SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Following the Preliminary Results, we
received case briefs from the
Government of the People’s Republic of
China (GOC) and Yida Group on May 6,
2013. On June 24, 2013, we rejected the
GOC’s case brief because it contained
untimely filed new factual information
and informed the GOC that it could resubmit its case brief excluding the new
information; on June 26, 2013, the GOC
re-submitted its case brief. No interested
party submitted a rebuttal brief. We did
not hold a hearing in this review, as one
was not requested.
Scope of the Order
The scope of the order consists of
steel drill pipe and steel drill collars,
whether or not conforming to American
Petroleum Institute (API) or non-API
specifications.2 The merchandise
subject to the order is currently
classifiable under the Harmonized Tariff

Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) initiated the second
sunset review of the countervailing duty
order on polyethylene terephthalate
(PET) film, sheet, and strip (‘‘PET film’’)
from India. The Department finds that
revocation of this countervailing duty
order (CVD’’) would be likely to lead to
the continuation or recurrence of net
countervailable subsidies at the rates in
the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of
this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
The CVD order on PET film from
India was published on July 1, 2002. See
Notice of Countervailing Duty Order:
Polyethylene Terephthalate Film, Sheet,
and Strip From India, 67 FR 44179 (July
1, 2002). On April 2, 2012, the
Department initiated the second sunset
review of the order, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). See Initiation of
Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 78 FR
19647 (April 2, 2013). The Department
received notices of intent to participate
from DuPont Teijin Films, Mitsubishi
Polyester Film, Inc., and SKC, Inc.
(collectively, ‘‘domestic interested
parties’’) within the deadline specified
in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). The
Department received an adequate
substantive response to the notice of
initiation from the domestic interested
parties within the 30-day deadline
specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).
The Department received no substantive
responses from the Government of India
(‘‘GOI’’) and respondent interested
parties.
The regulations provide, at 19 CFR
351.218 (e)(1)(ii)(A), that the
Department will normally conclude that
respondent interested parties have
provided adequate response to a notice
of initiation where it receives complete
substantive responses from respondent
interested parties accounting on average
for more than 50 percent, on a volume
basis (or a value basis, if appropriate),
of the total exports of the subject
merchandise to the United States over
the five calendar years preceding the
year of publication of the notice of
initiation. Moreover, in a sunset review
of a CVD order, the Department will
