The Applicable Statute

Unless otherwise indicated, all

Background

On March 30, 1999,the Department

received a request from Yancheng

Haiteng Aquatic Products & Foods Co.,

Ltd. to conduct a new shipper review of

the antidumping duty order on

freshwater crawfish tail meat from the

People’s Republic of China. On May 6,

1999, the Department published its

initiation of this new shipper review

covering the period of September 1,

1998 through February 28, 1999 (64 FR

24328). On March 15, 2000, the

Department published the preliminary

results of review (65 FR 13939).

Extension of Time Limits for Final

Results

enumerated in the Memorandum from

Edward C. Yang to Joseph A. Spetrini,

Extension of Time Limit for the Final

Results of New Shipper Review of

Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the

People’s Republic of China, dated April

7, 2000, we find this review to be

extraordinarily complicated and thus

are unable to complete these reviews

within the time limits mandated by

section 351.214(i)(2) of the Department’s

regulations.

Therefore, in accordance with section

351.214(i)(2) of the Department’s

regulations, the Department is extending

the time period for issuing the final

results of review until June 23, 2000.

Dated: April 7, 2000.

25310 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 84 / Monday, May 1, 2000 / Notices

1A number of parties commented that these

interim-final regulations provided insufficient time

for rebuttals to substantive responses to a notice of

initiation (Sunset Regulations, 19 CFR

351.218(d)(4)). As provided in 19 CFR 351.302(b)

(1998), the Department will consider individual

requests for extension of that five-day deadline

based upon a showing of good cause.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Initiation of Reviews

In accordance with 19 CFR 351.218

(see Procedures for Conducting Fiveyear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Orders, 63 FR 13516 (March 20, 1998)),

we are initiating sunset reviews of the

following antidumping and

countervailing duty orders or suspended

investigations:

DOC Case No. ITC Case No. Country Product

A–570–835 .................................... A–731–703 .................................... China ............................................. Furfuryl Alcohol.

A–549–812 .................................... A–731–705 .................................... Thailand ........................................ Furfuryl Alcohol.

Statute and Regulations

Pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of

the Act, an antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’)

order will be revoked unless revocation

or termination would be likely to lead

to continuation or recurrence of (1)

dumping, and (2) material injury to the

domestic industry.

This review was conducted pursuant

to sections 751(c) and 752 of the Act.

The Department’s procedures for the

conduct of sunset reviews are set forth

in Procedures for Conducting Five-year

(‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of Antidumping and

Countervailing Duty Orders, 63 FR

13516 (March 20, 1998) (‘‘Sunset

Regulations’’) and in 19 CFR part 351

(1999) in general. Guidance on

methodological or analytical issues

relevant to the Department’s conduct of

sunset reviews is set forth in the

Department’s Policy Bulletin 98:3—

Policies Regarding the Conduct of Fiveyear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Orders; Policy Bulletin, 63 FR 18871

(April 16, 1998) (‘‘Sunset Policy

Bulletin’’).

Filing Information

As a courtesy, we are making

information related to sunset

proceedings, including copies of the

Sunset Regulations and Sunset Policy

Bulletin, the Department’s schedule of

sunset reviews, case history information

(e.g., previous margins, duty absorption

determinations, scope language, import

volumes), and service lists, available to

the public on the Department’s sunset

internet website at the following

address: ‘‘http://www.ita.doc.gov/

import_admin/records/sunset/’’.

All submissions in the sunset review

must be filed in accordance with the

Department’s regulations regarding

format, translation, service, and

certification of documents. These rules

can be found at 19 CFR 351.303 (1998).

Also, we suggest that parties check the

Department’s sunset website for any

updates to the service list before filing

any submissions. We ask that parties

notify the Department in writing of any

additions or corrections to the list. We

also would appreciate written

notification if you no longer represent a

party on the service list.

Because deadlines in a sunset review

are, in many instances, very short, we

urge interested parties to apply for

access to proprietary information under

administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)

immediately following publication in

the Federal Register of the notice of

initiation of the sunset review. The

Department’s regulations on submission

of proprietary information and

eligibility to receive access to business

proprietary information under APO can

be found at 19 CFR 351.304–306 (see

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Proceedings: Administrative Protective

Order Procedures; Procedures for

Imposing Sanctions for Violation of a

Protective Order, 63 FR 24391 (May 4,

1998)).

Information Required From Interested

Parties

Domestic interested parties (defined

in 19 CFR 351.102 (1998)) wishing to

participate in the sunset review must

respond not later than 15 days after the

date of publication in the Federal

Register of the notice of initiation by

filing a notice of intent to participate.

The required contents of the notice of

intent to participate are set forth in the

Sunset Regulations at 19 CFR

351.218(d)(1)(ii). In accordance with the

Sunset Regulations, if we do not receive

a notice of intent to participate from at

least one domestic interested party by

the 15-day deadline, the Department

will automatically revoke the order

without further review.

If we receive a notice of intent to

participate from a domestic interested

party, the Sunset Regulations provide

that all parties wishing to participate in

the sunset review must file substantive

responses not later than 30 days after

the date of publication in the Federal

Register of the notice of initiation. The

required contents of a substantive

response are set forth in the Sunset

Regulations at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3).

Note that certain information

requirements differ for foreign and

domestic parties. Also, note that the

Department’s information requirements

are distinct from the International Trade

Commission’s information

requirements. Please consult the Sunset

Regulations for information regarding

the Department’s conduct of sunset

reviews.1 Please consult the

Department’s regulations at 19 CFR part

351 (1998) for definitions of terms and

for other general information concerning

antidumping duty order proceedings at

the Department.

This notice of initiation is being

published in accordance with section

751(c) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c).
