SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 29, 2013, the CIT granted the
Department’s motion for voluntary
remand in Tianjin Wanhua Co., Ltd. v.
United States to reconsider the separate
rate methodology as applied to Wanhua
with respect to the PET Film Final
Results and the results of the CIT’s
judgment in Fuwei Films (Shandong)
Co., Ltd. v. United States in which the
weighted-average dumping margins for
the mandatory respondents were
revised.3 Pursuant to the CIT’s remand
order, the Department re-examined
record evidence and made changes to
the separate rate applicable to Wanhua.
Specifically, the Department followed
its practice in calculating a separate rate
where the individually investigated
respondents received rates that were
zero, de minimis, or based entirely on
facts available,4 and applied the most
recently determined weighted-average
dumping margin that was not zero, de
minimis, or based entirely on facts

available. In this case, the Department
pulled forward Wanhua’s separate rate
from the investigation.5
Timken Notice
In its decision in Timken, as clarified
by Diamond Sawblades, the CAFC held
that, pursuant to section 516A(e) of the
Act, the Department must publish a
notice of a court decision that is not ‘‘in
harmony’’ with a Department
determination and must suspend
liquidation of entries pending a
‘‘conclusive’’ court decision. The CIT’s
August 6, 2013, judgment sustaining the
PET Film Final Remand constitutes a
final decision of that court that is not in
harmony with the PET Film Final
Results. This notice is published in
fulfillment of the publication
requirements of Timken. Accordingly,
the Department will continue the
suspension of liquidation of the subject
merchandise pending the expiration of
the period of appeal or, if appealed,
pending a final and conclusive court
decision. The cash deposit rate will
remain the company-specific rate
established for the subsequent and most
recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the respondent
was included.
Amended Final Determination
Because there is now a final court
decision with respect to the PET Film
Final Results, the revised weightedaverage dumping margin is as follows:
Exporter
Weightedaverage
dumping
margin
(percent)
Tianjin Wanhua Co., Ltd. ......

This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 516A(e)(1),
751(a)(1), and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
