SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 23, 2003, the Department
published in the Federal Register its
final determination in the above–
referenced investigation covering the
period October 1, 2001, through March
31, 2002. See Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Lawn
and Garden Steel Fence Posts From the
People’s Republic of China, 68 FR 20373
(April 25, 2003) (‘‘Final
Determination’’). Following publication
of the Final Determination, Hebei

 32836 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 114 / Thursday, June 14, 2007 / Notices
Corporation and Hebei Wuxin Metals &
Minerals Trading Co., Ltd. (collectively,
‘‘Hebei Metals’’) filed a lawsuit with the
CIT challenging the Department’s Final
Determination. Hebei Metals challenged
the surrogate coal value, the surrogate
steel–pallet value, and the exclusion of
certain items in the calculation of the
surrogate financial ratios. On September
11, 2003, the CIT issued on behalf of
Hebei Metals, an injunction enjoining
the Department from issuing
instructions to liquidate entries of lawn
and garden steel fence posts from the
PRC. See Hebei Metals & Minerals
Import & Export Corporation, et. al. v.
United States, Court No. 03–00442
(September 11, 2003).
On July 19, 2004, the CIT first
remanded this case to the Department to
address three aspects of the
Department’s antidumping duties
calculation in the Final Determination:
(1) the use of an Indian import price,
based on Indian Import Statistics, rather
than an Indian domestic price, based on
Tata Energy Research Institute’s Energy
Data Directory & Yearbook (‘‘Teri Data’’)
for the surrogate value for coal, (2) the
inclusion of a Swedish import value in
the surrogate value for steel–pallet
packing material, and (3) exclusion of
internal consumption from raw material
expenditures in the calculation of
surrogate ratios for selling, general, and
administrative (‘‘SG&A’’) expenses and
profit. See Hebei Metals &Minerals
Import & Export Corporation, et al. v.
United States, Slip Op. 04–88 (CIT July
19, 2004) (‘‘First Remand’’).
On October 20, 2004, the Department
issued the Final Results of
Redetermination Pursuant to Remand,
Hebei Metals & Minerals Imp. & Exp.
Corp. And Hebei Wuxin Metals &
Minerals Trading Co., Ltd. v. United
States (October 20, 2004) (‘‘First
Remand Redetermination’’) in the
above–referenced investigation pursuant
to the CIT’s remand order on July 19,
2004. In its redetermination the
Department (1) concluded that
substantial evidence indicated that the
use of the Indian import prices for the
surrogate value of coal yielded a more
accurate surrogate value than the
domestic coal value on the record; (2)
pursuant to the Court’s instructions,
excluded the Swedish import value
from the calculation of the surrogate
value for steel pallets; and (3) concluded
that substantial record evidence
demonstrated the significance of
internal consumption, and its removal
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
from the denominator increased the
accuracy of the ratios.
On March 10, 2005, the CIT issued a
second remand. See Hebei Metals &
Minerals Import & Export Corporation
VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:22 Jun 13, 2007 Jkt 211001
and Hebei Wuxin Metals & Minerals
Trading Co., Ltd. v. United States, Slip
Op. 05–32 (CIT March 10, 2005)
(‘‘Second Remand’’). In the Second
Remand, the CIT determined that (1) the
Department’s selection of a surrogate
coal value was arbitrary and
unsupported by substantial evidence
and, therefore, remanded this issue to
the Department for reconsideration; (2)
the Department had adequately
complied with the CIT’s instructions to
exclude a Swedish import value from
the calculation of the surrogate value for
steel pallets and, therefore, the issue
was no longer before the Court; and (3)
the Department provided a reasonable
explanation as to why it is not
appropriate to remove any amounts
from the numerators of the SG&A and
factory overhead surrogate financial
ratios and, therefore, sustained the
Department’s determination. Id.
On July 20, 2005, the Department
issued its Second Remand
Redetermination. In its second
redetermination, the Department
determined that the Teri Data, placed on
the record by Hebei Metals, was the best
source of data for the selection of a
surrogate value for coal in this
proceeding because it was complete and
comprehensive in that it covers all sales
of all types of coal made by Coal India
Limited and its subsidiaries and because
it was exclusive of duties and taxes. On
September 22, 2005, the CIT sustained
the Department’s Second Remand
Redetermination. See Court Decision in
Hebei Metals, Slip Op. 05–126. The
CIT’s final judgment was not in
harmony with the Department’s Final
Determination. No party appealed the
CIT’s decision. As there is now a final
and conclusive court decision in this
case, we are amending our Final
Determination.
Amended Final Determination
As the litigation in this case has
concluded, the Department is amending
the Final Determination. The revised
dumping margin in the amended final
determination is as follows:
Exporter
Hebei Metals & Min-
erals Import & Export
Corporation ...............
The PRC–wide rate continues to be
15.61 percent as determined in the
Department’s Final Determination.
Within five business days of publication
of this notice, the Department will issue
instructions to U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (‘‘CBP’’) to revise the cash
deposit rates for the company listed
PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703
above, effective as of the publication
date of this notice. Because Hebei
Metals received a preliminary
injunction, we will also instruct CBP to
liquidate all entries, for which no
review was requested, at the new cash
deposit rate.
This notice is published in
accordance with sections 735(d) and
777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended.
