Certain Cased Pencils From the

Initiation and Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Changed

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) has received
information sufficient to warrant
initiation of a changed circumstances
AGENCY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain cased pencils (pencils) from
the People’s Republic of China (PRC).1
Based upon the request, the Department
is initiating a changed circumstances
review (CCR) to determine whether
pencils exported by Beijing FILA Dixon
Stationery Co., Ltd.2 (Beijing Dixon)
continue not to be subject to the Order.
In response to the request, and pursuant
to section 751(b) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), 19 CFR
351.216, and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3), the
Department preliminarily determines
that Beijing Dixon, after the changed
circumstances, is the successor-ininterest to Beijing Dixon at the time of
the Revocation, such that the revocation
of the antidumping duty order with
respect to Beijing Dixon 3 continues to
apply to Beijing Dixon as currently
structured. We invite interested parties
to comment on these preliminary
results.
DATES: Effective: February 26, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
December 28, 1994, the Department
published the Order on pencils from the
PRC.4 On July 18, 2013, the Department
revoked the Order on pencils from the
PRC with respect to pencils exported by
Beijing Dixon.5
Background
On November 27, 2014, pursuant to
19 CFR 351.216 and 19 CFR 351.221,
Beijing Dixon, and the Dixon
Ticonderoga Company (Ticonderoga),
Beijing Dixon’s U.S. parent company,
requested a CCR because Beijing Dixon’s
production of pencils is now performed
by Fila Dixon Stationery (Kunshan) Co.,
Ltd. (Kunshan Dixon), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Beijing Dixon formed after
the Revocation.6 Beijing Dixon and

Dixon Ticonderoga requested that the
Department ‘‘confirm that {Kunshan
Dixon} is the same entity as (or
successor-in-interest to) Beijing
Dixon.’’ 7 Beijing Dixon produced and
exported pencils at the time of the
Revocation. Beijing Dixon has since
amended its business license and
continues to function as the exporter of
pencils, now produced by its subsidiary
Kunshan Dixon.8 Based on these events
since the Revocation, Ticonderoga and
Beijing Dixon contend that Kunshan
Dixon is the successor-in-interest to
Beijing Dixon; as such, they request that
the Department apply its determination
to revoke the Order with respect to
Beijing Dixon to pencils produced by
Kunshan Dixon and exported by Beijing
Dixon.
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order
includes pencils from the PRC. Pencils
are currently classifiable under
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) subheading
9609.1010. Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written product description is
dispositive.9
Methodology
In making a successor-in-interest
determination, the Department typically
examines several factors including, but
not limited to, changes in: (1)
Management; (2) production facilities;
(3) supplier relationships; and (4)
customer base.10 While no single factor
or combination of factors will
necessarily be dispositive, the
Department generally will consider the
new company to be the successor to the
predecessor if the resulting operations
of the successor are not materially
dissimilar to that of its predecessor.11
