Background
On January 4, 2005, the Department of Commerce (Department)
published in the Federal Register the antidumping duty order on wooden
bedroom furniture from the People's Republic of China (PRC). See Notice
of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and
Antidumping Duty Order: Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's
Republic of China, 70 FR 329 (January 4, 2005). On January 11, 2010,
the Department published a notice of opportunity to request an
administrative review of the wooden bedroom furniture order. See
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review, 75 FR 1333
(January 11, 2010).
The Department received multiple timely requests for an
administrative review of the wooden bedroom furniture order and on
March 4, 2010, in accordance with section 751(a) of Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act), published in the Federal Register a notice of the
initiation of an administrative review of that order. See Initiation of
Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Wooden Bedroom
Furniture From the People's Republic of China, 75 FR 9869 (March 4,
2010) (Initiation Notice). The administrative review was initiated with
respect to 171 companies or groups of companies, and covers the period
from January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009.
Partial Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an
[[Page 54855]]
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review.
Because all requesting parties withdrew their respective requests for
an administrative review of the following entities within 90 days of

Rescission of the Fairmont Group
Dongguan Sunrise Furniture Co., Taicang Sunrise Wood Industry Co.,
Ltd., Shanghai Sunrise Furniture Co., Ltd., Fairmont Designs, Meizhou
Sunrise Furniture Co., Ltd. (collectively, the Fairmont Group) withdrew
its request for an administrative review after the 90-day deadline
established by 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). However, 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1)
further states that the Secretary may extend this time limit if the
Secretary finds it reasonable to do so. Although the Fairmont Group
withdrew its review request after the 90-day deadline, the Department
finds it reasonable to extend the deadline for parties to withdraw
their request for review with respect to the Fairmont Group because the
Department has not yet committed substantial resources to reviewing the
Fairmont Group in the instant review and because all parties who
requested the review have subsequently withdrawn their requests.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding
this review of the antidumping duty order, with respect to the Fairmont
Group.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For the
companies listed above which had a separate rate granted in a
previously completed segment of this proceeding that was in effect
during the instant review period, antidumping duties shall be assessed
on entries subject to the separate rate 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 intends to issue appropriate
assessment instructions for such companies directly to CBP 15 days
after the publication of this notice in the Federal Register. For any
of the companies listed above that do not currently have a separate
rate (and thus remain a part of the PRC-wide entity), the Department
will issue assessment instructions upon the completion of this
administrative review. The companies from the above list for which the
Department will not issue assessment instructions until the completion
of the instant review are as follows:
C.F. Kent Co., Inc.
C.F. Kent Hospitality, Inc.
Contact Co., Ltd.
Denny's Furniture Associates Corp.
Denny's International Co., Ltd.

In addition, pursuant to an injunction issued in Dorbest Ltd. v.
United States, CIT No. 05-0003, on June 3, 2008, the Department must
continue to suspend liquidation of entries exported by Dorbest
Limited., Rui Feng Woodwork (Dongguan) Co., Ltd., and Rui Feng Lumber
Development (Shenzen) Co., Ltd. on or after January 1, 2008, pending a
conclusive court decision.
The review will continue with respect to all other entities
identified in the Initiation Notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers whose entries
will be liquidated as a result of this rescission notice, 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(a)(3), 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.
