(202)482-2312. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department published the *Final Results* on September 19, 2005. On August 28, 2007, the Court remanded the *Final Results,* and ** instructed the Department to either explain or reconsider its determination of the adverse facts available
(AFA)rate applied to TMC's and Huarong's sales of bars/wedges, and the AFA rate applied to TMC's sales of picks/mattocks. 3 On March 11, 2008, the Department filed its *First Remand Results* pursuant to the Court's August 28, 2007 order. 4 On January 4, 2011, the Court sustained in part, and remanded, in part, the Department's *First Remand Results.* Specifically, the Court remanded the AFA rates applied to Huarong's bars/wedges, and to TMC's pick/mattocks. On May 4, 2011, the Department filed the *Second Remand Results,* in which the Department recalculated the AFA rates applied to Huarong and TMC. As a result, the Department revised the antidumping margin for Huarong's sales of bars/wedges to 47.88 percent, and revised the antidumping margin for TMC's sales of picks/mattocks to 32.15 percent. On June 14, 2012, the Court sustained the Department's *Second Remand Results.* 5 3 *See Tianjin Machinery Import & Export Corp and Shandong Huarong Machinery Co., Ltd.* v. *United States,* Court No. 05-00522, Slip Op. 07-131 (August 28, 2007). 4 *Final Results of Redetermination Pursuant to Tianjin Machinery Import & Export Corp. (“TMC”) and Shandong Huraong Machinery Co., Ltd. (“Huarong”)* v. *United States and Ames True Temper,* Consol. Court No. 05-00522, Slip Op. 07-131 (August 28, 2007), March 11, 2008 (“ *First Remand Results”* ). 5 *See Tianjin* v. *United States.* Timken Notice In its decision in *Timken,* 893 F.2d at 341, as clarified by *Diamond Sawblades,* the Federal Circuit has held that, pursuant to section 516A(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), the Department must publish a notice of a court decision not “in harmony” with a Department determination, and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a “conclusive” court decision. The Court's June 14, 2012, order constitutes a final decision of the Court that is not in harmony with the Department's *Final Results.* This notice is published in fulfillment of the publication requirement of *Timken.* Accordingly, the Department will continue the suspension of liquidation of the subject merchandise pending the expiration of the period of appeal, or if appealed, pending a final and conclusive court decision. The cash deposit rate will remain the company-specific rate established for Huarong and TMC for the subsequent and most recent period during which the respondents were reviewed. 6 6 See *Heavy Forged Hand Tools, Finished or Unfinished, With or Without Handles, From the People's Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review* and Final Rescission and Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews, 71 FR 54269 (September 14, 2006). Amended Final Determination Because there is now a final court decision, we are amending the *Final Results* with respect to Huarong and TMC's margin for the period February 1, 2003 through January 30, 2004. The revised weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: Exporter Percent margin Huarong 47.88 TMC 32.15 In the event the Court's ruling is not appealed, or if appealed, upheld by the Federal Circuit, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on entries of the subject merchandise exported by Huarong and TMC using the revised assessment rates calculated by the Department in the *Second Remand Results.* This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 516(A)(e)(1), 751(a)(1), and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: June 28, 2012. Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc. 2012-16575 Filed 7-2-12; 4:15 pm]
