Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) has received two 

requests for new shipper reviews of the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

preserved mushrooms from the People’s 

Republic of China (PRC). See Notice of 

Antidumping Duty order: Certain 

Preserved Mushrooms from the People’s 

Republic of China, 64 FR 8310 

(February 19, 1999). In accordance with 

section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Tariff Act), and 

19 CFR 351.214(d) (2008), we are 

initiating antidumping duty new 

shipper reviews of Zhejiang Iceman 

Group Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang Iceman) and 

Zhangzhou Gangchang Foods Co., Ltd. 

(Zhangzhou Gangchang). The period of 

review (POR) of these new shipper 

reviews is February 1, 2008, through 

July 31, 2008. 

DATES: Effective Date: October 2, 2008.

0649, respectively. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 19, 1999, the Department 

published the antidumping duty order 

on certain preserved mushrooms from 

the PRC. See Notice of Amendment of 

Final Determination of Sales at Less 

Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty 

Order: Certain Preserved Mushrooms 

From the People’s Republic of China, 64 

FR 8308 (February 19, 1999). Thus, the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

preserved mushrooms has a February 

anniversary month and a semiannual 

anniversary month of August. The 

Department received a request for new 

shipper reviews from Zhangzhou 

Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman on 

August 29, 2008. See August 29, 2008, 

letter from Zhangzhou Gangchang to the 

Secretary of Commerce requesting a new 

shipper review; and August 29, 2008, 

letter from Zhejiang Iceman to the 

Secretary of Commerce requesting a new 

shipper review. Therefore, pursuant to 

19 CFR 351.214(d), Zhangzhou 

Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman both 

made their requests during the 

semiannual anniversary month. 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i) of 

the Tariff Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b), 

Zhangzhou Gangchang certified that it is 

both an exporter and producer of the 

subject merchandise, and that it did not 

export subject merchandise to the 

United States during the period of the 

investigation (POI) (July 1, 1997, 

through December 31, 1997). See section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the Tariff Act and 19 

CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i). Likewise, Zhejiang 

Iceman certified that it is both an 

exporter and producer of the subject 

merchandise, and that it did not export 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POI. Id. Pursuant to 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the Tariff 

Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A), 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman both certified that since the 

investigation was initiated, they have 

not been affiliated with any producer or 

exporter who exported the subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POI. Because these new shipper 

reviews involve imports from a nonmarket economy country, in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman also certified that their export 

activities are not controlled by the 

central government. Pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iv), Zhangzhou Gangchang 

and Zhejiang Iceman also submitted 

documentation establishing the date on 

which they first shipped the subject 

merchandise to the United States, the 

volume of that shipment, and the date 

of their first sale to an unaffiliated 

customer in the United States. 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman also certified they had no 

shipments to the United States during 

the period subsequent to their first 

shipments. 

The Department conducted a Customs 

database query in an attempt to confirm 

that Zhangzhou Gangchang’s and 

Zhejiang Iceman’s shipments of subject 

merchandise entered the United States 

for consumption and that liquidation of 

such entries had been suspended for 

antidumping duties. See September 26, 

2008, Zhangzhou Gangchang New 

Shipper Review Initiation Checklist, 

question 18; and Zhejiang Iceman New 

Shipper Review Initiation Checklist, 

question 18. The Department also 

examined whether U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) confirmed that 

such entries were made during the new 

shipper review POR. 

Initiation of Review 

Based on information on the record 

and in accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and section 

351.214(d) of the Department’s 

regulations, we find that the requests 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman submitted meet the statutory 

and regulatory requirements for 

initiation of a new shipper review. 

Accordingly, we are initiating new 

shipper reviews of the antidumping 

duty order on certain preserved 

mushrooms from the People’s Republic 

of China manufactured and exported by 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman. These reviews cover the period 

February 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008. 

We intend to issue the preliminary 

results of these reviews no later than 

180 days after the date on which this 

review is initiated, and the final results 

within 90 days after the date on which 

we issue the preliminary results. See 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.214(h)(i). 

In cases involving non-market 

economies, the Department requires that 

a company seeking to establish 

eligibility for an antidumping duty rate 

separate from the country-wide rate 

provide evidence of de jure and de facto 

absence of government control over the 

company’s export activities. See Notice 

of Final Determination of Sales at Less 

Than Fair Value: Bicycles From the 

People’s Republic of China, 61 FR 

19026, 19027 (April 30, 1996). 

Accordingly, we will issue 

questionnaires to Zhangzhou Gangchang 

and Zhejiang Iceman, each of which 

will include a separate rates section. 

These reviews will proceed if the 

responses provide sufficient indication 

that Zhangzhou Gangchang and 

Zhejiang Iceman are not subject to either 

de jure or de facto government control 

with respect to its exports of preserved 

mushrooms. However, if either 

Zhangzhou Gangchang or Zhejiang 

Iceman do not demonstrate eligibility 

for a separate rates, then the respective 

company will be deemed not separate 

mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES

57334 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 192 / Thursday, October 2, 2008 / Notices 

from other companies that exported 

during the POI and the new shipper 

review will be rescinded as to the 

company. 

On August 17, 2006, the Pension 

Protection Act of 2006 (H.R. 4) was 

signed into law. Section 1632 of H.R. 4 

temporarily suspends the authority of 

the Department to instruct CBP to 

collect a bond or other security in lieu 

of a cash deposit in new shipper 

reviews. Therefore, the posting of a 

bond under section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of 

the Act in lieu of a cash deposit is not 

available in this case. Importers of 

certain preserved mushrooms 

manufactured and exported by 

Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang 

Iceman must continue to pay a cash 

deposit of estimated antidumping duties 

on each entry of subject merchandise 

(i.e., certain preserved mushrooms) at 

the current PRC-wide rate of 198.63 

percent. 

Interested parties may submit 

applications for disclosure under 

administrative protective order in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and 

351.306. 

This initiation and this notice are 

issued and published in accordance 

with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 

sections 351.214 and 351.221(c)(1)(i) of 

the Department’s regulations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 25, 2004, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

amended antidumping duty order on 

certain color television receivers from 

the PRC. See Notice of Amended 

Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Color 

Television Receivers from the People’s 

Republic of China, 69 FR 35583 (June 

25, 2004) (‘‘Order’’). On June 9, 2008, 

the Department published a notice of 

‘‘Opportunity to Request an 

Administrative Review’’ of the Order for 

the POR. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

To Request Administrative Review, 73 

FR 32557, 32558 (June 9, 2008). On June 

26, 2008, the petitioner requested that 

the Department conduct an 

administrative review of sales of 

merchandise by the following 13 

companies: Haier Electric Appliances 

International Co., Hisense Import and 

Export Co., Ltd., Konka Group 

Company, Ltd., Philips Consumer 

Electronics Co. of Suzhou Ltd., 

Shenzhen Chaungwei-RGB Electronics 

Co., Ltd., Sichuan Changhong Electric 

Co., Ltd., Starlight International 

Holdings, Ltd., Star Light Electronics 

Co., Ltd., Star Fair Electronics Co., Ltd., 

Starlight Marketing Development Ltd., 

SVA Group Co., Ltd., TCL Holding 

Company Ltd., and Xiamen Overseas 

Chinese Electronic Co., Ltd. In response 

to this request, the Department 

published the initiation of the 

antidumping duty administrative review 

on certain color television receivers 

from the PRC on July 30, 2008. See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Request for Revocation in 

Part, 73 FR 44220, 44221 (July 30, 

2008). No other party requested a 

review. 

On August 18, 2008, TCL Multimedia 

Technology Holdings Ltd., a PRC 

producer of subject merchandise, and its 

wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, TTE 

Technology, Inc., a U.S. importer of 

subject merchandise, (collectively, 

‘‘TCL’’), submitted a letter in which it 

claimed that the subject merchandise it 

entered for consumption during the 

review period was re-exported to 

Canada and not sold within the United 

States to unaffiliated customers. For this 

reason, it requested that the Department 

rescind the review with respect to TCL 

and liquidate TCL’s entries during the 

review period without regard to 

antidumping duties. TCL repeated its 

request on September 23, 2008. 

On August 21, 2008, Xiamen Overseas 

Chinese Electronic Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xiamen’’) 

provided a submission in which it 

alleged that this administrative review 

should be terminated because the 

review request was not made by a 

domestic interested party as required by 

the Department’s regulations. According 

to Xiamen, the petitioner filed for 

bankruptcy in October 2004, and has 

not produced CTVs in the United States 

in nearly two years. Since the petitioner 

did not produce CTVs during the review 

period, Xiamen argued that it is not 

entitled to request an administrative 

review of this order. 

On September 17, 2008, petitioner 

withdrew its request of review of all 

companies for which it requested 

review. 

Rescission of the Administrative 

Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the 

Secretary will rescind an administrative 

review under this section, in whole or 

in part, if a party that requested a review 

withdraws the request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of notice of 

initiation of the requested review. 

Petitioner withdrew its requests for 

review for all companies within the 90- 

day time limit. No other company had 

requested a review of these or any other 

companies. Therefore, in response to the 

withdrawal of requests for 

administrative reviews by petitioner, the 

Department hereby rescinds the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain color 

television receivers from the PRC for the 

period June 1, 2007, through May 31, 

2008, for all 13 companies listed above. 

For companies that have a separate rate, 

the Department intends to issue 

assessment instructions to the U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) 

15 days after the date of publication of 

this notice. Since this is a full rescission 

of the administrative review, we will 

also issue liquidation instructions for 

mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
