Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act). For purposes of this review
Commerce preliminarily finds that all
programs previously countervailed in
prior segments of this proceeding,
remain countervailable—that is, they
provide a financial contribution within
the meaning of sections 771(5)(B)(i) and
(D) of the Act, confer a benefit within
the meaning of section 771(5)(B) of the
Act, and are specific within the meaning
of 771(5A) of the Act.
For a full description of the
methodology underlying our
preliminary conclusions, including our
reliance on adverse facts available
pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of
the Act, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum. As explained in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum,
Commerce relied on adverse facts
available because the Government of
China and both of the mandatory
respondents did not act to the best of
their ability in responding to
Commerce’s requests for information,
and consequently, has drawn an adverse
inference, where appropriate, in
selecting from among the facts
otherwise available.9 For further
information, see ‘‘Use of Facts
Otherwise Available and Adverse
Inferences’’ in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Rescission of Review, in Part
For those companies named in the
Initiation Notice for which all review
requests have been timely withdrawn,
we are rescinding this administrative
review in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1). These 214 companies are
listed at Appendix II to this notice.
8 See Preliminary Decision Memorandum for a
complete description of the scope of the order.

Intent To Rescind Administrative
Review, in Part
As explained above, on July 20, 2017,
Commerce received timely no-shipment
certifications from Guangdong Xin Wei
Aluminum Products Co., Ltd., Xin Wei
Aluminum Company Limited, and Xin
Wei Aluminum Co. Ltd. Because there
is no evidence on the record to indicate
that these companies had entries of
subject merchandise during the POR,10
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), we
preliminarily intend to rescind the
review with respect to Guangdong Xin
Wei Aluminum Products Co., Ltd., Xin
Wei Aluminum Company Limited, and
Xin Wei Aluminum Co. Ltd.11 A final
decision regarding whether to rescind
the review of this company will be
issued with the final results of review.
Preliminary Results
Commerce preliminarily determines
that the following estimated
countervailable subsidy rates exist: 12

Liaoning Zhongwang Group
Co., Ltd .............................
Liaoyang Zhongwang Aluminum Profile Co., Ltd ......
Ad valorem
rate
(percent)
198.61

Assessment Rates
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(b)(4)(i), we preliminarily
assigned subsidy rates in the amounts
shown above for the producer/exporters
shown above. Upon completion of the
administrative review, consistent with
section 751(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(2), Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
countervailing duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review. We
intend to issue assessment instructions
to CBP 15 days after publication of the
final results of this review.
For the 214 companies for which this
review is rescinded, Commerce will
instruct CBP to assess countervailing
duties on all appropriate entries at a rate
equal to the cash deposit of estimated
countervailing duties required at the
time of entry, or withdrawal from
warehouse, for consumption, during the
period January 1, 2016, through
10 See, e.g., Memorandum, ‘‘2016 Administrative
Review of the Countervailing Duty Order on
Aluminum Extrusions from the People’s Republic
of China: Electronic U.S. Customs and Border

December 31, 2016, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). Commerce
intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days
after publication of this notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act, Commerce also intends upon
publication of the final results to
instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of
estimated countervailing duties in the
amounts indicated above for each
company listed on shipments of subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review. For
all non-reviewed firms, we intend to
instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of
estimated countervailing duties at the
most recent company-specific or allothers rate applicable to the company,
as appropriate. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to
interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the
preliminary results of review within five
days of its 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 preliminarily
applied adverse facts available to
Liaoning and Liaoyang, pursuant to
section 776 of the Act, there are no
calculations to disclose.

Applications Received
Permit 1606–2R
Zach Larson and Associates is seeking
to renew for five years a research permit
that currently allows them to take
juvenile SONCC coho in the Smith
River, Morrison Creek, Ranch Bar,
Saxton Bar Alcove, and Yontocket
Slough in Northern California. The
research may also cause them to take
adult eulachon—a species for which
there are currently no ESA take
prohibitions. The study’s purpose is to
establish baseline data for the
comparability between pre-treatment
and post-treatment project sites.
Documenting salmonid and nonsalmonid species presence and their
habitat use in privately owned portions
of the Smith River is also needed to
identify further habitat enhancement
opportunities in the Smith River. This
research would benefit the affected
species by informing future restoration
designs, providing data to support
future enhancement projects, and
helping managers assess the status of

salmonid populations in the sloughs
and alcoves in the Smith River estuary.
The researchers propose to capture fish
using beach seines. Captured fish would
be captured, handled, and released. The
researchers do not intend to kill any
listed fish, but some may die as an
inadvertent result of the research.
15573–3R
The Glenn-Colusa Irrigation District
(GCID) is seeking to renew for five years
a research permit that currently allows
them to take juvenile CVSR chinook,
SRWR chinook, CCV steelhead and
juvenile green sturgeon in the
Sacramento River, California. The
study’s purpose is to monitor restoration
actions and to detect annular and cyclic
population changes. The GCID project
provides the longest and most complete
anadromous fish data set on Sacramento
River. As a result, the research would
benefit the affected species by informing
operational decisions for state and
Federal water facilities and
supplementing other out-migrant
monitoring projects conducted in the
Sacramento River Basin. The
researchers propose to use a rotary
screw trap to capture the targeted fish.
They would then be anesthetized,
identified to species, measured, have a
tissue sample taken for genetic analysis
(fin clip and scales), and allowed to
recover in cool, aerated water before
being released back to the stream. The
researchers do not intend to kill any
listed fish, but some may die as an
inadvertent result of the research.
15730–2R
The Salmon Protection and
Watershed Network (SPAWN) is seeking
to renew for five years a research permit
that currently allows them to take
spawned adult carcasses and juvenile
CCC coho, CC chinook and CCC
steelhead in Lagunitas Creek and
tributaries, California. The study’s
purpose is to provide baseline data on
habitat and juvenile and adult salmon
abundance throughout the species’
range for CCCCoho. The research would
benefit the affected species by providing
data to inform future research,
restoration, and conservation efforts.
The researchers propose to use fyke nets
to capture juvenile fish and observe
adult fish during spawning surveys.
Captured fish would be anesthetized,
identified to species, measured, PIT
tagged, have a tissue sample taken for
genetic analysis (fin clip and scales),
and allowed to recover in cool, aerated
water before being released back to the
stream. The researchers do not intend to
kill any listed fish, but some may die as
an inadvertent result of the research.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum for a complete
description of the scope of the order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For
purposes of this review Commerce preliminarily finds that all programs
previously countervailed in prior segments of this proceeding, remain
countervailable--that is, they provide a financial contribution within
the meaning of sections 771(5)(B)(i) and (D) of the Act, confer a
benefit within the meaning of section 771(5)(B) of the Act, and are
specific within the meaning of 771(5A) of the Act.
For a full description of the methodology underlying our
preliminary conclusions, including our reliance on adverse facts
available pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum. As explained in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum, Commerce relied on adverse facts available because
the Government of China and both of the mandatory respondents did not
act to the best of their ability in responding to Commerce's requests
for information, and consequently, has drawn an adverse inference,
where appropriate, in selecting from among the facts otherwise
available.\9\ For further information, see ``Use of Facts Otherwise
Available and Adverse Inferences'' in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rescission of Review, in Part
For those companies named in the Initiation Notice for which all
review requests have been timely withdrawn, we are rescinding this
administrative review in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). These
214 companies are listed at Appendix II to this notice.
Intent To Rescind Administrative Review, in Part
As explained above, on July 20, 2017, Commerce received timely no-
shipment certifications from Guangdong Xin Wei Aluminum Products Co.,
Ltd., Xin Wei Aluminum Company Limited, and Xin Wei Aluminum Co. Ltd.
Because there is no evidence on the record to indicate that these
companies had entries of subject merchandise during the POR,\10\
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), we preliminarily intend to rescind
the review with respect to Guangdong Xin Wei Aluminum Products Co.,
Ltd., Xin Wei Aluminum Company Limited, and Xin Wei Aluminum Co.
Ltd.\11\ A final decision regarding whether to rescind the review of
this company will be issued with the final results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See, e.g., Memorandum, ``2016 Administrative Review of the
Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum Extrusions from the People's
Republic of China: Electronic U.S. Customs and Border Protection
Data,'' dated July 7, 2017, and accompanying Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet.
\11\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preliminary Results
Commerce preliminarily determines that the following estimated
countervailable subsidy rates exist: \12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ Id., at ``Use of Adverse Facts Available'' and ``Ad Valorem
Rate for Non-Cooperative Companies Under Review.''
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ad valorem
Company rate (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liaoning Zhongwang Group Co., Ltd....................... 198.61
Liaoyang Zhongwang Aluminum Profile Co., Ltd............ 198.61
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4)(i), we preliminarily
assigned subsidy rates in the amounts shown above for the producer/
exporters shown above. Upon completion of the administrative review,
consistent with section 751(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2),
Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, countervailing duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review. We intend to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15
days after publication of the final results of this review.
For the 214 companies for which this review is rescinded, Commerce
will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate
entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated countervailing
duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, during the period January 1, 2016, through
[[Page 11503]]
December 31, 2016, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). Commerce
intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15
days after publication of this notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce also intends
upon publication of the final results to instruct CBP to collect cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts indicated
above for each company listed on shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication of the final results of this administrative review.
For all non-reviewed firms, we intend to instruct CBP to collect cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the most recent company-
specific or all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate.
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the preliminary results of review within
five days of its 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
preliminarily applied adverse facts available to Liaoning and Liaoyang,
pursuant to section 776 of the Act, there are no calculations to
disclose.
Public Comment
Interested parties may submit written case briefs no later than 30
days after the date of publication of the preliminary determination.
Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in case briefs, may be
submitted no later than five days after the deadline date for case

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal
briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for

Commerce intends to hold the hearing at the U.S. Department of
Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230, at a time
and date to be determined. Parties should confirm by telephone the
date, time, and location of the hearing two days before the scheduled
date. Issues addressed at the hearing will be limited to those raised
in the briefs.\15\ All case and rebuttal briefs and hearing requests
must be filed electronically and received successfully in their
entirety through ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless the deadline is extended pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act, we intend to issue the final results of this administrative
review, including the results of our analysis of the issues raised by
the parties in their comments, within 120 days after issuance of these
preliminary results.
Notification to Interested Parties
