The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For those companies for which
this review has been rescinded and which have a separate rate from a prior
segment of this proceeding, 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)(2). Accordingly, the Department intends to issue appropriate
assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice
for the following companies: 1) Beijing Daruixing Nails Products Co., Ltd.; 2)
Chongqing Hybest Tools Group Co., Ltd.; 3) Guangdong Foreign Trade Import
&Export Corporation; 4) Hebei Cangzhou New Century Foreign Trade Co., Ltd.;
5) Jining Huarong Hardware Products Co., Ltd.; 6) Mingguang Abundant Hardware
Products Co., Ltd.; 7) PT Enterprise Inc.; 8) SDC International Australia Pty.,
Ltd.; 9) Shandong Oriental Cherry Hardware Group Co., Ltd.; 10) Shandong

13) Shanxi Hairui Trade Co., Ltd.; 14) Shanxi Pioneer Hardware Industrial Co..
Ltd.; 15) Shanxi Tianli Industries Co.; 16) Shanxi Yuci Broad Wire Products Co.,
Ltd.; 17) Smart (Tianjin) Technology Development Co., Ltd.; 18) Suntec

Zhaoqing Harvest Nails Co., Ltd.; 26) Suzhou Xingya Nail Co., Ltd.; 27) Beijing
Hong Sheng Metal Products Co., Ltd.; 28) Beijing Hongsheng Metal Products Co.,
Ltd.4; and 29) Tianjin Xiantong. This administrative review will
continue with respect to the remaining companies in the Initiation Notice.
4Beijing Hong Sheng Metal Products Co., Ltd. and Beijing Hongsheng Metal
Products Co., Ltd. appear to be slight variations of the name for a single
company. Beijing Hong Sheng Metal Products Co., Ltd. received a separate rate as
a producer/exporter in the original investigation, and Beijing Hongsheng Metal
Products Co., Ltd. was the producer in a combination rate with the exporter
Hebei Cangzhou New Century Foreign Trade Co., Ltd., for which this review is
also being rescinded. As such, the Department is rescinding the review for both
variations of the name.
The Department cannot order liquidation for companies which, although they are
no longer under review as a separate entity, may still be under review as part
of the PRCwide entity. In this case, the Department cannot order liquidation for
certain companies that have not received a separate rate, as an exporter, from
the prior investigation. See Certain Steel Nails from the People's Republic
of China: Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Partial
Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, 73 FR 33977 (June 16,
2008). Therefore, the Department cannot, at this time, order liquidation of
entries for the following companies: 1) Qingdao Jisco Co., Ltd.; and 2) Qingdao
Koram Steel Co., Ltd. The Department intends to issue liquidation instructions
for the PRCwide entity 15 days after publication of the final results of this
review.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this review is
being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) 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 the antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: June 30, 2010.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
