Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section

accordance with section 773(c) of the Act.
    For a full description of the methodology underlying our 
conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically

record by the sole respondent, Zhongwei, indicates that it is eligible 
to receive a separate rate and has made sales in the United States

Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Commerce preliminarily determines that 
the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period 
September 1, 2016, through August 31, 2017:

    \12\ See 19 CFR 351.310(d).

    Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative 
review, which will include the results of our analysis of all issues 
raised in the case briefs, within 120 days of publication of these 
preliminary results in the Federal Register, pursuant to section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.\13\ Commerce 
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the 
publication date of the final results of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For Zhongwei, Commerce will calculate importer-specific assessment 
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of dumping 
calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total entered value 
of sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). For customers or 
importers of Zhongwei for which we do not have entered values, we 
calculated importer- (or customer-) specific antidumping duty 
assessment amounts based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping 
duties calculated for the examined sales of subject merchandise to the 
total sales quantity of those same sales.\14\ For customers or 
importers of Zhongwei for which we received entered-value information, 
we have calculated importer- (or customer-) specific antidumping duty 
assessment rates based on importer- (or customer-) specific ad valorem 
rates.\15\ Where an importer-or (customer-) specific ad valorem rate is 
greater than de minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to collect the 
appropriate duties at the time of liquidation.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
    \15\ Id.
    \16\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales database 
submitted by an exporter individually examined during this review, 
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the China-wide 
rate. Additionally, if Commerce determines that an exporter under 
review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended 
entries that entered under that exporter's case number will be 
liquidated at the China-wide rate.\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this review for shipments of the 
subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by 
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the companies listed above 
that have a separate rate (i.e. , Zhongwei), the cash deposit rate will 
be that established in the final results of this review (except, if the 
rate is zero or de minimis, then a cash deposit of zero will be 
required); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed China and non-
China exporters not listed above that received a separate rate in a 
prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue 
to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for all China exporters 
of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a 
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be that for the China-wide 
entity (i.e., 105.31 percent); \18\ and (4) for all non-China exporters 
of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash 
deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the China exporter that 
supplied that non-China exporter. These deposit requirements, when 
imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also 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 and/or countervailing duties 
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to 
comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption 
that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties occurred 
and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    These preliminary results are issued and published in accordance 
with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.221(b)(4).
