Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On February 13, 2015, 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 jewelry
armoires that have at least one front
door. 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
jewelry armoires that have at least one
front door as described below.

Background
On January 4, 2005, the Department
published the Order in the Federal
Register. On February 13, 2015, the
Department received a request on behalf
of Pier 1 Imports (U.S.), Inc. (‘‘Pier
One’’) for a changed circumstances
review to revoke, in part, the Order with
respect to jewelry armoires with at least
one front door.2 On March 11, 2015, the
American Furniture Manufacturers
Committee for Legal Trade and
Vaughan-Bassett Furniture Company,
Inc. (collectively, ‘‘Petitioners’’) stated
that they agree with the scope exclusion
language proposed by Pier One.3
On April 2, 2015, we published the
Initiation Notice in the Federal
Register.4 Because the statement
submitted by Petitioners in support of
Pier One’s 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 for the revocation in
part, as well as comments and/or factual
information regarding the changed
circumstances review. No comments
were submitted by any party.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
wooden bedroom furniture. Wooden
bedroom furniture is generally, but not
exclusively, designed, manufactured,
and offered for sale in coordinated

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.
18 Upholstered beds that are completely
upholstered, i.e., containing filling material and

major sections: (1) A metal wall frame,
which attaches to the wall and uses
coils or pistons to support the metal
mattress frame; (2) a metal frame, which
has euro slats for supporting a mattress
and two legs that pivot; and (3) wood
panels, which attach to the metal wall
frame and/or the metal mattress frame to
form a cabinet to enclose the wall bed
when not in use. Excluded enclosable
wall bed units are imported in ready-toassemble format with all parts necessary
for assembly. Enclosable wall bed units
do not include a mattress. Wood panels
of enclosable wall bed units, when
imported separately, remain subject to
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
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.
Imports of subject merchandise are
classified under subheadings
9403.50.9042 and 9403.50.9045 of the
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,
9403.20.0018, or 9403.90.8041. 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 scope of the order currently
excludes certain jewelry armoires with
at least one side door but does not
exclude jewelry armoires with at least
one front door. Pier One proposes
adding the phrase ‘‘or at least one front
door’’ to the existing exclusion for
jewelry armoires. Thus, excluded
jewelry armoires would be: ‘‘{A}ny
armoire, cabinet or other accent item for
the purpose of storing jewelry, not to
exceed 24 inches in width, 18 inches in
depth, and 49 inches in height,
including a minimum of 5 lined drawers
lined with felt or felt-like material, at
least one side door or one front door
(whether or not the door is lined with
felt or felt-like material), with necklace
hangers, and a flip-top lid with inset
mirror.’’

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.20 The Department has
interpreted ‘‘substantially all’’ to
represent producers accounting for at

least 85 percent of U.S. production of
the domestic like product.21
On February 13, 2015, Pier One
requested that the Department expedite
the changed circumstances review.22
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.23 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
Pier One’s Request did not indicate
whether Petitioners account for
substantially all domestic wooden
bedroom furniture production.24 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
jewelry armoires. Further, the
Department requested interested party
comments on the issue of domestic
industry support of a partial
revocation.25 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 jewelry
armoires described in Pier One’s
Request. We will consider comments
from interested parties on these
preliminary results before issuing the
final results of this review.26

As noted in the Initiation Notice, Pier
One requested the revocation of the
Order, in part, and supported its
request. In light of Pier One’s Request
and the absence of any 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 jewelry armoires that are the subject
of Pier One’s Request.
Accordingly, we are notifying the
public of our intent to revoke the Order,
in part, with respect to jewelry armoires
with at least one front door. We intend
to carry out this revocation by stating
that the scope of the order excludes any
armoire, cabinet or other accent item for
the purpose of storing jewelry, not to
exceed 24 inches in width, 18 inches in
depth, and 49 inches in height,
including a minimum of 5 lined drawers
lined with felt or felt-like material, at
least one side door or one front door
(whether or not the door is lined with
felt or felt-like material), with necklace
hangers, and a flip-top lid with inset
mirror.

Interested parties are invited to
comment on these preliminary results in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.309(c)(1)(ii). Written comments may
be submitted no later than 14 days after
the date of publication of these
preliminary results. Rebuttals to written

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 February 13, 2015, 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 jewelry
armoires that have at least one front door. 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 jewelry armoires
that have at least one front door as described below. Accordingly, we
intend to revoke, in part, the Order as to imports of jewelry armoires
with at least one front door. The Department invites interested parties
to comment on these preliminary results.

DATES: Effective Date: August 11, 2015.

Background
On January 4, 2005, the Department published the Order in the
Federal Register. On February 13, 2015, the Department received a
request on behalf of Pier 1 Imports (U.S.), Inc. (``Pier One'') for a
changed circumstances review to revoke, in part, the Order with respect
to jewelry armoires with at least one front door.\2\ On March 11, 2015,
the American Furniture Manufacturers Committee for Legal Trade and
Vaughan-Bassett Furniture Company, Inc. (collectively, ``Petitioners'')
stated that they agree with the scope exclusion language proposed by
Pier One.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Submission from Pier One, ``Wooden Bedroom Furniture
From the People's Republic of China; Request for a Changed
Circumstance Review as to Certain Additional Jewelry Armoires,''
dated February 13, 2015 (``Pier One's Request'').
\3\ See March 11, 2015 letter from King & Spalding Re: Wooden
Bedroom Furniture From The People's Republic of China/Petitioners'
Response to Pier 1 Imports' Letter of February 13, 2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On April 2, 2015, we published the Initiation Notice in the Federal
Register.\4\ Because the statement submitted by Petitioners in support
of Pier One's 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 for the revocation in part, as
well as comments and/or factual information regarding the changed
circumstances review. No comments were submitted by any party.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is wooden bedroom furniture.
Wooden bedroom furniture is generally, but not exclusively, designed,
manufactured, and offered for sale in coordinated groups, or bedrooms,
in which all of the individual pieces are of approximately the same

slightly larger chest; also known as a tallboy.
\6\ A highboy is typically a tall chest of drawers usually

than four feet high, normally set on short legs.
\8\ A chest of drawers is typically a case containing drawers
for storing clothing.
\9\ A chest is typically a case piece taller than it is wide
featuring a series of drawers and with or without one or more doors

(typically 50 inches or taller), with doors, and with one or more
drawers (either exterior below or above the doors or interior behind
the doors), shelves, and/or garment rods or other apparatus for
storing clothes. Bedroom armoires may also be used to hold

imported in ready-to-assemble format with all parts necessary for
assembly. Enclosable wall bed units do not include a mattress. Wood
panels of enclosable wall bed units, when imported separately, remain
subject to the order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ As used herein, bentwood means solid wood made pliable.
Bentwood is wood that is brought to a curved shape by bending it
while made pliable with moist heat or other agency and then set by

dated May 17, 1976.
\15\ Any armoire, cabinet or other accent item for the purpose
of storing jewelry, not to exceed 24 inches in width, 18 inches in
depth, and 49 inches in height, including a minimum of 5 lined
drawers lined with felt or felt-like material, at least one side
door (whether or not the door is lined with felt or felt-like
material), with necklace hangers, and a flip-top lid with inset
mirror. See Issues and Decision Memorandum from Laurel LaCivita to
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
Republic of China: Final Changed Circumstances Review, and
Determination To Revoke Order in Part, 71 FR 38621 (July 7, 2006).
\16\ Cheval mirrors are any framed, tiltable mirror with a
height in excess of 50 inches that is mounted on a floor-standing,
hinged base. Additionally, the scope of the order excludes
combination cheval mirror/jewelry cabinets. The excluded merchandise
is an integrated piece consisting of a cheval mirror, i.e., a framed
tiltable mirror with a height in excess of 50 inches, mounted on a
floor-standing, hinged base, the cheval mirror serving as a door to
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
50 inches in height, 14.5 inches in width, and 3 inches in depth.
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).
\17\ 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.
\18\ 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).
\19\ To be excluded the toy box must: (1) Be wider than it is
tall; (2) have dimensions within 16 inches to 27 inches in height,
15 inches to 18 inches in depth, and 21 inches to 30 inches in
width; (3) have a hinged lid that encompasses the entire top of the
box; (4) not incorporate any doors or drawers; (5) have slow-closing
safety hinges; (6) have air vents; (7) have no locking mechanism;
and (8) comply with American Society for Testing and Materials
(``ASTM'') standard F963-03. Toy boxes are boxes generally designed
for the purpose of storing children's items such as toys, books, and
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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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.
Imports of subject merchandise are classified under subheadings
9403.50.9042 and 9403.50.9045 of the 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, 9403.20.0018, or 9403.90.8041. 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.
[[Page 48077]]
Scope of Changed Circumstances Review
The scope of the order currently excludes certain jewelry armoires
with at least one side door but does not exclude jewelry armoires with
at least one front door. Pier One proposes adding the phrase ``or at
least one front door'' to the existing exclusion for jewelry armoires.
Thus, excluded jewelry armoires would be: ``{A{time} ny armoire,
cabinet or other accent item for the purpose of storing jewelry, not to
exceed 24 inches in width, 18 inches in depth, and 49 inches in height,
including a minimum of 5 lined drawers lined with felt or felt-like
material, at least one side door or one front door (whether or not the
door is lined with felt or felt-like material), with necklace hangers,
and a flip-top lid with inset mirror.''
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.\20\ The Department has interpreted ``substantially all'' to
represent producers accounting for at least 85 percent of U.S.
production of the domestic like product.\21\

Reviews; Revocation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders,
77 FR 77029 (December 31, 2012)(``Honey From Argentina'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On February 13, 2015, Pier One requested that the Department
expedite the changed circumstances review.\22\ 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.\23\ 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 Pier One's
Request did not indicate whether Petitioners account for substantially
all domestic wooden bedroom furniture production.\24\ 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 jewelry armoires. Further, the Department requested interested
party comments on the issue of domestic industry support of a partial
revocation.\25\ 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 jewelry armoires described in Pier One's
Request. We will consider comments from interested parties on these
preliminary results before issuing the final results of this
review.\26\

see also 19 CFR 351.222(g)(1)(v).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As noted in the Initiation Notice, Pier One requested the
revocation of the Order, in part, and supported its request. In light
of Pier One's Request and the absence of any 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 jewelry armoires that
are the subject of Pier One's Request.
Accordingly, we are notifying the public of our intent to revoke
the Order, in part, with respect to jewelry armoires with at least one
front door. We intend to carry out this revocation by stating that the
scope of the order excludes any armoire, cabinet or other accent item
for the purpose of storing jewelry, not to exceed 24 inches in width,
18 inches in depth, and 49 inches in height, including a minimum of 5
lined drawers lined with felt or felt-like material, at least one side
door or one front door (whether or not the door is lined with felt or
felt-like material), with necklace hangers, and a flip-top lid with
inset mirror.
Public Comment
Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary
results in accordance with 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii). Written comments
may be submitted no later than 14 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 submissions must be filed
electronically using Enforcement and Compliance's AD and Countervailing
Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (``ACCESS''). ACCESS is
available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov and in the
Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce
building. An electronically filed document must be received
successfully in its entirety by ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time on the
day it is due.
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
[[Page 48078]]
that changed circumstances warrant the revocation of the Order, in
part, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 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.
