SUMMARY: Based on affirmative final determinations by the Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the International Trade Commission (ITC), Commerce is issuing an antidumping duty order on certain hardwood plywood products (hardwood plywood) from the People’s Republic of China (China). We are also amending our Final Determination to correct ministerial errors with respect to the identification of companies receiving a separate rate. DATES: Applicable January 4, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amanda Brings or Ryan Mullen, AD/ CVD Operations, Office V, Enforcement AGENCY: Background On November 16, 2017, Commerce published in the Federal Register the Final Determination that hardwood plywood from China is being, or is likely to be, sold in the United States at less than fair value (LTFV), as provided in section 735 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).1 From November 16, 2017, to November 27, 2017, Cosco Star International Co., Ltd. and Highland Industries Inc. (Cosco and Highland), Linyi Chengen Import and Export Co., Ltd. (Chengen), and the Coalition for Fair Trade in Hardwood Plywood and its individual members (collectively, the petitioners) submitted ministerial error allegations and rebuttal comments concerning the Final Determination.2 On December 8, 2017, Commerce issued its findings related to the ministerial error allegations.3 On December 20, 2017, the ITC notified Commerce of its final affirmative determination that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by reason of the LTFV imports of hardwood plywood from China.4 The ITC also notified Commerce of its determination that critical circumstances do not exist with respect to imports of hardwood plywood from China subject to Commerce’s final affirmative critical circumstances finding. Scope of the Order For a complete description of the scope of the order, see the Appendix to this notice. Amendment to Final Determination Consistent with Commerce’s December 8, 2017, findings regarding the interested parties’ ministerial error allegations, and pursuant to section 735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e) and (f), Commerce is amending the Final Determination to reflect the correction of ministerial errors it made in spelling the name of Cosco’s producer, Feixian Xingying Wood Co., Ltd (Feixian), and Highland’s producer, Weifang Hanlin Timber Products Co., Ltd. (Weifang), on the exporter/producer list for separate rate recipients.5 As a result of this amended final determination, we have corrected the spelling of Feixian and Weifang on the exporter/producer list as follows: Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) Exporter Producer Highland Industries Inc ................................................. Cosco Star International Co., Ltd ................................. Weifang Hanlin Timber Products Co., Ltd ................... Feixian Xingying Wood Co., Ltd ................................... 183.36 183.36 Cash deposit rate (percent) 171.55 171.55 In accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination in this investigation, in which it found that an industry in the United States is materially injured, within the meaning of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by reason of imports of hardwood plywood from China. The ITC also notified Commerce of its determination that critical circumstances do not exist with respect to imports of hardwood plywood from China subject to Commerce’s final affirmative critical circumstances finding. Therefore, in accordance with section 735(c)(2) of the Act, we are publishing this antidumping duty order. Because the ITC determined that imports of hardwood plywood from China are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from China entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. 1 See Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China: Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, and Final Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, in Part, 82 FR 53460 (November 16, 2017) (Final Determination). 2 See Cosco and Highland’s Letter, ‘‘Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China: Ministerial Error Comments on Final Determination,’’ dated November 16, 2017 (Cosco and Highland Ministerial Error Comments); Chengen’s Letter, ‘‘Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China: Allegation of Ministerial Errors in Final Determination,’’ dated November 20, 2017 (Chengen Ministerial Error Comments); and Petitioners’ Letter, ‘‘Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China: Response to Ministerial Error Submission,’’ dated November 27, 2017 (Petitioners’ Rebuttal Ministerial Error Comments). 3 See Memorandum, ‘‘Antidumping Duty Investigation of Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China: Allegations of Ministerial Errors in the Final Determination,’’ dated December 8, 2017 (Ministerial Error Memorandum). 4 See Letter to Gary Taverman, Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Enforcement and Compliance, from Rhonda K.
