Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 223 / Monday, November 21, 2022 / Notices
under a specific segment type called
‘‘AISL-Annual Inquiry Service List.’’ 14
Interested parties who wish to be
added to the annual inquiry service list
for an order must submit an entry of
appearance to the annual inquiry
service list segment for the order in
ACCESS within 30 days after the date of
publication of the order. For ease of
administration, Commerce requests that
law firms with more than one attorney
representing interested parties in an
order designate a lead attorney to be
included on the annual inquiry service
list. Commerce will finalize the annual
inquiry service list within five business
days thereafter. As mentioned in the
Procedural Guidance, the new annual
inquiry service list will be in place until
the following year, when the
Opportunity Notice for the anniversary
month of the order is published.
Commerce may update an annual
inquiry service list at any time as
needed based on interested parties’
amendments to their entries of
appearance to remove or otherwise
modify their list of members and
representatives, or to update contact
information. Any changes or
announcements pertaining to these
procedures will be posted to the
ACCESS website at https://
access.trade.gov.
Special Instructions for Petitioners and
Foreign Governments
In the Final Rule, Commerce stated
that, ‘‘after an initial request and
placement on the annual inquiry service
list, both petitioners and foreign
governments will automatically be
placed on the annual inquiry service list
in the years that follow.’’ 15
Accordingly, as stated above, the
petitioners and foreign governments
should submit their initial entry of
appearance after publication of this
notice in order to appear in the first
annual inquiry service list. Pursuant to
19 CFR 351.225(n)(3), the petitioners
and foreign governments will not need
to resubmit their entries of appearance
each year to continue to be included on
the annual inquiry service list.
However, the petitioners and foreign
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
14 This
segment will be combined with the
ACCESS Segment Specific Information (SSI) field,
which will display the month in which the notice
of the order or suspended investigation was
published in the Federal Register, also known as
the anniversary month. For example, for an order
under case number A–000–000 that published in
the Federal Register in January, the relevant
segment and SSI combination will appear in
ACCESS as ‘‘AISL-January Anniversary.’’ Note that
there will be only one annual inquiry service list
segment per case number, and the anniversary
month will be pre-populated in ACCESS.

People’s Republic of China (China)
A–570–135 and C–570–136: Certain
Chassis and Subassemblies Thereof
From China
Requestor: Trans Texas Tire LLC.
Wheel caps are not covered by the scope
of the antidumping duty (AD) order on
certain chassis and subassemblies
thereof from China because these
components are not used for further
assembly with a finished or unfinished
chassis and are utilized solely for
marine trailers, utility trailers, and
recreational vehicles; July 6, 2022.
A–570–106 and C–570–107: Wooden
Cabinets and Vanities and Components
Thereof From China
Requestor: AYC LLC. Chloe Styling
Station is not covered by the scope of
these orders because this product is a
freestanding cabinet that is not for
permanent installation. The scope of the
orders covers wooden cabinets and
vanities that are for permanent
installation. Therefore, Chloe Styling
Station is outside the scope of the
orders. Further, Sanden Shampoo
Cabinet (AYC Styling Station) is covered
by the scope of the orders because this
product requires permanent installation
by attachment of plumbing and, thus,
falls within the scope as a cabinet for
permanent installation; August 1, 2022.

A–570–922: Raw Flexible Magnets From
China
Requestor: Fasteners for Retail, Inc.
dba Siffron. Siffron’s plastic shelf
dividers are outside the scope of the AD
order on raw flexible magnets from
China because the raw flexible magnet
component of the plastic shelf dividers

a component plastic blade, and the
order only pertains to flexible magnets.
Therefore, Siffron’s plastic shelf divider
is not within the scope of the order;
August 9, 2022.

Requestor: RV Print Factory LLC (RV
Print). Certain polyester fabrics coated

further processed in and exported from
Vietnam. Preliminarily found that SSSS
produced in China that meets all
