SUMMARY: On August 26, 2016, the

Trade (CIT or Court) sustained the
Department of Commerce’s
(Department) final results of
redetermination in which the
Department determined, under protest,
that Whirlpool Corporation’s
(Whirlpool) kitchen appliance door
handles with plastic end caps (handles
with end caps) are not covered by the
scope of the antidumping (AD) and
countervailing duty (CVD) orders on
aluminum extrusions from the People’s
Republic of China.

Background

On August 4, 2014, the Department
issued a final scope ruling in which it
determined that two types of kitchen
appliance door handles imported by
Whirlpool are within the scope of the
Orders 1 and did not meet the scope
exclusion for ‘‘finished merchandise’’ or
‘‘finished goods kits.’’ 2 Whirlpool
challenged the Department’s final scope
ruling at the CIT.

Jkt 238001
On February 1, 2016, in Whirlpool I
the Court issued an opinion and order
sustaining the Department’s findings in
the original scope ruling that
Whirlpool’s kitchen appliance door
handles consisting of a single piece of
extruded aluminum are within the
scope of the Orders based on a plain
reading of the scope language.3
However, the Court remanded the
Department’s determination that the
scope of the Orders covers handles
consisting of a single piece of aluminum
extrusion with plastic end caps fastened
on with screws. The Court found that
the general language of the scope did
not support the Department’s
determination.4 The Court further found
that, assuming arguendo that
Whirlpool’s handles with end caps were
covered by the general scope language,
the Department erred in finding that the
products did not satisfy the ‘‘finished
merchandise’’ exclusion.5
On April 18, 2016, the Department
issued its Final Results of
Redetermination, in which it found that
although it respectfully disagreed with
the Court that Whirlpool’s handles with
end caps were not covered by the
general scope language, it found under
protest that Whirlpool’s handles with
end caps were outside the scope of the
Orders.6 As a result, the Department did
not consider whether Whirlpool’s
handles with end caps were subject to
the exclusion for ‘‘finished
merchandise.’’ 7
On August 26, 2016, in Whirlpool II
the Court sustained the Department’s
finding in the Final Results of
Redetermination that Whirlpool’s
handles with plastic end caps are not
covered by the scope of the Orders.8
Consistent with the decision of the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit (Federal Circuit) in
Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d
337 (Fed. Cir. 1990) (Timken), as
clarified by Diamond Sawblades Mfrs.
Coalition v. United States, 626 F.3d
1374 (CAFC 2010) (Diamond
Sawblades), the Department is notifying
the public that the final judgment in this
case is not in harmony with the
Department’s final scope ruling and is
amending the final scope ruling to find

that the handles with end caps imported
by Whirlpool are not covered by the
scope of the Orders.
Timken Notice
In its decision in Timken, 893 F.2d at
341, as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,
the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant
to section 516A(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 26, 2016, judgment in
Whirlpool II sustaining the Department’s
finding in the Final Results of
Redetermination that Whirlpool’s
handles with end caps are not covered
by the scope of the Orders constitutes a
final decision of the Court that is not in
harmony with the Whirlpool Kitchen
Appliance Door Handles Scope Ruling.
This notice is published in fulfillment
of the publication requirements of
Timken. Accordingly, the Department
will continue the suspension of
liquidation of Whirlpool’s handles with
end caps at issue pending expiration of
the period for appeal or, if appealed,
pending a final and conclusive court
decision.
Amended Final Scope Ruling
Because there is now a final court
decision with respect to the Whirlpool
Kitchen Appliance Door Handles Scope
Ruling, the Department amends its final
scope ruling and finds that the scope of
the Orders does not cover Whirlpool’s
handles with end caps. The Department
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) that the cash deposit
rate will be zero percent for Whirlpool’s
handles with end caps. In the event the
CIT’s ruling is not appealed, or if
appealed, upheld by the Federal Circuit,
the Department will instruct CBP to
liquidate entries of Whirlpool’s handles
with end caps 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.
