AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
DATES: Effective Date: December 6, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Neubacher at (202) 482-5823 or
Jennifer Meek at (202) 482-2778; AD/CVD Operations, Office 1, Import

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 17, 2010, the Department
published an amended final determination and countervailing duty order
on certain coated paper from the People's Republic of China. See
Certain Coated Paper Suitable for High-Quality Print Graphics Using
Sheet-Fed Presses From the People's Republic of China: Amended Final
Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination and Countervailing Duty
Order, 75 FR 70201 (November 17, 2010) (``Amended Final and CVD
Order''). In the Amended Final and CVD Order, certain coated paper
suitable for high-quality print graphics using sheet-fed presses was
referred to as ``coated paper'' instead of ``certain coated paper.''
The use of the term ``coated paper'' in the ``Scope of the Order''
section rather than ``certain coated paper'' could result in confusion
with respect to the scope of the order as published. Therefore, we are
hereby correcting the notice to include the term ``certain coated
paper'' as it has appeared in prior Federal Register notices in
relation to this investigation. See Certain Coated Paper Suitable for
High-Quality Print Graphics Using Sheet-Fed Presses from the People's
Republic of China: Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigation, 74

Determination and Alignment of Final Countervailing Duty Determination
with Final Antidumping Duty Determination, 75 FR 10774 (March 9, 2010);
Certain Coated Paper Suitable For High-Quality Print Graphics Using
Sheet-Fed Presses from the People's Republic of China: Amended
Affirmative Preliminary Countervailing Duty Determination, 75 FR 30370
(June 1, 2010); and Certain Coated Paper Suitable for High-Quality
Print Graphics Using Sheet-Fed Presses From the People's Republic of
China: Final Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 75 FR 59212
(September 27, 2010).
The scope of the order should read as follows:
The merchandise covered by this order includes certain coated paper
and paperboard \1\ in sheets suitable for high quality print graphics
using sheet-fed presses; coated on one or both sides with kaolin (China
or other clay), calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide, and/or other
inorganic substances; with or without a binder; having a GE brightness
level of 80 or higher; \2\ weighing not more than 340 grams per square
meter; whether gloss grade, satin grade, matte grade, dull grade, or
any other grade of finish; whether or not surface-colored, surface-
decorated, printed (except as described below), embossed, or
perforated; and irrespective of dimensions (``Certain Coated Paper'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ `Paperboard' refers to Certain Coated Paper that is heavier,
thicker and more rigid than coated paper which otherwise meets the
product description. In the context of Certain Coated Paper,
paperboard typically is referred to as `cover,' to distinguish it
from `text.'
\2\ One of the key measurements of any grade of paper is
brightness. Generally speaking, the brighter the paper the better
the contrast between the paper and the ink. Brightness is measured
using a GE Reflectance Scale, which measures the reflection of light
off of a grade of paper. One is the lowest reflection, or what would
be given to a totally black grade, and 100 is the brightest measured
grade.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Certain Coated Paper includes: (a) Coated free sheet paper and
paperboard that meets this scope definition; (b) coated groundwood
paper and paperboard produced from bleached chemi-thermo-mechanical
pulp (``BCTMP'') that meets this scope definition; and (c) any other
coated paper and paperboard that meets this scope definition.
Certain Coated Paper is typically (but not exclusively) used for
printing multi-colored graphics for catalogues, books, magazines,
envelopes, labels and wraps, greeting cards, and other commercial
printing applications requiring high quality print graphics.
Specifically excluded from the scope are imports of paper and
paperboard printed with final content printed text or graphics.
As of 2009, imports of the subject merchandise are provided for
under the following categories of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (``HTSUS''): 4810.14.11, 4810.14.1900, 4810.14.2010,
4810.14.2090, 4810.14.5000, 4810.14.6000, 4810.14.70, 4810.19.1100,
4810.19.1900, 4810.19.2010, 4810.19.2090, 4810.22.1000, 4810.22.50,

4810.29.70, 4810.32, 4810.39 and 4810.92. While HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description
of the scope of this order is dispositive.
This notice serves to correct the shortened name used to refer to
certain coated paper suitable for high-quality print graphics using
sheet-fed presses listed in the Amended Final and CVD Order.
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 705(c)(2), 705(d), 705(e), and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended.
