Continuation of the Order on PET Film
From the PRC and the UAE
As a result of the determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of these antidumping duty
orders would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to sections
751(c) and 751(d)(2) of the Act, the
Department hereby orders the
continuation of the AD order on PET
Film from the PRC and the UAE. U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
will continue to collect antidumping
duty cash deposits at the rates in effect
at the time of entry for all imports of
subject merchandise.
The effective date of the continuation
of this order will be the date of
publication in the Federal Register of
this notice of continuation. Pursuant to
section 751(c)(2) of the Act, the
Department intends to initiate the next
five-year review of this order not later
than 30 days prior to the fifth
anniversary of the effective date of
continuation.

SUMMARY: On June 2, 2014, the
Department of Commerce (the
‘‘Department’’) received a request for
revocation, in part, of the antidumping
duty (‘‘AD’’) order on wooden bedroom
furniture from the People’s Republic of
China (‘‘PRC’’) 1 with respect to certain
shoe cabinets. We preliminarily
determine that the producers accounting
for substantially all of the production of
the domestic like product to which the
Order pertains lack interest in the relief
provided by the Order with respect to
certain shoe cabinets described below.
Accordingly, we intend to revoke, in
part, the Order as to imports of certain
shoe cabinets. The Department invites

Background
On January 4, 2005, the Department
published the Order in the Federal
Register. On June 2, 2014, the
Department received a request on behalf
of Elements International Group LLC
(‘‘Elements’’) for a changed
circumstances review to revoke, in part,
the Order with respect to certain shoe
cabinets.2 In its request, Elements stated
that the American Furniture
Manufacturing Committee for Legal
Trade and Vaughan-Basset Furniture
Company, Inc. (‘‘Petitioners’’) discussed
the scope exclusion described below
and are in agreement with the
revocation, in part. On June 3, 2014, the
Department received a letter from the
Petitioners in which they stated they
were in agreement with the proposed
scope exclusion language in Elements’
June 2, 2014, changed circumstances
review request.3
On July 15, 2014, we published the
Initiation Notice in the Federal
Register.4 Because the statement
submitted by Petitioners in support of
Elements’ Request did not indicate
whether Petitioners account for
substantially all of the domestic wooden
bedroom furniture production, in the
Initiation Notice, we invited interested
parties to submit comments concerning
industry support, as well as comments
and/or factual information regarding the
changed circumstances review.5 We
received no comments concerning
industry support.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
wooden bedroom furniture. Wooden

Scope of Changed Circumstances
Review
The products covered by this changed
circumstances review are shoe cabinets
31.5–33.5 inches wide by 15.5–17.5
inches deep by 34.5–36.5 inches high.
They are designed strictly to store shoes,
which are intended to be aligned in
rows perpendicular to the wall along
which the cabinet is positioned. Shoe
cabinets do not have drawers, rods, or
other indicia for the storage of clothing
other than shoes. The cabinets are not
designed, manufactured, or offered for
sale in coordinated groups or sets and
are made substantially of wood, have
two to four shelves inside them, and are
covered by doors. The doors often have
blinds that are designed to allow air
circulation and release of bad odors.
The doors themselves may be made of
wood or glass. The depth of the shelves
does not exceed 14’’. Each shoe cabinet
has doors, adjustable shelving, and
ventilation holes.
Preliminary Results of Changed
Circumstances Review, and Intent To
Revoke the Order, in Part
Pursuant to section 751(d)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
‘‘Act’’), and 19 CFR 351.222(g), the
Department may revoke an AD order, in
whole or in part, based on a review
under section 751(b) of the Act (i.e., a
changed circumstances review). Section
751(b)(1) of the Act requires a changed
circumstances review to be conducted
upon receipt of a request which shows
changed circumstances sufficient to
warrant a review. Section 782(h)(2) of
the Act gives the Department the
authority to revoke an order if producers
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:52 Feb 05, 2015
Jkt 235001
accounting for substantially all of the
production of the domestic like product
have expressed a lack of interest in the
order. 19 CFR 351.222(g) provides that
the Department will conduct a changed
circumstances review under 19 CFR
351.216, and may revoke an order (in
whole or in part), if it concludes that (i)
producers accounting for substantially
all of the production of the domestic
like product to which the order pertains
have expressed a lack of interest in the
relief provided by the order, in whole or
in part, or (ii) if other changed
circumstances sufficient to warrant
revocation exist. Both the Act and the
Department’s regulations require that
‘‘substantially all’’ domestic producers
express a lack of interest in the order for
the Department to revoke the order, in
whole or in part.21 The Department has
interpreted ‘‘substantially all’’ to
represent producers accounting for at
least 85 percent of U.S. production of
the domestic like product.22
On June 2, 2014, Elements requested
that the Department expedite the
changed circumstances review.23 The
Department’s regulations do not specify
a deadline for the issuance of
preliminary results of a changed
circumstances review, but provide that
the Department will issue the final
results of review within 270 days after
the date on which the changed
circumstances review is initiated, or
within 45 days if all parties to the
proceeding agree to the outcome of the
review.24 The Department did not issue
a combined notice of initiation and
preliminary results because, as
discussed above, the statement provided
by Petitioners and offered in support of
Elements’ Request does not indicate
whether Petitioners account for
substantially all domestic wooden
bedroom furniture production.25 Thus,
the Department did not determine in the
Initiation Notice that producers
accounting for substantially all of the
production of the domestic like product
lacked interest in the continued
application of the Order as to certain
shoe cabinets. Further, the Department
requested interested party comments on

the issue of domestic industry support
of a partial revocation.26 Because the
Department received no comments
concerning a lack of industry support or
opposing initiation of the changed
circumstances review of the Order, the
Department now preliminarily finds
that producers accounting for
substantially all of the production of the
domestic like product lack interest in
the relief afforded by the Order with
respect to the certain shoe cabinets
described in Elements’ Request. We
request comment from interested parties
on that preliminary finding before
issuing the final results of this review.27
As noted in the Initiation Notice,
Elements requested the revocation of the
Order, in part, and supported its
request. In light of Elements’ Request
and the interested party comments
received during the comment period, we
preliminarily conclude that changed
circumstances warrant revocation of the
Order, in part, because the producers
accounting for substantially all of the
production of the domestic like product
to which the Order pertains lack interest
in the relief provided by the Order with
respect to the certain shoe cabinets that
are the subject of Elements’ Request.
Accordingly, we are notifying the
public of our intent to revoke the Order,
in part, with respect to certain shoe
cabinets. We intend to revoke the Order
as to certain shoe cabinets by including
the following language in the scope of
the Order:
Also excluded from the scope are
certain shoe cabinets 31.5–33.5 inches
wide by 15.5–17.5 inches deep by 34.5–
36.5 inches high. They are designed
strictly to store shoes, which are
intended to be aligned in rows
perpendicular to the wall along which
the cabinet is positioned. Shoe cabinets
do not have drawers, rods, or other
indicia for the storage of clothing other
than shoes. The cabinets are not
designed, manufactured, or offered for

Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent To
Revoke Antidumping Duty Order in Part
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On June 2, 2014, the Department of Commerce (the
``Department'') received a request for revocation, in part, of the
antidumping duty (``AD'') order on wooden bedroom furniture from the
People's Republic of China (``PRC'') \1\ with respect to certain shoe
cabinets. We preliminarily determine that the producers accounting for
substantially all of the production of the domestic like product to
which the Order pertains lack interest in the relief provided by the
Order with respect to certain shoe cabinets described below.
Accordingly, we intend to revoke, in part, the Order as to imports of
certain shoe cabinets. The Department invites interested parties to
comment on these preliminary results.

Operations, Office IV, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and

3936 or (202) 482-5193, respectively.
Background
On January 4, 2005, the Department published the Order in the
Federal Register. On June 2, 2014, the Department received a request on
behalf of Elements International Group LLC (``Elements'') for a changed
circumstances review to revoke, in part, the Order with respect to
certain shoe cabinets.\2\ In its request, Elements stated that the
American Furniture Manufacturing Committee for Legal Trade and Vaughan-
Basset Furniture Company, Inc. (``Petitioners'') discussed the scope
exclusion described below and are in agreement with the revocation, in
part. On June 3, 2014, the Department received a letter from the
Petitioners in which they stated they were in agreement with the
proposed scope exclusion language in Elements' June 2, 2014, changed
circumstances review request.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Submission from Elements, ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture
From the People's Republic of China: Request for a Changed
Circumstance Review Regarding Shoe Cabinets,'' dated June 2, 2014
(``Elements' Request'').
\3\ See Submission from Petitioners, ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture
From The People's Republic of China/Petitioners' Response to
Elements' Letter of June 2, 2014,'' dated June 3, 2014.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 15, 2014, we published the Initiation Notice in the Federal
Register.\4\ Because the statement submitted by Petitioners in support
of Elements' Request did not indicate whether Petitioners account for
substantially all of the domestic wooden bedroom furniture production,
in the Initiation Notice, we invited interested parties to submit
comments concerning industry support, as well as comments and/or
factual information regarding the changed circumstances review.\5\ We
received no comments concerning industry support.

Laurie Parkhill, Office Director, concerning ``Jewelry Armoires and
Cheval Mirrors in the Antidumping Duty Investigation of Wooden
Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China,'' dated
August 31, 2004. See also Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's

a cabinet back that is integral to the structure of the mirror and
which constitutes a jewelry cabinet line with fabric, having
necklace and bracelet hooks, mountings for rings and shelves, with
or without a working lock and key to secure the contents of the
jewelry cabinet back to the cheval mirror, and no drawers anywhere
on the integrated piece. The fully assembled piece must be at least

See Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's Republic of China:
Final Changed Circumstances Review and Determination To Revoke Order
in Part, 72 FR 948 (January 9, 2007).
\18\ Metal furniture parts and unfinished furniture parts made
of wood products (as defined above) that are not otherwise
specifically named in this scope (i.e., wooden headboards for beds,
wooden footboards for beds, wooden side rails for beds, and wooden
canopies for beds) and that do not possess the essential character
of wooden bedroom furniture in an unassembled, incomplete, or
unfinished form. Such parts are usually classified under HTSUS
subheadings 9403.90.7005, 9403.90.7010, or 9403.90.7080.
\19\ Upholstered beds that are completely upholstered, i.e.,
containing filling material and completely covered in sewn genuine
leather, synthetic leather, or natural or synthetic decorative
fabric. To be excluded, the entire bed (headboards, footboards, and
side rails) must be upholstered except for bed feet, which may be of
wood, metal, or any other material and which are no more than nine
inches in height from the floor. See Wooden Bedroom Furniture From
the People's Republic of China: Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Review and Determination to Revoke Order in Part, 72
FR 7013 (February 14, 2007).
\20\ To be excluded the toy box must: (1) Be wider than it is

safety hinges; (6) have air vents; (7) have no locking mechanism;
and (8) comply with American Society for Testing and Materials

playthings. See Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's Republic
of China: Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review and
Determination to Revoke Order in Part, 74 FR 8506 (February 25,
2009). Further, as determined in the scope ruling memorandum
``Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China:
Scope Ruling on a White Toy Box,'' dated July 6, 2009, the
dimensional ranges used to identify the toy boxes that are excluded
from the wooden bedroom furniture order apply to the box itself
rather than the lid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Imports of subject merchandise are classified under subheadings
9403.50.9042 and 9403.50.9045 of the
[[Page 6692]]
HTSUS as ``wooden . . . beds'' and under subheading 9403.50.9080 of the
HTSUS as ``other . . . wooden furniture of a kind used in the
bedroom.'' In addition, wooden headboards for beds, wooden footboards
for beds, wooden side rails for beds, and wooden canopies for beds may
also be entered under subheading 9403.50.9042 or 9403.50.9045 of the
HTSUS as ``parts of wood.'' Subject merchandise may also be entered
under subheadings 9403.50.9041, 9403.60.8081, or 9403.20.0018. Further,
framed glass mirrors may be entered under subheading 7009.92.1000 or
7009.92.5000 of the HTSUS as ``glass mirrors . . . framed.'' The order
covers all wooden bedroom furniture meeting the above description,
regardless of tariff classification. Although the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description
of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive.
Scope of Changed Circumstances Review
The products covered by this changed circumstances review are shoe
cabinets 31.5-33.5 inches wide by 15.5-17.5 inches deep by 34.5-36.5
inches high. They are designed strictly to store shoes, which are
intended to be aligned in rows perpendicular to the wall along which
the cabinet is positioned. Shoe cabinets do not have drawers, rods, or
other indicia for the storage of clothing other than shoes. The
cabinets are not designed, manufactured, or offered for sale in
coordinated groups or sets and are made substantially of wood, have two
to four shelves inside them, and are covered by doors. The doors often
have blinds that are designed to allow air circulation and release of
bad odors. The doors themselves may be made of wood or glass. The depth
of the shelves does not exceed 14''. Each shoe cabinet has doors,
adjustable shelving, and ventilation holes.
Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent To
Revoke the Order, in Part
Pursuant to section 751(d)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the ``Act''), and 19 CFR 351.222(g), the Department may revoke an AD
order, in whole or in part, based on a review under section 751(b) of
the Act (i.e., a changed circumstances review). Section 751(b)(1) of
the Act requires a changed circumstances review to be conducted upon
receipt of a request which shows changed circumstances sufficient to
warrant a review. Section 782(h)(2) of the Act gives the Department the
authority to revoke an order if producers accounting for substantially
all of the production of the domestic like product have expressed a
lack of interest in the order. 19 CFR 351.222(g) provides that the
Department will conduct a changed circumstances review under 19 CFR
351.216, and may revoke an order (in whole or in part), if it concludes
that (i) producers accounting for substantially all of the production
of the domestic like product to which the order pertains have expressed
a lack of interest in the relief provided by the order, in whole or in
part, or (ii) if other changed circumstances sufficient to warrant
revocation exist. Both the Act and the Department's regulations require
that ``substantially all'' domestic producers express a lack of
interest in the order for the Department to revoke the order, in whole
or in part.\21\ The Department has interpreted ``substantially all'' to
represent producers accounting for at least 85 percent of U.S.
production of the domestic like product.\22\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On June 2, 2014, Elements requested that the Department expedite
the changed circumstances review.\23\ The Department's regulations do
not specify a deadline for the issuance of preliminary results of a
changed circumstances review, but provide that the Department will
issue the final results of review within 270 days after the date on
which the changed circumstances review is initiated, or within 45 days
if all parties to the proceeding agree to the outcome of the
review.\24\ The Department did not issue a combined notice of
initiation and preliminary results because, as discussed above, the
statement provided by Petitioners and offered in support of Elements'
Request does not indicate whether Petitioners account for substantially
all domestic wooden bedroom furniture production.\25\ Thus, the
Department did not determine in the Initiation Notice that producers
accounting for substantially all of the production of the domestic like
product lacked interest in the continued application of the Order as to
certain shoe cabinets. Further, the Department requested interested
party comments on the issue of domestic industry support of a partial
revocation.\26\ Because the Department received no comments concerning
a lack of industry support or opposing initiation of the changed
circumstances review of the Order, the Department now preliminarily
finds that producers accounting for substantially all of the production
of the domestic like product lack interest in the relief afforded by
the Order with respect to the certain shoe cabinets described in
Elements' Request. We request comment from interested parties on that
preliminary finding before issuing the final results of this
review.\27\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As noted in the Initiation Notice, Elements requested the
revocation of the Order, in part, and supported its request. In light
of Elements' Request and the interested party comments received during
the comment period, we preliminarily conclude that changed
circumstances warrant revocation of the Order, in part, because the
producers accounting for substantially all of the production of the
domestic like product to which the Order pertains lack interest in the
relief provided by the Order with respect to the certain shoe cabinets
that are the subject of Elements' Request.
Accordingly, we are notifying the public of our intent to revoke
the Order, in part, with respect to certain shoe cabinets. We intend to
revoke the Order as to certain shoe cabinets by including the following
language in the scope of the Order:
Also excluded from the scope are certain shoe cabinets 31.5-33.5 inches
wide by 15.5-17.5 inches deep by 34.5-36.5 inches high. They are
designed strictly to store shoes, which are intended to be aligned in
rows perpendicular to the wall along which the cabinet is positioned.
Shoe cabinets do not have drawers, rods, or other indicia for the
storage of clothing other than shoes. The cabinets are not designed,
manufactured, or offered for
[[Page 6693]]
sale in coordinated groups or sets and are made substantially of wood,
have two to four shelves inside them, and are covered by doors. The
doors often have blinds that are designed to allow air circulation and
release of bad odors. The doors themselves may be made of wood or
glass. The depth of the shelves does not exceed 14 inches. Each shoe
cabinet has doors, adjustable shelving, and ventilation holes.
Public Comment
Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary
results in accordance with 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii). If an interested
party is of the view that certain arguments continue to be relevant to
the Department's final results of this review, that interested party is
required to file a case brief containing all such arguments, including
any such arguments presented to the Department before the date of
publication of the preliminary results, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.309(c)(2). Written comments may be submitted no later than 10 days
after the date of publication of these preliminary results. Rebuttals
to written comments, limited to issues raised in such comments, may be
filed no later than seven days after the due date for comments. All
comments are to be filed electronically using Enforcement and
Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic
Service System (``ACCESS'') which is available to registered users at
https://access.trade.gov and in the Central Records Unit, Room 7046 of
the main Department of Commerce building. Comments must also be served
on interested parties.\28\ An electronically filed document must be
received successfully in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time on the day it is due.\29\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\28\ See 19 CFR 351.303(f).
\29\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Department will issue the final results of this changed
circumstances review, which will include its analysis of any written
comments, no later than 270 days after the date on which this review
was initiated.
If, in the final results of this review, the Department continues
to determine that changed circumstances warrant the revocation of the
Order, in part, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(``CBP'') to liquidate without regard to antidumping duties, and to
refund any estimated antidumping duties, on all unliquidated entries of
the merchandise covered by the revocation that are not covered by the
final results of an administrative review or automatic liquidation.
The current requirement for cash deposits of estimated antidumping
duties on all entries of subject merchandise will continue unless until
they are modified pursuant to the final results of this changed
circumstances review.
These preliminary results of review and notice are in accordance
with sections 751(b) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221 and 19
CFR 351.222.
