Vol. 60 No. 127 Monday, July 3, 1995 p 34517 (Notice) 1/129 ---- page 34517 ---- [A-401-603; A-401-206] Welded Stainless Steel Hollow Products From Sweden; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. ACTION: Notice of opportunity to request administrative review of antidumping duty order. BACKGROUND: On October 9, 1987, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published in the Federal Register the final determination of its investigation of sales at less-than-fair-value (LTFV) of stainless steel hollow products (SSHP) from Sweden (52 FR 37810). On November 25, 1987, the International Trade Commission (ITC) published its final determination, in which it found that imports of seamless SSHP were causing material injury to the U.S. industry, but that imports of welded SSHP were not causing injury, or threatening to cause injury, to the U.S. industry (52 FR 45246). Therefore, on December 3, 1987, the Department published an antidumping duty order covering only seamless SSHP from Sweden (A-401-603). Subsequently, the domestic producers of SSHP challenged the ITC's negative determination with respect to imports of welded SSHP before the Court of International Trade (CIT). On June 20, 1990, the CIT remanded the determination to the ITC. Upon remand, the ITC determined that the U.S. industry was materially injured by imports of welded SSHP from Sweden. The CIT affirmed the ITC's redetermination on November 27, 1990. Accordingly, the Department published in the Federal Register a notification of the CIT's decision, and instructions, effective December 7, 1990, to suspend the liquidation of entries of welded SSHP from Sweden (55 FR 51745, December 17, 1990). Following the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit's (CAFC) affirmation of the CIT's decision, the ITC published its final affirmative determination of injury for the antidumping duty investigation of welded SSHP from Sweden (57 FR 42761). Subsequently, the Department published an amended antidumping duty order for SSHP from Sweden on November 5, 1992 (57 FR 52761) in order to include welded, along with seamless, SSHP in the scope of the order. The Department is now issuing an opportunity notice for interested parties, as defined in section 771(9) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, to request, in accordance with section 353.22 of the Department's regulations (1993), that the Department conduct administrative reviews of the antidumping duty order on welded SSHP for the periods December 7, 1990 through November 30, 1991, and December 1, 1991 through November 30, 1992. Additionally, since the Department considers welded and seamless SSHP to be a single class or kind of merchandise, we are disregarding the separate case number (A-401-206) under which the Department instructed the Customs Service (Customs) to suspend liquidation of entries of welded SSHP and have instructed Customs to suspend the liquidation of all entries of SSHP under the original case number (A-401-603). Furthermore, since we intend to conduct any administrative reviews requested as a result of this notice under the original case number (A-401-603), all requests for administrative reviews should be filed under this case number. OPPORTUNITY TO REQUEST A REVIEW: Not later than July 31, 1995, interested parties may request administrative reviews of the following order for the following periods: Â Antidumping duty proceedings ³ Period Å ³ SWEDEN: Stainless Steel Welded Hollow Products (A-401- ³ 12/07/90-11/30/91 603). ³ SWEDEN: Stainless Steel Welded Hollow Products (A-401- ³ 12/01/91-11/30/92 603). ³ Á In accordance with sections 353.22(a) of the regulations, an interested party as defined by section 353.2(k) may request in writing that the Secretary conduct an administrative review. The interested party must specify for which individual producers or resellers covered by an antidumping finding or order it is requesting a review, and must state why it desires the Secretary to review those particular producers or resellers. Seven copies of the request should be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Room B-099, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230. The Department also asks parties to serve a copy of their requests to the Office of Antidumping Compliance, Attention: John Kugelman, in room 3065 of the main Commerce Building. Further, in accordance with section 353.3l(g), a copy of each request must be served on every party on the Department's service list. The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of ``Initiation of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review,'' for requests received by July 31, 1995. If the Department does not receive, by July 31, 1995, a request for review of entries covered by the order listed in this notice and for the period identified above, the Department will instruct Customs to assess antidumping duties on those entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or bond for) estimated antidumping duties required on those entries at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption and to continue to collect the cash deposit previously ordered. This notice is not required by statute, but is published as a service to the international trading community. Dated: June 22, 1995. Joseph A. Spetrini, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
