Final Rule.7 The Department intends to 

reject factual submissions in any 

proceeding segments if the submitting 

party does not comply with applicable 

revised certification requirements. 

Revised Extension of Time Limits 

Regulation 

On September 20, 2013, the 

Department modified its regulation 

concerning the extension of time limits 

for submissions in antidumping and 

countervailing duty proceedings: Final 

Rule, 78 FR 57790 (September 20, 2013). 

The modification clarifies that parties 

may request an extension of time limits 

before a time limit established under 

Part 351 expires, or as otherwise 

specified by the Secretary. In general, an 

extension request will be considered 

untimely if it is filed after the time limit 

established under Part 351 expires. For 

submissions which are due from 

multiple parties simultaneously, an 

extension request will be considered 

untimely if it is filed after 10:00 a.m. on 

the due date. Examples include, but are 

not limited to: (1) Case and rebuttal 

briefs, filed pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; 

(2) factual information to value factors 

under 19 CFR 351.408(c), or to measure 

the adequacy of remuneration under 19 

CFR 351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 

CFR 351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, 

clarification and correction filed 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) 

comments concerning the selection of a 

surrogate country and surrogate values 

and rebuttal; (4) comments concerning 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

data; and (5) quantity and value 

questionnaires. Under certain 

circumstances, the Department may 

elect to specify a different time limit by 

which extension requests will be 

considered untimely for submissions 

which are due from multiple parties 

simultaneously. In such a case, the 

Department will inform parties in the 

letter or memorandum setting forth the 

deadline (including a specified time) by 

which extension requests must be filed 

to be considered timely. This 

modification also requires that an 

extension request must be made in a 

separate, stand-alone submission, and 

clarifies the circumstances under which 

the Department will grant untimelyfiled requests for the extension of time 

limits. These modifications are effective 

for all segments initiated on or after 

October 21, 2013. Please review the 

final rule, available at http://

www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-09-20/

html/2013-22853.htm, prior to 

submitting factual information in these 

segments. 

These initiations and this notice are 

in accordance with section 751(a) of the 

Act (19 USC 1675(a)) and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i).

Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the 

People’s Republic of China: Final 

Results of Changed Circumstances 

Review, and Revocation of 

Antidumping Duty Order, in Part 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On August 18, 2014, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

‘‘Department’’) published its 

Preliminary Results of a changed 

circumstances review and intent to 

revoke, in part, the antidumping duty 

(‘‘AD’’) order on wooden bedroom 

furniture from the People’s Republic of 

China (‘‘PRC’’) 1 with respect to certain 

wall bed units.2 The Department 

preliminarily determined that the 

producers accounting for substantially 

all of the production of the domestic 

like product to which the Order pertains 

lack interest in the relief provided by 

the Order with respect to certain wall 

bed units. We invited interested parties 

to comment on the Preliminary Results. 

As no parties submitted comments, the 

Department is making no changes to the 

Preliminary Results. 

DATES: Effective Date: October 30, 2014. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erin 

Kearney or Howard Smith, AD/CVD 

Operations, Office IV, Enforcement and 

Compliance, International Trade 

Administration, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution 

Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; 

telephone: (202) 482–0167 or (202) 482– 

5193, respectively. 

Background 

On January 4, 2005, the Department 

published the Order in the Federal 

Register. On March 12, 2014, the 

Department received a request on behalf 

of Techcraft Manufacturing, Inc. 

(‘‘Techcraft’’) for a changed 

circumstances review to revoke, in part, 

the Order with respect to certain wall 

bed units.3 On May 2, 2014, the 

Department published the Initiation 

Notice for this changed circumstances 

review in the Federal Register.4 On 

August 18, 2014, the Department made 

a preliminary determination that 

producers accounting for substantially 

all of the production of the domestic 

like product lack interest in the relief 

afforded by the Order with respect to 

the certain wall bed units described in 

Techcraft’s Request.5 We invited 

interested parties to submit comments 

in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.309(c)(1)(ii). We received no 

comments. 

Final Results of Changed 

Circumstances Review, and Revocation 

of the Order, in Part 

Because no party submitted 

comments opposing the Department’s 

Preliminary Results, and the record 

contains no other information or 

evidence that calls into question the 

Preliminary Results, the Department 

determines that there are changed 

circumstances that warrant revocation 

of the Order, in part. Specifically, 

because the producers accounting for 

substantially all of the production of the 

domestic like product to which the 

Order pertains lack interest in the relief 

provided by the Order with respect to 

certain wall bed units, we are revoking 

the Order, in part, with respect to 

certain wall bed units by including the 

following language in the scope of the 

Order: 

Also excluded from the scope are certain 

enclosable wall bed units, also referred to as 

murphy beds, which are composed of the 

following three major sections: (1) A metal 

wall frame, which attaches to the wall and 

uses coils or pistons to support the metal 

mattress frame; (2) a metal frame, which has

refund any estimated antidumping 

duties on, all unliquidated entries of the

of an administrative review or automatic 

liquidation.
