Assessment Rates 

The Department shall determine, and 

CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 

all appropriate entries. Because we are 

relying on total AFA to establish G Steel 

and G J Steel’s dumping margin, we will 

instruct CBP to apply a dumping margin 

of 20.30 percent ad valorem to all 

entries of subject merchandise during 

the POR that was produced and/or 

exported by G Steel and G J Steel 

(formerly known as Nakornthai Strip 

Mill Public Company Limited). The 

Department intends to issue instructions 

to CBP 15 days after the publication of 

the final results of review. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

If these preliminary results are 

adopted in the final results of review, 

the following deposit requirements will 

be effective upon completion of the final 

results of this administrative review for 

all shipments of the subject 

merchandise entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after the publication of the final results 

of this administrative review, as 

provided in section 751(a)(1) of the Act: 

(1) the cash–deposit rate for G Steel and 

G J Steel (formerly known as Nakornthai 

Strip Mill Public Company Limited) 

will be the rate established in the final 

results of this review; (2) for previously 

reviewed or investigated companies not 

covered in this review, the cash–deposit 

rate will continue to be the company– 

specific rate published for the most 

recent period; (3) if the exporter is not 

a firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the less–than-fair–value 

(LTFV) investigation but the 

manufacturer is, the cash–deposit rate 

will be the rate established for the most 

recent period for the manufacturer of 

the subject merchandise; (4) if neither 

the exporter nor the manufacturer is a 

firm covered in this or any previous 

segment of the proceeding, the cash– 

deposit rate will continue to be the all– 

others rate established in the LTFV 

investigation which is 4.44 percent. See 

Antidumping Duty Order. These cash– 

deposit requirements, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a preliminary 

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 double antidumping duties. The 

preliminary results of administrative 

review and this notice are issued and 

published in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. 

Dated: July 29, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On April 10, 2009, the Department of 

Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published 

the preliminary results of administrative 

review of purified 

carboxymethylcellulose from Mexico for 

the July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2008, 

period of review. See Purified 

Carboxymethylcellulose From Mexico: 

Notice of Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 74 FR 16359 (April 10, 2009). 

The final results for this administrative 

review are currently due no later than 

August 8, 2009. 

Extension of Time Limits for 

Preliminary Results 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), 

requires the Department to complete the 

final results of an administrative review 

within 120 days after the date on which 

the preliminary results are published. 

However, if it is not practicable to 

complete the review within these time 

periods, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 

allows the Department to extend the 120 

day time period for the final results to 

180 days. 

The Department has determined it is 

not practicable to complete this review 

within the statutory time limit because 

of significant issues that require 

additional time to evaluate. These 

include questions involving entry dates 

and entered values, necessitating a 

post–preliminary supplemental 

questionnaire. Accordingly, the 

Department is extending the time limit 

for completion of the final results of this 

administrative review until no later than 

October 7, 2009, which is 180 days after 

the date on which the preliminary 

results of review were published.

Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils 

From Taiwan: Preliminary Results and 

Rescission in Part of Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) is conducting an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on stainless 

steel sheet and strip in coils (SSSSC) 

from Taiwan with respect to three 

companies. Only one respondent, Chia 

Far Industrial Factory Co., Ltd. (Chia 

Far), is participating in this review; the 

remaining two companies reported that 

they had no shipments of subject 

merchandise during the period of 

review (POR). The POR is July 1, 2007, 

through June 30, 2008. 

We preliminarily determine that Chia 

Far made sales below normal value 

(NV). Moreover, we are preliminarily 

rescinding the review with respect to 

the companies that submitted noshipment responses. 

If the preliminary results are adopted 

in our final results of this administrative 

review, we will instruct U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. Interested parties are invited to 

comment on the preliminary results. 

DATES: Effective Date: August 5, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On July 27, 1999, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on SSSSC from 

Taiwan. See Notice of Antidumping 

Duty Order; Stainless Steel Sheet and 

Strip in Coils From United Kingdom, 

Taiwan, and South Korea, 64 FR 40555 

(July 27, 1999) (SSSSC Order). On July 

11, 2008, the Department published in 

the Federal Register a notice of 

opportunity to request administrative 

review of this order. See Antidumping 

or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, 

or Suspended Investigation; 

Opportunity to Request Administrative 

Review, 73 FR 39948 (July 11, 2008). 

On July 31, 2008, the petitioners 1

submitted a timely request for the 

Department to conduct an 

administrative review of the sales of 

SSSSC made during the POR by the 

following 20 companies: Chain Chon 

Industrial Co., Ltd.; Chia Far; Chien 

Shing Stainess Co.; China Steel 

Corporation; Dah Shi Metal Industrial 

Co., Ltd.; Emerdex Group; Emerdex 

Stainless Flat-Rolled Products, Inc.; 

Emerdex Stainless Steel, Inc.; KNS 

Enterprise Co., Ltd.; Lih Chan Steel Co., 

Ltd.; Maytun International Corp.; PFP 

Taiwan Co., Ltd.; Shih Yuan Stainess 

Steel Enterprise Co., Ltd.; Ta Chen 

Stainless Pipe Co., Ltd. (Ta Chen); Tang 

Eng Iron Works; Waterson Corp.; Well 

Harvest Metal Co., Ltd.; Yieh Loong 

Enterprise Co., Ltd. (aka Chung Hung 

Steel Co., Ltd.); Yieh Mau Corp.; and 

Yieh United Steel Corporation 

(YUSCO), pursuant to section 751(a) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act), and in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(b)(1). 

In August 2008, the Department 

published a notice of initiation of 

administrative review covering each of 

these 20 companies. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews, 73 FR 50308, 

50309 (Aug. 26, 2008) (Initiation 

Notice). 

In our initiation notice we indicated 

that we would select mandatory 

respondents for review based upon CBP 

entry data. See Initiation Notice, 73 FR 

at 50308. In September 2008, we 

released relevant CBP data to interested 

parties, and we received comments on 

the issue of respondent selection from 

the petitioners. Also in that month we 

received a statement from Ta Chen 

indicating that it had no shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. 

Also in September 2008, the 

petitioners withdrew their request for 

administrative review with respect to 

the following 17 companies: Chain 

Chon Industrial Co., Ltd.; Chien Shing 

Stainess Co.; China Steel Corporation; 

Dah Shi Metal Industrial Co., Ltd.; 

Emerdex Group; Emerdex Stainless FlatRolled Products, Inc.; Emerdex Stainless 

Steel, Inc.; KNS Enterprise Co., Ltd.; Lih 

Chan Steel Co., Ltd.; Maytun 

International Corp.; PFP Taiwan Co., 

Ltd.; Shih Yuan Stainess Steel 

Enterprise Co., Ltd.; Tang Eng Iron 

Works; Waterson Corp.; Well Harvest 

Metal Co., Ltd.; Yieh Loong Enterprise 

Co., Ltd. (aka Chung Hung Steel Co., 

Ltd.); and Yieh Mau Corp. 

In October 2008, the Department 

issued the antidumping duty 

questionnaire to two remaining 

respondents, Chia Far and YUSCO, and 

we issued a letter to Ta Chen requesting 

additional information regarding its noshipment statement. Ta Chen responded 

to our request in the same month by 

providing the requested information. 

Also in October 2008, YUSCO provided 

a statement indicating that it had no 

shipments of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. For 

further discussion, see the ‘‘Partial 

Rescission of Review’’ section of this 

notice. 

Subsequent to Ta Chen’s October 

response, the petitioners alleged that Ta 

Chen was engaged in middleman 

dumping of merchandise produced by 

Tung Mung Development Co. (Tung 

Mung), a Taiwanese producer of SSSSC 

which is excluded from the order. See 

Notice of Correction to the Amended 

Final Determination in Accordance 

With Court Decision in the Antidumping 

Duty Investigation of Stainless Steel 

Sheet and Strip in Coils From Taiwan, 

70 FR 17658 (April 7, 2005). In 

November 2008, Ta Chen denied the 

petitioners’ allegations, stating that Ta 

Chen International (TCI), a U.S. affiliate 

of Ta Chen, purchased and imported the 

SSSSC directly from Tung Mung and 

consequently that Ta Chen did not act 

as a middleman in these transactions. 

For further discussion, see the 

‘‘Middleman Dumping’’ section of this 

notice. 

During the period October through 

December 2008, we received Chia Far’s 

responses to sections A through D of the 

questionnaire. 

In December 2008, we issued a 

supplemental questionnaire covering 

section D of the questionnaire (i.e., the 

section covering cost of production 

(COP)). Chia Far responded to this 

supplemental questionnaire in January 

2009. 

In March 2009, we published a notice 

extending the time limit for completion 

of the preliminary results. See Stainless 

Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils from 

Japan and Taiwan: Notice of Extension 

of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of
