SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 27, 1995, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
published the preliminary results of its administrative review of the
antidumping finding (37 FR 11773, June 14, 1972) on large power
transformers from Japan in the Federal Register (57 FR 53468). The
Department has now completed that administrative review in accordance
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Tariff
Act).
Applicable Statute and Regulations
Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute and to the
Department's regulations are references to the provisions as they
existed on December 31, 1994.
Scope of the Review
Imports covered by the review are shipments of large power
transformers; that is, all types of transformers rated 10,000 kVA
(kilovolt-amperes) or above, by whatever name designated, used in the
generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization of electric
power. The term ``transformers'' includes, but is not limited to, shunt
reactors, autotransformers, rectifier transformers, and power rectifier
transformers. Not included are combination units, commonly known as
rectiformers, if the entire integrated assembly is imported in the same
shipment and entered on the same entry and the assembly has been
ordered and invoiced as a unit, without a separate price for the
transformer portion of the assembly. This merchandise is currently
classifiable under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) item numbers
8504.22.00, 8504.23.00, 8504.34.33, 8504.40.00, and 8504.50.00. The HTS
item numbers are provided for convenience and Customs purposes. The
written description remains dispositive.
The review covers one manufacturer/exporter of transformers, Fuji
Electric Co., Ltd. (Fuji). The period of review is June 1, 1993,
through May 31, 1994.
Final Results of Review
Although we gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on
the preliminary results, we did not receive any comments. Because Fuji
reported, and the Department verified through the Customs Service, that
Fuji made no shipments to the United States during the period of
review, a cash deposit rate of 5.90 percent, which is Fuji's rate from
the final results of the last review period in which Fuji made
shipments, will remain in effect for Fuji.
Furthermore, the following deposit requirements will be effective
upon publication of these final results of administrative review for
all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption, as provided by section 751(a)(1) of the
Tariff Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the reviewed company will be
the rate as listed above; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated
companies not listed above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or
the original less-than-fair-value investigation, but the manufacturer
is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most
recent period for the manufacturer of the merchandise, and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufactures or exporters will continue to
be 10.63 percent (see Large Power Transformers from Japan; Final
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 59 FR 44498, August
23, 1993).
These cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until
publication of the final results of the next administrative review.
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 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 presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 353.34(d). 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 the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
This administrative review and notice are in accordance with
section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1)) and 19 CFR
353.22.
Dated: September 20, 1995.
Paul L. Joffe,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
