Appendix
Scope of the Investigation
The scope of this investigation covers
freestanding vertical metal file cabinets
containing two or more extendable file
storage elements and having an actual width
of 25 inches or less.
The subject vertical metal file cabinets
have bodies made of carbon and/or alloy
steel and or other metals, regardless of
whether painted, powder coated, or
galvanized or otherwise coated for corrosion
protection or aesthetic appearance. The
subject vertical metal file cabinets must have
two or more extendable elements for file
storage (e.g., file drawers) of a height that
permits hanging files of either letter (8.5″ x
11″) or legal (8.5″ x 14″) sized documents.
An ‘‘extendable element’’ is defined as a
movable load-bearing storage component
including, but not limited to, drawers and
filing frames. Extendable elements typically
have suspension systems, consisting of glide
blocks or ball bearing glides, to facilitate
opening and closing.
The subject vertical metal file cabinets
typically come in models with two, three,
four, or five-file drawers. The inclusion of
one or more additional non-file-sized
extendable storage elements, not sized for
storage files (e.g., box or pencil drawers),
does not remove an otherwise in-scope
product from the scope as long as the
combined height of the non-file-sized
extendable storage elements does not exceed
six inches. The inclusion of an integrated
storage area that is not extendable (e.g., a
cubby) and has an actual height of six inches
or less, also does not remove a subject
vertical metal file cabinet from the scope.
Accessories packaged with a subject vertical
file cabinet, such as separate printer stands
or shelf kits that sit on top of the in-scope
vertical file cabinet are not considered
integrated storage.
‘‘Freestanding’’ means the unit has a solid
top and does not have an open top or a top
with holes punched in it that would permit
the unit to be attached to, hung from, or
otherwise used to support a desktop or other
work surface. The ability to anchor a vertical
file cabinet to a wall for stability or to
prevent it from tipping over does not exclude
the unit from the scope.
The addition of mobility elements such as
casters, wheels, or a dolly does not remove
the product from the scope. Packaging a
subject vertical metal file cabinet with other
accessories, including, but not limited to,
locks, leveling glides, caster kits, drawer
accessories (e.g., including but not limited to
follower wires, follower blocks, file
compressors, hanger rails, pencil trays, and
hanging file folders), printer stand, shelf kit
and magnetic hooks, also does not remove
the product from the scope. Vertical metal
file cabinets are also in scope whether they
are imported assembled or unassembled with
all essential parts and components included.
Excluded from the scope are lateral metal
file cabinets. Lateral metal file cabinets have
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
a width that is greater than the body depth,
and have a body with an actual width that
is more than 25 inches wide.
Also excluded from the scope are pedestal
file cabinets. Pedestal file cabinets are metal
file cabinets with body depths that are greater
than or equal to their width, are under 31
inches in actual height, and have the
following characteristics: (1) An open top or
other the means for the cabinet to be attached
to or hung from a desktop or other work
surface such as holes punched in the top (i.e.,
not freestanding); or (2) freestanding file
cabinets that have all of the following: (a) At
least a 90 percent drawer extension for all
extendable file storage elements; (b) a central
locking system; (c) a minimum weight
density of 9.5 lbs./cubic foot; and (d) casters
or leveling glides.
‘‘Percentage drawer extension’’ is
defined.as the drawer travel distance divided
by the inside depth dimension of the drawer.
Inside depth of drawer is measured from the
inside of the drawer face to the inside face
of the drawer back. Drawer extension is the
distance the drawer travels from the closed
position to the maximum travel position
which is limited by the out stops. In
situations where drawers do not include an
outstop, the drawer is extended until the
drawer back is 3-l/2 inches from the closed
position of inside face of the drawer front.
The ‘‘weight density’’ is calculated by
dividing the cabinet’s actual weight by its
volume in cubic feet (the multiple of the
product’s actual width, depth, and height). A
‘‘central locking system’’ locks all drawers in
a unit.
Also excluded from the scope are fire proof
or fire-resistant file cabinets that meet
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) fire
protection standard 72, class 350, which
covers the test procedures applicable to fireresistant equipment intended to protect
paper records.
The merchandise subject to the
investigation is classified under Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
subheading 9403.10.0020. The subject
merchandise may also enter under HTSUS
subheadings 9403.10.0040, 9403.20.0080,
and 9403.20.0090. While HTSUS
subheadings are provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written
description of the scope of the investigation
is dispositive.

CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends
to issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 7, 2019, Commerce
terminated the 2013 Suspension
Agreement 1 on fresh tomatoes from
Mexico and continued the LTFV
investigation of fresh tomatoes from
Mexico.2 The original period of
investigation was March 1, 1995
through February 29, 1996. Due to the
unusual procedural posture of this
proceeding, in which we terminated a
suspension agreement and continued an
investigation that covers a period of
investigation that dates back more than
23 years, Commerce determined to
request information corresponding to
the most recent four full quarters, i.e.,
April 1, 2018 through March 31, 2019.3
Based on the unusual procedural
posture, we also found it appropriate to
reconsider respondent selection.4 On
May 24, 2019, we selected Bioparques
de Occidente, S.A. de C.V. (Bioparques),
Ceuta Produce, S.A. de C.V. (Ceuta), and
Negocio Agricola San Enrique, S.A. de
C.V. (San Enrique) for individual
examination in this continued
investigation.5 On July 23, 2019,
Commerce issued the post-preliminary
decision based on the information
requested from, and provided by,
Bioparques, Ceuta, and San Enrique.6
Commerce received case and rebuttal
briefs on August 30, 2019, and
September 4, 2019, respectively.7
