Vertical Metal File Cabinets From the People's Republic of China: 
Correction to Antidumping Duty and Countervailing Duty Orders

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is correcting the 
antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on certain 
vertical metal file cabinets (file cabinets) from the People's Republic 
of China (China).

DATES: Applicable January 22, 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chien-Min Yang, AD/CVD Operations, 
Office VII, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue 
NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5484.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 13, 2019, Commerce published in 
the Federal Register the AD and CVD orders on file cabinets from 
China.\1\ Pursuant to section 703(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act), suspension of liquidation instructions issued 
pursuant to an affirmative preliminary CVD determination may not remain 
in effect for more than four months. In addition, pursuant to section 
733(d) of the Act, suspension of liquidation instructions issued 
pursuant to an affirmative preliminary AD determination may not remain 
in effect for more than four months, except where exporters 
representing a significant proportion of exports of the subject 
merchandise request Commerce to extend that four-month period to no 
more than six months. In the Orders, we erroneously stated that the 
four-month period, beginning on the date of publication of the 
Preliminary Determinations,\2\ ended on December 1, 2019.\3\ However, 
the last day of the 120-day period, beginning on the date of 
publication of the Preliminary Determinations, was November 28, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Vertical Metal File Cabinets From the People's Republic 
of China: Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders, 84 FR 68121 
(December 13, 2019) (Orders). The period of investigation for the AD 
investigation was October 1, 2018 through March 31, 2019. The period 
of investigation for the CVD investigation was January 1, 2018 
through December 31, 2018.
    \2\ See Vertical Metal File Cabinets from the People's Republic 
of China: Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less-Than-Fair-
Value, 83 FR 37618 (August 1, 2019); see also Vertical Metal File 
Cabinets from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary 
Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 84 FR 37622 (August 
1, 2019) (collectively, Preliminary Determinations).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Therefore, unliquidated entries of file cabinets from China 
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 
August 1, 2019, the date of publication of the Preliminary 
Determinations, are subject to the assessment of AD and CVD duties, but 
such duties will not be assessed on entries occurring after the 
expiration of the provisional measures period at midnight on the last 
day, November 28, 2019, and before publication of the ITC's final 
affirmative injury determination. No other changes have been made to 
the Orders.
    These corrected orders are published in accordance with sections 
706(a) and 736(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.211(b).

    Dated: January 14, 2020.
Jeffrey I. Kessler,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
