Initiation of New Shipper Antidumping

Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce

has received a request to conduct a new

shipper administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on tapered

roller bearings and parts thereof,

finished and unfinished, from the

People’s Republic of China. In

accordance with 19 CFR 353.22(h), we

are initiating this administrative review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: August 14, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Jennifer Yeske or Zak Smith, Import

Administration, International Trade

Administration, U.S. Department of

Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution

Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230;

telephone (202) 482–0189 or 482–1279,

respectively.

Applicable Statute and Regulations

Unless otherwise indicated, all

citations to the Tariff Act of 1930, as

amended (the Act), are references to the

provisions effective January 1, 1995, the

effective date of the amendments made

to the Act by the Uruguay Round

Agreements Act. In addition, unless

otherwise indicated, all citations to the

Department’s regulations are to the

‘‘interim’’ regulations published in the

Federal Register, May 11, 1995 (60 FR

25133).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On May 30, 1997, the Department of

Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) received

a timely request from Changshan

Bearing Factory (‘‘Changshan’’), in

accordance with 19 CFR 353.22(h), for

a new shipper review of the

antidumping duty order on tapered

roller bearings (‘‘TRBs’’) from the

People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’)

which has a June anniversary date.

Changshan has certified that it did not

export tapered roller bearings to the U.S.

during the period of investigation (POI)

and that it is not affiliated with any

exporter or producer which did export

tapered roller bearings during the POI.

This certification is in accordance with

section 751(a)(2)(B)) of the Tariff Act of

1930 as amended, and 19 CFR

353.22(h). In addition, Changshan has

certified that it is not controlled by the

government of the PRC. Therefore, we

are initiating the new shipper review as

requested. It is the Department’s usual

practice with non-market economies to

require information regarding de jure

and de facto government control over a

company’s export activities to establish

its eligibility for an antidumping duty

rate separate from the country-wide rate.

Accordingly we will issue a separate

rates questionnaire to Changshan and

seek additional information from the

PRC government (as appropriate),

allowing 30 days for response. If the

responses from Changshan and the PRC

government indicate adequately that

Changshan is not subject to either de

jure or de facto government control with

respect to its exports of tapered roller

bearings, the review will proceed. If, on

the other hand, Changshan does not

demonstrate its eligibility for a separate

rate, Changshan will be deemed to be

affiliated with other companies that

exported during the POI that did not

establish their entitlement to a separate

rate, and the review will be terminated.

Initiation of Review

In accordance with section

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

353.22(h)(6), we are initiating a new

shipper review of the antidumping duty

order on tapered roller bearings from the

PRC. Changshan has agreed to waive the

time limits of 19 CFR 353.22(h)(7), in

order that the Department may conduct

this review concurrent with the

administrative review of this order for

the period 6/1/96–5/31/97 as requested

pursuant to section 751(a) of the Act.

See, Antidumping Duties,

Countervailing Duties; Final rule, 62 FR

27295, 27395 (5/19/97). Therefore, we

intend to issue the final results of

review not later than 365 days after the

last day of the anniversary month. In

accordance with our practice, all other

provisions of section 353.22(h) will

apply to Changshan throughout the

duration of this new shipper review. See
