Currency Conversions 

CP Kelco reported certain U.S. sales 

prices and certain U.S. expenses and 

adjustments in euros. Therefore, we 

made euro-U.S. dollar currency 

conversions, where appropriate, based 

on the exchange rates in effect on the 

dates of the U.S. sales, as certified by 

the Federal Reserve Board, in 

accordance with section 773A(a) of the 

Tariff Act. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

As a result of our review, we 

preliminarily find the following 

weighted-average dumping margin 

exists for the period July 1, 2007, 

through June 30, 2008: 

Manufacturer / Exporter 

Weighted Average 

Margin

CP Kelco ....................... 11.94% 

The Department will disclose 

calculations performed within five days 

of the date of publication of this notice 

in accordance with section 351.224(b) of 

the Department’s regulations. An 

interested party may request a hearing 

within thirty days of publication. See 

section 351.310(c) of the Department’s 

regulations. Any hearing, if requested, 

will be held 37 days after the date of 

publication, or the first business day 

thereafter, unless the Department alters 

the date pursuant to section 351.310(d) 

of the Department’s regulations. 

Requests should contain the party’s 

name, address, and telephone number, 

the number of participants, and a list of 

the issues to be discussed. At the 

hearing, each party may make an 

affirmative presentation only on issues 

raised in that party’s case brief and may 

make rebuttal presentations only on 

arguments included in that party’s 

rebuttal brief. 

Comments 

Interested parties may submit case 

briefs no later than 30 days after the 

date of publication of these preliminary 

results of review. See 19 CFR 

351.309(c). Rebuttal briefs, limited to 

issues raised in the case briefs, may be 

filed no later than 35 days after the date 

of publication of this notice. See 19 CFR 

351.309(d). Parties who submit 

arguments in these proceedings are 

requested to submit with the argument: 

1) a statement of the issue; 2) a brief 

summary of the argument; and 3) a table

submitting written comments should 

provide the Department with an 

additional copy of the public version of 

any such comments on diskette. The 

Department will issue final results of 

this administrative review, including 

the results of our analysis of the issues 

in any such written comments or at a 

hearing, within 120 days of publication 

of these preliminary results. 

Assessment Rates 

The Department shall determine, and 

CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 

all appropriate entries. Upon 

completion of this administrative 

review, pursuant to section 351.212(b) 

of the Department’s regulations, the 

Department will calculate an assessment 

rate on all appropriate entries. CP Kelco 

has reported entered values for all of its 

sales of subject merchandise to the U.S. 

during the POR. Therefore, in 

accordance with section 351.212(b)(1) of 

the Department’s regulations, we will 

calculate importer-specific duty 

assessment rates on the basis of the ratio 

of the total amount of antidumping 

duties calculated for the examined sales 

to the total entered value of the 

examined sales of that importer. These 

rates will be assessed uniformly on all 

entries the respective importers made 

during the POR. Where the assessment 

rate is above de minimis, we will 

instruct CBP to assess duties on all 

entries of subject merchandise by that 

importer. The Department will issue 

appropriate assessment instructions 

directly to CBP fifteen days after 

publication of the final results of 

review. 

The Department clarified its 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on 

May 6, 2003. See Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). This 

clarification will apply to entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR 

produced by the respondent for which 

it did not know its merchandise was 

destined for the United States. In such 

instances, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate un-reviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction. Id. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

Furthermore, the following deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

completion of the final results of this 

administrative review for all shipments 

of CMC from Finland entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the publication 

date of the final results of this 

administrative review, as provided by 

section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act: 1) the 

cash deposit rate for CP Kelco will be 

the rate established in the final results 

of review; 2) if the exporter is not a firm 

covered in this review or the less-thanfair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the 

manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate 

will be the rate established for the most 

recent period for the manufacturer of 

the merchandise; and 3) if neither the 

exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm 

covered in this or any previous review 

conducted by the Department, the cash 

deposit rate will be the all-others rate of 

6.65 percent ad valorem from the LTFV 

investigation. See Notice of 

Antidumping Duty Orders: Purified 

Carboxymethylcellulose from Finland, 

Mexico, the Netherlands and Sweden, 

70 FR 39734 (July 11, 2005). These 

deposit requirements, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f) 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 the antidumping duties. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act. 

Dated: April 2, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Chapter 

19 of the North American Free-Trade 

Agreement (‘‘Agreement’’) established a 

mechanism to replace domestic judicial 

review of final determinations in 

antidumping and countervailing duty 

cases involving imports from a NAFTA 

country with review by independent 

binational panels. When a Request for 

Panel Review is filed, a panel is 

established to act in place of national 

courts to review expeditiously the final 

determination to determine whether it 

conforms with the antidumping or 

countervailing duty law of the country 

that made the determination. 

Under Article 1904 of the Agreement, 

which came into force on January 1, 

1994, the Government of the United 

States, the Government of Canada, and 

the Government of Mexico established 

Rules of Procedure for Article 1904 

Binational Panel Reviews (‘‘Rules’’). 

These Rules were published in the 

Federal Register on February 23, 1994 

(59 FR 8686). The panel review in this 

matter was requested. 

Pursuant to these Rules and 

terminated in accordance with the 

settlement agreement. 

Dated: April 3, 2009.
