Ball Bearings and Parts Thereof from 

France: Initiation of Antidumping Duty 

Changed–Circumstances Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration,

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: In response to a request from 

SKF Aeroengine France S.A.S.U., the 

Department of Commerce is initiating a 

changed–circumstances review of the 

antidumping duty order on ball bearings 

and parts thereof from France. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 30, 2009.

Kristin Case or Richard Rimlinger, AD/ 

CVD Operations, Office 5, Import 

Administration, International Trade

(202) 482–3174 or (202) 482–4477, 

respectively. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Department of Commerce (the 

Department) published an antidumping 

duty order on ball bearings and parts 

thereof from France on May 15, 1989. 

See Antidumping Duty Orders: Ball 

Bearings, Cylindrical Roller Bearings, 

Spherical Plain Bearings, and Parts 

Thereof From France, 54 FR 20902 (May 

15, 1989). On August 11, 2000, the 

Department revoked the order, effective 

May 1, 1999, with respect to sales of ball 

bearings by SNFA S.A. (SNFA). See 

Antifriction Bearings (Other Than 

Tapered Roller Bearings) and Parts 

Thereof From France, Germany, Italy, 

Japan, Romania, Singapore, Sweden, 

and the United Kingdom; Final Results 

of Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Revocation of Orders in 

Part, 65 FR 49219 (August 11, 2000). 

On March 2, 2007, pursuant to a 

request from SNFA, SKF France S.A., 

and SKF Aerospace France S.A.S., we 

initiated a changed–circumstances 

review in order to determine whether 

SNFA was a successor–in-interest to 

SKF France S.A. following SNFA’s 

acquisition by that company or, 

alternatively, that post–acquisition 

SNFA was the successor–in-interest to 

the pre–acquisition SNFA. See Ball 

Bearings and Parts Thereof from France: 

Initiation of an Antidumping Duty 

Changed–Circumstances Review, 72 FR 

9513 (March 2, 2007). During the course 

of the changed–circumstances review, 

the companies informed the Department 

that SNFA would be changing its name 

to SKF Aeroengine France S.A.S.U. 

(SKF Aeroengine). 

On June 29, 2007, we initiated an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on ball bearings 

and parts thereof from France for the 

period May 1, 2006, through April 30, 

2007, with respect to SKF France S.A. 

and SKF Aerospace France S.A.S. See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews, Request for Revocation in Part 

and Deferral of Administrative Review, 

72 FR 35690 (June 29, 2007). On 

October 26, 2007, we rescinded the 

changed–circumstances review and 

explained that, because we had initiated 

an administrative review with respect to 

SKF France S.A. and SKF Aerospace 

France S.A.S., we would address any 

issues that had arisen during the course 

of the changed–circumstances review in 

the context of the administrative review. 

See Ball Bearings and Parts Thereof 

from France and Italy: Rescission of 

Antidumping Duty Changed– 

Circumstances Reviews, 72 FR 60798 

(October 26, 2007). In the final results 

of the 2006/07 administrative review, 

we determined that post–acquisition 

SNFA was the successor–in-interest to 

pre–acquisition SNFA and that, during 

the period of review, SNFA had not 

changed its name to SKF Aeroengine. 

See Ball Bearings and Parts Thereof 

From France, Germany, Italy, Japan, 

and the United Kingdom: Final Results 

of Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Rescission of Reviews in 

Part, 73 FR 52823 (September 11, 2008), 

and accompanying Issues and Decision 

Memorandum at comment 12 (AFBs 

Final Results). 

On February 6, 2009, SKF Aeroengine 

requested that, because the Department 

appeared to have left open the effect of 

the name change on its determination in 

AFBs Final Results, the Department 

either confirm that its determination 

encompassed the name change or, in the 

alternative, the Department initiate a 

changed–circumstances review to 

determine whether SKF Aeroengine is 

the successor–in-interest to SNFA. 

No other party submitted comments.

Initiation of Changed–Circumstances 

Review 

Pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the 

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

and 19 CFR 351.216, the Department 

will conduct a changed–circumstances 

review upon receipt of information 

concerning, or a request from an 

interested party for a review of, an 

antidumping duty order which shows 

changed circumstances sufficient to 

warrant a review of the order. SKF 

Aeroengine claims that it has satisfied 

the criteria to warrant such a review. We 

agree that the information submitted by 

SKF Aeroengine demonstrates changed 

circumstances sufficient to warrant a 


sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
14108 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 59 / Monday, March 30, 2009 / Notices 

review. Therefore, in accordance with 

the above–referenced regulation, the 

Department is initiating a changed– 

circumstances review. 

SKF Aeroengine claims that the 

information contained in its February 6, 

2009, request demonstrates that SKF 

Aeroengine is the successor–in-interest 

to SNFA and requests that the 

Department thus refrain from issuing a 

changed–circumstances questionnaire. 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(2) and (4) and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(3)(i), we may issue a 

questionnaire requesting factual 

information for the review and will 

publish a notice of preliminary results 

of the antidumping duty changed– 

circumstances review in the Federal 

Register. The notice will set forth the 

factual and legal conclusions upon 

which our preliminary results are based. 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4)(ii), 

interested parties will have an 

opportunity to comment on the 

preliminary results of review. We will 

issue our final results of review no later 

than the regulatory deadline in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.216(e). 

During the course of this antidumping 

duty changed–circumstances review, we 

will not change the cash–deposit 

requirements for the subject 

merchandise. The cash–deposit rate will 

be altered, if warranted, pursuant only 

to the final results of this changed– 

circumstances review. 

This notice of initiation is in 

accordance with section 751(b)(1) of the 

Act, 19 CFR 351.216(b) and (d), and 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(1).

CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY 

COMMISSION 

Notice of Roundtable on Cribs and 

Other Sleeping Environments for 

Infants 

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: On August 14, 2008, the 

Consumer Product Safety Improvement 

Act (CPSIA) of 2008 was signed into 

law. Section 104 of the CPSIA requires 

the Commission to study and develop 

safety standards for durable infant and 

toddler products. The Commission is 

charged with examining and assessing 

the effectiveness of any voluntary 

consumer product safety standards for 

these products in consultation with 

representatives of consumer groups, 

juvenile product manufacturers, and 

independent child product engineers 

and experts. As part of the consultation 

process, the Commission will hold a 

Roundtable on Cribs and Other Sleeping 

Environments for Infants. 

DATES: The Roundtable will be held 

from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Wednesday, 

April 22, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: The Roundtable will be 

held at CPSC’s headquarters building at 

4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, 

Maryland 20814, 4th Floor Hearing 

Room. There is no charge to attend the 

Roundtable. If you are interested in 

attending, you must register online at 

http://www.cpsc.gov. Click on the link 

entitled ‘‘CPSC Staff Roundtable: Cribs 

and Other Sleeping Environments for 

Infants’’ under ‘‘What’s Hot’’ near the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 

14, 2008, the CPSIA was signed into 

law. Section 104 of the CPSIA requires 

the Commission to study and develop 

safety standards for durable infant and 

toddler products. Section 104 of the 

CPSIA requires the Commission to 

examine and assess the effectiveness of 

any voluntary consumer product safety 

standards for these products in 

consultation with representatives of 

consumer groups, juvenile product 

manufacturers, and independent child 

product engineers and experts. Section 

104(b)(1)(B) of the CPSIA requires the 

Commission to promulgate consumer 

product safety standards that are 

substantially the same as such voluntary 

standards or are more stringent than 

such voluntary standards if the 

Commission determines that more 

stringent standards would further 

reduce the risk of injury associated with 

such products. 

The purpose of the Roundtable is to 

consult with interested stakeholders 

pursuant to section 104 of the CPSIA 

and to solicit input regarding the 

adequacy of the current voluntary and 

mandatory standards. At the 

Roundtable, CPSC staff intends to 

review recent incident data and provide 

copies of comments received from the 

Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking on Cribs, published on 

November 25, 2008 at 73 FR 71570. 

All attendees will have the 

opportunity to ask questions or make 

comments at the Roundtable. For those 

attendees interested in making a formal 

presentation, please e-mail an abstract 

of 100 words or less, preferably in a 

Word format, with ‘‘Crib Roundtable 

Abstract’’ written in the subject line of 

the e-mail. The e-mail should be sent to 

Patricia Hackett at phackett@cpsc.gov 

no later than April 6, 2009. The 

abstracts may be edited for inclusion in 

the agenda for the Roundtable. In 

addition, please inform Patricia Hackett 

of any special equipment needs required 

to make a presentation. While an effort 

will be made to accommodate all 

persons who wish to make a 

presentation, the time allotted for 

presentations will depend on the 

number of persons who wish to speak 

on a given topic and the Roundtable 

schedule. If a presenter wishes 

attendees to have copies of his/her 

presentation or other handouts, the 

presenter should bring copies to the 

Roundtable. Please note that all 

comments should be restricted to cribs, 

bassinets, play yards, and the current 

voluntary or mandatory standards 

pertaining to these products. 

Accessories, including mattresses, 

bedding, crib tents, sleep positioners, 

etc., while of concern to the staff, will 

not be addressed at this Roundtable. 

Dated: March 25, 2009.
