Correction to the Amended Order
Amendment of the Order on OCTG
From India
The period to appeal the Court of
International Trade’s decision has
passed, and a final and conclusive court
decision has been reached in this case.
Therefore, the Department is amending
the antidumping duty order 8 on OCTG
from India to exclude from the order
subject merchandise produced and
exported by the GVN single entity
(comprised of GVN Fuels Limited,
Maharashtra Seamless Limited and
Jindal Pipes Limited) 9 because the
revised weighted-average dumping
margin for the GVN single entity is de
minimis. This exclusion does not apply
to merchandise produced by the GVN
single entity and exported by any other
company (outside the GVN single
entity) or merchandise produced by any
other company and exported by the
GVN single entity. Resellers of
merchandise produced by the GVN
single entity, are also not entitled to this
exclusion.

Continuation of Suspension of
Liquidation, In Part
In accordance with section
735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, the Department
has instructed CBP to continue to
suspend liquidation on all relevant
entries of OCTG from India.10 These
instructions suspending liquidation will
remain in effect until further notice.
However, because the estimated
weighted-average dumping margin for
merchandise produced and exported by
the GVN single entity is de minimis, the

The Department of Commerce
(the Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on chlorinated
isocyanurates (chlorinated isos) from
the People’s Republic of China (PRC).
The period of review (POR) is June 1,
2015, through May 31, 2016. This
administrative review covers three
producers/exporters: (1) Heze Huayi
Chemical Co. Ltd. (Heze Huayi); (2)
Hebei Jiheng Chemical Co. Ltd. (Jiheng);
and (3) Juancheng Kangtai Chemical Co.
Ltd. (Kangtai). We preliminarily
determine that Heze Huayi and Kangtai
have demonstrated their eligibility for a
separate rate, and have made sales in
the United States at prices below normal
value (NV). We also preliminarily
determine that Jiheng has not
demonstrated its eligibility for a
separate rate. Interested parties are
invited to comment on these
preliminary results.
DATES: July 28, 2017.

Methodology
The Department is conducting this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
Export and constructed export prices
have been calculated in accordance with
section 772 of the Act. Because the PRC
is a non-market economy within the
meaning of section 771(18) of the Act,
normal value has been calculated in
accordance with section 773(c) 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. A list of the
topics included in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is included as
an appendix to this notice.
The Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is a public document and
is on file electronically via Enforcement
and Compliance’s Antidumping and

Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at https://access.trade.gov, and it is

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on chlorinated
isocyanurates (chlorinated isos) from the People's Republic of China
(PRC). The period of review (POR) is June 1, 2015, through May 31,
2016. This administrative review covers three producers/exporters: (1)
Heze Huayi Chemical Co. Ltd. (Heze Huayi); (2) Hebei Jiheng Chemical
Co. Ltd. (Jiheng); and (3) Juancheng Kangtai Chemical Co. Ltd.
(Kangtai). We preliminarily determine that Heze Huayi and Kangtai have
demonstrated their eligibility for a separate rate, and have made sales
in the United States at prices below normal value (NV). We also
preliminarily determine that Jiheng has not demonstrated its
eligibility for a separate rate. Interested parties are invited to
comment on these preliminary results.
DATES: July 28, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are chlorinated isos, which are
derivatives of cyanuric acid, described as chlorinated s-triazine
triones.\1\ Chlorinated isos are currently classifiable under
subheadings 2933.69.6015, 2933.69.6021, 2933.69.6050, 3808.40.50,

Compliance, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Results of the
2015-2016 Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Chlorinated
Isocyanurates from the People's Republic of China,'' dated
concurrently with this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Methodology
The Department is conducting this administrative review in
accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). Export and constructed export prices have been
calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. Because the PRC
is a non-market economy within the meaning of section 771(18) of the
Act, normal value has been calculated in accordance with section 773(c)
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. A list of the topics included in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as an appendix to this
notice.
The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on
file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov,
and it is available to all parties in the Central Records Unit, room

complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is available at
https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed Preliminary Decision
Memorandum and the electronic version of the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum are identical in content.
Verification
As provided in sections 782(i)(3)(A)-(B) of the Act, we intend to
verify the information upon which we will rely in determining our final
results of review with respect to Kangtai.
Preliminary Results of Review
The Department preliminarily finds that Jiheng did not respond to
the Department's questionnaire even though it timely submitted a
separate rate certification. As such, we preliminarily determine that
Jiheng is part of the PRC-wide entity.\2\ For the companies' subject to
this review that have established their eligibility for a separate
rate, the Department preliminarily determines that the following
weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period of June 1, 2015,
through May 31, 2016:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Because no interested party requested a review of the PRC-
wide entity and the Department no longer considers the PRC-wide
entity as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative
reviews, we did not conduct a review of the PRC-wide entity. Thus,
the rate for the PRC-wide entity is not subject to change as a
result of this review. See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of
Change in Department Practice for Respondent Selection in
Antidumping Duty Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket
Economy Entity in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963,

The Department intends to issue the final results of this

and our analysis of all issues raised in the case briefs, within 120
days of publication of these preliminary results in the Federal
Register,unless extended, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuing the final results of this review, the Department shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this
review.\7\ The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to
CBP 15 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we are calculating
importer- (or customer-) specific assessment rates for the merchandise
subject to this review. For any individually examined respondent whose
weighted-average dumping margin is above de minimis (i.e., 0.50
percent), the Department will calculate importer-specific assessment
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer's examined sales and the total entered
value of sales.\8\ We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on
all appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer-
specific assessment rate is above de minimis. Where either the
respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or
an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the
[[Page 35185]]
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales database
submitted by an exporter individually examined during this review, the
Department will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the PRC-wide
rate. Additionally, if the Department determines that an exporter under
review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended
entries that entered under that exporter's case number will be
liquidated at the PRC-wide rate.\9\

of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for all
shipments of the subject merchandise from the PRC entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as
provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the exporters
listed above, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the
final results of this review (except, if the rate is zero or de
minimis, a zero cash deposit rate will be required for that company);
(2) for previously investigated or reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters
not listed above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing producer/exporter-specific combination rate
published for the most recent period; (3) for all PRC exporters of
subject merchandise that have not been found to be eligible for a
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the PRC-wide rate of
285.63 percent; \10\ and (4) for all non-PRC exporters of subject
merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to the PRC exporter(s) that supplied
that non-PRC exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

Fair Value: Chlorinated Isocyanurates From the People's Republic of
China, 70 FR 24502, 24505 (May 10, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a 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 Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing \11\ and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213 and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(4).
