In this case, suspension of liquidation began on June 29, 2015.5 Therefore, the period of review (POR) for which we are measuring countervailable subsidies is from June 29, 2015 through December 31, 2016. Because it is Commerce’s practice to calculate subsidy rates on an annual basis, we calculated a 2015 rate and a 2016 rate. The rate calculated for 2015 will be applicable only to entries, or withdrawals from warehouse, for consumption made on and after June 29, 2015 through the end of 2015. Scope of the Order The products covered by the order are certain uncoated paper from Indonesia. A full description of the scope of the order is contained in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, which is hereby adopted by this notice.6 Methodology Commerce is conducting this countervailing duty (CVD) review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For each of the subsidy programs found countervailable, Commerce preliminarily determines that there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial contribution by an ‘‘authority’’ that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that the subsidy is specific.7 For a full description of the methodology underlying our preliminary conclusions, 3 See Memorandum, ‘‘Deadlines Affected by the Shutdown of the Federal Government,’’ dated January 23, 2018.

Disclosure and Public Comment

    We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these 
preliminary results to the parties within five days after public 
announcement of the preliminary results in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.224(b). Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), interested parties may

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to 
request a hearing, must submit a written request to the Assistant 
Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, filed electronically via 
ACCESS. An electronically filed document must be received successfully

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rate

    If a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is above de 
minimis in the final results of this review, we will calculate an 
importer-specific assessment rate based on the ratio of the total 
amount of dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the 
total entered value of the sales in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1).\7\ If a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin or 
an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis in the final 
results of review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to 
antidumping duties in accordance with the Final Modification for 
Reviews.\8\ The final results of this administrative review shall be 
the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of 
merchandise under review and for future deposits of estimated duties, 
where applicable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ In these preliminary results, Commerce applied the 
assessment rate calculation method adopted in Antidumping 
Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and 
Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping Duty Proceedings; Final 
Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 2012) (Final Modification for 
Reviews).
    \8\ See Final Modification for Reviews, 77 FR 8103. See also 19 
CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For entries of subject merchandise during the period of review 
produced by Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. for which they did not know 
their merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct 
CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is 
no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
    We intend to issue liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days after 
publication of the final results of this review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements for estimated antidumping 
duties will be effective upon publication of the notice of final 
results of this review for all shipments of uncoated paper from Brazil 
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the 
date of publication as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) 
The cash deposit rate for companies subject to this review will be 
equal to the weighted-average dumping margins established in the final 
results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by companies not 
covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of this 
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate

[[Page 15370]]

published for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm 
covered in this review, a prior review, or the original investigation 
but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established 
for the most recently completed segment for the producer of the 
merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or 
exporters will continue to be 27.11 percent, the all-others rate 
established in the less-than-fair-value investigation.\9\
