Department of Commerce September 12, 2016 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of Commerce (``Department'') is conducting the sixth administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain steel nails (``nails'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''). The Department preliminarily determines that Stanley Works (Langfang) Fastening Systems Co., Ltd. and Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (collectively ``Stanley'') sold subject merchandise in the United States at prices below normal value (``NV'') during the period of review (``POR''), August 1, 2014, through July 31, 2015. The Department also preliminarily determines that Tianjin Lianda Group Co., Ltd. (``Tianjin Lianda'') failed to demonstrate that it is entitled to a separate rate and has been treated as part of the PRC-wide entity. If these preliminary results are adopted in the final results, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.

The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') has received requests to conduct administrative reviews of various antidumping and countervailing duty orders and findings with July anniversary dates. In accordance with the Department's regulations, we are initiating those administrative reviews.

On March 10, 2016, the Department of Commerce (the ``Department'') published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on uncovered innerspring units (``innersprings'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'').

The period of review (``POR'') is February 1, 2014, through January 31, 2015. The final weighted-average dumping margins are listed below in the ``Final Results of Review'' section of this notice.
