International Trade Administration July 14, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

After initiating a review of the antidumping duty order on certain hot-rolled carbon steel flat products from India covering the period December 1, 2004, through November 30, 2005, the sole respondent, Essar Steel Ltd., claimed it did not ship subject merchandise to the United States during the period of review (POR). Based on record evidence consistent with this claim, the Department of Commerce intends to rescind the instant administrative review.

The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is conducting the eighteenth administrative review of the antidumping duty order on tapered roller bearings and parts thereof, finished or unfinished, (``TRBs'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''), covering the period June 1, 2004, through May 31, 2005. We have preliminary determined that sales have not been made below normal value by China National Machinery Import & Export Corporation (``CMC''). If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to assess to antidumping duties on entries of subject merchandise exported by CMC during the period of review (``POR''). We are also preliminary rescinding the review with respect to four exporters because none of these respondents made shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. We intend to issue the final results no later than 120 days from the date of publication of this notice.
