Preliminary Intent To Rescind the
Administrative Review
Based on information submitted after
the initiation of this administrative
review, and due to the fact that we have
not received any information from U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
indicating that the companies subject to
this review had reviewable entries of
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR, Commerce
preliminarily determines that the record
evidence indicates that no company
subject to this review had reviewable
entries during the POR.4 Should
evidence arise that leads us to conclude
that the companies subject to this
review had reviewable entries of subject
merchandise to the United States during
the POR, we will revisit this issue in the
final results of this administrative
review. Absent any evidence of POR
entries of subject merchandise being
placed on the record, pursuant to 19
CFR 351.213(d)(3), we intend to rescind
the administrative review of these
companies in the final results.
Public Comment

Enforcement and Compliance’s

NW, Washington, DC 20230, at a time to
be determined. Prior to the hearing,
Commerce will contact all parties who
submitted case or rebuttal briefs to
determine if they wish to participate in
the hearing. Commerce will then
distribute a hearing schedule to these
parties prior to the hearing, and only
those parties listed on the hearing
schedule may present issues raised in
their briefs.
All submissions, with limited
exceptions, must be filed electronically
