Tapered Roller Bearings and Parts 

Thereof, Finished and Unfinished, 

From the People’s Republic of China: 

Notice of Preliminary Results of 

Changed Circumstances Review and 

Extension of the Final Results 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On June 28, 2013, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) initiated a changed 

circumstances review (CCR) of the 

antidumping duty (AD) order on tapered 

roller bearings (TRBs) and parts thereof, 

finished and unfinished, from the 

People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 

order to determine whether Shanghai 

General Bearing Co., Ltd. (SGBC/SKF), a 

producer/exporter of TRBs in the PRC, 

is the successor-in-interest to a company 

revoked from the AD order on TRBs in 

1997 (also known as ‘‘SGBC’’). We 

preliminarily determine that SGBC/SKF 

is the successor-in-interest to SGBC. 

Interested parties are invited to 

comment on these preliminary results. 

DATES: Effective Date: November 21, 

2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 15, 1987, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

AD order on TRBs from the PRC.1 On 

February 11, 1997, the Department 

revoked the order on TRBs from the PRC 

with respect to merchandise produced 

and exported by SGBC, effective as of 

June 1, 1994.2

Effective August 1, 2012, the majority 

shareholder of SGBC, the General 

Bearing Corporation (GBC), merged with 

AB SKF (SKF) and, as a result of the 

merger, both GBC and SGBC became 

part of the SKF Group. On February 13, 

2013, SGBC/SKF 3 requested that the 

Department conduct a CCR pursuant to 

19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii) to determine 

whether it is the successor-in-interest to 

SGBC as it existed prior to its affiliation 

with SKF. 

On June 28, 2013, the Department 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice initiating a CCR to address this 

question.4 Between July 2013 and 

February 2014, the Department 

requested additional information from 

SGBC/SKF, and SGBC/SKF submitted 

its responses to these requests from 

August 2013 through March 2014. 

Between September 2013 and July 2014, 

we received comments on SGBC/SKF’s 

submissions from the Timken Company, 

the petitioner in this proceeding. In 

December 2013, we also received 

comments from Stemco LP (Stemco), a 

U.S. manufacturer and importer of 

TRBs.
