Background
Commerce is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on CORE from
India in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).1 The review covers
one producer/exporter of the subject
merchandise, JSW Steel Ltd. and JSW
Steel Coated Products Limited
(collectively, JSW). During the
investigation, Commerce found JSW to
be a single entity and, because there
were no changes to the facts that
supported that determination, we
continue to find that these companies
are a part of a single entity for this
administrative review.2 Interested
parties are invited to comment on these
preliminary results.
Commerce exercised its discretion to
toll all deadlines affected by the closure
of the Federal Government from January
20 through 22, 2018.3 On March 12,
2018, Commerce postponed the
preliminary results of this review until
August 3, 2018.4
Scope of the Order
The products covered by this order
are CORE from India. For a full
description of the scope, see the

Decision Memorandum is included at
the Appendix to this notice. The
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a
VerDate Sep<11>2014
public document and is made available
to the public via Enforcement and
Compliance’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at https://access.trade.gov, and it is
available to all parties in the Central
Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main
Department of Commerce building. In
addition, a complete version of the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is
available at https://enforcement.trade.
gov/frn/. The signed Preliminary
Decision Memorandum and the
electronic version of the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum are identical in
content.
We intend to disclose the calculations
performed to parties within five days
after public announcement of the
preliminary results. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.309(c), interested parties may
submit case briefs not later than 30 days
after the date of publication of this
notice. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues
raised in the case briefs, may be filed
not later than five days after the date for
filing case briefs. Parties who submit
case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this
proceeding are encouraged to submit
with each argument: (1) A statement of
the issue, (2) a brief summary of the
argument, and (3) a table of authorities.
Case and rebuttal briefs should be filed

briefs. Commerce intends to issue the
final results of this administrative
review, including the results of its
analysis of the issues raised in any
written briefs, not later than 120 days
after the date of publication of this
notice, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results,
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review. If JSW’s weighted-average
dumping margin is not zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent) in
the final results of this review, we will
calculate an importer-specific ad
valorem antidumping duty assessment
rate based on the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for the
importer’s examined sales to the total
entered value of those same sales in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review when the
importer-specific assessment rate
calculated in the final results of this
review is not zero or de minimis. If
JSW’s weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties. The final results of this review
shall be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise covered by this review
where applicable.
In accordance with Commerce’s
‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, for
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR produced by JSW for which it
did not know that the merchandise was
destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at
the all-others rate if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved
in the transaction. We intend to issue
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
publication date of the final results of
this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of final results
of administrative review for all
shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)

of this administrative review; (2) for
merchandise exported by producers or
exporters not covered in this
administrative review but covered in a
prior segment of the proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (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 of this
proceeding for the producer of the
subject merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 0.00
percent, the all-others rate established
in the investigation.6 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR.
Failure to comply with this requirement
could result in the Secretary’s
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping duties occurred and
increase the subsequent assessment of
the antidumping duties by the amount
of the antidumping duties
reimbursement.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. If JSW's
weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less
than 0.5 percent) in the final results of this review, we will
calculate an importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment
rate based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for
the importer's examined sales to the total entered value of those same
sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). We will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this
review when the importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the
final results of this review is not zero or de minimis. If JSW's
weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, we will instruct
CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping
duties. The final results of this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by
this review where applicable.
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by JSW for
which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United
States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-
others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies)
involved in the transaction. We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15
days after the publication date of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of final results of administrative review for
all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for JSW will be the
rate established in the final results
[[Page 39685]]
of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by
producers or exporters not covered in this administrative review but
covered in a prior segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate
will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most
recently completed segment of this proceeding; (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 of this
proceeding for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the
cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will
continue to be 0.00 percent, the all-others rate established in the
investigation.\6\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice 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 antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and increase the
subsequent assessment of the antidumping duties by the amount of the
antidumping duties reimbursement.
The preliminary results of review are issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and sections
19 CFR 351.213(h)(1) and 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: August 3, 2018.
James Maeder,
Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Operations performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
