Amended Final Results
On November 10, 1997, the Department published the final results of
its administrative review of the antidumping duty finding on roller
chain, other than bicycle, from Japan (62 FR 60472). The review covers
six manufacturers/exporters and the period of review (POR) is April 1,
1995, through March 31, 1996.
After publication of our final results, on November 17, 1997, we
received timely allegations of ministerial errors with respect to the
final results of administrative review for Daido Kogyo Co. Ltd., Daido
Tsusho Co., Ltd., and Daido Corporation (collectively Daido) and Enuma
Chain Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (Enuma). Based on the correction of
certain ministerial errors made in the final results of review, we
amended our final results with respect to these companies. See 62 FR
67345 (December 24, 1997).
Following the publication of the amended final results, Daido,
Enuma, and Pulton Chain Co., Inc. (Pulton) (the parties) filed lawsuits
with the United States Court of International Trade (CIT) challenging
the Department's amended final results of administrative review. See
Daido Kogyo Co., et al. versus United States, Consolidated Court No.
97-12-02115; and Pulton Chain Co., Inc. versus United States, Court No.
97-12-02116.
Following negotiations, the parties to these cases entered into
settlement agreements. On February 11, 1999, the CIT approved the
settlement agreements and dismissed the lawsuits. See Stipulation of
Dismissal, Pulton Chain Co., Inc. versus United States, Court No. 97-
12-02116; Daido Kogyo Co., et al. versus United States, Consolidated
Court No. 97-12-02115.
As a result of the settlement agreements in these cases, we
calculated the following amended margins for Daido, Enuma, and Pulton
for the period April 1, 1995, through March 31, 1996, and are amending
the final results of the antidumping administrative review of roller
chain, other than bicycle, from Japan:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margin
Manufacturer/exporter percent
revised
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daido Kogyo Co., Ltd....................................... 0.84
Enuma Chain Mfg. Co., Ltd.................................. 0.98
Pulton Chain Co., Inc...................................... 17.57
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Department shall determine, and the U.S. Customs Service
(Customs) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.
We will issue importer-specific appraisement instructions to Customs.
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing this determination in accordance with
section 751(a)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1), 19 CFR 351.213, and
19 CFR 351.221(b)(5)).
Dated: March 3, 1999.
Robert S. LaRussa,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
