5332 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 20 / Monday, January 31, 2011 / Notices 

1The deadline for this notification fell on 

November 21, 2010, a Sunday. Accordingly, we 

notified the International Trade Commission on the 

next business day. 

on November 22, 2010,1 we notified the 

International Trade Commission, in 

writing, that we intended to issue a final 

determination revoking these 

antidumping duty orders. See 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(2). 

Scope of the Orders 

The products covered by these orders 

are certain forged stainless steel flanges, 

both finished and not finished, 

generally manufactured to specification 

ASTM A–182, and made in alloys such 

as 304, 304L, 316, and 316L. The scope 

includes five general types of flanges. 

They are weld-neck, used for butt-weld 

line connections; threaded, used for 

threaded line connections; slip-on and 

lap joint, used with stub-ends/butt-weld 

line connections; socket weld, used to 

fit pipe into a machined recession; and 

blind, used to seal off a line. The sizes 

of the flanges within the scope range 

generally from one to six inches; 

however, all sizes of the abovedescribed merchandise are included in 

the scope. Specifically excluded from 

the scope of these orders are cast 

stainless steel flanges. Cast stainless 

steel flanges generally are manufactured 

to specification ASTM A–351. The 

flanges subject to these orders are 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

7307.21.1000 and 7307.21.5000 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Although the 

HTSUS subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

subject to these orders is dispositive of 

whether or not the merchandise is 

covered by the scope of the orders. 

Determination To Revoke and Effective 

Date of Revocation 

Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) 

and 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(3), if no 

domestic interested party files a notice 

of intent to participate, the Department 

shall, within 90 days after the initiation 

of the sunset review, issue a final 

determination revoking the order. 

Because the domestic interested parties 

did not file a notice of intent to 

participate in these sunset reviews, the 

Department finds that no domestic 

interested party is participating in these 

sunset reviews. Therefore, consistent 

with 19 CFR 351.222(i)(1)(i) and section 

751(c)(3)(A) of the Act, we are revoking 

the antidumping duty orders. The 

effective date of revocation of these 

antidumping duty orders is January 23, 

2011, the fifth anniversary of the date of 

publication in the Federal Register of 

the most recent notice of continuation of 

this antidumping duty order. See Notice 

of Continuation. 

Termination of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the 

Department intends to issue instructions 

to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, 

15 days after publication of this notice, 

to terminate the suspension of 

liquidation of the merchandise subject 

to these orders entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, on or after January 23, 

2011. Entries of subject merchandise 

prior to the effective date of revocation 

will continue to be subject to 

suspension of liquidation and 

antidumping duty deposit requirements. 

The Department will complete any 

pending administrative reviews of these 

orders and will conduct administrative 

reviews of subject merchandise entered 

prior to the effective date of revocation 

in response to appropriately filed 

requests for review. 

These five-year (sunset) reviews and 

notice are published in accordance with 

sections 751(c) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. 

Dated: January 25, 2011.

Administration.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) has received a request 

for a new shipper review of the

In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.214(d), we are 

initiating an antidumping duty new

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 10, 2001, the 

Department published the antidumping 

duty order on honey from Argentina. 

See Order, 66 FR at 63672. Thus, the 

antidumping duty order on honey from 

Argentina has a December anniversary 

month. On January 3, 2011, the 

Department received a timely filed 

request dated December 31, 2010, for a 

new shipper review from Villamora. In 

its request for a review, Villamora 

identified itself as an exporter of the 

subject merchandise. For the purpose of 

initiating this new shipper review, the 

Department determines that Villamora’s 

submission was timely filed. 

Pursuant to the requirements set forth 

in section 751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Act and 

19 CFR 351.214(b)(2), Villamora 

certified that (1) it did not export subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the period of investigation (POI) (see 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the Act and 

19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i)); and (2) since 

the initiation of the investigation, it has 

never been affiliated with any company 

that exported subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POI, including 

those companies not individually 

examined during the investigation (see 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the Act and 

19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A)). 

Additionally, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iv), Villamora 

submitted documentation establishing 

the following: (1) The date on which it 

first shipped subject merchandise to the 

United States; (2) the volume of its first 

shipment; and (3) the date of its first 

sale to an unaffiliated purchaser for 

exportation to the United States. 

Villamora also stated it had no 

shipments to the United States during 

the period subsequent to its first 

shipment. 

Initiation of Review 

Based on information on the record 

and in accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(B) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.214(d), we find that the request 

submitted by Villamora meets the 

statutory and regulatory requirements 

for initiation of a new shipper review.

Duty New Shipper Review: Honey from 

Argentina,’’ dated January 25, 2011. 

Accordingly, we are initiating a new 

shipper review of the antidumping duty 

order on honey from Argentina exported 

by Villamora, for the period December 

1, 2009, through November 30, 2010. 

We intend to issue the preliminary 

results of this review no later than 180 

days after the date on which this review 

is initiated, and the final results within 

90 days after the date on which we issue 

the preliminary results. See section 

751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.214(h)(i). 

We will instruct U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) to allow, at the 

option of the importer, the posting, until 

the completion of the review, of a bond 

or security in lieu of a cash deposit for 

certain entries of the subject 

merchandise exported by Villamora in 

accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(e). 

Because Villamora certified that it 

exports the subject merchandise, the 

sale of which forms the basis for its new 

shipper review request, we will instruct 

CBP to permit the use of a bond only for 

entries of subject merchandise which 

Villamora exported. 

Interested parties may submit 

applications for disclosure under 

administrative protective order in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and 

351.306. 

This initiation and this notice are 

issued and published in accordance 

with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 

19 CFR 351.214 and 351.221(c)(1)(i).

Non-Malleable Cast Iron Pipe Fittings 

from the People’s Republic of China: 

Preliminary Results of Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: In response to a timely 

request from NEP Tianjin Machinery 

Company (‘‘NEP Tianjin’’) the 

Department of Commerce (the 

‘‘Department’’) is conducting the 2009– 

2010 administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on nonmalleable cast iron pipe fittings (‘‘pipe 

fittings’’) from the People’s Republic of 

China (‘‘PRC’’). The Department has 

reviewed shipments of subject 

merchandise made by NEP Tianjin and 

has determined that NEP Tianjin made 

sales below normal value (‘‘NV’’) during 

the period of review (‘‘POR’’). If the 

preliminary results are adopted in our 

final results of review, we will instruct 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(‘‘CBP’’) to assess antidumping duties on 

entries of subject merchandise during 

the POR for which the importer-specific 

assessment rates are above de minimis. 

We invite interested parties to 

comment on these preliminary results of 

review. Parties who submit comments 

are requested to submit with each 

argument a statement of the issue and a 

brief summary of the argument. We 

intend to issue the final results no later 

than 120 days from the date of 

publication of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On April 7, 2003, the Department 

published an antidumping duty order 

on pipe fittings from the PRC.1 The 

Department received a timely request 

for review of this antidumping order in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b)(2) 

from NEP Tianjin. On May 28, 2010, the 

Department published a notice of 

initiation of an antidumping duty 

administrative review on pipe fittings 

from the PRC, in which it initiated a 

review of NEP Tianjin.2

On June 7, 2010, the Department 

issued the antidumping duty 

questionnaire to NEP Tianjin. We 

received a timely questionnaire 

response from NEP Tianjin. We issued 

supplemental questionnaires for 

sections A, C, and D to NEP Tianjin in 

September and October 2010, followed 

with secondary supplemental 

questionnaires for sections C and D in 

November 2010. We received timely 

responses from NEP Tianjin to our 

supplemental questionnaires between 

October 20, 2010, and December 8, 

2010. 

On October 22, 2010, the Department 

identified India, the Philippines, 

Indonesia, Thailand, Ukraine, and Peru 

as a non-exhaustive list of countries that 

are at a level of economic development 

comparable to the PRC and for which 

good quality data is most likely 

available.3 In response to the 

Department’s October 22, 2010, letter 

providing parties with an opportunity to 

submit comments regarding surrogate 

country and surrogate value (‘‘SV’’) 

selection, NEP Tianjin submitted 

surrogate country and SV comments on 

November 9, 2010, and December 8, 

2010, respectively. 

On December 7, 2010, the Department 

extended the deadline for the 

preliminary results of administrative 

review until January 31, 2011.4

Period of Review 

The POR is April 1, 2009, through 

March 31, 2010. 

Scope of Order 

The products covered by the order are 

finished and unfinished non-malleable 

cast iron pipe fittings with an inside 

diameter ranging from 1⁄4 inch to 6 

inches, whether threaded or 

unthreaded, regardless of industry or 

proprietary specifications. The subject 

fittings include elbows, ells, tees, 

crosses, and reducers as well as flanged 

fittings. These pipe fittings are also 

known as ‘‘cast iron pipe fittings’’ or 

‘‘gray iron pipe fittings.’’ These cast iron 

pipe fittings are normally produced to 

ASTM A–126 and ASME B.16.4 

specifications and are threaded to 

ASME B1.20.1 specifications. Most 

building codes require that these 

products are Underwriters Laboratories 

(UL) certified. The scope does not 

include cast iron soil pipe fittings or 

grooved fittings or grooved couplings. 

Fittings that are made out of ductile 

iron that have the same physical 

characteristics as the gray or cast iron 

fittings subject to the scope above or 

which have the same physical 

characteristics and are produced to 

ASME B.16.3, ASME B.16.4, or ASTM 

A–395 specifications, threaded to ASME
