SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: 

On September 2, 2008, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) published a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on certain lined paper products (CLPP) 

from China. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

To Request Administrative Review, 73 

FR 51272 (September 2, 2008). Pursuant 

to a request from the Association of 

American School Paper Suppliers 

(petitioner), the Department published 

in the Federal Register the notice of 

initiation of this antidumping duty 

administrative review with respect to 

two companies: 

(1) Shanghai Lian Li Paper Products 

Co., Ltd. (Lian Li), and (2) Watanabe 

Group, which consists of Watanabe 

Paper Products (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., 

Watanabe Paper Products (Lingqing) 

Co., Ltd., and Hotrock Stationery 

(Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (collectively, 

Watanabe) for the period of review 

(POR) September 1, 2007, through 

August 31, 2008. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews and Deferral of 

Administrative Review, 73 FR 64305 

(October 29, 2008) (Notice of Initiation). 

Scope of the Order 

The scope of this order includes 

certain lined paper products, typically 

school supplies (for purposes of this 

scope definition, the actual use of or 

labeling these products as school 

supplies or non–school supplies is not 

a defining characteristic) composed of 

or including paper that incorporates 

straight horizontal and/or vertical lines 

on ten or more paper sheets (there shall 

be no minimum page requirement for 

loose leaf filler paper) including but not 

limited to such products as single- and 

multi–subject notebooks, composition 

books, wireless notebooks, loose leaf or 

glued filler paper, graph paper, and 

laboratory notebooks, and with the 

smaller dimension of the paper 

measuring 6 inches to 15 inches 

(inclusive) and the larger dimension of 

the paper measuring 8–3/4 inches to 15 

inches (inclusive). Page dimensions are 

measured size (not advertised, stated, or 

‘‘tear–out’’ size), and are measured as 

they appear in the product (i.e., stitched 

and folded pages in a notebook are 

measured by the size of the page as it 

appears in the notebook page, not the 

size of the unfolded paper). However, 

for measurement purposes, pages with 

tapered or rounded edges shall be 

measured at their longest and widest 

points. Subject lined paper products 

may be loose, packaged or bound using 

any binding method (other than case 

bound through the inclusion of binders 

board, a spine strip, and cover wrap). 

Subject merchandise may or may not 

contain any combination of a front 

cover, a rear cover, and/or backing of 

any composition, regardless of the 

inclusion of images or graphics on the 

cover, backing, or paper. Subject 

merchandise is within the scope of this 

order whether or not the lined paper 

and/or cover are hole punched, drilled, 

perforated, and/or reinforced. Subject 

merchandise may contain accessory or 

informational items including but not 

limited to pockets, tabs, dividers, 

closure devices, index cards, stencils, 

protractors, writing implements, 

reference materials such as 

mathematical tables, or printed items 

such as sticker sheets or miniature 

calendars, if such items are physically 

incorporated , included with, or 

attached to the product, cover and/or 

backing thereto. 

Specifically excluded from the scope 

of this order are: 

• unlined copy machine paper; 

• writing pads with a backing 

(including but not limited to 

products commonly known as 

‘‘tablets,’’ ‘‘note pads,’’ ‘‘legal 

pads,’’ and ‘‘quadrille pads’’), 

provided that they do not have a 

front cover (whether permanent or 

removable). This exclusion does not 

apply to such writing pads if they 

consist of hole–punched or drilled 

filler paper; 

• three–ring or multiple–ring binders, 

or notebook organizers 

incorporating such a ring binder 

provided that they do not include 

subject paper; 

• index cards; 

• printed books and other books that 

are case bound through the 

inclusion of binders board, a spine 

strip, and cover wrap; 

• newspapers; 

• pictures and photographs; 

• desk and wall calendars and 

organizers (including but not 

limited to such products generally 

known as ‘‘office planners,’’ ‘‘time 

books,’’ and ‘‘appointment books’’); 

• telephone logs; 

• address books; 

• columnar pads & tablets, with or 

without covers, primarily suited for 

the recording of written numerical 

business data; 

• lined business or office forms, 

including but not limited to: pre– 

printed business forms, lined 

invoice pads and paper, mailing 

and address labels, manifests, and 

shipping log books; 

• lined continuous computer paper; 

• boxed or packaged writing 

stationary (including but not 

limited to products commonly 

known as ‘‘fine business paper,’’ 

‘‘parchment paper,’’ and 

‘‘letterhead’’), whether or not 

containing a lined header or 

decorative lines; 

• Stenographic pads (‘‘steno pads’’), 

Gregg ruled (‘‘Gregg ruling’’ consists 

of a single- or double–margin 

vertical ruling line down the center 

of the page. For a six–inch by nine– 

inch stenographic pad, the ruling 

would be located approximately 

three inches from the left of the 

book), measuring 6 inches by 9 

inches; 

Also excluded from the scope of this 

order are the following trademarked 

products: 

• FlyTM lined paper products: A 

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 106 / Thursday, June 4, 2009 / Notices 26841 

notebook, notebook organizer, loose 

or glued note paper, with papers 

that are printed with infrared 

reflective inks and readable only by 

a FlyTM pen–top computer. The 

product must bear the valid 

trademark FlyTM (products found to 

be bearing an invalidly licensed or 

used trademark are not excluded 

from the scope). 

• ZwipesTM: A notebook or notebook 

organizer made with a blended 

polyolefin writing surface as the 

cover and pocket surfaces of the 

notebook, suitable for writing using 

a specially–developed permanent 

marker and erase system (known as 

a ZwipesTM pen). This system 

allows the marker portion to mark 

the writing surface with a 

permanent ink. The eraser portion 

of the marker dispenses a solvent 

capable of solubilizing the 

permanent ink allowing the ink to 

be removed. The product must bear 

the valid trademark ZwipesTM

(products found to be bearing an 

invalidly licensed or used 

trademark are not excluded from 

the scope). 

• FiveStar®AdvanceTM : A notebook 

or notebook organizer bound by a 

continuous spiral, or helical, wire 

and with plastic front and rear 

covers made of a blended polyolefin 

plastic material joined by 300 

denier polyester, coated on the 

backside with PVC (poly vinyl 

chloride) coating, and extending the 

entire length of the spiral or helical 

wire. The polyolefin plastic covers 

are of specific thickness; front cover 

is 0.019 inches (within normal 

manufacturing tolerances) and rear 

cover is 0.028 inches (within 

normal manufacturing tolerances). 

Integral with the stitching that 

attaches the polyester spine 

covering, is captured both ends of a 

1’’ wide elastic fabric band. This 

band is located 2–3/8’’ from the top 

of the front plastic cover and 

provides pen or pencil storage. Both 

ends of the spiral wire are cut and 

then bent backwards to overlap 

with the previous coil but 

specifically outside the coil 

diameter but inside the polyester 

covering. During construction, the 

polyester covering is sewn to the 

front and rear covers face to face 

(outside to outside) so that when 

the book is closed, the stitching is 

concealed from the outside. Both 

free ends (the ends not sewn to the 

cover and back) are stitched with a 

turned edge construction. The 

flexible polyester material forms a 

covering over the spiral wire to 

protect it and provide a comfortable 

grip on the product. The product 

must bear the valid trademarks 

FiveStar Advance (products found 

to be bearing an invalidly licensed 

or used trademark are not excluded 

from the scope). 

• FiveStar FlexTM : A notebook, a 

notebook organizer, or binder with 

plastic polyolefin front and rear 

covers joined by 300 denier 

polyester spine cover extending the 

entire length of the spine and 

bound by a 3-ring plastic fixture. 

The polyolefin plastic covers are of 

a specific thickness; front cover is 

0.019 inches (within normal 

manufacturing tolerances) and rear 

cover is 0.028 inches (within 

normal manufacturing tolerances). 

During construction, the polyester 

covering is sewn to the front cover 

face to face (outside to outside) so 

that when the book is closed, the 

stitching is concealed from the 

outside. During construction, the 

polyester cover is sewn to the back 

cover with the outside of the 

polyester spine cover to the inside 

back cover. Both free ends (the ends 

not sewn to the cover and back) are 

stitched with a turned edge 

construction. Each ring within the 

fixture is comprised of a flexible 

strap portion that snaps into a 

stationary post which forms a 

closed binding ring. The ring fixture 

is riveted with six metal rivets and 

sewn to the back plastic cover and 

is specifically positioned on the 

outside back cover. The product 

must bear the valid trademark 

FiveStar FlexTM (products found to 

be bearing an invalidly licensed or 

used trademark are not excluded 

from the scope). 

Merchandise subject to this order is 

typically imported under headings 

4820.10.2050, 4810.22.5044, 

4811.90.9050, 4811.90.9090, 

4820.10.2010, 4820.10.2020, and 

4820.10.4000 of the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). 

The HTSUS headings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes; 

however, the written description of the 

scope of the order is dispositive. 

Intent to Rescind the 2007–2008 

Administrative Review, in Part 

On November 13, 2008, Lian Li 

submitted a letter certifying that it did 

not have any shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR. The 

Department conducted an internal 

Customs data query on November 13, 

2008, to investigate Lian Li’s claim, and 

found that Lian Li had made shipments 

to the United States during the POR, 

which were entered under the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS) numbers for 

subject merchandise. See Memorandum 

to File from Joy Zhang titled ‘‘Internal 

Customs Data Query,’’ dated December 

2, 2008. Therefore, on December 2, 

2008, the Department issued a 

questionnaire to Lian Li. 

On January 9, petitioner filed 

comments on Lian Li’s no shipment 

claim, asking the Department to request 

product samples from Lian Li. On 

January 29, 2009, Lian Li submitted 

product samples of the merchandise it 

exported to the United States during the 

POR, which Lian Li claimed were non– 

subject merchandise. On March 4, 2009, 

counsel for petitioner inspected Lian 

Li’s product samples. See Memorandum 

to the File from Joy Zhang titled 

‘‘Inspecting the Product Samples by 

Counsel for the Association of American 

School Paper Supplies,’’ dated March 4, 

2009. 

Based on a review of the product 

samples submitted by Lian Li and the 

Customs data, we preliminarily 

determine that the samples are not 

subject merchandise, and that Lian Li 

did not export subject merchandise to 

the United States during the POR. 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

§ 351.213(d)(3), the Department may 

rescind an administrative review, ‘‘with 

respect to a particular exporter or 

producer, if the Secretary concludes 

that, during the period covered by the 

review, there were no entries, exports, 

or sales of the subject merchandise, as 

the case may be.’’ Because we 

determined that Lian Li did not export 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR, pursuant to 19 

CFR § 351.213(d)(3), and consistent with 

our practice, we preliminarily 

determine to rescind this review with 

respect to Lian Li. See, e.g., Welded 

Carbon Steel Pipe and Tube from 

Turkey: Notice of Intent to Rescind 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, In Part, 73 FR 60240 (October

Warmwater Shrimp From India: Final 

Results and Partial Rescission of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 73 FR 40492 (July 15, 2008). 

After the preliminary partial 

rescission of Lian Li, only one 

respondent, Watanabe, remains in this 

review. 

Public Comment 

An interested party may request a 

hearing within 30 days of publication of 

this preliminary notice. See 19 CFR 

§ 351.310(c). Any hearing, if requested, 

will be held 44 days after the date of 

publication of this preliminary notice,

Analyst, through James Terpstra, Program Manager,

or the first working day thereafter. 

Interested parties may submit case briefs 

no later than 30 days after the date of 

publication of this preliminary notice. 

See 19 CFR § 351.309(c)(ii). Rebuttal 

briefs, limited to issues raised in such 

briefs, may be filed no later than five 

days after the time limit for filing the 

case brief 19 CFR § 351.309(d). Parties 

who submit arguments are requested to 

submit with the argument (1) a 

statement of the issue, (2) a brief 

summary of the argument, and (3) a 

table of authorities. Further, parties 

submitting written comments should 

provide the Department with an 

additional copy of the public version of 

any such comments on diskette. The 

Department will issue the final notice, 

which will include the results of its 

analysis of issues raised in any such 

comments, or at a hearing, if requested, 

within 120 days of publication of this 

preliminary notice. 

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary 

Results 

The preliminary results of this review 

are currently due no later than June 2, 

2009. Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 

requires the Department to make a 

preliminary determination in an 

administrative review within 245 days 

after the last day of the anniversary 

month of an order or finding for which 

a review is requested. Consistent with 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 

Department may extend the 245-day 

period to 365 days if it is not practicable 

to complete the review within a 245-day 

period. 

We determine that completion of the 

preliminary results of this review within 

the 245-day period is not practicable. 

Specifically, on January 8, 2009, 

Watanabe claimed that it did not export 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. However, based 

on our internal Customs data query, we 

found that Watanabe made shipments to 

the United States during the POR, 

which entered under the HTSUS 

numbers for subject merchandise.1

Therefore, we requested that Watanabe 

respond to the Department’s 

questionnaire. The issue raised by 

Watanabe has resulted in a delay in 

Watanabe’s response to the 

Department’s questionnaire. In addition, 

we need additional time to thoroughly 

review the response to the original 

questionnaire and to allow time to issue 

supplemental questionnaires, if deemed 

necessary. 

Therefore, we are extending the time 

period for issuing the preliminary 

results of review by 120 days to 

September 30, 2009, in accordance with 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 

CFR § 351.213(h)(2). The preliminary 

results are now due no later than 

September 30, 2009. The final results 

continue to be due 120 days after 

publication of the preliminary results. 

Assessment 

The Department will instruct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries. For the company for 

which this review is rescinded, 

antidumping duties shall be assessed at 

rates equal to the cash deposit of 

estimated 

antidumping duties required at the 

time of entry, or withdrawal from 

warehouse, for consumption, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 

§ 351.212(c)(1)(i). 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1), 

751(a)(3)(A) , and 777(i)(1) of the Act, 

and 19 CFR § 351.213(d)(4).

Background 

On December 1, 2008, the Department 

published a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

countervailing duty order on honey 

from Argentina. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity 

To Request Administrative Review, 73 

FR 72764 (December 1, 2008). On 

December 31, 2008, the American 

Honey Producers Association and the 

Sioux Honey Association (petitioners) 

timely requested an administrative 

review of the countervailing duty order 

on honey from Argentina for the period 

January 1, 2008 through December 31, 

2008. In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i), the Department 

published a notice initiating an 

administrative review of the 

countervailing duty order on honey 

from Argentina. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews and Requests 

for Revocation in Part, 74 FR 5821 

(February 2, 2009). 

Rescission of Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Review 

The Department’s regulations provide 

that the Department will rescind an 

administrative review if the party that 

requested the review withdraws its 

request for review within 90 days of the 

date of publication of the notice of 

initiation. See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). On 

February 27, 2009, petitioners submitted 

a letter withdrawing their request of the 

review within the 90-day deadline. No 

other party requested a review of the 

order. Therefore, the Department is 

rescinding this administrative review of 

the countervailing duty order on honey 

from Argentina for the period January 1, 

2008 through December 31, 2008. The 

Department intends to issue appropriate 

assessment instructions to U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection 15 days after the 

date of publication of this notice.
