BILLING CODE 3510-DS-M DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [A-580-807] Continuation of Antidumping Duty Order: Polyethylene Terephthalate
(PET)Film From Korea AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. ACTION: Notice of Continuation of Antidumping Duty Order: Polyethylene Terephthalate
(PET)Film from Korea. SUMMARY: On February 4, 2000, the Department of Commerce (“the Department”), pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order on polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”) film from Korea is likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping (65 FR 5592). On February 24, 2000, the International Trade Commission (“the Commission”), pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time (65 FR 9298). Therefore, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4), the Department is publishing notice of the continuation of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea. EFFECTIVE DATE: March 7, 2000. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Martha V. Douthit or Melissa G. Skinner, Office of Policy for Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone:
(202)482-5050 or
(202)482-1560, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On July 1, 1999, the Department initiated, and the Commission instituted, a sunset review (64 FR 35588 and 64 FR 35685, respectively) of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act. As a result of its review, the Department found that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and notified the Commission of the magnitude of the margin likely to prevail were the order to be revoked ( *see Final Results of Expedited Sunset Review: Polyethylene Terephthalate Film From Korea* , February 4, 2000 (65 FR 5592). On February 24, 2000, the Commission determined, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time ( *see Polyethylene Terephthalate
(PET)Film from Korea* , 65 FR 9298 (February 24, 2000) and USITC Pub. 3278, Investigation No. 731-TA-459 (Review) (February 2000)). Scope The merchandise covered by this antidumping duty order includes all gauges of raw pre-treated, or primed polythylene terephthalate film, sheet, and strip, whether extruded or co-extruded. The films excluded from this antidumping duty order are metallized films and other finished films that have had at least one of their surfaces modified by the application of a performance-enhancing resinous or inorganic layer of more than 0.00001 inches (0.254 micrometers) thick. Roller transport cleaning film which has at least one of its surfaces modified by the application of 0.5 micrometers of SBR latex has also been ruled as not within the scope of the order. PET film is currently classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule (“HTS”) item number 3920.62.00.00. The HTS item number is provided for convenience and customs purposes. The written description remains dispositive. Determination As a result of the determinations by the Department and the Commission that revocation of the antidumping duty order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea. The Department will instruct the U.S. Customs Service to continue to collect antidumping duty deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise. The effective date of continuation of this order will be the date of publication in the **Federal Register** of this Notice of Continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the Act, the Department intends to initiate the next five-year review of this order not later than February 2005. Dated: March 1, 2000. Joseph A. Spetrini, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc. 00-5510 Filed 3-6-00; 8:45 am]
