SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On June 20, 1997, the Department

published Extruded Rubber Thread

From Malaysia, Final Results of

Antidumping Duty Administrative

Review, 62 FR 33588 (June 20, 1997)

(‘‘Final Results’’), covering the period

October 1, 1994 through September 30,

1995. Subsequent to the publication of

the Department’s Final Results, the

respondents (Heveafil Sdn. Bhd.,

Rubberflex Sdn. Bhd., Rubfil Sdn. Bhd.,

and Filati Lastex Elastofibre (Malaysia))

appealed the Final Results to the Court.

Based on these challenges the Court

remanded the Final Results. See

Heveafil Sdn. Bhd., Rubberflex Sdn.

Bhd., Rubfil Sdn. Bhd., and Filati Lastex

Elastofibre (Malaysia) v. the United

States, Slip Op. 99–69 (July 23, 1999).

On remand, the Court instructed the

Department to (1) repeat the verification

of Rubberflex Sdn. Bhd. (‘‘Rubberflex’’);

(2) correct the double-counting of

general and administrative (‘‘G&A’’) and

indirect selling expenses in the

calculation of constructed value (‘‘CV’’)

for Rubfil Sdn. Bhd. (‘‘Rubfil’’); and (3)

eliminate the double-counting of marine

insurance for Filati Lastex Elastrofibre

(‘‘Filati’’) in the calculation of Filati’s

dumping margin.

As a result of settlement negotiations,

Rubberflex entered into an agreement

with the Department to settle the

litigation and to dismiss its claim with

respect to the lawsuit. On October 22,

1999, the Department filed its remand

determination with the Court,

addressing issues related to the

remaining plaintiffs. In its

determination, the Department

corrected for the double-counting of

G&A and indirect selling expenses in

the calculation of CV for Rubfil. The

Department also corrected for the

double-counting of marine insurance in

Filati’s margin calculation program.

As noted above, on November 24,

1999, the Court affirmed the

Department’s remand results and no

appeal was filed. As there is now a final

and conclusive court decision in this

action, we are amending our Final

Results of review in this matter and we

will instruct the U.S. Customs Service

25704 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 86 / Wednesday, May 3, 2000 / Notices

(‘‘Customs’’) to liquidate entries subject

to this review in accordance with the

remand results. Because the Department

has published subsequent

administrative reviews covering later

time periods, future cash deposit rates

will be governed by the most recently

completed administrative review,

according to the Department’s normal

procedures. See Extruded Rubber

Thread From Malaysia; Final Results of

Antidumping Duty Administrative

Review, 65 FR 6140 (February 8, 2000).

Amended Final Results

Pursuant to section 516A(e) of the

Act, we are now amending the Final

Results. As a result of our recalculation

of the margins, the final weightedaverage margins for Rubfil and Filati

have changed. Further, as a result of the

settlement agreement, the final weighedaverage margin for Rubberflex has

changed. The final weighted-average

margins for the above period of review

are as follows:

Producer/manufacturer/exporter

Weightedaverage

margin

(percent)

Rubfil Sdn. Bhd .......................... 36.14

Filati Lastex Elastofibre

(Malyasia) ................................ 7.74

Rubberflex .................................. 10.00

The Department will determine, and

Customs shall assess, antidumping

duties on all appropriate entries. The

Department will issue appraisement

instructions to Customs after

publication of this amended final results

of review.

This determination is issued and

published in accordance with sections

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