Empirical Concepts developed the
DARRP indirect rates for FY 2016 and

Direct Labor Cost Base is the most
appropriate indirect allocation method
for the development of the FY 2016 and
2017 indirect cost rates.

question, costs will be recalculated
using the revised rates in this policy for
these fiscal years. Where a responsible
party has agreed to pay costs using
previous year’s indirect rates, but has
not yet made the payment because the

the costs will not be recalculated.

Uncovered Innerspring Units From the
People’s Republic of China, South

Duty Orders
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: As a result of the
determinations by the Department of
Commerce (Commerce) and the
International Trade Commission (ITC)
that revocation of the antidumping duty
orders on uncovered innerspring units
(innersprings) from the People’s
Republic of China (China), South Africa,
and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam
(Vietnam), would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, Commerce is publishing
a notice of continuation of the
antidumping duty orders.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Background
On March 1, 2019, Commerce
published the initiation of the second
five-year (sunset) reviews of the
antidumping duty orders on uncovered
innerspring units from China, South
Africa, and Vietnam, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act),
as amended.1 Commerce received
notices of intent to participate in these
sunset reviews from Leggett & Platt,
Incorporated (the domestic interested
party), within the 15-day period
specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).
The domestic interested party claimed
interested party status under section
771(9)(C) of the Act as a producer of the
domestic like product.
Commerce received an adequate
substantive response to the Notice of
Initiation from the domestic interested
party within the 30-day period specified
in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). Commerce
received no substantive response from
any respondent interested parties. In
accordance with section 751(c)(3)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce
conducted expedited (120-day) sunset
reviews of the antidumping duty orders
on uncovered innerspring units from
China, South Africa, and Vietnam.2
As a result of its review, Commerce
determined, pursuant to section
751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the Act, that
revocation of the Orders would likely
lead to a continuation or recurrence of
dumping.3 Commerce, therefore,
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
dumping margins likely to prevail
should the Orders be revoked. On
October 3, 2019, the ITC published its
determination, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the
antidumping duty orders on
innersprings from China, South Africa
and Vietnam would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time.4

Scope of the Orders
The merchandise covered by these
Orders are uncovered innerspring units
composed of a series of individual metal
springs joined together in sizes
corresponding to the sizes of adult
mattresses (e.g., twin, twin long, full,
full long, queen, California king, and
king) and units used in smaller
constructions, such as crib and youth
mattresses. All uncovered innerspring
units are included in this scope
regardless of width and length. Included
within this definition are innersprings
typically ranging from 30.5 inches to 76
inches in width and 68 inches to 84
inches in length. Innersprings for crib
mattresses typically range from 25
inches to 27 inches in width and 50
inches to 52 inches in length.
Uncovered innerspring units are
suitable for use as the innerspring
component in the manufacture of
innerspring mattresses, including
mattresses that incorporate a foam
encasement around the innerspring.
Pocketed and non-pocketed
innerspring units are included in this
definition. Non-pocketed innersprings
are typically joined together with helical
wire and border rods. Non-pocketed
innersprings are included in this
definition regardless of whether they
have border rods attached to the
perimeter of the innerspring. Pocketed
innersprings are individual coils
covered by a ‘‘pocket’’ or ‘‘sock’’ of a
nonwoven synthetic material or woven
material and then glued together in a
linear fashion.
Uncovered innersprings are classified
under subheading 9404.29.9010 and
have also been classified under
subheadings 9404.10.0000,
7326.20.0070, 7320.20.5010, or
7320.90.5010 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
On January 11, 2011, Commerce
included HTSUS classification numbers
9404.29.9005 and 9404.29.9011 to the
customs case reference file, pursuant to
a request by U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP). On January 7, 2013,
Commerce included the HTSUS
classification 7326.20.0071 number to
the customs case reference file, pursuant
to a request by CBP. The HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes
only; the written description of the
scope of the Orders is dispositive.
Continuation of the Orders
As a result of the determinations by
Commerce and the ITC that revocation
of the Orders would likely lead to a
TA–1140–1142 (Second Review), 84 FR 52896
(October 3, 2019).
