 SUMMARY: On July 1, 2005, the Department of Commerce (“the Department”) initiated the sunset review of the antidumping duty order on paper clips from the People's Republic of China (“China”). 
                        *See Initiation of Five-year (“Sunset”) Reviews*, 70 FR 38101 (July 1, 2005). On the basis of Notices of Intent to Participate, adequate substantive responses filed on behalf of domestic interested parties, and a lack of response from respondent interested parties, the Department conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review. As a result of this sunset review, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping. The dumping margins are identified in the 
                        *Final Results of Review*
                         section of this notice.
 EFFECTIVE DATE: November 7, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On July 1, 2005, the Department published the notice of initiation of the sunset review of the antidumping duty order on paper clips from China pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”). 
                    *See Initiation of Five-year (“Sunset”) Reviews*, 70 FR 38101 (July 1, 2005). On July 11, 2005 and July 16, 2005, the Department received a Notice of Intent to Participate from Officemate International Corporation and ACCO Brands, Inc., the domestic interested 
                    ( print page 67434)
                    parties, within the deadline specified in section 351.218(d)(1)(i) of the Department's regulations. The domestic interested parties claimed interested parties status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as manufacturers, producers, or wholesalers in the United States of a domestic like product. On July 29, 2005, and August 1, 2005, the Department received complete substantive responses from the domestic interested parties within the deadline specified in section 351.218(d)(3)(i) of the Department's regulations. The Department did not receive a response from any respondent interested parties to this proceeding. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and section 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2) of the Department's regulations, the Department conducted an expedited review of this order. Scope of the Order The products covered by this order are certain paper clips, wholly of wire of base metal, whether or not galvanized, whether or not plated with nickel or other base metal (e.g., copper), with a wire diameter between 0.025 inches and 0.075 inches (0.64 to 1.91 millimeters), regardless of physical configuration, except as specifically excluded. The products subject to this order may have a rectangular or ring-like shape and include, but are not limited to, clips commercially referred to as No. 1 clips, No. 3 clips, Jumbo or Giant clips, Gem clips, Frictioned clips, Perfect Gems, Marcel Gems, Universal clips, Nifty clips, Peerless clips, Ring clips, and Glide-On clips. The products subject to this order are currently classifiable under subheading 8305.90.3010 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”). Specifically excluded from the scope of this order are plastic and vinyl covered paper clips, butterfly clips, binder clips, or other paper fasteners that are not made wholly of wire of base metal and are covered under a separate subheading of the HTSUS. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of this order is dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in this review are addressed in the “Issues and Decision Memorandum” (“Decision Memo”) from Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Operations, to Joseph A. Spetrini, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, dated October 31, 2005, which is hereby adopted by this notice. The issues discussed in the Decision Memo include the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail if the order were revoked. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in this review and the corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum which is on file in room B-099 of the main Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Decision Memo can be accessed directly on the Web at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/​frn/​. The paper copy and electronic version of the Decision Memo are identical in content. Final Results of Review We determine that revocation of the antidumping duty order on paper clips from China would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the following weighted-average percentage margins: Manufacturers/Exporters/Producers
Weighted Average Margin (percent)Shanghai Lansheng Corporation
57.64Zhejiang Light Industrial Products Import & Export Corporation
46.01Zhejiang Machinery and Equipment Import & Export Corporation
