Download as PDF 55594 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 179 / Wednesday, September 16, 2015 / Notices were covered by the scope of the Orders, because they did not contain any nonaluminum extrusion components beyond fasteners.8 In its Remand Order, the Court remanded the underlying scope ruling and directed the Department to ‘‘clarify or reconsider, as appropriate, its inclusion of the ASE, ASH, and DJX3– W dock ladder kit models within the scope of the Orders . . .’’ 9 The Court also requested that the Department consider whether the exception to the ‘‘finished goods kit’’ exclusion in the scope is inapplicable because the nonaluminum components of the kits at issue are not fasteners.10 In the Remand Redetermination, the Department reconsidered the record evidence provided by ASC and found that certain components in the three dock ladder kits at issue (i.e., plastic coated cables included on one model and plastic end caps included in all three models) were not fasteners.11 Because all three of the ladder kit models under consideration include non-aluminum extrusions components other than fasteners (i.e., plastic coated cables and/or plastic end caps), and the Department had determined in the Final Scope Ruling that these three kits contained all the parts needed to fully assemble a finished good with no further fabrication,12 we concluded in the Remand Redetermination that the three dock ladder kits at issue each qualify for the finished goods kits exclusion provided by the scope and are not subject to the scope of the Orders.13 asabaliauskas on DSK7TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Timken Notice In its decision in Timken 14 as clarified by Diamond Sawblades, the CAFC has held that, pursuant to sections 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), the Department must publish a notice of a court decision that is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with a Department determination and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a ‘‘conclusive’’ court decision. The CIT’s August 27, 2015, judgment in unassembled in a ‘‘finished goods kit.’’ A finished goods kit is understood to mean 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. See, e.g., Antidumping Duty Order, 76 FR at 30651. 8 See Final Scope Ruling at 8. 9 See Remand Order at 5. 10 Id. 11 See Remand Redetermination at 7–11. 12 See Final Scope Ruling at 8. 13 See Remand Redetermination at 11–12. 14 See Timken, 893 F.2d at 341. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:18 Sep 15, 2015 Jkt 235001 Asia Sourcing sustaining the Department’s decision in the Remand Redetermination finding that ASC’s dock ladder kit models ASE, ASH, and DJX3–W are excluded from the scope of the Orders, constitutes a final decision of that court that is not in harmony with the Department’s Final Scope Ruling. This notice is published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken. Accordingly, the Department will continue the suspension of liquidation of the ASE, ASH, and DJX3– W dock ladder kits at issue pending expiration of the period of appeal or, if appealed, pending a final and conclusive court decision. Amended Final Determination Because there is now a final court decision with respect to the dock ladder kits at issue, the Department amends its Final Scope Ruling. The Department finds that the scope of the Orders does not cover the ASE, ASH, and DJX3–W dock ladder kits addressed in the underlying scope request filed by ASC. The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) that the cash deposit rate will be zero percent for Asia Sourcing’s ASE, ASH, and DJX3–W dock ladder kits. In the event that the CIT’s ruling is not appealed, or if appealed, upheld by the CAFC, the Department will instruct CBP to liquidate any unliquidated entries of ASC’s ASE, ASH, and DJX3–W dock ladder kits without regard to antidumping and/or countervailing duties, and to lift suspension of liquidation of such entries. This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 516A(c)(1) of the Act. Dated: September 8, 2015. Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.

AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:18 Sep 15, 2015 Jkt 235001 On March 9, 2015, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on large residential washers (LRWs) from the Republic of Korea (Korea).1 The review covers three producers/exporters of the subject merchandise: Daewoo Electronics Corporation (Daewoo), LG Electronics, Inc. (LGE), and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (Samsung). The period of review (POR) is August 3, 2012, through January 31, 2014. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the Preliminary Results. After reviewing the comments received and making corrections to the margin calculations, where appropriate, we continue to find that sales of subject merchandise to the United States have been made at prices below normal value. The final dumping margins for the reviewed companies are listed below in the section entitled ‘‘Final Results of the Review.’’ DATES: Effective date: September 16, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: 55595 addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https:// enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed Issues and Decision Memorandum and the electronic version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. The Department conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Scope of the Order The products covered by the order are all large residential washers and certain subassemblies thereof from Korea. The products are currently classifiable under subheadings 8450.20.0040 and 8450.20.0080 of the Harmonized Tariff System of the United States (HTSUS). Products subject to this order may also enter under HTSUS subheadings 8450.11.0040, 8450.11.0080, 8450.90.2000, and 8450.90.6000. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise subject to this scope is dispositive.3 Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues which parties raised and to which we respond in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as Appendix I. Background For a complete description of the events that following the publication of the Preliminary Results, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.2 The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance’s AD and Countervailing Duty (CVD) 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. In Final Results of the Review Based on our analysis of the comments received, we made changes to the weighted-average dumping margin calculation for LGE. No party submitted comments on the Department’s preliminary decision to assign Daewoo and Samsung a margin based on adverse facts available (AFA) for their failure to respond to our request for information.4 As the facts with respect to these two respondents remain the same, we made no changes to the rate assigned to them as AFA in these final results.5 Therefore, we are assigning the following weighted-average dumping 1 See Large Residential Washers From the Republic of Korea: Preliminary Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2012– 2014, 80 FR 12456 (March 9, 2015) (Preliminary Results). 2 See memorandum to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, from Gary Taverman, Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, ‘‘Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Large Residential Washers from the Republic of Korea,’’ dated concurrently with and adopted by this notice (Issues and Decision Memorandum). 3 A full description of the scope of the order is contained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

See Memorandum to The File (MTF) entitled ‘‘Changes to the HTS Numbers to the ACE Case Reference Files for the Antidumping Duty Orders,’’ dated January 6, 2015. 4 See Preliminary Results, 80 FR 12457. 5 This rate equals the AFA rate of 82.41 percent adjusted for export subsidies totaling 3.30 percent assigned to Daewoo in the final determination of the CVD investigation of LRWs from Korea.
