the time of
entry and contain more than just aluminum extrusion components and
fasteners. Thus, the Department determined that Rheetech's aluminum
frames for screen printing, with the mesh screen attached, meet the
exclusion criteria for subassemblies that are finished goods; August 7,
2014.
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: Districargo Inc. (``Districargo''); Districargo's
exhibition booth kits, which are composed of an ``upright aluminum
extrusion'' or pole, extruded aluminum beams, and various iron buckles
that are used to connect the extruded aluminum pieces together are
within the scope of the orders because the imported product is
comprised of extruded aluminum products with a series designation
commencing with the number 6, save for iron buckles that are used to
connect the various extruded aluminum parts. The Department based its
finding on the language in the scope of the order which states that,
``an imported product will not be considered a `finished goods kit'
and, therefore, excluded from the scope of the investigation merely by
including fasteners such as screws, bolts, etc. in the packaging with
an aluminum extrusion product;'' August 14, 2014.
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: TACO Metals Inc. (``TACO''); TACO's poles, rod holders,
and rod racks are outside the scope of the orders. TACO's poles, rod
holders, and rod racks consist of parts that are fully and permanently
assembled and completed at the time of entry, and are ready for
installation in a downstream product with no further finishing or
fabrication and, therefore meet the exclusion criteria for ``finished
goods.'' Additionally, TACO's weld-on rod holders contain, at the time
of importation, all of the necessary parts to fully assemble a final
finished good and require no further finishing or fabrication, such as
cutting or punching, and are assembled ``as is'' into a finished
product and, therefore, meet the exclusion criteria for ``finished
goods kits; '' August 18, 2014.
A-570-967 and C-570-968: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic
of China
Requestor: Vico Plastics Inc. (``Vico''); Vico's cam-lock support
poles, which are composed of three aluminum extrusion poles, along with
a variety of fasteners (such as screws and locknuts) and non-extruded
parts (such as stainless steel springs, a nylon cam lever, rubber
crutch tips, and die-cast aluminum collars, and some models come with a
plastic swivel base and ball), are outside the scope of the orders
because they are finished goods containing aluminum extrusions as parts
that are fully and permanently assembled and completed at the time of
entry; September 12, 2014.
A-570-899: Certain Artist Canvas from the People's Republic of China
Requestor: Jiangsu Animal By-Products Import & Export Group Corp.
(``JABP''); JABP's artist canvases are outside the scope of the order
because the weaving and priming of the canvases, which impart the
artist canvases' essential characteristics, are performed in India and
not the People's Republic of China; July 23, 2014.
A-570-932: Certain Steel Threaded Rod from the People's Republic of
China
Requestor: Colonial Elegance Inc.; Baluster Fasteners with a
driver, and Newel Fasteners are included within the scope of the
antidumping duty order because each of these products match the
physical description of subject merchandise found in the order; August
1, 2014.
A-570-983 and C-570-984: Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks from the People's
Republic of China
Requestor: Speakman Company (``Speakman''); Speakman's industrial
bowls (that are used in Speakman's Safety Products such as Speakman
eyewashes, Speakman eye/face washes, and Speakman's combination units
or decontamination stations that include a shower and eyewash) are
outside the scope of the orders because Speakman's
[[Page 73554]]
industrial bowls have different ultimate purchasers, a different
ultimate use, different channels of trade, and different manners in
which the products are advertised or displayed than subject
merchandise; July 24, 2014.
A-570-977 and C-570-978: High Pressure Steel Cylinders from the
People's Republic of China
Requestor: Lenz Sales and Dist., Inc.; Lenz's certain filled
cylinders with pressurized refrigerants are outside the scope of the
order because Lenz's cylinders are marked with DOT 39. The plain
language of scope of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on
high pressure steel cylinders from the People's Republic of China
states that merchandise impressed with certain specified DOT type
markings is covered by the scope; however, a DOT 39 marking is not
among the DOT markings specified in the scope; September 12, 2014.
A-570-504: Petroleum Wax Candles from the People's Republic of China
Requestor: Hallmark Cards, Inc.; The Tinker Bell candle, taken in
its entirety, includes wings and a purple rock base adorned with pink
and yellow lilies such that it does not fit the figurine exclusion
language as a human and is therefore within the scope of the order;
July 23, 2014.
Interested parties are invited to comment on the completeness of
this list of completed scope and anticircumvention inquiries. Any
comments should be submitted to the Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/
CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade
Administration, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., APO/Dockets
Unit, Room 1870, Washington, DC 20230.
