SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Department of Commerce (the 

Department) published an antidumping 

duty order on ball bearings and parts 

thereof from France on May 15, 1989. 

See Antidumping Duty Orders: Ball 

Bearings, Cylindrical Roller Bearings, 

Spherical Plain Bearings, and Parts 

Thereof from France, 54 FR 20902 (May 

15, 1989). 

On August 21, 2009, SNR Roulements 

S.A. (SNR) requested that, because NTN 

Bearing Corporation of America (NBCA) 

acquired a 51-percent interest in SNR, 

the Department initiate a changedcircumstances review to determine 

whether post-acquisition SNR is the 

successor-in-interest to pre-acquisition 

SNR. 

No other party has submitted 

comments. 

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by the order are 

ball bearings and parts thereof. These 

products include all antifriction 

bearings that employ balls as the rolling 

element. Imports of these products are 

classified under the following 

categories: Antifriction balls, ball 

bearings with integral shafts, ball 

bearings (including radial ball bearings) 

and parts thereof, and housed or 

mounted ball bearing units and parts 

thereof. 

Imports of these products are 

classified under the following

Although the HTSUS item numbers 

above are provided for convenience and 

customs purposes, the written

Initiation of Changed-Circumstances 

Review 

Pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act), as amended, 

and 19 CFR 351.216, the Department 

will conduct a changed-circumstances 

review upon receipt of information 

concerning, or a request from an 

interested party for a review of, an 

antidumping duty order which shows 

changed circumstances sufficient to 

warrant a review of the order. SNR 

claims that it has satisfied the criteria to 

warrant such a review. We agree that the 

information submitted by SNR 

demonstrates changed circumstances 

sufficient to warrant a review. 

Therefore, in accordance with the 

above-referenced regulation, the 

Department is initiating a changedcircumstances review. 

SNR claims that the information 

contained in its August 21, 2009, 

request demonstrates that it is the 

successor-in-interest to SNR prior to 

acquisition by NBCA (i.e., preacquisition SNR). Although SNR 

requests that the Department refrain 

from issuing a changed-circumstances 

questionnaire, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(2) and (4), the 

Department may issue a questionnaire 

requesting factual information for the 

review should it decide additional 

information is necessary. 

We will publish a notice of 

preliminary results of the antidumping 

duty changed-circumstances review in 

the Federal Register as explained in 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(4) and 221(c)(3)(i). The 

notice will set forth the factual and legal 

conclusions upon which our 

preliminary results are based. Pursuant 

to 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4)(ii), interested 

parties will have an opportunity to 

comment on the preliminary results of 

review. We will issue our final results 

of review no later than the regulatory 

deadline in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.216(e). During the course of this 

antidumping duty changedcircumstances review, we will not 

change the cash-deposit requirements 

for imports of the subject merchandise. 

The cash-deposit rate will be altered, if 

warranted, pursuant only to the final 

results of this changed-circumstances 

review. 

This notice of initiation is in 

accordance with section 751(b)(1) of the 

Act, 19 CFR 351.216(b) and (d), and 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(1). 

Dated: September 14, 2009.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy 

and Negotiations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 2, 2009, the Department of 

Commerce (the Department) published a 

notice of opportunity to request an 

administrative review of the 

countervailing duty (CVD) order on 

welded carbon steel pipe and tube from 

Turkey. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

To Request Administrative Review, 74 

FR 9077 (March 2, 2009). On April 27, 

2009, the Department published the 

notice of initiation of the administrative 

review of the CVD order for the period 

January 1, 2008, through December 31, 

2008, covering, among other 

companies,1 the Yucel Boru Group, 

Cayirova Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., 

Yucelboru Ihracat Ithalat ve Pazarlama 

A.S., and Yucel Boru ve Profil 

Endustrisi A.S. (collectively, Yucel). See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Request for Revocation in 

Part, 74 FR 19042, 19044 (April 27, 

2009). 

On June 15, 2009, Yucel notified the 

Department that it had no sales, 

shipments, or entries, directly or 

indirectly, of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the period of 

review (POR). On August 5, 2009, we 

published the notice of preliminary 

rescission of this CVD duty 

administrative review with respect to 

Yucel, and invited interested parties to 

comment. See Welded Carbon Steel 

Standard Pipe and Tube from Turkey: 

Intent to Rescind Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Review, in Part, 74 FR 

39062 (August 5, 2009) (Preliminary 

Rescission). We received no comments, 

and have determined that the review of 

Yucel should be rescinded. This review 

will remain in effect for all other 

companies for which the review was 

initiated. 

Partial Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the 

Department may rescind an 

administrative review, with respect to a 

particular exporter or producer, if the 

Secretary concludes that, during the 

period covered by the review, there 

were no entries, exports, or sales of the 

subject merchandise to the United 

States by that producer. Yucel 

submitted a letter on June 15, 2009, 

certifying that it did not have sales of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. The Department
