Color Television Receivers from the Republic of Korea; Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews

On February 16, 1995, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of its administrative reviews of the antidumping duty order on color television receivers (CTVs) from the Republic of Korea covering exports of this merchandise to the United States by certain manufacturers. Based on our preliminary review of these exports during the period April 1, 1988 through March 31, 1989 and April 1, 1989 through March 31, 1990, we found margins for all reviewed companies with the exception of respondent Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (Samsung), which has a de minimis margin in both of our reviews. We invited interested parties to comment on the preliminary results. We received comments from the Independent Radionic Workers of America; the International Union of Electronic, Electrical, Technical, Salaried, and Machine Workers, AFL-CIO; the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers of America; and the Industrial Union Department, AFL-CIO (petitioners). We also received comments from Samsung and rebuttals to Samsung's comments from Zenith Electric Corporation (Zenith), a domestic interested party. We have now completed our final results of review and determine that the results with respect to Samsung remain de miminis; those with respect to the other manufacturers have not changed from those presented in our preliminary results.
