The Department shall determine, and

the Customs Service shall assess,

antidumping duties on all appropriate

entries. The Department will issue

appraisement instructions directly to

the U.S. Customs Service.

Furthermore, the following deposit

rates will be effective upon publication

of these final results for all shipments of

HSLWs from the PRC entered, or

withdrawn from warehouse, for

consumption on or after the publication

date, as provided for by section

751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) For ZWG, which

has a separate rate, the cash deposit rate

will be the company-specific rate

established in these final results of

review; (2) for all other PRC exporters,

the cash deposit rate will be the PRC

rate, 128.63 percent, which is the All

Other PRC Manufacturers, Producers

and Exporters rate from the Final

Determination of Sales at Less Than

Fair Value: Certain Helical Spring Lock

Washers from the PRC, 58 FR 48833

(September 20, 1993); and (3) for nonPRC exporters of subject merchandise

from the PRC, the cash deposit rate will

be the rate applicable to the PRC

supplier of that exporter. These deposit

rates shall remain in effect until

publication of the final results of the

This notice also serves as a final

reminder to importers of their

responsibility under section 351.402(f)

of the Department’s regulations 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.

This notice also serves as a reminder

to parties subject to administrative

protective order (APO) of their

responsibility concerning the

disposition of proprietary information

disclosed under APO in accordance

with section 351.305(a)(3) of the

Department’s regulations. Timely

written notification of the return/

destruction of APO materials or

conversion to judicial protective order is

hereby requested. Failure to comply

with the regulations and the terms of an

APO is a sanctionable violation.

This administrative review and notice

are in accordance with sections

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

Dated: May 8, 2000.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import

Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of final results of

antidumping duty administrative

review.

SUMMARY: On January 7, 2000, the

Department of Commerce published the

preliminary results of administrative

review of the antidumping duty order

on porcelain-on-steel (‘‘POS’’) cooking

ware from the People’s Republic of

China (‘‘PRC’’). The merchandise

covered by this order is shipments of

POS cooking ware, including tea kettles,

which do not have self-contained

electric heating elements. This review

covers one manufacturer/exporter of the

subject merchandise, Clover

Enamelware Enterprise, Ltd. of China

(‘‘Clover’’), and its Hong Kong reseller,

Lucky Enamelware Factory Ltd.

(‘‘Lucky’’), collectively referred to as

Lucky/Clover. The period of review

(‘‘POR’’) is December 1, 1997 through

November 30, 1998.

Based on our analysis of the

comments received, we have made

corrections to our calculations.

However, these corrections did not

change the margin which was calculated

in the preliminary determination, which

was zero. The final weighted-average

dumping margin for the reviewed firm

is listed below in the section entitled

‘‘Final Results of the Review.’’

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 16, 2000.

Background

On January 7, 2000, the Department

ware from the PRC. See Porcelain-onSteel Cooking Ware From the People’s

Republic of China; Preliminary Results

The review covers one manufacturer/

Lucky/Clover. The POR is December 1,

1997 through November 30, 1998. We

invited parties to comment on our

preliminary results of review. Only

Lucky/Clover submitted comments. No

requests were made for a public hearing.

The Department has conducted this

administrative review in accordance

with section 751 of the Act.

Scope of Review

Imports covered by this review are

including tea kettles, which do not have

self-contained electric heating elements.

All of the foregoing are constructed of

steel and are enameled or glazed with

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

Based on our analysis of comments

received, we have made certain changes

in the margin calculations. We have also

corrected certain programming and

clerical errors in our preliminary

exist for the period December 1, 1997

Manufacturer/producer/exporter Margin

(percent)

Clover Enamelware Enterprise/

Lucky Enamelware Factory.

Zero.

The Department shall determine, and

Customs shall assess, antidumping

duties on all appropriate entries. In

accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2),

we will instruct the Customs Service to

liquidate without regard to antidumping

duties all entries of the subject

merchandise during the POR

manufactured by Clover and

subsequently exported by Lucky.

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following deposit requirements

will be effective upon publication of

this notice of final results of

administrative review for all shipments

of POS cooking ware from the PRC

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,

for consumption on or after the date of

publication, as provided by section

751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) For Clover/

Lucky, which has a separate rate, the

cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) for any

previously reviewed PRC firm and nonPRC exporter with a separate rate, the

cash deposit rate will be the companyand product-specific rate established for

the most recent period; (3) the cash

deposit rate for all other PRC exporters

will continue to be 66.65 percent, the

PRC-wide rate established in the LTFV

investigation; and (4) the cash deposit

rate for non-PRC exporters of subject

merchandise from the PRC will be the

rate applicable to the PRC supplier of

that exporter. These requirements, when

imposed, shall remain in effect until

publication of the final results of the

next administrative review.

This notice also serves as a final

reminder to importers of their

responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)

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 doubled

antidumping duties.

This notice also serves as the only

reminder to parties subject to

administrative protective orders

(‘‘APO’’) of their responsibility

concerning the return or destruction of

proprietary information disclosed under

APO in accordance with 19 CFR

351.305 or conversion to judicial

protective order is hereby requested.

Failure to comply with the regulations

and terms of an APO is a violation

which is subject to sanction.

Act.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
