SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department published the Diamond Sawblades Orders on November 
4, 2009, pursuant to instructions from the U.S. Court of International 
Trade (``CIT'').\1\ In the Diamond Sawblades Orders, the Department 
stated that the orders covering diamond sawblades from Korea and the 
PRC are effective as of

[[Page 970]]

January 23, 2009, because this is the date that suspension of 
liquidation went into effect for all subject entries of diamond 
sawblades, pursuant to the January 22, 2009, notification from the 
United States International Trade Commission (``ITC'') that the CIT had 
sustained the ITC's redetermination of threat of material injury.\2\ 
The Department provides a complete description of the sequence of 
events leading up to the issuance of the orders in the Diamond 
Sawblades Orders with references provided for the relevant decisions 
and notices issued by the ITC, the Department, and the CIT.

States, Nos. 06-247, 09-110, Slip Op. 09-107 (CIT Sept. 30, 2009).

Anniversary Month of the Orders

    Although the effective date of the orders is January 23, 2009, 
based on the date of the suspension of liquidation, the Department 
designates November as the anniversary month for these diamond 
sawblades orders because this is the month in which the Department 
published the notice for these orders. In its regulations, the 
Department defines the anniversary month as the calendar month in which 
the anniversary of the date of publication of an order or suspension of 
investigation occurs. See 19 CFR 351.102(b). Therefore, consistent with 
section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(b), the first opportunity to request a review of the above-
referenced orders will be in November 2010.

    Dated: December 29, 2009.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
