Notice of Amended Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Color
Television Receivers from the People's Republic of China
AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 25, 2004.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Irina Itkin or Elizabeth Eastwood,
Office of AD/CVD Enforcement, Office 2, Import Administration,
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th
Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Amended Antidumping Duty Order
On May 27, 2004, the International Trade Commission (the ITC)
notified the Department of Commerce (the Department) of its final
determination pursuant to section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), that the industry in the United States
producing certain color television receivers (CTVs) is materially
injured by reason of less-than-fair-value imports of subject
merchandise from the People's Republic of China (PRC). On June 3, 2004,
in accordance with section 736(a) of the Act, the Department published
the antidumping duty order on CTVs from the PRC. See Antidumping Duty
Order: Certain Color Television Receivers From the People's Republic of
China, 69 FR 31347 (June 3, 2004). However, the antidumping duty order
contained ministerial errors in the scope section. Specifically, the
scope inadvertently included the following: 1) the sentence
'Incomplete' CTVs are defined as unassembled CTVs with a color picture
tube (i.e., cathode ray tube), printed circuit board or ceramic
substrate, together with the requisite parts to comprise a complete
CTV, when assembled,'' and 2) a sentence fragment at the end of the
scope section, which reads ``and parts or imports of assemblages of
parts that comprise less than a complete CTV.'' As noted in the final
determination, the Department has made no changes to the scope of this
investigation in the course of this proceeding. See Notice of Final
Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Negative Final
Determination of Critical Circumstances: Certain Color Television
Receivers From the People's Republic of China, 69 FR 20594 (Apr. 16,
2004). The additional sentence and the sentence fragment were
inadvertent typographical errors which constitute ministerial errors in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(f). Consequently, this amended order is
being published to correct the scope of the order.
Scope of Order
For purposes of this order, the term ``certain color television
receivers'' includes complete and incomplete direct-view or projection-
type cathode-ray tube color television receivers, with a video display
diagonal exceeding 52 centimeters, whether or not combined with video
recording or reproducing apparatus, which are capable of receiving a
broadcast television signal and producing a video image. Specifically
excluded from this order are computer monitors or other video display
devices that are not capable of receiving a broadcast television
signal.
The color television receivers subject to this order are currently
classifiable under subheadings 8528.12.2800, 8528.12.3250,
8528.12.3290, 8528.12.4000, 8528.12.5600, 8528.12.3600, 8528.12.4400,
8528.12.4800, and 8528.12.5200 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope
of the order is dispositive.
In accordance with section 736(a)(2) of the Act, the Department
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess, upon
further advice by the Department, antidumping duties equal to the
amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the U.S.
price of the merchandise for all relevant entries of CTVs from the PRC,
pursuant to the amended scope language, as discussed above.
This amended order is published in accordance with section 736(a)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.211.
Dated: June 21, 2004.
James J. Jochum,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
