Initiation of Changed Circumstances

Antidumping Duty Administrative

Review

Pursuant to section 751(d) of the Act,

the Department may partially revoke an

antidumping duty order based on a

review under section 751(b) of the Act

(i.e., a changed circumstances review).

Section 751(b)(1) of the Act requires the

Department to conduct a changed

circumstances administrative review

upon receipt of a request containing

information concerning changed

circumstances sufficient to warrant a

review.

The Department’s regulations at 19

C.F.R. 353.25(d) permit the Department

to conduct a changed circumstances

administrative review under 19 C.F.R.

353.22(f) provided that the Department

concludes from the available

information, including information in a

request for a changed circumstances

review, that changed circumstances

sufficient to warrant a review exists.

In its July 20, 1995 request for a

changed circumstances review and

partial revocation of the antidumping

duty order, Samsung noted: 1) the

decision of the Court of Appeals for the

Federal Circuit in Daewoo Electronics

Co., Ltd., et al. v. United States, 6 F.3d

1511 (Fed. Cir. 1993), cert. denied, 114

S. Ct. 2672 (1994), which Samsung

claims made it possible for the first time

for it to contemplate the possibility of

de minimis margins for three or more

consecutive review periods; 2) that as a

direct result of that decision, Samsung

has now established that it has not been

dumping CTVs in the United States for

six consecutive years; and 3) that it has

not shipped CTVs to the U.S. since

1991.

We have determined that the unique

circumstances presented by Samsung in

this proceeding constitute changed

circumstances sufficient to warrant a

review under section 751(b) of the Act

and 19 CFR 353.22(f) of the

Department’s regulations. Specifically,

the statute, the Department’s regulations

and our international obligations

anticipate that a methodology exist

whereby parties that have demonstrated

a history of not selling at less than

normal value and have established that

it is not likely that they will, in the

future, sell at less than normal value

may obtain a partial revocation of the

order. Normally, the methodology

established by section 353.25 (a) and (b)

is adequate to accomplish that purpose;

however, the combination of the timing

of certain court decisions, the timing of

certain results of administrative review

in this proceeding, and the coincidence

of these events with the company’s

decision to stop shipping from Korea

may have prevented the regulation from

operating as intended with respect to

Samsung. Therefore, in accordance with

section 751(b) of the Act and 19 CFR

353.22(f) of the Department’s

regulations, we are initiating this

changed circumstances administrative

review in order to determine whether a

partial revocation of the order would be

appropriate as to Samsung.

On January 19, 1996, we initiated an

anti-circumvention inquiry to determine

whether Samsung is circumventing the

antidumping duty order by completing

or assembling CTVs in Mexico and

Thailand for exportation to the United

States. We will be conducting this

changed circumstances review

concurrently with the anticircumvention inquiry, and we will

consider the relevance of our findings in

the anti-circumvention inquiry to this

changed circumstances review.

This notice is in accordance with

section 751(b)(1) of the Act and sections

353.22(f) and 353.25(d) of the

Department’s regulations.

Dated: June 11, 1996.

Robert S. LaRussa,

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import

Administration.
