SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on
polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet,
and strip (PET Film) from India. The
period of review (POR) is July 1, 2011,
through June 30, 2012. This review
covers three respondents, Jindal Poly
Films Limited (Jindal), SRF Limited
(SRF), and Polyplex Corporation Ltd.
(Polyplex). Jindal and SRF were selected

as the mandatory respondents while
Polyplex is the non-selected respondent.
The Department preliminarily
determines that SRF did, and that Jindal
did not, make sales of subject
merchandise at prices below normal
value (NV) during the POR. The
preliminary results are listed below in
the section titled ‘‘Preliminary Results
of Review.’’ Interested parties are
invited to comment on these
preliminary results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the
antidumping duty order are all gauges of
raw, pretreated, or primed PET Film,
whether extruded or coextruded.
Excluded are metallized films and other
finished films that have had at least one
of their surfaces modified by the
application of a performance-enhancing
resinous or inorganic layer of more than
0.00001 inches thick. Imports of PET
Film are currently classifiable in the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) under item
number 3920.62.00.90. HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes. The
written description of the scope of the
antidumping duty order is dispositive.
Methodology
The Department has conducted this
review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). Export price and
constructed export price are calculated
in accordance with section 772 of the
Act. NV is calculated in accordance
with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology
underlying our conclusions, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum,
which is hereby adopted by this notice.1

Non-Selected Respondent
With regard to determining an
appropriate rate to be applied to the
non-selected respondent Polyplex, the
statute and the Department’s regulations
do not directly address the
establishment of a rate to be applied to
companies not selected for individual
examination where the Department
limited its examination in an
administrative review pursuant to
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. The
Department’s practice in cases involving
limited selection of respondents has
been to look for guidance in section
735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides
instructions for calculating the allothers rate in an investigation. The
Department generally weight-averages
the rates calculated for the mandatory
respondents, excluding zero and de
minimis rates and rates based entirely
on facts available, and applies that
resulting weighted-average margin to
non-selected respondents.2
In this review, we have preliminarily
calculated a zero or de minimis
weighted-average dumping margin for
mandatory respondent Jindal and an
above de minimis rate for the other
mandatory respondent, SRF. Based on
this, we have based the dumping margin
for Polyplex on the above de minimis
rate calculated for SRF.

requirement could result in the
Department’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 1, 2012, the Department
initiated, and the ITC instituted, a
sunset review of the suspended
antidumping duty investigation on
lemon juice from Argentina
(‘‘suspended investigation’’), pursuant
to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See
Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review
and Correction, 77 FR 45589 (August 1,
2012) and [Investigation Nos. 731–TA–
1105–1106 (Review)] Lemon Juice from
Argentina and Mexico, 77 FR 45653
(August 1, 2012). As a result of its
review, the Department determined that
termination of the suspended
investigation on lemon juice from
Argentina would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and notified the ITC of the magnitude of
the margins likely to prevail, should the
suspended investigation be terminated.
See Lemon Juice from Argentina; Final
Results of the Expedited First Sunset
Review of the Suspended Antidumping
Duty Investigation, 77 FR 73021
(December 7, 2012).
On July 10, 2013, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Act, the ITC determined
that termination of the suspended
investigation on lemon juice from
Argentina would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. See Lemon Juice from Argentina,
78 FR 46610 (August 1, 2013).
Therefore, pursuant to section
351.218(f)(4) of the Department’s
regulations, the Department is
publishing this notice of the
continuation of the suspended
investigation on lemon juice from
Argentina.
Scope
The merchandise covered by the
suspended investigation includes
certain lemon juice for further
manufacture, with or without addition
of preservatives, sugar, or other
sweeteners, regardless of the GPL (grams
per liter of citric acid) level of

pulp content, clarity, grade, horticulture
method (e.g., organic or not), processed
form (e.g., frozen or not-fromconcentrate), FDA standard of identity,
the size of the container in which
packed, or the method of packing.
Excluded from the scope are: (1)
Lemon juice at any level of
concentration packed in retail-sized
containers ready for sale to consumers,
typically at a level of concentration of
48 GPL; and (2) beverage products such
as lemonade that typically contain 20%
or less lemon juice as an ingredient.
Lemon juice is classifiable under
subheadings 2009.39.6020,
2009.31.6020, 2009.31.4000,
2009.31.6040, and 2009.39.6040 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). While HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, our
written description of the scope of the
suspended investigation is dispositive.
Continuation of the Suspended
Investigation
As a result of the respective
determinations by the Department and
the ITC that termination of the
suspended investigation on lemon juice
from Argentina would likely lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department
hereby gives notice of the continuation
of the suspended investigation on lemon
juice from Argentina. The effective date
of continuation will be the date of
publication in the Federal Register of
this Continuation Notice. Because the
Department is continuing the suspended
investigation, the suspension agreement
will also continue to remain in effect.
See Suspension of Antidumping Duty
Investigation: Lemon Juice From
Argentina, 72 FR 53991 (September 21,
2007). Pursuant to sections 751(c)(2) of
the Act, the Department intends to
initiate the next five-year sunset review
of the suspended investigation on lemon
juice from Argentina not later than 30
days prior to the fifth anniversary of the
effective date of continuation.
This five-year (sunset) review and
notice are in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on polyethylene
terephthalate film, sheet, and strip (PET Film) from India. The period
of review (POR) is July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012. This review
covers three respondents, Jindal Poly Films Limited (Jindal), SRF
Limited (SRF), and Polyplex Corporation Ltd. (Polyplex). Jindal and SRF
were selected as the mandatory respondents while Polyplex is the non-
selected respondent. The Department preliminarily determines that SRF
did, and that Jindal did not, make sales of subject merchandise at
prices below normal value (NV) during the POR. The preliminary results
are listed below in the section titled ``Preliminary Results of
Review.'' Interested parties are invited to comment on these
preliminary results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the antidumping duty order are all gauges
of raw, pretreated, or primed PET Film, whether extruded or coextruded.
Excluded are metallized films and other finished films that have had at
least one of their surfaces modified by the application of a
performance-enhancing resinous or inorganic layer of more than 0.00001

Methodology
The Department has conducted this review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Export price
and constructed export price are calculated in accordance with section
772 of the Act. NV is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the
Act. For a full description of the methodology underlying our
conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, which is hereby

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Selected Respondent
With regard to determining an appropriate rate to be applied to the
non-selected respondent Polyplex, the statute and the Department's
regulations do not directly address the establishment of a rate to be
applied to companies not selected for individual examination where the
Department limited its examination in an administrative review pursuant
to section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. The Department's practice in cases
involving limited selection of respondents has been to look for
guidance in section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions
for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation. The Department
generally weight-averages the rates calculated for the mandatory
respondents, excluding zero and de minimis rates and rates based
entirely on facts available, and applies that resulting weighted-
average margin to non-selected respondents.\2\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this review, we have preliminarily calculated a zero or de
minimis weighted-average dumping margin for mandatory respondent Jindal
and an above de minimis rate for the other mandatory respondent, SRF.
Based on this, we have based the dumping margin for Polyplex on the
above de minimis rate calculated for SRF.

margins exist for the period July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012.

Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. We will instruct CBP to liquidate entries of merchandise
produced and/or exported by Jindal, SRF, and Polyplex. The Department
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date
of publication of the final results of review. For assessment purposes,
where the respondent reported the entered value for its sales, we
calculated importer-specific (or customer-specific) ad valorem
assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of the dumping
duties calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of
those same sales.\10\ However, where the respondent did not report the
entered value for its sales, we will calculate importer-specific (or
customer-specific) per-unit duty assessment rates. We will instruct CBP
to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this
review if any per-unit duty assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is above de minimis (i.e., at or above 0.50
percent). For any individually examined respondents whose weighted-
average dumping margin is above de minimis in the final results, we
will calculate importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based
on the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for
the importer's examined sales to the total entered value of the sales
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to
antidumping duties any entries for which the assessment rate is zero or
de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent).\11\

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of PET Film from India entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the company
under review will be the rate established in the final results of this
review (except, if the rate is zero or de minimis, i.e., less than 0.5
percent, no cash deposit will be required); (2) for previously reviewed
or investigated companies not listed above, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a
prior review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for
the most recent period
[[Page 48145]]
for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) if neither the
exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered in this or any previous
review, the cash deposit rate will be the all others rate for this
proceeding, 5.71 percent. These deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers 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 Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: July 31, 2013 .
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
