SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On December 23, 1994, the

Department published in the Federal

Register (59 FR 66294) the preliminary

results of its administrative review of

the antidumping duty order on SBTS

from Korea (55 FR 4215, February 7,

1990). The Department has now

completed that administrative review in

accordance with section 751 of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the

Tariff Act).

Scope of the Review

The products covered by this review

are SBTS, currently classifiable under

Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) item

numbers 8517.30.2000, 8517.30.2500,

8517.30.3000, 8517.10.0020,

8517.10.0040, 8517.10.0050,

8517.10.0070, 8517.10.0080,

8517.90.1000, 8517.90.1500,

8517.90.3000, 8518.30.1000,

8504.40.0004, 8504.40.0008,

8504.40.0010, 8517.81.0010,

8517.81.0020, 8517.90.4000, and

8504.40.0015.

The HTS item numbers are provided

for convenience and Customs purposes.

They are not determinative of the

products subject to the order. The

written description remains dispositive.

Certain SBTS are telephone systems,

whether complete or incomplete,

assembled or unassembled, with

intercom or internal calling capability

and total non-blocking port capacities of

between 2 and 256 ports, and discrete

subassemblies designed for use in such

systems. A subassembly is ‘‘designed’’

for use in a small business telephone

system if it functions to its full

capability only when operated as part of

a small business telephone system.

These subassemblies are defined as

follows:

(1) Telephone sets and consoles,

consisting of proprietary, corded

telephone sets or consoles. A console

has the ability to perform certain

functions including: Answer all lines in

the system; monitor the status of other

phone sets; and transfer calls. The term

‘‘telephone sets and consoles’’ is

defined to include any combination of

two or more of the following items,

when imported or shipped in the same

container, with or without additional

apparatus: housing; hand set; cord (line

or hand set); power supply; telephone

set circuit cards; console circuit cards.

(2) Control and switching equipment,

whether denominated as a key service

unit, control unit, or cabinet/switch.

‘‘Control and switching equipment’’ is

defined to include the units described

in the preceding sentence which consist

of one or more circuit cards or modules

(including backplane circuit cards) and

one or more of the following items,

when imported or shipped in the same

container as the circuit cards or

modules, with or without additional

apparatus: connectors to accept circuit

cards or modules; building wiring.

(3) Circuit cards and modules,

including power supplies. These may be

incorporated into control and switching

equipment or telephone sets and

consoles, or they may be imported or

shipped separately. A power supply

converts or divides input power of not

more than 2400 watts into output power

of not more than 1800 watts supplying

DC power of approximately 5 volts, 24

volts, and 48 volts, as well as 90 volt AC

ringing capability.

The following merchandise has been

excluded from this order: (1)

Nonproprietary industry-standard (‘‘tip/

ring’’) telephone sets and other

subassemblies that are not specifically

designed for use in a covered system,

even though a system may be adapted

to use such nonproprietary equipment

to provide some system functions; (2)

telephone answering machines or

facsimile machines integrated with

telephone sets; and (3) adjunct software

used on external data processing

equipment.

The review covers one manufacturer/

exporter of this merchandise to the

United States, SBW. The review period

is February 1, 1993, through January 31,

1994.

Analysis of Comments Received

We gave interested parties an

opportunity to comment on the

preliminary results as provided by

section 353.22(c) of the Department’s

regulations. We received one comment

from the respondent.

Comment Received From SBW

Comment: SBW argues that the

Department should include an

adjustment for duty drawback with

respect to one U.S. sale for which duty

drawback has not yet been received.

SBW states that it routinely submits the

required documentation to Customs and

receives the duty drawback allowance.

However, at the time of submission,

SBW had not received duty drawback

with respect to this one sale. Also, SBW

asserts that it has already applied for

drawback and has no reason to believe

that it will not be granted. SBW requests

that the Department make the duty

drawback adjustment for the sale in

question by using the higher of two

amounts of drawback reported for the

two groups of export transactions for the

period of review.

Department’s Position: We disagree

with SBW. On March 10, 1995, SBW

informed the Department that drawback

had still not been received with respect

to this sale. Thus, more than a year and

a half has elapsed since the date of

shipment, and SBW has not received

any duty drawback. This is more than

sufficient time for SBW to collect

drawback. In addition, SBW received

duty drawback for other exports of this

merchandise shipped at about the same

time and even later. Accordingly,

because SBW has not received drawback

for this sale, we have determined that an

adjustment for duty drawback is not

appropriate.

Final Results of Review

As a result of this review, we

determine that the following weightedaverage dumping margin exists for the

period February 1, 1993, through

January 31, 1994:

Manufacturer/exporter

Margin

(percent)

SsangBangWool Inc ....................... 2.86

The Department will instruct the

Customs Service to assess antidumping

duties on all appropriate entries.

Individual differences between U.S.

price and foreign market value may vary

from the percentage stated above. The

Department will issue appraisement

instructions concerning all respondents

directly to the Customs Service.

Furthermore, the following deposit

requirements will be effective upon

publication of these final results of

administrative review for all shipments

of the subject merchandise entered, or

withdrawn from warehouse, for

consumption, as provided by section

751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act: (1) The cash

deposit rate for the reviewed company

will be the rate shown above; (2) for

previously reviewed or investigated

companies not listed above, the cash

deposit rate will continue to be the

company-specific rate published for the

most recent period; (3) if the exporter is

not a firm covered in this review, a prior

review, or the original less-than-fairvalue (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 (4) the cash

deposit rate for all other manufacturers

or exporters will continue to be 13.90

percent, the ‘‘all others’’ rate established

in the LTFV investigation.

These deposit requirements, when

imposed, shall remain in effect until

publication of the final results of the

next administrative review.

This notice serves as a final reminder

to importers of their responsibility

under 19 CFR 353.26 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 notice also serves as a reminder

to parties subject to administrative

protective orders (APOs) of their

responsibility concerning disposition of

proprietary information disclosed under

APO in accordance with 19 CFR

353.34(d). Timely written notification of

the return/destruction of APO materials

or conversion to judicial protective

order is hereby requested. Failure to

comply with the regulations and the

terms of an APO is a sanctionable

violation.

This administrative review and notice

are in accordance with section 751(a)(1)

of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1))

and 19 CFR 353.22.

Determination To Revoke

Countervailing Duty Order; Certain

Apparel from Peru

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of determination to

revoke countervailing duty order.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce

(the Department) is revoking the

countervailing duty order on certain

apparel from Peru because it is no

longer of interest to interested parties.

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 1, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On March 1, 1995, the Department

published in the Federal Register (60

FR 11075) its intent to revoke the

countervailing duty order on certain

apparel from Peru (48 FR 9871; March

12, 1985). Additionally, as required by

19 CFR 355.25(d)(4)(ii)(1994), the

Department served, by certified mail,

written notice of its intent to revoke this

countervailing duty order on each party

listed on its most current service list.

Determination to Revoke

The Department may revoke a

countervailing duty order if it concludes

that the order is no longer of interest to

interested parties. We conclude that

there is no interest in a countervailing

duty order when no interested party (as

defined in sections 355.2 (i)(3), (i)(4),

(i)(5), and (i)(6) of the Department’s

regulations) has requested an

administrative review for at least five

consecutive review periods and when

no domestic interested party objects to

the revocation (19 CFR 355.25(d)(4)(iii)).

We received no requests for

administrative review for the previous

five consecutive review periods and no

objections to our notice of intent to

revoke the countervailing duty order.

Therefore, we have concluded that the

countervailing duty order on certain

apparel from Peru is no longer of

interest to interested parties, and we are

revoking this countervailing duty order

in accordance with 19 CFR

355.25(d)(4)(iii).

Further, as required by 19 CFR

355.25(d)(5), the Department is

terminating the suspension of

liquidation on the subject merchandise

as of the effective date of this notice,

and will instruct the Customs Service to

liquidate, without regard to

countervailing duties, all unliquidated

entries of this merchandise exported

from Peru on or after January 1, 1995.

This notice is published in

accordance with 19 CFR

355.25(d)(4)(iii).

Dated: April 18, 1995.
