\1\ We have used ``Limited'', rather than the abbreviation

``Ltd.'' that was used in the Initiation Notice, because ``Limited'' is used in the Automated Commercial System Module (ACS Module)

(i.e., the Antidumping/Countervailing Duty Module).

\2\ We have used ``Company'', rather than the abbreviation

``Co.'' that was used in the Initiation Notice, because ``Company'' is used in the ACS Module.

\3\ We have used the abbreviation ``Ltd.'', rather than the word

``Limited'' that was used in the Initiation Notice, because ``Ltd.'' is used after ``a.k.a. Dorbest'' in the ACS Module.

\4\ We have used the abbreviation ``Mfg.'', rather than the word

``Manufacturing'' that was used in the Initiation Notice, because

``Mfg.'' is used in the ACS Module.

\5\ The Initiation Notice contained a capitalization error with respect to this company name, which we have corrected.

\6\ The abbreviation ``Co.'' incorrectly appeared after ``(Dong

Guan)'' in the Initiation Notice. We have removed this abbreviation from the name of the company.

\7\ We have used the abbreviation ``Ltd.'', rather than the word

``Limited'' that was used in the Initiation Notice, because ``Ltd.'' is used in the ACS Module.

\8\ The reference ``(H.K. Ltd.)'' was inadvertently omitted from the name in the Initiation Notice.

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 were part of the PRC-wide entity during the instant review period, the Department will issue assessment instructions on entries subject to the PRC-wide rate 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:

In addition, pursuant to an injunction issued in Dorbest Ltd. v.

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.

This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
