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been rescinded, antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to 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withdrawn, these entities may be subject to this review as part of the 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.\1\ 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 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).

    Dated: August 18, 2008.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
