SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The notice announcing the 

antidumping duty order on petroleum 

wax candles from the PRC published in 

the Federal Register on August 28, 

1986. See Antidumping Duty Order: 

Petroleum Wax Candles From the 

People’s Republic of China, 51 FR 30686 

(August 28, 1986).1 On February 16, 

2007, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(c), 

the Department received a new shipper 

review request from Hangzhou Fashion 

Living Co., Ltd (‘‘Fashion Living’’). On 

March 7, 2007, the Department 

requested that Fashion Living correct 

certain filing deficiencies. See the 

Department’s letter dated March 7, 

2007. On March 8, 2007, Fashion Living 

resubmitted its new shipper request. 

Fashion Living certified that it is both 

the producer and exporter of the subject 

merchandise upon which the request for 

a new shipper review is based. 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of 

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

Act’’), and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), 

Fashion Living certified that it did not 

export petroleum wax candles to the 

United States during the period of 

investigation (‘‘POI’’). In addition, 

pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A), 

Fashion Living certified that, since the 

initiation of the investigation, it has 

never been affiliated with any PRC 

exporter or producer who exported 

petroleum wax candles to the United 

States during the POI, including those 

not individually examined during the 

investigation. As required by 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), Fashion Living also 

certified that its export activities were 

not controlled by the central 

government of the PRC. 

In addition to the certifications 

described above, pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iv), Fashion Living 

submitted documentation establishing 

the following: (1) the date on which 

Fashion Living first shipped petroleum 

wax candles for export to the United 

States and the date on which the 

petroleum wax candles were first 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption; (2) the volume of its 

first shipment; 2 and (3) the date of its 

first sale to an unaffiliated customer in 

the United States. 

The Department conducted customs 

database queries to confirm that Fashion 

Living’s shipment of subject 

merchandise had entered the United 

States for consumption and had been 

suspended for antidumping duties. We 

confirmed that Fashion Living’s 

shipment had entered for consumption 

and been suspended for antidumping 

duties. 

Initiation of New Shipper Review 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), the 

Department finds that Fashion Living’s 

request meets the threshold 

requirements for initiation of a new 

shipper review for the shipment of 

petroleum wax candles from the PRC it 

produced and exported. See Memo to 

the File from Nicole Bankhead, Senior 

Case Analyst, through Alex Villanueva, 

Program Manager, Office 9: New 

Shipper Review Initiation Checklist, 

dated March 19, 2007. 

The POR for this new shipper review 

is August 1, 2006, through January 31, 

2007. See 19 CFR 351.214(g)(1)(ii)(B). 

The Department intends to issue the 

preliminary results of this review no 

later than 180 days from the date of 

initiation, and final results of this 

review no later than 270 days from the 

date of initiation. See section 

751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act. 

Interested parties requiring access to 

proprietary information in this new 

shipper review should submit 

applications for disclosure under 

administrative protective order in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and 

351.306. This initiation and notice are 

published in accordance with section 

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

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 2, 1995, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on SSB from 

Spain. See Amended Final 

Determination and Antidumping Duty 

Order: Stainless Steel Bar From Spain, 

60 FR 11656 (March 2, 1995) (SSB 

Order). On March 2, 2006, the 

Department published in the Federal 

Register a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on SSB from 

Spain. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

to Request Administrative Review, 71 

FR 10642 (March 2, 2006). On March 29, 

2006, Sidenor requested that the 

Department conduct a review of its U.S. 

sales made during the period of review. 

On April 28, 2006, in accordance with 

19 CFR 351.213(b), we published a 

notice of initiation of administrative 

review of this order. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews, 71 FR 25145 

(April 28, 2006). On December 1, 2006, 

we published a notice announcing the 

extension of the due date for the 

completion of these preliminary results 

of review from December 1, 2006, to 

February 13, 2007. See Extension of 

Time Limit for Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 71 FR 69550 (December 1, 2006) 

(Extension Notice).1 On February 6, 

2007, we published a notice announcing 

a second extension of the due date for 

the completion of these preliminary 

results of review from February 13, 

2007, to March 22, 2007. See Extension 

of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 72 FR 5419 (February 6, 2007). 

The Department is conducting this 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by this order is 

SSB. SSB means articles of stainless 

steel in straight lengths that have been 

either hot–rolled, forged, turned, cold–

drawn, cold–rolled or otherwise cold–

finished, or ground, having a uniform 

solid cross section along their whole 

length in the shape of circles, segments 

of circles, ovals, rectangles (including 

squares), triangles, hexagons, octagons 

or other convex polygons. SSB includes 

cold–finished SSBs that are turned or 

ground in straight lengths, whether 

produced from hot–rolled bar or from 

straightened and cut rod or wire, and 

reinforcing bars that have indentations, 

ribs, grooves, or other deformations 

produced during the rolling process. 

Except as specified above, the term 

does not include stainless steel semi–

finished products, cut length flat–rolled 

products (i.e., cut length rolled products 

which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness 

have a width measuring at least 10 times 

the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in 

thickness having a width which exceeds 

150 mm and measures at least twice the 

thickness), wire (i.e., cold–formed 

products in coils, of any uniform solid 

cross section along their whole length, 

which do not conform to the definition 

of flat–rolled products), and angles, 

shapes and sections. 

The SSB subject to this order is 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

7222.10.0005, 7222.10.0050, 

7222.20.0005, 7222.20.0045, 

7222.20.0075, and 7222.30.0000 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Although the 

HTSUS subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, our 

written description of the scope of this 

order is dispositive. 

Use of Adverse Facts Available 

Section 776(a)(2) of the Act provides 

that, if an interested party withholds 

information requested by the 

administering authority, fails to provide 

such information by the deadlines for 

submission of the information and in 

the form or manner requested, subject to 

subsections (c)(1) and (e) of section 782 

of the Act, significantly impedes a 

proceeding under this title, or provides 

such information but the information 

cannot be verified as provided in 

section 782(i), the administering 

authority shall use, subject to section 

782(d) of the Act, facts otherwise 

available in reaching the applicable 

determination. Section 782(d) of the Act 

provides that, if the administering 

authority determines that a response to 

a request for information does not 

comply with the request, the 

administering authority shall promptly 

inform the responding party and 

provide an opportunity to remedy the 

deficient submission. Section 782(e) of 

the Act further states that the 

Department shall not decline to 

consider submitted information if all of 

the following requirements are met: (1) 

the information is submitted by the 

established deadline; (2) the information 

can be verified; (3) the information is 

not so incomplete that it cannot serve as 

a reliable basis for reaching the 

applicable determination; (4) the 

interested party has demonstrated that it 

acted to the best of its ability; and (5) 

the information can be used without 

undue difficulties.
