Suspension Agreements 

None. 

In accordance with section 351.213(b) 

of the regulations, an interested party as 

defined by section 771(9) of the Act, 

may request in writing that the 

Secretary conduct an administrative 

review. For both antidumping and 

countervailing duty reviews, the 

interested party must specify the 

individual producers or exporters 

covered by an antidumping finding or 

an antidumping or countervailing duty 

order or suspension agreement for 

which it is requesting a review, and the 

requesting party must state why it 

desires the Secretary to review those 

particular producers or exporters. If the 

interested party intends for the 

Secretary to review sales of merchandise 

by an exporter (or a producer if that 

producer also exports merchandise from 

other suppliers) which were produced 

in more than one country of origin and 

each country of origin is subject to a 

separate order, then the interested party 

must state specifically, on an order-byorder basis, which exporter(s) the 

request is intended to cover. 

As explained in Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 69 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department 

has clarified its practice with respect to 

the collection of final antidumping 

duties on imports of merchandise where 

intermediate firms are involved. The 

public should be aware of this 

clarification in determining whether to 

request an administrative review of 

merchandise subject to antidumping 

findings and orders. See also the Import 

Administration Web site at http://

www.ia.ita.doc.gov.

Six copies of the request should be 

submitted to the Assistant Secretary for 

Import Administration, International 

Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S. 

Department of Commerce, 14th Street & 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC 20230. The Department also asks 

parties to serve a copy of their requests 

to the Office of Antidumping/

Countervailing Enforcement, Attention: 

Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of the main 

Commerce Building. Further, in 

accordance with section 351.303(f)(l)(i) 

of the regulations, 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 Administrative Review of 

Antidumping or Countervailing Duty 

Order, Finding, or Suspended 

Investigation’’ for requests received by 

the last day of February 2004. If the 

Department does not receive, by the last 

day of February 2004, a request for 

review of entries covered by an order, 

finding, or suspended investigation 

listed in this notice and for the period 

identified above, the Department will 

instruct the Customs Service to assess 

antidumping or countervailing duties on 

those entries at a rate equal to the cash 

deposit of (or bond for) estimated 

antidumping or countervailing 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.

the third administrative review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On July 2, 2003, the Department 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of the opportunity to request an 

administrative review in the above-cited 

segment of the antidumping duty 

proceeding (see 68 FR 39511). We 

received a timely filed request for 

review of Jilin and Shandong Xinhua 

Pharmaceutical Factory, Ltd. 

(‘‘Shandong’’) from Rhodia, Inc. 

(‘‘Rhodia’’), the petitioner in this case. 

On August 22, 2003, we initiated an 

administrative review of Jilin and 

Shandong (68 FR 50750).

On January 5, 2004, Rhodia withdrew 

its request for review of Jilin. Although 

this withdrawal was received by the 

Department after the regulatory deadline 

of November 20, 2003, 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1) permits the Department to 

extend the deadline if ‘‘it is reasonable 

to do so.’’ Because the petitioner was 

the only party to request the review, we 

find it is reasonable to extend the 

deadline to withdraw the review 

request.

Partial Rescission of Antidumping 

Administrative Review

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding the 

administrative review with respect to 

Jilin.

Shandong remains a respondent in 

this administrative review.

Assessment

The Department will instruct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) 

to assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries. For Jilin, from July 

1, 2002 through September 29, 2002, 

antidumping duties shall be assessed at 

rates equal to the cash deposit of 

estimated antidumping duties required 

at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 

warehouse, for consumption, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(c)(1)(i).

Pursuant to a final court decision, 

which excluded Jilin from the order 

effective September 30, 2002, entries of 

subject merchandise from Jilin, entered 

or withdrawn from the warehouse on or 

after September 30, 2002, have been 

liquidated without regard to 

antidumping duties. See Bulk Aspirin 

From the People’s Republic of China: 

Notice of Amended Final Determination 

and Amended Order Pursuant to Final 

Court Decision, 68 FR 75208 (December 

30, 2003)(‘‘Amended Order’’).

The Department will issue 

appropriate assessment instructions 

directly to the CBP within 15 days of 

publication of this notice.

Cash Deposit Rates

As mentioned above in the 

assessment section of this notice, 

because Jilin is excluded from the order 

effective September 30, 2002 (see 

Amended Order), no cash deposit is 

required from Jilin.

Notification to Importers

This notice serves as a reminder to 

importers of their responsibility under 

19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of 

antidumping duties prior to liquidation 

of the relevant entries during this 

review period. Failure to comply with 

this requirement could result in the 

Secretary’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of doubled antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding APOs

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective orders (‘‘APOs’’) of their 

responsibility concerning the return or 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 

to govern business proprietary 

information in this segment of the 

proceeding. Timely written notification 

of the return/destruction of APO 

materials or conversion to judicial 

protective order is hereby requested. 

Failure to comply with the regulations 

and terms of an APO is a violation 

which is subject to sanction.

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with section 777(i) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended and 19 

CFR 351.213(d)(4).

Dated: January 28, 2004.

Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Preliminary Determination

We preliminarily determine that floorstanding, metal-top ironing tables and 

certain parts thereof (ironing tables) 

from the People’s Republic of China 

(PRC) are being sold, or are likely to be 

sold, in the United States at less than 

fair value (LTFV), as provided in section 

773 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). The estimated 

margins of sales at LTFV are shown in 

the ‘‘Suspension of Liquidation’’ section 

of this notice.

Case History

This investigation was initiated on 

July 21, 2003. See Notice of Initiation of 

Antidumping Investigation: FloorStanding, Metal-Top Ironing Tables and 

Certain Parts Thereof from the People’s 

Republic of China, 68 FR 44040 (July 25, 

2003) (Initiation Notice).1 Since the 

initiation of the investigation, the 

following events have occurred.

On August 14, 2003, the United States 

International Trade Commission (ITC) 

preliminarily determined that there is a 

reasonable indication that an industry 

in the United States is materially 

injured by reason of imports of ironing 

tables from the PRC. See Ironing Tables 

and Certain Parts Thereof From China, 

68 FR 50190 (August 20, 2003).
