section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for 

subject merchandise exported by 

Baoding Mantong, the cash deposit rate 

will be that established in the final 

results of review; (2) for previously 

reviewed or investigated companies not 

listed above that have separate rates, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

company specific rate published for the 

most recent period; (3) for all other PRC 

exporters of subject merchandise 

(including Nantong Dongchang), which 

have not been found to be entitled to a 

separate rate, the cash deposit rate will 

be the PRC wide rate of 155.89 percent; 

(4) for all non–PRC exporters of subject 

merchandise, the cash deposit rate will 

be the rate applicable to the PRC 

exporter that supplied that non–PRC 

exporter. These deposit requirements, 

when imposed, shall remain in effect 

until publication of the final results of 

the next administrative review. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) 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 administrative review and this 

notice are in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, 19 CFR 

351.213, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

Final Results of Expedited Sunset 

Review of Countervailing Duty Order: 

Prestressed Concrete Steel Wire 

Strand from India 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On December 1, 2008, the 

Department of Commerce (‘‘the 

Department’’) initiated a sunset review 

of the countervailing duty (‘‘CVD’’) 

order on prestressed concrete steel wire 

strand (‘‘PC strand’’) from India 

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). 

See Initiation of Five–Year (‘‘Sunset’’) 

Reviews, 73 FR 72770 (December 1, 

2008). On the basis of a notice of intent 

to participate and an adequate 

substantive response filed on behalf of 

domestic interested parties and an 

inadequate response (in this case, no 

response) from respondent interested 

parties, the Department decided to 

conduct an expedited sunset review of 

this CVD order pursuant to section 

751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B). As a result of this 

review, the Department finds that 

revocation of the CVD order would be 

likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of a countervailable subsidy 

at the level indicated in the ‘‘Final 

Results of Review’’ section of this 

notice. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 8, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 1, 2008, the Department 

initiated a sunset review of the CVD 

order on PC strand from India pursuant 

to section 751(c) of the Act. See 

Initiation of Five–Year (‘‘Sunset’’) 

Reviews, 73 FR 72770 (December 1, 

2008). The Department received a notice 

of intent to participate on behalf of 

American Spring Wire Corp., Insteel 

Wire Products Company, and Sumiden 

Wire Products Corporation (collectively, 

‘‘petitioners’’), within the deadline 

specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). 

The petitioners claimed interested party 

status under section 771(9)(C) of the 

Act, as domestic producers of PC strand. 

The Department received a complete 

substantive response from the 

petitioners within the 30–day deadline 

specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). 

However, the Department did not 

receive a substantive response from any 

respondent interested party to this 

proceeding. As a result, pursuant to 

section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the 

Department conducted an expedited 

review of this order. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to this order 

is prestressed concrete steel wire (‘‘PC 

strand’’), which is steel strand produced 

from wire of non–stainless, non– 

galvanized steel, which is suitable for 

use in prestressed concrete (both pre– 

tensioned and post–tensioned) 

applications. The product definition 

encompasses covered and uncovered 

strand and all types, grades, and 

diameters of PC strand. 

The merchandise under this order is 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

7312.10.3010 and 7312.10.3012 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 

under investigation is dispositive. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in this review are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum (‘‘Decision 

Memorandum’’) from John M. 

Andersen, Acting Deputy Assistant 

Secretary for Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Operations, to 

Ronald K. Lorentzen, Acting Assistant 

Secretary for Import Administration, 

dated March 31, 2009, which is hereby 

adopted by this notice. Parties can find 

a complete discussion of all issues 

raised in this review and the 

corresponding recommendation in this 

public memorandum which is on file in 

the Central Records Unit room B–1117 

of the main Commerce building. In 

addition, a complete version of the 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly on the Web at http:// 

ia.ita.doc.gov/frn. The paper copy and 

electronic version of the Decision 

Memorandum are identical in content. 

Final Results of Review 

The Department determines that 

revocation of the countervailing duty 

order would be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of a 

countervailable subsidy at the rate listed 

below: 

Producers/Exporters Net Countervailable 

Subsidy (percent)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

In accordance with Executive Order 

12862, the National Institute of 

Standards and Technology (NIST), a 

non-regulatory agency of the 

Department of Commerce, proposes to 

conduct a number of surveys, both 

quantitative and qualitative, designed to 

evaluate our current programs from a 

customer’s perspective. NIST proposes 

to perform program evaluation data 

collections by means of, but not limited 

to, focus groups, reply cards that 

accompany product distributions, and 

Web-based surveys and dialogue boxes 

that offer customers the opportunity to 

express their views on the programs 

they are asked to evaluate. NIST will 

limit its inquiries to data collections 

that solicit strictly voluntary opinions 

and will not collect information that is 

required or regulated. Steps will be 

taken to assure anonymity of 

respondents in each activity covered 

under this request. 

II. Method of Collection 

NIST will collect this information by 

mail, fax, electronically, telephone and 

person-to-person sessions. 

III. Data 

OMB Control Number: 0693–0033. 

Form Number: None. 

Type of Review: Regular submission. 

Affected Public: Business or other for 

profit organizations, not-for-profit 

institutions, individuals or households, 

Federal Government, State, Local, or 

Tribal Government. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

12,000. 

Estimated Time per Response: Varied 

dependent upon the data collection. The 

response time may vary from two 

minutes for a response card or two 

hours for focus group participation. The 

average time per response is expected to 

be 30 minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 3,022. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost to 

Public: $0. 

IV. Request for Comments 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden 

(including hours and cost) of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for OMB 

approval of this information collection; 

they also will become a matter of public 

record.
