China: Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value
AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
EFFECTIVE DATE: August 4, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Drew Jackson, Import Administration,

Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Amendment to the Final Determination:
In accordance with sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended, (``the Act''), on July 2, 2010, the Department of
Commerce (``Department'') published the final determination of sales at
less than fair value (``LTFV'') in the antidumping investigation of
certain woven electric blankets (``woven electric blankets'') from the
People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See Certain Woven Electric
Blankets From the People's Republic of China: Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value, 75 FR 38459 (July 2, 2010) (``Final
Determination'').
On July 6, 2010, Jarden Consumer Solutions (``Petitioner'') filed a
timely allegation that the Department made various ministerial errors
in the Final Determination and requested, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224,
that the Department correct the alleged ministerial errors in the
calculation of the margins for respondent, Hung Kuo Electronics
(Shenzhen) Company Limited (``Hung Kuo''). No other parties in this
proceeding submitted comments on the Department's final margin
calculations or replies to Petitioner's submission.
A ministerial error is defined as an error ``in addition,
subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical error resulting
from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other type
of unintentional error which the Department considers ministerial.''
See section 735(e) of the Act; see also 19 CFR 351.224(f).
After analyzing Petitioner's comments, we have determined, in
accordance with section 735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), that
we made certain inadvertent ministerial errors in our calculations for
the final determination with respect to Hung Kuo. For a detailed
discussion of these ministerial errors, as well as the Department's
analysis of these errors, see Memorandum to Abdelali Elouaradia,
Director, AD/CVD Operations, Office 4, through Howard Smith, Program
Manager, AD/CVD Operations, Office 4, concerning, ``Antidumping Duty
Investigation of Certain Woven Electric Blankets from the People's
Republic of China: Analysis of Ministerial Error Allegations,'' dated
July 28, 2010.
Additionally, in the Final Determination, we determined that Ningbo
V.K. Industry & Trading Co., Ltd., and Ningbo Jifa Electrical
Appliances Co., Ltd./Ningbo Jinchun Electric Appliances Co., Ltd. had
demonstrated their eligibility to receive a separate rate. See Final
Determination, 75 FR 38459-38461. In the Final Determination, we
assigned Ningbo V.K. Industry & Trading Co., Ltd., and Ningbo Jifa
Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd./Ningbo Jinchun Electric Appliances Co.,
Ltd. the dumping rate calculated for Hung Kuo. For this amended final
determination, we have assigned these companies Hung Kuo's recalculated
dumping rate.
We have made no changes to the margin selected for the PRC-wide
entity.
Therefore, in accordance with section 735(e) of the Act, we are
amending the final determination of sales at LTFV in the antidumping
duty investigation of woven electric blankets from the PRC. After
correcting these ministerial errors, the revised final weighted-average
dumping margins are as follows:
Amended Final Determination Margins
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins
exist for the period October 1, 2008, through March 31, 2009:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hung Kuo Electronics (Shenzhen) Company Limited.................. 93.09 %

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation
In accordance with section 735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, the Department
will instruct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation of all entries of
woven electric blankets from the PRC, as described in the ``Scope of
Investigation'' section, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after, February 3, 2010, the date of publication of
the Preliminary Determination in the Federal Register. See Certain
Woven Electric Blankets From the People's Republic of China:
Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and
Postponement of Final Determination, 75 FR 5567 (February 3, 2010)
(``Preliminary Determination''). The Department will instruct CBP to
require a cash deposit or the posting of a bond equal to the weighted-
average dumping margin amount by which the normal value exceeds U.S.
price, as follows: (1) The rate for the exporter/producer combinations
listed in the
[[Page 46912]]
chart above will be the rate the Department has determined in this
final determination; (2) for all PRC exporters of subject merchandise
which have not received their own rate, the cash-deposit rate will be
the PRC-wide entity rate; and (3) for all non-PRC exporters of subject
merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash-deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to the PRC exporter/producer
combination that supplied that non-PRC exporter. These suspension-of-
liquidation instructions will remain in effect until further notice.
This determination is issued and published in accordance with
sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.224(e).
Dated: July 28, 2010.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
