Antifriction Bearings (Other Than Tapered Roller Bearings) and 
Parts Thereof From Japan; Amended Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Amended Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On February 28, 1995, the Department of Commerce (the 
Department) published the final results of its administrative reviews 
of the antidumping duty orders on antifriction bearings (other than 
tapered roller bearings) and parts thereof (AFBs) from Japan (60 FR 
10900). On September 25, 1995, the Court of International Trade (CIT) 
ordered the Department to correct two ministerial errors in the final 
results with respect to AFBs from Japan sold by Izumoto Seiko Co., Ltd. 
(IKS). Accordingly, we are amending our final results of administrative 
review of the antidumping duty orders on AFBs from Japan with respect 
to IKS. The reviews cover the period May 1, 1992, through April 30, 
1993. The ``classes or kinds'' of merchandise covered by these reviews 
are ball bearings and parts thereof (BBs), cylindrical roller bearings 
and parts thereof (CRBs), and spherical plain bearings and parts 
thereof (SPBs).

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 19, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 28, 1995, the Department published the final results of 
antidumping duty administrative review, partial termination, and 
revocation in part of the antidumping duty orders on antifriction 
bearings (other than tapered roller bearings) and parts thereof from 
France, et al. (60 FR 10900). The review period is May 1, 1992, through 
April 30, 1993. The classes or kinds of merchandise covered by these 
reviews are BBs, CRBs, and SPBs. For a detailed description of the 
products covered under these classes or kinds of merchandise, including 
a compilation of all pertinent scope determinations, see the ``Scope 
Appendix'' of the final results referenced above.
    One respondent, IKS, challenged the final results before the CIT, 
alleging ministerial errors in the final results for AFBs from Japan. 
On September 25, 1995, the CIT ordered the Department to correct the 
errors and publish the amended final results in the Federal Register.
    The CIT ordered the Department to make the following corrections to 
its analysis for IKS: 1) to correct the erroneous calculation of a 
negative United States price (USP) for certain observations; and 2) to 
correct the erroneous inclusion of movement expenses incurred in Japan 
in the calculation of movement expenses (MOVT) for further manufactured 
merchandise. We have corrected the ministerial errors in IKS's margin 
calculations for the amended final results of review for the period May 
1, 1992, through April 30, 1993.
    Based on the correction of the ministerial errors in our 
calculations for IKS, we have determined that the following percentage 
weighted-average margins exist for the period May 1, 1992, through 
April 30, 1993:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
         Manufacturer/exporter, and country           BBs    CRBs   SPBs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
IKS, Japan.........................................   4.65  ( \1\       
                                                                )  ( \1\
                                                                       )
------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ No U.S. sales during the review period.                             

    Based on these results, the Department will instruct the Customs 
Service to collect cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties on all 
appropriate entries in accordance with the procedures discussed in the 
final results of these reviews. These deposit requirements are 
effective for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of 
publication of this notice and shall remain in effect until publication 
of the final results of the next administrative review.
    This notice serves as a 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 the 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 amendment of final results of review and notice are in 
accordance with section 751(f) of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1673(d)) 
and 19 CFR 353.28(c).

    Dated: December 14, 1995.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
