initiation and preliminary results of a
changed circumstances review (‘‘CCR’’)
of the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’) order

Yihua Timber’s AD cash deposit rate

information or evidence on the record
calling into question our Preliminary
Results, the Department is making no
changes to the Preliminary Results. For
these final results, the Department
continues to find that Yihua Tech is the
successor-in-interest to Yihua Timber.
