Circumstances Review and Reinstatement of the Antidumping Duty Order

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 8, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael J. Heaney or Robert James, AD/
CVD Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
4475 and (202) 482-0649, respectively.
SUMMARY: On April 3, 2008, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register the final results of the antidumping 
duty changed circumstances review and reinstatement of the antidumping 
order on polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet, and strip from Korea. 
The review covered a single firm, Kolon Industries, Inc. (Kolon) and 
the period July 1, 2005 to June 30, 2006. See Polyethylene 
Terephthalate Film, Sheet, and Strip from the Republic of Korea; Final 
Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances Review and 
Reinstatement of the Antidumping Duty Order, 73 FR 18259 (April 3, 
2008) (Final Results). We are amending the Final Results to correct a 
ministerial error in the calculation of the cash deposit rate for Kolon 
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(e).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 7, 2008, the Department received 
from Kolon a timely allegation of a ministerial error pursuant to 19 
CFR 351.224(c)(1). Kolon alleges an error in formatting product-
specific control numbers. Kolon asserts the Department assigned a 
revised field of only 6 characters in length for the variable CONNUM2H 
in the home market comparison program while assigning a field length of 
10 characters for the variable CONNUM2H in the margin program. Kolon 
argues that the effect of this error is to truncate some of the 
CONNUM2H values used for matching purposes in the final results. 
Petitioners did not comment on the alleged ministerial error.

Amended Final Results of Review

    A ministerial error as defined in section 751(h) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (the act) ``includes errors in addition, 
subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical errors resulting 
from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other type 
of unintentional error which the administering authority considers 
ministerial.'' See also 19 CFR 351.224(f). After analyzing Kolon's 
allegation, we have determined, in accordance with section 751(h) of 
the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), that the Department made a ministerial 
error in the final results by inadvertently setting the field length 
for CONNUM2H in the comparison market program to 6 characters rather 
than 10 characters. Therefore, we are amending the final results of 
this antidumping duty changed circumstances review of polyethylene 
terephthalate film, sheet, and strip from Korea. In these amended final 
results we have assigned a character length of 10 for the CONNUM2H 
variable used in the comparison market program. As a result of this 
correction, the weighted-average percentage margin for Kolon has 
changed from 1.53 percent to 1.52 percent. We will issue amended cash 
deposit instructions for these amended final results of this 
administrative review to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days 
after publication of these amended final results. There are no changes 
to the rates applicable to any other companies under this antidumping 
order. See Final Results.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e).

    Dated: May 01, 2008.
David M. Spooner,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
