DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
International Trade Administration
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Request for Revocation
in Part
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(‘‘the Department’’) has received
requests to conduct administrative
reviews of various antidumping and
countervailing duty orders and findings
with April anniversary dates. In
accordance with the Department’s
regulations, we are initiating those
administrative reviews.
DATES: Effective Date: June 3, 2013.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Brenda E. Waters, Office of AD/CVD
Operations, Customs Unit, Import
Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution
Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230,
telephone: (202) 482–4735.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
The Department has received timely
requests, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b), for administrative reviews of
various antidumping and countervailing
duty orders and findings with April
anniversary dates.
All deadlines for the submission of
various types of information,
certifications, or comments or actions by
the Department discussed below refer to
the number of calendar days from the
applicable starting time.
Notice of No Sales
If a producer or exporter named in
this notice of initiation had no exports,

03JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 106 / Monday, June 3, 2013 / Notices
sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
sales, or entries during the period of
review (‘‘POR’’), it must notify the
Department within 60 days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. All submissions must be filed
electronically at https://
iaaccess.trade.gov in accordance with
19 CFR 351.303. See Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Electronic Filing Procedures;
Administrative Protective Order
Procedures, 76 FR 39263 (July 6, 2011).
Such submissions are subject to
verification in accordance with section
782(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘Act’’). Further, in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.303(f)(3)(ii), a copy of each request
must be served on the petitioner and
each exporter or producer specified in
the request.
Respondent Selection
In the event the Department limits the
number of respondents for individual
examination for administrative reviews,
the Department intends to select
respondents based on U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) data for U.S.
imports during the POR. We intend to
release the CBP data under
Administrative Protective Order
(‘‘APO’’) to all parties having an APO
within seven days of publication of this
initiation notice and to make our
decision regarding respondent selection
within 21 days of publication of this
Federal Register notice. The
Department invites comments regarding
the CBP data and respondent selection
within five days of placement of the
CBP data on the record of the applicable
review.
In the event the Department decides
it is necessary to limit individual
examination of respondents and
conduct respondent selection under
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act:
In general, the Department has found
that determinations concerning whether
particular companies should be
‘‘collapsed’’ (i.e., treated as a single
entity for purposes of calculating
antidumping duty rates) require a
substantial amount of detailed
information and analysis, which often
require follow-up questions and
analysis. Accordingly, the Department
will not conduct collapsing analyses at
the respondent selection phase of this
review and will not collapse companies
at the respondent selection phase unless
there has been a determination to
collapse certain companies in a
previous segment of this antidumping
proceeding (i.e., investigation,
administrative review, new shipper
review or changed circumstances
review). For any company subject to this
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:40 May 31, 2013
Jkt 229001
review, if the Department determined,
or continued to treat, that company as
collapsed with others, the Department
will assume that such companies
continue to operate in the same manner
and will collapse them for respondent
selection purposes. Otherwise, the
Department will not collapse companies
for purposes of respondent selection.
Parties are requested to (a) Identify
which companies subject to review
previously were collapsed, and (b)
provide a citation to the proceeding in
which they were collapsed. Further, if
companies are requested to complete
the Quantity and Value Questionnaire
for purposes of respondent selection, in
general each company must report
volume and value data separately for
itself. Parties should not include data
for any other party, even if they believe
they should be treated as a single entity
with that other party. If a company was
collapsed with another company or
companies in the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding
where the Department considered
collapsing that entity, complete quantity
and value data for that collapsed entity
must be submitted.
Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for
Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a
party that has requested a review may
withdraw that request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. The
regulation provides that the Department
may extend this time if it is reasonable
to do so. In order to provide parties
additional certainty with respect to
when the Department will exercise its
discretion to extend this 90-day
deadline, interested parties are advised
that the Department does not intend to
extend the 90-day deadline unless the
requestor demonstrates that an
extraordinary circumstance has
prevented it from submitting a timely
withdrawal request. Determinations by
the Department to extend the 90-day
deadline will be made on a case-by-case
basis.
Separate Rates
In proceedings involving non-market
economy (‘‘NME’’) countries, the
Department begins with a rebuttable
presumption that all companies within
the country are subject to government
control and, thus, should be assigned a
single antidumping duty deposit rate. It
is the Department’s policy to assign all
exporters of merchandise subject to an
administrative review in an NME
country this single rate unless an
exporter can demonstrate that it is
PO 00000
Frm 00009
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
33053
sufficiently independent so as to be
entitled to a separate rate.
To establish whether a firm is
sufficiently independent from
government control of its export
activities to be entitled to a separate
rate, the Department analyzes each
entity exporting the subject
merchandise under a test arising from
the Final Determination of Sales at Less
Than Fair Value: Sparklers from the
People’s Republic of China, 56 FR 20588
(May 6, 1991), as amplified by Final
Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value: Silicon Carbide from the
People’s Republic of China, 59 FR 22585
(May 2, 1994). In accordance with the
separate rates criteria, the Department
assigns separate rates to companies in
NME cases only if respondents can
demonstrate the absence of both de jure
and de facto government control over
export activities.
All firms listed below that wish to
qualify for separate rate status in the
administrative reviews involving NME
countries must complete, as
appropriate, either a separate rate
application or certification, as described
below. For these administrative reviews,
in order to demonstrate separate rate
eligibility, the Department requires
entities for whom a review was
requested, that were assigned a separate
rate in the most recent segment of this
proceeding in which they participated,
to certify that they continue to meet the
criteria for obtaining a separate rate. The
Separate Rate Certification form will be
available on the Department’s Web site
at https://www.trade.gov/ia on the date of
publication of this Federal Register
notice. In responding to the
certification, please follow the
‘‘Instructions for Filing the
Certification’’ in the Separate Rate
Certification. Separate Rate
Certifications are due to the Department
no later than 60 calendar days after
publication of this Federal Register
notice. The deadline and requirement
for submitting a Certification applies
equally to NME-owned firms, wholly
foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers
who purchase and export subject
merchandise to the United States.
Entities that currently do not have a
separate rate from a completed segment
of the proceeding 1 should timely file a
Separate Rate Application to
demonstrate eligibility for a separate
1 Such entities include entities that have not
participated in the proceeding, entities that were
preliminarily granted a separate rate in any
currently incomplete segment of the proceeding
(e.g., an ongoing administrative review, new
shipper review, etc.) and entities that lost their
separate rate in the most recently complete segment
of the proceeding in which they participated.

rate in this proceeding. In addition,
companies that received a separate rate
in a completed segment of the
proceeding that have subsequently
made changes, including, but not
limited to, changes to corporate
structure, acquisitions of new
companies or facilities, or changes to
their official company name,2 should
timely file a Separate Rate Application
to demonstrate eligibility for a separate
rate in this proceeding. The Separate
Rate Status Application will be
available on the Department’s Web site
at https://www.trade.gov/ia on the date of
publication of this Federal Register
notice. In responding to the Separate
Rate Status Application, refer to the
instructions contained in the
application. Separate Rate Status
Applications are due to the Department
no later than 60 calendar days of
publication of this Federal Register
notice. The deadline and requirement
for submitting a Separate Rate Status
Application applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned
firms, and foreign sellers that purchase
and export subject merchandise to the
United States.
For exporters and producers who
submit a separate-rate status application
or certification and subsequently are
selected as mandatory respondents,
these exporters and producers will no
longer be eligible for separate rate status
unless they respond to all parts of the
questionnaire as mandatory
respondents.
Initiation of Reviews
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating
administrative reviews of the following
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders and findings. We intend to issue
the final results of these reviews not
later than April 30, 2014.

publication of an antidumping duty
order under 19 CFR 351.211 or a

suspended investigation (after sunset
review), the Secretary, if requested by a
domestic interested party within 30
days of the date of publication of the
notice of initiation of the review, will
determine, consistent with FAG Italia v.
United States, 291 F.3d 806 (Fed Cir.
2002), as appropriate, whether
antidumping duties have been absorbed
by an exporter or producer subject to the
review if the subject merchandise is
sold in the United States through an
importer that is affiliated with such
exporter or producer. The request must
include the name(s) of the exporter or
producer for which the inquiry is
requested.
For the first administrative review of
any order, there will be no assessment
of antidumping or countervailing duties
on entries of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption during the relevant
provisional-measures ‘‘gap’’ period, of
the order, if such a gap period is
applicable to the POR.

Revised Factual Information
Requirements
On April 10, 2013, the Department
published Definition of Factual
Information and Time Limits for
Submission of Factual Information:
Final Rule, 78 FR 21246 (April 10,
2013), which modified two regulations
related to antidumping and
countervailing duty proceedings: the
definition of factual information (19
CFR 351.102(b)(21)), and the time limits
for the submission of factual
information (19 CFR 351.301). The final
rule identifies five categories of factual
information in 19 CFR 351.102(b)(21),
which are summarized as follows: (i)
Evidence submitted in response to
questionnaires; (ii) evidence submitted
in support of allegations; (iii) publicly
available information to value factors
under 19 CFR 351.408(c) or to measure
the adequacy of remuneration under 19
CFR 351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence placed
on the record by the Department; and (v)
evidence other than factual information
described in (i)–(iv). The final rule
requires any party, when submitting
factual information, to specify under
which subsection of 19 CFR
351.102(b)(21) the information is being
submitted and, if the information is
submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct
factual information already on the
record, to provide an explanation
identifying the information already on
the record that the factual information
seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The
final rule also modified 19 CFR 351.301
so that, rather than providing general
time limits, there are specific time limits
based on the type of factual information
being submitted. These modifications
are effective for all segments initiated on
or after May 10, 2013. Please review the

Background
On September 4, 2012, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:40 May 31, 2013
Jkt 229001
Department’’) published in the Federal
Register a notice of ‘‘Opportunity to
Request Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order on certain new
pneumatic off-the-road tires from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) for
the period of review (‘‘POR’’) September
1, 2011, through August 31, 2012.1
On September 28, 2012, and October
1, 2012, in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’), and 19 CFR
351.213(b), the Department received a
timely request from Shandong Ling
Long Tyre Co., Ltd. (‘‘Linglong’’) and
Hangzhou Zhongce Rubber Co., Ltd.
(‘‘Zhongce’’), respectively, to conduct an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order with regard to
its exports to the United States during
the POR.
On October 31, 2012, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of an administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain new pneumatic off-the-road
tires, with respect to the above-named
companies.2
On December 10, 2012, Zhongce
timely withdrew its request for a review
and, on January 29, 2013, Linglong
timely withdrew its request for a review.
Rescission
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the parties that requested a
review withdraw the request within 90
days of the date of publication of notice
of initiation of the requested review.
Linglong and Zhongce withdrew their
requests for review before the 90-day
deadline, and no other party requested
an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on new
pneumatic off-the-road tires from the
PRC for the POR. Therefore, in response
to Linglong’s and Zhongce’s withdrawal
of requests for review and pursuant to
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are fully
rescinding this review.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. Antidumping duties
shall be assessed at rates equal to the
cash deposit of estimated antidumping
duties required at the time of entry, or

intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only
reminder to importers of their
responsibility, under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2), 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 presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
of their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely
written notification of return/
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
This notice is published in
accordance with section 751 of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part
AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') has received
requests to conduct administrative reviews of various antidumping and
countervailing duty orders and findings with April anniversary dates.
In accordance with the Department's regulations, we are initiating
those administrative reviews.
DATES: Effective Date: June 3, 2013.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brenda E. Waters, Office of AD/CVD
Operations, Customs Unit, Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230, telephone: (202) 482-
4735.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department has received timely requests, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.213(b), for administrative reviews of various antidumping and
countervailing duty orders and findings with April anniversary dates.
All deadlines for the submission of various types of information,
certifications, or comments or actions by the Department discussed
below refer to the number of calendar days from the applicable starting
time.
Notice of No Sales
If a producer or exporter named in this notice of initiation had no
exports,
[[Page 33053]]
sales, or entries during the period of review (``POR''), it must notify
the Department within 60 days of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register. All submissions must be filed electronically at
https://iaaccess.trade.gov in accordance with 19 CFR 351.303. See
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Electronic Filing
Procedures; Administrative Protective Order Procedures, 76 FR 39263
(July 6, 2011). Such submissions are subject to verification in
accordance with section 782(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(``Act''). Further, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.303(f)(3)(ii), a copy
of each request must be served on the petitioner and each exporter or
producer specified in the request.
Respondent Selection
In the event the Department limits the number of respondents for
individual examination for administrative reviews, the Department
intends to select respondents based on U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') data for U.S. imports during the POR. We intend to
release the CBP data under Administrative Protective Order (``APO'') to
all parties having an APO within seven days of publication of this
initiation notice and to make our decision regarding respondent
selection within 21 days of publication of this Federal Register
notice. The Department invites comments regarding the CBP data and
respondent selection within five days of placement of the CBP data on
the record of the applicable review.
In the event the Department decides it is necessary to limit
individual examination of respondents and conduct respondent selection
under section 777A(c)(2) of the Act:
In general, the Department has found that determinations concerning
whether particular companies should be ``collapsed'' (i.e., treated as
a single entity for purposes of calculating antidumping duty rates)
require a substantial amount of detailed information and analysis,
which often require follow-up questions and analysis. Accordingly, the
Department will not conduct collapsing analyses at the respondent
selection phase of this review and will not collapse companies at the
respondent selection phase unless there has been a determination to
collapse certain companies in a previous segment of this antidumping
proceeding (i.e., investigation, administrative review, new shipper
review or changed circumstances review). For any company subject to
this review, if the Department determined, or continued to treat, that
company as collapsed with others, the Department will assume that such
companies continue to operate in the same manner and will collapse them
for respondent selection purposes. Otherwise, the Department will not
collapse companies for purposes of respondent selection. Parties are
requested to (a) Identify which companies subject to review previously
were collapsed, and (b) provide a citation to the proceeding in which
they were collapsed. Further, if companies are requested to complete
the Quantity and Value Questionnaire for purposes of respondent
selection, in general each company must report volume and value data
separately for itself. Parties should not include data for any other
party, even if they believe they should be treated as a single entity
with that other party. If a company was collapsed with another company
or companies in the most recently completed segment of this proceeding
where the Department considered collapsing that entity, complete
quantity and value data for that collapsed entity must be submitted.
Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a party that has requested a
review may withdraw that request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. The
regulation provides that the Department may extend this time if it is
reasonable to do so. In order to provide parties additional certainty
with respect to when the Department will exercise its discretion to
extend this 90-day deadline, interested parties are advised that the
Department does not intend to extend the 90-day deadline unless the
requestor demonstrates that an extraordinary circumstance has prevented
it from submitting a timely withdrawal request. Determinations by the
Department to extend the 90-day deadline will be made on a case-by-case
basis.
Separate Rates
In proceedings involving non-market economy (``NME'') countries,
the Department begins with a rebuttable presumption that all companies
within the country are subject to government control and, thus, should
be assigned a single antidumping duty deposit rate. It is the
Department's policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to
an administrative review in an NME country this single rate unless an
exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as to
be entitled to a separate rate.
To establish whether a firm is sufficiently independent from
government control of its export activities to be entitled to a
separate rate, the Department analyzes each entity exporting the
subject merchandise under a test arising from the Final Determination
of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Sparklers from the People's Republic
of China, 56 FR 20588 (May 6, 1991), as amplified by Final
Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Silicon Carbide from
the People's Republic of China, 59 FR 22585 (May 2, 1994). In
accordance with the separate rates criteria, the Department assigns
separate rates to companies in NME cases only if respondents can
demonstrate the absence of both de jure and de facto government control
over export activities.
All firms listed below that wish to qualify for separate rate
status in the administrative reviews involving NME countries must
complete, as appropriate, either a separate rate application or
certification, as described below. For these administrative reviews, in
order to demonstrate separate rate eligibility, the Department requires
entities for whom a review was requested, that were assigned a separate
rate in the most recent segment of this proceeding in which they
participated, to certify that they continue to meet the criteria for
obtaining a separate rate. The Separate Rate Certification form will be
available on the Department's Web site at https://www.trade.gov/ia on
the date of publication of this Federal Register notice. In responding
to the certification, please follow the ``Instructions for Filing the
Certification'' in the Separate Rate Certification. Separate Rate
Certifications are due to the Department no later than 60 calendar days
after publication of this Federal Register notice. The deadline and
requirement for submitting a Certification applies equally to NME-owned
firms, wholly foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers who purchase and
export subject merchandise to the United States.
Entities that currently do not have a separate rate from a
completed segment of the proceeding \1\ should timely file a Separate
Rate Application to demonstrate eligibility for a separate
[[Page 33054]]
rate in this proceeding. In addition, companies that received a
separate rate in a completed segment of the proceeding that have
subsequently made changes, including, but not limited to, changes to
corporate structure, acquisitions of new companies or facilities, or
changes to their official company name,\2\ should timely file a
Separate Rate Application to demonstrate eligibility for a separate
rate in this proceeding. The Separate Rate Status Application will be
available on the Department's Web site at https://www.trade.gov/ia on
the date of publication of this Federal Register notice. In responding
to the Separate Rate Status Application, refer to the instructions
contained in the application. Separate Rate Status Applications are due
to the Department no later than 60 calendar days of publication of this
Federal Register notice. The deadline and requirement for submitting a
Separate Rate Status Application applies equally to NME-owned firms,
wholly foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers that purchase and
export subject merchandise to the United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Such entities include entities that have not participated in
the proceeding, entities that were preliminarily granted a separate
rate in any currently incomplete segment of the proceeding (e.g., an
ongoing administrative review, new shipper review, etc.) and
entities that lost their separate rate in the most recently complete
segment of the proceeding in which they participated.
\2\ Only changes to the official company name, rather than trade
names, need to be addressed via a Separate Rate Application.
Information regarding new trade names may be submitted via a
Separate Rate Certification.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For exporters and producers who submit a separate-rate status
application or certification and subsequently are selected as mandatory
respondents, these exporters and producers will no longer be eligible
for separate rate status unless they respond to all parts of the
questionnaire as mandatory respondents.
Initiation of Reviews
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating
administrative reviews of the following antidumping and countervailing
duty orders and findings. We intend to issue the final results of these
reviews not later than April 30, 2014.

\3\ Pursuant to the American Shrimp Processors Association's
(``ASPA'') request for administrative review, on April 2, 2013, the
Department initiated an administrative review of the antidumping
duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp from India with
respect to a company named ``Allansons Ltd'' See Certain Frozen
Warmwater Shrimp From India and Thailand: Notice of Initiation of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews, 78 FR 19639, 19640 (April
2, 2013). On May 8, 2013, the ASPA filed a letter clarifying that it
intended to request an administrative review of ``Allanasons Ltd,''
not ``Allansons Ltd'' Consequently, we are correcting the April 2,
2013, notice to initiate the review with respect to Allanasons Ltd
rather than Allansons Ltd
\4\ If one of the above-named companies does not qualify for a
separate rate, all other exporters of Certain Activated Carbon from
the People's Rebublic of China (``PRC'') who have not qualified for
a separate rate are deemed to be covered by this review as part of
the single PRC entity of which the named exporters are a part.
\5\ If one of the above-named companies does not qualify for a
separate rate, all other exporters of Certain Steel Threaded Rod
from the PRC who have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed
to be covered by this review as part of the single PRC entity of
which the named exporters are a part.
\6\ If one of the above-named companies does not qualify for a
separate rate, all other exporters of Frontseating Service Valves
from the PRC who have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed
to be covered by this review as part of the single PRC entity of
which the named exporters are a part.
\7\ If one of the above-named companies does not qualify for a
separate rate, all other exporters of 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-
Diphosphorice Acid (``HEDP'') from the PRC who have not qualified
for a separate rate are deemed to be covered by this review as part
of the single PRC entity of which the named exporters are a part.
\8\ If one of the above-named companies does not qualify for a
separate rate, all other exporters of Magnesium Metal from the PRC
who have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed to be covered
by this review as part of the single PRC entity of which the named
exporters are a part.
\9\ The company names listed above were misspelled in the
initiation notice that published on May 1, 2013 (78 FR 25421). The
correct spelling of the company names is listed in this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
During any administrative review covering all or part of a period
falling between the first and second or third and fourth anniversary of
the publication of an antidumping duty order under 19 CFR 351.211 or a
determination under 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4) to continue an order or
suspended investigation (after sunset review), the Secretary, if
requested by a domestic interested party within 30 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the review, will determine,
consistent with FAG Italia v. United States, 291 F.3d 806 (Fed Cir.
2002), as appropriate, whether antidumping duties have been absorbed by
an exporter or producer subject to the review if the subject
merchandise is sold in the United States through an importer that is
affiliated with such exporter or producer. The request must include the
name(s) of the exporter or producer for which the inquiry is requested.
For the first administrative review of any order, there will be no
assessment of antidumping or countervailing duties on entries of
subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption during the relevant provisional-measures ``gap'' period, of
the order, if such a gap period is applicable to the POR.
Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under
administrative protective orders in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. On
January 22, 2008, the Department published Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Documents Submission Procedures; APO
Procedures, 73 FR 3634 (January 22, 2008). Those procedures apply to
administrative reviews included in this notice of initiation. Parties
wishing to participate in any of these administrative reviews should
ensure that the meet the requirements of these procedures (e.g., the
filing of separate letters of appearance as discussed at 19 CFR
351.103(d)).
Revised Factual Information Requirements
On April 10, 2013, the Department published Definition of Factual
Information and Time Limits for Submission of Factual Information:
Final Rule, 78 FR 21246 (April 10, 2013), which modified two
regulations related to antidumping and countervailing duty proceedings:
the definition of factual information (19 CFR 351.102(b)(21)), and the
time limits for the submission of factual information (19 CFR 351.301).
The final rule identifies five categories of factual information in 19
CFR 351.102(b)(21), which are summarized as follows: (i) Evidence
submitted in response to questionnaires; (ii) evidence submitted in
support of allegations; (iii) publicly available information to value
factors under 19 CFR 351.408(c) or to measure the adequacy of
remuneration under 19 CFR 351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence placed on the
record by the Department; and (v) evidence other than factual
information described in (i)-(iv). The final rule requires any party,
when submitting factual information, to specify under which subsection
of 19 CFR 351.102(b)(21) the information is being submitted and, if the
information is submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct factual
information already on the record, to provide an explanation
identifying the information already on the record that the factual
information seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The final rule also
modified 19 CFR 351.301 so that, rather than providing general time
limits, there are specific time limits based on the type of factual
information being submitted. These modifications are effective for all
segments initiated on or after May 10, 2013. Please review the final
rule, available at https://
[[Page 33059]]
ia.ita.doc.gov/frn/2013/1304frn/2013-08227.txt, prior to submitting
factual information in this segment.
Any party submitting factual information in an antidumping duty or
countervailing duty proceeding must certify to the accuracy and
completeness of that information. See section 782(b) of the Act.
Parties are hereby reminded that revised certification requirements are
in effect for company/government officials as well as their
representatives in all segments of any antidumping duty or
countervailing duty proceedings initiated on or after March 14, 2011.
See Certification of Factual Information to Import Administration
During Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Interim Final
Rule, 76 FR 7491 (February 10, 2011) (``Interim Final Rule''), amending
19 CFR 351.303(g)(1) and (2). The formats for the revised
certifications are provided at the end of the Interim Final Rule. The
Department intends to reject factual submissions in any proceeding
segments initiated on or after March 14, 2011 if the submitting party
does not comply with the revised certification requirements.
These initiations and this notice are in accordance with section
751(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i).
Dated: May 29, 2013.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
