SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 16, 2018, Commerce
published the notice of initiation of the
CCRs requested by DAK Americas, LLC;
Nan Ya Plastics Corporation, America;
Auriga Polymers; and Palmetto
Synthetics LLC (i.e., the domestic
producers) pursuant to section 751(b)(1)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.216(b). The
domestic producers requested the
revocation of the orders with respect to
any low-melt PSF that may be covered
by the Orders 1 to avoid any potential
overlap in coverage between the Orders
and the AD orders that may result from
the pending less-than-fair-value
investigations of low-melt polyester
staple fiber from Korea and Taiwan.2
On April 19, 2018, Commerce
published the preliminary results of
these CCRs, in which it found that
producers accounting for substantially
all of the production of the domestic
like product to which the Orders pertain
lack interest in the relief afforded by the
Orders with respect to certain low-melt
PSF.3 Commerce invited interested

parties to submit comments on the
preliminary results. We received no
comments.
Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Reviews, and
Revocation of the Orders, in Part
Because no party submitted
comments opposing Commerce’s
preliminary results, and the record
contains no other information or
evidence that calls into question the
preliminary results, Commerce
determines, pursuant to section
751(d)(1) of the Act, section 782(h) of
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.222(g), that
there are changed circumstances that
warrant revocation of the Orders, in
part. Specifically, because the producers
accounting for substantially all of the
production of the domestic like product
to which the Orders pertain lack interest
in the relief provided by the Orders with
respect to the following type of PSF, we
are revoking the Orders, in part, by
replacing the following language
currently in the scope of the Orders:
‘‘{i}n addition, low-melt PSF is
excluded from these orders. Low-melt
PSF is defined as a bi-component fiber
with an outer sheath that melts at a
significantly lower temperature than its
inner core,’’ with the following
language: ‘‘{i}n addition, low-melt PSF
is excluded from these orders. Low-melt
PSF is defined as a bi-component
polyester fiber having a polyester fiber
component that melts at a lower
temperature than the other polyester
fiber component.’’ The scope
description below includes this
replacement language.
Scope of the Orders
The product covered by the Orders is
certain polyester staple fiber (PSF). PSF
is defined as synthetic staple fibers, not
carded, combed or otherwise processed
for spinning, of polyesters measuring
3.3 decitex (3 denier, inclusive) or more
in diameter. This merchandise is cut to
lengths varying from one inch (25 mm)
to five inches (127 mm). The
