SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(Commerce) is conducting an

Sfmt 4703
administrative review of the
antidumping duty (AD) order on
aluminum extrusions from the People’s
Republic of China (China). The period
of review (POR) is May 1, 2016, through
April 30, 2017. Mandatory respondents
were selected, but all requests for
administrative review for the mandatory
respondents were subsequently timely
withdrawn. Commerce preliminarily
determines that none of the 29
companies for which an administrative
review was requested, and not
withdrawn, demonstrated eligibility for
a separate rate, and are, therefore, all
part of the China-wide entity. For the
191 companies for which all requests for
administrative review have been timely
withdrawn, we rescind this
administrative review. Interested parties
are invited to comment on these
preliminary results.
DATES: Applicable February 8, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 6, 2017, Commerce published
the notice of initiation of the
administrative review of the AD order
on aluminum extrusions from China 1
for the period May 1, 2016, through
April 30, 2017, covering 220
companies.2 All requests for
administrative review were timely
withdrawn with regard to 191
companies (listed in Appendix II to this
notice), leaving 29 companies subject to
administrative review.3 For a complete
description of the events that followed

Aluminum Company Limited, because an
administrative review of these companies was also
requested by Regal, a request for an administrative
review remains in place for 29 companies.

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act). For a full description of the
methodology underlying our
preliminary results of review, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Rescission of Administrative Review, in
Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the party or parties that
requested a review withdraws the
request within 90 days of the
publication date of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. As
noted above, petitioner timely withdrew
its request for an administrative review
for certain companies. Therefore, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
we are rescinding this administrative
review with respect to 191 of the 220
companies named in the Initiation
Notice.8 See Appendix II for a list of
these companies.9
Separate Rates
In the Initiation Notice, we informed
parties of the opportunity to request a
separate rate.10 In proceedings involving
non-market economy (NME) countries,
Commerce begins with a rebuttable
presumption that all companies within
the NME country are subject to
government control and, thus, should be
assigned a single weighted-average
dumping margin. It is Commerce’s
policy to assign all exporters of
merchandise subject to an
administrative review involving an
NME country this single rate unless an
exporter can demonstrate that it is
sufficiently independent so as to be
entitled to a separate rate. Companies
that wanted to qualify for separate rate
status in this administrative review
were required to timely file, as
appropriate, a separate rate application
(SRA) or a separate rate certification
(SRC) to demonstrate their eligibility for
a separate rate. SRAs and SRCs were
due to Commerce within 30 calendar

days of the publication of the Initiation
Notice.11
Of the companies for which an
administrative review was requested,
and not withdrawn, none submitted an
SRA, SRC, or certification of no
shipments. Therefore, no company for
which a request for administrative
review remains in place has
demonstrated that it is entitled to a
separate rate. We, therefore,
preliminarily determine that the
following companies are not eligible for
a separate rate in this administrative
review: (1) Activa International Inc.; (2)
Atlas Integrated Manufacturing Ltd.; (3)
Belton (Asia) Development Ltd.; (4)

China-Wide Entity
We preliminarily find that the 29
companies listed above are part of the
China-wide entity in this administrative
review because they failed to submit an
SRA, SRC, or certification of no
shipments.
Commerce’s policy regarding
conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative
review.13 Under this policy, the China11 Id.

wide entity will not be under review
unless a party specifically requests, or
Commerce self-initiates, a review of the
entity. Because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity in the
instant review, the entity is not under
review, and the entity’s current rate, i.e.,
86.01 percent,14 is not subject to change.
Adjustments for Countervailable
Subsidies
Because no company established
eligibility for an adjustment under
section 777A(f) of the Act for
countervailable domestic subsidies, for
these preliminary results, Commerce
did not make an adjustment pursuant to
section 777A(f) of the Act for
countervailable domestic subsidies for
separate-rate recipients. Furthermore,
because the China-wide entity is not
under review, we made no adjustment
for countervailable export subsidies for
the China-wide entity pursuant to
section 772(c)(1)(C) of the Act.
Disclosure and Public Comment
Normally, Commerce discloses to
interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the
preliminary results within five days of
the public announcement or, if there is
no public announcement, within five
days of the date of publication of this
notice in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b). However, because
Commerce did not calculate weightedaverage dumping margins for any
companies in this review, nor for the
China-wide entity, there is nothing
further to disclose. This meets our
regulatory obligation.
Interested parties may submit case
briefs no later than 30 days after the
date of publication of this notice.15
Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised
in the case briefs, may be filed no later
than five days after the case briefs are
filed.16 Parties who submit case or
rebuttal briefs in this review are
requested to submit with each argument
(a) a statement of the issue, (b) a brief
summary of the argument, and (c) a
table of authorities.17
Any interested party may request a

Documents excepted from the electronic
submission requirements must be filed
manually (i.e., in paper form) with the
APO/Dockets Unit in Room 18022 and

receipt by 5 p.m. ET on the due date.21
Unless otherwise extended,
Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review,
which will include the results of our
analysis of all issues raised in any briefs
received, within 120 days of publication
of these preliminary results in the
Federal Register, pursuant to section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results of
this review, Commerce will determine,
and CBP shall assess, AD duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.22 Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days
after publication of the final results of
this review.
We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
entries containing subject merchandise
exported by the China-wide entity at the
China-wide rate. Additionally, if
Commerce 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 China-wide rate.23
For the companies for which this
review is rescinded, AD duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated AD duties required

warehouse, for consumption, in

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements for estimated AD duties,
when imposed, will apply to all
shipments of subject merchandise from
China entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) If
the companies preliminarily determined
to be eligible for a separate rate receive
a separate rate in the final results of this
administrative review, their cash
deposit rate will be equal to the
weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of this
review, as adjusted for domestic and
export subsidies (except, if that rate is
de minimis, then the cash deposit rate
will be zero); (2) for any previously
investigated or reviewed Chinese and
non-Chinese exporters that are not
under review in this segment of the
proceeding but that received a separate
rate in the most recently completed
segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
exporter-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) for all Chinese exporters
of subject merchandise that have not
been found to be entitled to a separate
rate, the cash deposit rate will be that
for the China-wide entity; (4) for the
China-wide entity, the cash deposit rate
will be 86.01 percent; and (5) for all
non-Chinese exporters of subject
merchandise which have not received
their own rate, the cash deposit rate will
be the rate applicable to the Chinese
exporter that supplied that non-Chinese
exporter.
These cash 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)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of AD
duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this review
period. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce’s
presumption that reimbursement of AD
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double AD duties.

Aluminum Extrusions From the People's Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and
Rescission of Review in Part; 2016-2017
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an
administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on aluminum
extrusions from the People's Republic of China (China). The period of
review (POR) is May 1, 2016, through April 30, 2017. Mandatory
respondents were selected, but all requests for administrative review
for the mandatory respondents were subsequently timely withdrawn.
Commerce preliminarily determines that none of the 29 companies for
which an administrative review was requested, and not withdrawn,
demonstrated eligibility for a separate rate, and are, therefore, all
part of the China-wide entity. For the 191 companies for which all
requests for administrative review have been timely withdrawn, we
rescind this administrative review. Interested parties are invited to
comment on these preliminary results.
DATES: Applicable February 8, 2018.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For a
full description of the methodology underlying our preliminary results
of review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party or parties
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review.
As noted above, petitioner timely withdrew its request for an
administrative review for certain companies. Therefore, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this administrative review
with respect to 191 of the 220 companies named in the Initiation
Notice.\8\ See Appendix II for a list of these companies.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Initiation Notice, 82 FR at 31294-31297.
\9\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum for further details.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Rates
In the Initiation Notice, we informed parties of the opportunity to
request a separate rate.\10\ In proceedings involving non-market
economy (NME) countries, Commerce begins with a rebuttable presumption
that all companies within the NME country are subject to government
control and, thus, should be assigned a single weighted-average dumping
margin. It is Commerce's policy to assign all exporters of merchandise
subject to an administrative review involving an NME country this
single rate unless an exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently
independent so as to be entitled to a separate rate. Companies that
wanted to qualify for separate rate status in this administrative
review were required to timely file, as appropriate, a separate rate
application (SRA) or a separate rate certification (SRC) to demonstrate
their eligibility for a separate rate. SRAs and SRCs were due to
Commerce within 30 calendar
[[Page 5606]]
days of the publication of the Initiation Notice.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See Initiation Notice, 82 FR at 31293.
\11\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of the companies for which an administrative review was requested,
and not withdrawn, none submitted an SRA, SRC, or certification of no
shipments. Therefore, no company for which a request for administrative
review remains in place has demonstrated that it is entitled to a
separate rate. We, therefore, preliminarily determine that the
following companies are not eligible for a separate rate in this
administrative review: (1) Activa International Inc.; (2) Atlas
Integrated Manufacturing Ltd.; (3) Belton (Asia) Development Ltd.; (4)
Belton (Asia) Development Limited; (5) Changzhou Tenglong Auto Parts
Co., Ltd.; (6) Changzhou Tenglong Auto Accessories Manufacturing Co.
Ltd.; (7) Changzhou Tenglong Auto Parts Co Ltd; (8) China Square; (9)
China Square Industrial Co.; (10) China Square Industrial Ltd; (11)
Daya Hardware Co Ltd; (12) ETLA Technology (Wuxi) Co. Ltd; (13) Global
Hi-Tek Precision Co. Ltd; (14) Guangdong Whirlpool Electrical
Appliances Co., Ltd.; (15) Guangdong Xin Wei Aluminum Products Co.,
Ltd.; (16) Guangdong Zhongya Aluminium Company Limited; (17) Henan New
Kelong Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd.; (18) Liaoning Zhongwang Group
Co., Ltd.; (19) Liaoyang Zhongwang Aluminum Profile Co. Ltd.; (20)
Midea International Training Co., Ltd.; (21) Midea International
Trading Co., Ltd.; (22) Shenyang Yuanda Aluminum Industry Engineering
Co. Ltd.; (23) Sincere Profit Limited; (24) Summit Heat Sinks Metal Co,
Ltd; (25) USA Worldwide Door Components (PINGHU) Co., Ltd.; (26)
Whirlpool Canada L.P.; (27) Whirlpool Microwave Products Development
Ltd.; (28) Xin Wei Aluminum Co. Ltd.; and (29) Xin Wei Aluminum Company
Limited.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at 9-11.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
China-Wide Entity
We preliminarily find that the 29 companies listed above are part
of the China-wide entity in this administrative review because they
failed to submit an SRA, SRC, or certification of no shipments.
Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative review.\13\ Under this policy,
the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party
specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the
entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity in
the instant review, the entity is not under review, and the entity's
current rate, i.e., 86.01 percent,\14\ is not subject to change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ 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, 65970 (November 4,
2013).
\14\ See Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic of
China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review;
2015-2016, 82 FR 52265, 52267 (November 13, 2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjustments for Countervailable Subsidies
Because no company established eligibility for an adjustment under
section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies, for
these preliminary results, Commerce did not make an adjustment pursuant
to section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies
for separate-rate recipients. Furthermore, because the China-wide
entity is not under review, we made no adjustment for countervailable
export subsidies for the China-wide entity pursuant to section
772(c)(1)(C) of the Act.
Disclosure and Public Comment
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the preliminary results within five days
of the public announcement or, if there is no public announcement,
within five days of the date of publication of this notice in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce did not
calculate weighted-average dumping margins for any companies in this
review, nor for the China-wide entity, there is nothing further to
disclose. This meets our regulatory obligation.
Interested parties may submit case briefs no later than 30 days
after the date of publication of this notice.\15\ Rebuttal briefs,
limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed no later than
five days after the case briefs are filed.\16\ Parties who submit case
or rebuttal briefs in this review are requested to submit with each
argument (a) a statement of the issue, (b) a brief summary of the
argument, and (c) a table of authorities.\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii).
\16\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d).
\17\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any interested party may request a hearing within 30 days of
publication of this notice.\18\ Hearing requests should contain the
following information: (1) The party's name, address, and telephone
number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of the issues to
be discussed. Oral presentations at the hearing will be limited to
issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs. If a request for a
hearing is made, parties will be notified of the time and date for the
hearing to be held at the U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401
Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\18\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
\19\ See 19 CFR 351.310(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
All submissions, with limited exceptions, must be filed
electronically using ACCESS.\20\ An electronically filed document must
be received successfully in its entirety by Commerce's electronic
records system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) on the due date.
Documents excepted from the electronic submission requirements must be
filed manually (i.e., in paper form) with the APO/Dockets Unit in Room
18022 and stamped with the date and time of receipt by 5 p.m. ET on the
due date.\21\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\20\ See generally 19 CFR 351.303.
\21\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Electronic Filing Procedures; Administrative Protective Order
Procedures, 76 FR 39263 (July 6, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, which will include the results
of our analysis of all issues raised in any briefs received, within 120
days of publication of these preliminary results in the Federal
Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results of this review, Commerce will
determine, and CBP shall assess, AD duties on all appropriate entries
covered by this review.\22\ Commerce intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of the final results of
this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\22\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries containing subject
merchandise exported by the China-wide entity at the China-wide rate.
Additionally, if Commerce 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
China-wide rate.\23\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\23\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies for which this review is rescinded, AD duties
shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated AD
duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in
[[Page 5607]]
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP for those companies 15 days after
publication of this notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements for estimated AD duties,
when imposed, will apply to all shipments of subject merchandise from
China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication of the final results of this administrative review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) If the companies
preliminarily determined to be eligible for a separate rate receive a
separate rate in the final results of this administrative review, their
cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of this review, as adjusted for
domestic and export subsidies (except, if that rate is de minimis, then
the cash deposit rate will be zero); (2) for any previously
investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that are not
under review in this segment of the proceeding but that received a
separate rate in the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-
specific rate published for the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that
have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit
rate will be that for the China-wide entity; (4) for the China-wide
entity, the cash deposit rate will be 86.01 percent; and (5) for all
non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not received
their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to
the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese exporter.
These cash 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)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of AD duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of AD duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double AD
duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing notice of these preliminary results
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: January 26, 2018.
