Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries for
the above-named entities. For those companies for which this review has
been rescinded, antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to
the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time
of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department will issue appropriate
assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after the publication
of this notice in the Federal Register.
In addition, the Department is rescinding this review with respect
to the following entities which did not receive a separate rate in any
completed prior segment of this proceeding. For purposes of initiation
of this administrative review, the Department accepted requests for
review of these entities based upon the premise that such entities
would seek to demonstrate in this review that they were, in law and in
fact, separate from the PRC-wide entity, and therefore, entitled to a
rate separate from the rate established for the PRC-wide entity.
However, as the requests for review of these entities have been
withdrawn, these entities may be subject to this review as part of the
single PRC-wide entity.\3\ Therefore, the Department will provide
assessment instructions to CBP for the PRC-wide entity, which includes
the following companies, after the final results of this administrative
review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ If one of the companies remaining under review does not
qualify for a separate rate, all other exporters of wooden bedroom
furniture from the PRC that have not qualified for a separate rate
are deemed to be covered by this review as part of the single PRC-
wide entity of which the named exporter is a part.

Notification to Importers
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 assumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders (``APOs'')
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to APOs of
their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of
proprietary information disclosed under an APO in accordance with 19
CFR 351.305, which continues to govern business proprietary information
in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of the
return/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.
This notice is in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the Act, and
19 CFR 351.213(d)(4) of the Department's regulations.
Dated: July 25, 2007 .

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
