BILLING CODE 8230-01-M DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Foreign-Trade Zones Board [Docket 16-2006] Foreign-Trade Zone 202 Los Angeles, California, Application for Subzone, Sony Electronics, Inc., (Audio, Video, Communications and Information Technology Products and Accessories), Los Angeles, Carson and Lynwood, California An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by the Board of Harbor Commissioners of the City of Los Angeles, grantee of FTZ 202, requesting special-purpose subzone status for the warehousing and distribution facilities of Sony Electronics, Inc.
(Sony), located in Los Angeles, Carson and Lynwood, California. The application was submitted pursuant to the provisions of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on April 28, 2006. The Sony facilities (250 employees) consist of five sites on 65 acres: *Site 1* (21.5 acres) is located at 2201 East Carson St., Carson; *Site 2* (20.1 acres) is located at 1651 E. Glenn Curtiss St., Carson;
Site 3 (1 acre) is located at 6041 W. Imperial Highway, Los Angeles; *Site 4* (7 acres) is located at 1071 E. 233rd St., Carson; and *Site 5* (15 acres) is located at 2700 E. Imperial Highway, Lynwood. The facilities are used for the storage, distribution, packaging, kitting, inspecting, testing and repair of audio, video, communications and information technology products and accessories. Zone procedures would exempt Sony from customs duty payments on products that are re-exported.
Some 5 percent of the products are re-exported. On its domestic sales, the company would be able to defer duty payments until merchandise is shipped from the facilities and entered for consumption. FTZ designation would further allow Sony to utilize certain customs procedures resulting in increased efficiencies for its logistics and distribution operations. In addition, Sony is requesting authority to choose the duty rates during customs entry procedures that apply to digital camera and camcorder kits (HTS 8525.40, duty rate ranges from duty-free to 2.1%) for the following imported components: memory sticks, digital still cameras, digital camcorders, rechargeable battery packs and soft carrying cases (HTS 4202.91, 8507.80, 8523.90, 8525.40, duty rate ranges from duty-free to 4.5%).
The company has also indicated that it will import soft carrying cases (HTS 4202.92, duty rate 17.6%), but that they will be admitted to the zone in privileged foreign status. The request indicates that the savings from FTZ procedures would help improve the plants' international competitiveness. In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ staff has been appointed examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board. Public comment is invited from interested parties.
Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period for their receipt is July 10, 2006. Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period to July 24, 2006. A copy of the application and accompanying exhibits will be available for public inspection at each of the following locations: U.S. Department of Commerce Export Assistance Center, 444 South Flower Street, 34th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90071.

Dennis Puccinelli, Executive Secretary. [FR Doc. E6-7043 Filed 5-8-06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-DS-S DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Foreign-Trade Zones Board [Docket 17-2006] Foreign-Trade Subzone 29F - Harrodsburg, KY, Hitachi Automotive Products (USA), Inc., Removal of Restriction (Automotive Components) A application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by Hitachi Automotive Products, Inc.
(HAP), operator of Subzone 29F, at the HAP automotive components manufacturing plant in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, requesting removal of the restriction pursuant to Board Order 497. It was formally filed on April 28, 2006. Subzone 29F was approved by the Board in 1990 with authority granted for the manufacture of automotive components under FTZ procedures for the U.S. market and export (Board Order 497, 56 FR 674, 1-8-91). The manufacturing authority was approved with a restriction requiring that privileged foreign status (19 CFR 146.41) must be elected on all foreign-origin merchandise admitted to the subzone for use in the manufacture of automotive components, except for merchandise that is used in the manufacture of high-tech, electronic automotive components, such as control units, electronic throttle bodies, and mass air sensors.
The restriction precludes inverted tariff benefits on foreign-origin merchandise used to manufacture standard, commodity-type components (e.g., starters, alternators, pressure sensors) for the U.S. market. HAP is now requesting that the Board remove the restriction requiring that foreign-origin merchandise must be admitted to the subzone under privileged foreign status when such merchandise is to be used in the manufacture of standard, commodity-type products. The commodity-type automotive components subject to unrestricted FTZ benefits would include:
Hydraulic pumps, fuel injection pumps, filters, catalytic converters, valves and actuators, motors, inverters, ignition coils, starters, generators, voltage regulators, transistors, conductors, thermistors, carbon brushes, integrated circuits, relay boxes, terminal covers, and wiring sets (duty rate range: free - 4.4%). Foreign-origin material inputs comprise approximately 80 percent of HAP's finished automotive components' material value and include: adhesives, plastic fittings, plastic and rubber belts, fasteners, gaskets/seals/o-rings, metal fittings, labels, plastic wedging, springs, brackets, plates, filters, bearings, air pumps/compressors, valves, switches, electric motors, tubes/pipes/profiles, aluminum plugs, transformers, crankshafts, camshafts, gears, pulleys, couplings, clutches, parts of electric motors, pinions, magnets, ignition parts, diodes, transistors, semiconductors, liquid crystal devices, electrical instruments, television cameras, navigation apparatus, capacitors, resistors, printed/integrated circuits, fuses, rheostats, connectors, terminals, piezoelectric crystals, regulators, lamps, wires, cables, insulators, brushes, steering wheels, hubs, brackets, shafts, and measuring instruments (duty rate range: free - 8.6%).
FTZ procedures exempt HAP from Customs duty payments on the foreign component inputs used in production for export to non-NAFTA countries. On its domestic shipments and exports to NAFTA markets, the company would be able to elect the duty rate that applies to finished automotive components (2.5%) for the foreign inputs within the finished commodity-type automotive components. On the finished, commodity-type components shipped from the HAP plant in-bond to U.S. light vehicle auto assembly plants with subzone status, no duties would be paid on the foreign-origin inputs until the finished vehicles are formally entered for consumption, at which time the automobile duty rate (2.5%) would be applied to the foreign-origin inputs.
The request indicates that the savings from FTZ procedures will continue to help improve the HAP facility's international competitiveness. In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board. Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period for their receipt is July 10, 2006.
Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period to July 24, 2006. A copy of the application and accompanying exhibits will be available for public inspection at each of the following locations: U.S. Department of Commerce Export Assistance Center, Room 634B, 601 West Broadway, Louisville, Kentucky 40202; and, Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room 1115, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, District of Columbia 20230-0002;

(Apparel, Footwear, and Sporting Equipment), Hebron, Kentucky An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by the Northern Kentucky Foreign-Trade Zone Inc., grantee of FTZ 47, requesting special-purpose subzone status for the warehousing and distribution facilities (apparel, footwear, and sporting equipment) of adidas Sales, Inc. (adidas), located in Hebron, Kentucky. The application was submitted pursuant to the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on April 28, 2006. The facilities for which subzone status is proposed are located at three sites in Hebron, Kentucky (62.19 acres total; 1,012,507 sq. ft. of enclosed space): Site # 1 (25 acres; 492,507 sq. ft. of enclosed space) located at 1081/1085 Aviation Boulevard; Site # 2 (12.09 acres; 205,000 sq. ft. of enclosed space) located at 2055/2095 Global Way; and Site # 3 (25.1 acres; 315,000 sq. ft. of enclosed space) located at 1505 Worldwide Boulevard. The facilities (approximately 730 employees) may be used under FTZ procedures for warehousing and distribution of apparel, footwear, and sporting equipment. Zone procedures would allow adidas to defer Customs duty payments until merchandise is shipped from its facilities to the U.S. market. The company would be able to avoid duty on foreign merchandise which becomes scrap/waste, estimated at less than one percent of imported products. The application indicates that adidas also anticipates realizing significant logistical/procedural benefits and that savings from FTZ procedures could help improve the facilities' international competitiveness. In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board.

(202)482-0133 or
(202)482-0182, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Postponement of Final Determination The Department of Commerce (“the Department”) is postponing the final determination in the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of certain lined paper products (“CLPP”) from Indonesia. On October 6, 2005, the Department initiated the antidumping duty investigation of CLPP from Indonesia. *See Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigation: Certain Lined Paper Products from India, Indonesia, and the People's Republic of China* , 70 FR 58374 (October 6, 2005). On October 7, 2005, the Department initiated the countervailing duty investigation of CLPP from Indonesia. *See Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigation: Certain Lined Paper Products from India (C-533-844) and Indonesia (C- 560-819)* , 70 FR 58690 (October 7, 2005). On February 13, 2006, the Department published its affirmative countervailing duty determination. *See Notice of Preliminary Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination: Certain Lined Paper Products from Indonesia* , 71 FR 7524 (February 13, 2006). On February 17, 2006, Petitioner submitted a letter requesting alignment of the final countervailing duty determination with the final determination in the companion antidumping investigation. On March 7, 2006, the Department published notification of alignment for the final determinations in the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of CLPP from Indonesia. *See Certain Lined Paper Products From India and Indonesia: Alignment of First Countervailing Duty Determination With Antidumping Duty Determination* , 71 FR 11379 (March 7, 2006). On March 27, 2006, the Department published its affirmative preliminary antidumping duty determination. *See Notice of Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Certain Lined Paper Products from Indonesia* , 71 FR 15162 (March 27, 2006). This notice states that the Department will issue its final determination no later than 75 days after the date of the preliminary determination. Section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii) provide that a final determination in an antidumping duty investigation may be postponed until no later than 135 days after the date of the publication of the preliminary determination if, in the event of an affirmative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is made by exporters who account for a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise. Additionally, the Department's regulations, at 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2)(ii), require that requests by a respondent for postponement of a final determination be accompanied by a request for an extension of the provisional measures from a four-month period to not more than six months. On April 24, 2006, in accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), PT. Pabrik Kertas Tjiwi Kimia Tbk., which is the only mandatory respondent in the antidumping investigation and which accounts for a significant portion of exports of CLPP from Indonesia ( *see* the Memorandum from Natalie Kempkey to Susan Kuhbach entitled “Antidumping Investigation of Certain Lined Paper Products from Indonesia: Selection of Respondents”), requested that the Department:
(1)Postpone the final determination; and
(2)extend the provisional measures period from four months to a period not longer than six months. Accordingly, pursuant to section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because:
(1)The preliminary determination is affirmative;
(2)the requesting exporter accounts for a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise in this investigation; and
(3)no compelling reasons for denial exist, we are postponing the final determination until no later than 135 days after the publication of the preliminary determination in the **Federal Register** ( *i.e.* , until no later than August 9, 2006). Suspension of liquidation will be extended accordingly. In addition, because the countervailing duty investigation of CLPP from Indonesia has been aligned with the concurrent antidumping duty investigation under section 705(a)(1) of the Act, the time limit for completion of the final determination in the countervailing duty investigation will be the same date, August 9, 2006, as the final determination of the concurrent antidumping duty investigation. *See Postponement of Final Determination of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Investigations of Hot-Rolled Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel From Brazil* , 64 FR 24321 (May 6, 1999). This notice of postponement is published pursuant to section 735(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(g). Dated: May 3, 2006. David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 9, 2006. SUMMARY: In response to a request from Gharda Chemicals, Ltd., on January 27, 2006, the Department of Commerce published in the **Federal Register** a notice announcing the initiation of a new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 from India covering the period December 1, 2004, through November 30, 2005. On April 21, 2006, Gharda Chemicals, Ltd., withdrew its request for a new shipper review and, therefore, we are rescinding this review. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dmitry Vladimirov or Minoo Hatten at
(202)482-0665 and
(202)482-1690, respectively, Office 5, AD/CVD Operations, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Department of Commerce (the Department) published the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 from India on December 29, 2004 (69 FR 77988). On September 22, 2005, we received a timely request for a new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 from India from Gharda Chemicals, Ltd. (Gharda). On January 17, 2006, Gharda submitted additional information to supplement its new shipper review request in response to our January 10, 2006, letter requesting that Gharda correct certain deficiencies in its new shipper review request. Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1), we initiated a new shipper review on January 27, 2006, for shipments of carbazole violet pigment 23 from India produced and exported by Gharda (71 FR 4569). Gharda withdrew its request for a new shipper review on April 21, 2006. Rescission of New Shipper Review Section 351.214(f)(1) of the Department's regulations provides that the Department may rescind a new shipper review if the party that requested the review withdraws its request for review within sixty days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. Although Gharda withdrew its request after the 60-day deadline, we find it reasonable to extend the deadline because we have not yet committed significant resources to the Gharda new shipper review. Specifically, we have not started calculating a margin for Gharda and we have not yet verified Gharda's data. Further, Gharda was the only party to request the review. Finally, we have not received any submissions opposing the withdrawal of the request for the review. For these reasons, we are rescinding the new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 from India with respect to Gharda in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(f)(1). Notification As of the date of the publication of this rescission notice in the **Federal Register** , we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection that importers will no longer have the option of posting a bond to fulfill security requirements for shipments of carbazole violet pigment 23 from India produced and exported by Gharda and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the United States. We will issue assessment instructions within 15 days of the date of the publication of this notice and, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c), we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties at the cash-deposit rate in effect at the time of entry for all shipments of carbazole violet pigment 23 from India produced and exported by Gharda and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period December 1, 2004, through November 30, 2005. This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order
(APO)of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of the return/destruction of APO material or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanctions. This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(f)(3). Dated: May 3, 2006. Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.

SUMMARY: On January 3, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from Brazil, Ukraine, and the People's Republic of China pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). On the basis of the notice of intent to participate and adequate substantive responses filed on behalf of the sole domestic interested party and inadequate responses from respondent interested parties, the Department conducted expedited sunset reviews. As a result of these sunset reviews, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty orders would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail is set forth in the section entitled “Final Results of Reviews.” EFFECTIVE DATE: May 9, 2006. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Zev Primor or Janis Kalnins, Office 5, AD/CVD Operations, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC, 20230; telephone:
(202)482-4114 or
(202)482-1392, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On January 3, 2006, the Department initiated sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from Brazil, Ukraine, and the People's Republic of China pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act. See *Initiation of Five-year (“Sunset”) Reviews* , 71 FR 91 (January 3, 2006). The Department received a Notice of Intent to Participate from Eramet Marietta Inc. (Eramet) within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i), (Sunset Regulations). Eramet claimed interested-party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as a manufacturer of a domestic like product in the United States. We received complete substantive responses from Eramet within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). In its substantive response, Eramet indicated that Elkem was the petitioner in the original investigation but that, since Eramet purchased Elkem's silicomanganese operations in 1999, it has participated actively in all administrative reviews and sunset reviews. We did not receive substantive responses from any respondent interested parties in the sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from Brazil, Ukraine, and the People's Republic of China. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department conducted expedited sunset reviews of these orders. Scope of the Orders The merchandise covered by these orders is silicomanganese. Silicomanganese, which is sometimes called ferrosilicon manganese, is a ferroalloy composed principally of manganese, silicon and iron, and normally contains much smaller proportions of minor elements, such as carbon, phosphorus, and sulfur. Silicomanganese generally contains by weight not less than 4 percent iron, more than 30 percent manganese, more than 8 percent silicon, and not more than 3 percent phosphorous. All compositions, forms, and sizes of silicomanganese are included within the scope of the order, including silicomanganese slag, fines, and briquettes. Silicomanganese is used primarily in steel production as a source of both silicon and manganese. Silicomanganese is currently classifiable under subheading 7202.30.0000 of the *Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States* (HTSUS). Some silicomanganese may also currently be classifiable under HTSUS subheading 7202.99.5040. These orders cover all silicomanganese, regardless of its tariff classification. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of these orders remain dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in these cases are addressed in the “Issues and Decision Memorandum” from Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, to David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, dated May 3, 2006 (Decision Memorandum), which is hereby adopted by this notice. The issues discussed in the Decision Memorandum include the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail if the orders were revoked. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in these sunset reviews and the corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum, which is on file in the CRU, Room B-099 of the main Department building. In addition, a complete version of the Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Web at http://ia.ita.doc.gov. The paper copy and electronic version of the Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Final Results of Reviews We determine that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from Brazil, Ukraine, and the People's Republic of China would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the following percentage weighted-average margins: Manufacturers/Exporters/Producers Weighted-Average Margin (Percent) Brazil Rio Doce Manganês S.A. (RDM), Companhia Paulista de Ferro-Ligas (CPFL), and Urucum Mineração S.A. (Urucum) (collectively RDM/CPFL) 64.93 All Others 17.60 Ukraine All Manufacturers/Producers/Exporters 163.00 The People's Republic of China All Manufacturers/Producers/Exporters 150.00 This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective orders
(APO)of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely notification of the return or destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction. We are issuing and publishing these results and notice in accordance with sections 751(c), 752, and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: May 3, 2006. David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 9, 2006. SUMMARY: On February 2, 2006, and in an amendment on March 16, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the “Department”) received a request on behalf of the petitioners, the American Furniture Manufacturers Committee for Legal Trade and its individual members (the “AFMC”) for a changed circumstances review and a request to revoke in part the antidumping duty (“AD”) order on wooden bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China with respect to jewelry armoires that have at least one side door, whether or not the door is lined with felt or felt-like material. In its February 2, 2006, submission, AFMC stated that it no longer has any interest in antidumping relief from imports of such jewelry armoires with respect to the subject merchandise defined in the “Scope of the Review” section below. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.

(202)482-3434, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On January 4, 2005, the Department published the Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order on Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China (70 FR 329). On February 2, 2006, and in an amendment on March 16, 2006, AFMC requested revocation in part of the AD order pursuant to sections 751(b)(1) and 782(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), with respect to jewelry armoires that have at least one side door, whether or not lined with felt or felt-like material, as described below. Scope of the Order The product covered is wooden bedroom furniture. Wooden bedroom furniture is generally, but not exclusively, designed, manufactured, and offered for sale in coordinated groups, or bedrooms, in which all of the individual pieces are of approximately the same style and approximately the same material and/or finish. The subject merchandise is made substantially of wood products, including both solid wood and also engineered wood products made from wood particles, fibers, or other wooden materials such as plywood, oriented strand board, particle board, and fiberboard, with or without wood veneers, wood overlays, or laminates, with or without non-wood components or trim such as metal, marble, leather, glass, plastic, or other resins, and whether or not assembled, completed, or finished.

See Customs' Headquarters' Ruling Letter 043859, dated May 17, 1976. 11 Any armoire, cabinet or other accent item for the purpose of storing jewelry, not to exceed 24'' in width, 18'' in depth, and 49'' in height, including a minimum of 5 lined drawers lined with felt or felt-like material, at least one side door lined with felt or felt-like material, with necklace hangers, and a flip-top lid with inset mirror. See Memorandum from Laurel LaCivita to Laurie Parkhill, Office Director, Issues and Decision Memorandum Concerning Jewelry Armoires and Cheval Mirrors in the Antidumping Duty Investigation of Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China, dated August 31, 2004. 12 Cheval mirrors, *i.e.* , any framed, tiltable mirror with a height in excess of 50'' that is mounted on a floor-standing, hinged base. 13 Metal furniture parts and unfinished furniture parts made of wood products (as defined above) that are not otherwise specifically named in this scope ( *i.e.* , wooden headboards for beds, wooden footboards for beds, wooden side rails for beds, and wooden canopies for beds) and that do not possess the essential character of wooden bedroom furniture in an unassembled, incomplete, or unfinished form. Such parts are usually classified under HTSUS subheading 9403.90.7000. Imports of subject merchandise are classified under subheading 9403.50.9040 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”) as “wooden...beds” and under subheading 9403.50.9080 of the HTSUS as “other...wooden furniture of a kind used in the bedroom.” In addition, wooden headboards for beds, wooden footboards for beds, wooden side rails for beds, and wooden canopies for beds may also be entered under subheading 9403.50.9040 of the HTSUS as “parts of wood” and framed glass mirrors may also be entered under subheading 7009.92.5000 of the HTSUS as “glass mirrors...framed.” This order covers all wooden bedroom furniture meeting the above description, regardless of tariff classification. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive. Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent to Revoke Order in Part At the request of AFMC, and in accordance with sections 751(d)(1) and 751(b)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.216, the Department is initiating a changed circumstances review of wooden bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China to determine whether partial revocation of the AD order is warranted with respect to jewelry armoires that have at least one side door, whether or not the door is lined with felt or felt-like material. Section 782(h)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.222(g)(1)(i) provide that the Department may revoke an order (in whole or in part) if it determines that producers accounting for substantially all of the production of the domestic like product have no further interest in the order, in whole or in part. In addition, in the event the Department determines that expedited action is warranted, 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii) permits the Department to combine the notices of initiation and preliminary results. In accordance with section 751(b) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.222(g)(l)(i) and 351.221(c)(3), we are initiating this changed circumstances review and have determined that expedited action is warranted. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.216(c), we find that the petitioners' affirmative statement of no interest constitutes good cause for the conduct of this review. Additionally, our decision to expedite this review stems from the domestic industry's lack of interest in applying the AD order to the specific wooden bedroom furniture (i.e., jewelry armories discussed above) covered by this request. Based on the expression of no interest by the petitioners and absent any objection by any other domestic interested parties, we have preliminarily determined that substantially all of the domestic producers of the like product have no interest in the continued application of the AD order on wooden bedroom furniture to the merchandise that is subject to this request. Therefore, we are notifying the public of our intent to revoke, in part, the AD order as it relates to imports of the jewelry armoires from the People's Republic of China that have at least one side door, whether or not the door is lined with felt or felt-like material. Therefore, we intend to change footnote 11 of the scope on wooden bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China to read as follows: Any armoire, cabinet or other accent item for the purpose of storing jewelry, not to exceed 24'' in width, 18'' in depth, and 49'' in height, including a minimum of 5 lined drawers lined with felt or felt-like material, at least one side door (whether or not the door is lined with felt or felt-like material), with necklace hangers, and a flip-top lid with inset mirror. See Memorandum from Laurel LaCivita to Laurie Parkhill, Office Director, Issues and Decision Memorandum Concerning Jewelry Armoires and Cheval Mirrors in the Antidumping Duty Investigation of Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China dated August 31, 2004. See Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People's Republic of China: Notice of Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review and Revocation in the Part (FR citation and date to be added). Public Comment Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. Written comments may be submitted no later than 14 days after the date of publication of these preliminary results. Rebuttals to written comments, limited to issues raised in such comments, may be filed no later than 21 days after the date of publication. The Department will issue the final results of this changed circumstances review, which will include the results of its analysis raised in any such written comments, no later than 270 days after the date on which this review was initiated, or within 45 days if all parties agree to our preliminary results. *See* 19 CFR 351.216(e). If final revocation occurs, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to end the suspension of liquidation for the merchandise covered by the revocation on the effective date of the notice of revocation and to release any cash deposit or bond. *See* 19 CFR 351.222(g)(4). The current requirement for a cash deposit of estimated AD duties on all subject merchandise will continue unless and until it is modified pursuant to the final results of this changed circumstances review. This initiation and preliminary results of review and notice are in accordance with sections 751(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.216, 351.221, and 351.222. Dated: April 27, 2006. David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary 6 for Import Administration. [FR Doc.
