SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department has received a timely request from Longkou TLC 
Machinery Co., Ltd. (``LKTLC''), in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(c), 
for a new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on brake rotors 
from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''), which has an October 
semiannual anniversary month.
    As required by 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i), (ii), and (iii)(A), the 
company identified above has certified that it did not export brake 
rotors to the United States during the period of investigation 
(``POI''), and that it has never been affiliated with any exporter or 
producer which did export brake rotors during the POI. The company has 
further certified that its export activities are not controlled by the 
central government of the PRC, satisfying the requirements of 19 CFR 
351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B). Pursuant to the Department's regulations at 19 
CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iv)(A), LKTLC submitted documentation establishing 
the date on which it first shipped the subject merchandise to the 
United States, the date of entry of that first shipment, the volume of 
that shipment, and the date of the first sale to an unaffiliated 
customer in the United States.
    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act, as amended, and 
19 CFR 351.214(b), and based on information on the record, we are 
initiating the new shipper review for LKTLC.

Initiation of Review

    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.214(d)(1), we are initiating a new shipper review of the 
antidumping duty order on brake rotors from the PRC. We intend to issue 
the preliminary results of this review not later than 180 days after 
the date on which the review is initiated.
