setting forth the deadline (including a
specified time) by which extension
requests must be filed to be considered
timely. This modification also requires
that an extension request must be made

limits. These modifications are effective
for all segments initiated on or after
October 21, 2013. Please review the

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only
reminder to importers whose entries

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 the
presumption that reimbursement of the
AD duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled AD duties.
•
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under an APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
5 See Appendix. As stated in Change in Practice
in NME Reviews, Commerce will no longer consider
the non-market economy (NME) entity as an
exporter conditionally subject to administrative
reviews. See Antidumping Proceedings:
Announcement of Change in Department Practice

Proceedings and Conditional Review of the
Nonmarket Economy Entity in NME Antidumping
Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963 (November 4, 2013)
(Change in Practice in NME Reviews). The Chinawide entity is not subject to this administrative
review because no interested party requested a
review of the entity. See Initiation Notice.

review of the antidumping duty order 1
on aluminum extrusions from China
pursuant to section 751(b) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and
19 CFR 351.216 and 351.221(c)(3).2 In
the Initiation and Preliminary Results,
interested parties were provided an
opportunity to comment and request a
hearing regarding our preliminary
finding that the cash deposit rate for the
21 exporters/producers who retain the
separate rate assigned in the LTFV
investigation should be recalculated to
reflect the revised CVD export subsidy
offsets from the amended final CVD
determination.3 We received no
comments from interested parties and
no request for a hearing.4

subject merchandise is made from an

commencing with the number 6
contains magnesium and silicon as the
major alloying elements, with
magnesium accounting for at least 0.1
percent but not more than 2.0 percent of
total materials by weight, and silicon
accounting for at least 0.1 percent but
not more than 3.0 percent of total
materials by weight. The subject
aluminum extrusions are properly
identified by a four-digit alloy series
without either a decimal point or
leading letter. Illustrative examples from
among the approximately 160 registered
alloys that may characterize the subject
merchandise are as follows: 1350, 3003,
and 6060.
Aluminum extrusions are produced
and imported in a wide variety of
shapes and forms, including, but not
limited to, hollow profiles, other solid
profiles, pipes, tubes, bars, and rods.
Aluminum extrusions that are drawn
subsequent to extrusion (drawn
aluminum) are also included in the
scope.
Aluminum extrusions are produced
and imported with a variety of finishes
(both coatings and surface treatments),
and types of fabrication. The types of
coatings and treatments applied to
subject aluminum extrusions include,
but are not limited to, extrusions that
are mill finished (i.e., without any
coating or further finishing), brushed,
buffed, polished, anodized (including
brightdip anodized), liquid painted, or
powder coated. Aluminum extrusions
may also be fabricated, i.e., prepared for
assembly. Such operations would
include, but are not limited to,
extrusions that are cut-to-length,
machined, drilled, punched, notched,
bent, stretched, knurled, swedged,
mitered, chamfered, threaded, and spun.
The subject merchandise includes
aluminum extrusions that are finished
(coated, painted, etc.), fabricated, or any
combination thereof.
Subject aluminum extrusions may be
described at the time of importation as
parts for final finished products that are
assembled after importation, including,
but not limited to, window frames, door
frames, solar panels, curtain walls, or
furniture. Such parts that otherwise
meet the definition of aluminum
extrusions are included in the scope.
The scope includes the aluminum
extrusion components that are attached
(e.g., by welding or fasteners) to form
subassemblies, i.e., partially assembled
merchandise unless imported as part of
the finished goods ‘kit’ defined further

Rescission of Review, in Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that
requested the review withdraw their requests within 90 days of the date
of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. All
requesting parties withdrew their respective requests for an
administrative review of the 60 companies or groups of companies listed
in the Appendix to this notice within 90 days of the date of
publication of the Initiation Notice. Accordingly, Commerce is
rescinding this review with respect to these companies, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).\5\ The administrative review will continue
with respect to all other firms for which a review was requested and
initiated.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Appendix. As stated in Change in Practice in NME
Reviews, Commerce will no longer consider the non-market economy
(NME) entity as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative
reviews. 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 (November 4, 2013)
(Change in Practice in NME Reviews). The China-wide entity is not
subject to this administrative review because no interested party
requested a review of the entity. See Initiation Notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all subject merchandise exported by the
companies listed in the Appendix to this notice that was entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period of review.
The entries shall be assessed AD duties that are equal to the cash
deposit of estimated AD duties required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only reminder to importers whose entries
will be liquidated as a result of this rescission notice, 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 the presumption that reimbursement of the
AD duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled AD duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
an APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to
govern business proprietary information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of
APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO
is a sanctionable violation.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
