SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Initiation
Pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.216(d), Commerce will
conduct a CCR upon receipt of
information or a review request showing
changed circumstances sufficient to
warrant a review of an order. Among
other things, Commerce has conducted
CCRs to consider the applicability of
cash deposit rates after there have been
changes in the name or structure of a
company, such as a merger or spinoff
(‘‘successor-in-interest,’’ or
‘‘successorship,’’ determinations).
However, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.216(c), Commerce will not conduct

351.216(d), we are initiating a CCR to
determine whether TAK is the
successor-in-interest to TCK for
purposes of the AD Order.
In addition, Commerce’s regulations
at 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii) permit it to
initiate a CCR and issue the preliminary
results of that CCR simultaneously if it
concludes that expedited action is
warranted. We have on the record the
information necessary to make a
preliminary finding and therefore we
find that expedited action is warranted.9
Consequently, we are combining the
initiation of the CCR described above
and our preliminary results in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(3)(ii).
Preliminary Results
jbell on DSK3GLQ082PROD with NOTICES
In determining whether one company
is the successor to another for AD
purposes, Commerce examines a
number of factors including, but not
limited to, changes in: (1) Management,
(2) production facilities, (3) suppliers,
and (4) customer base.10 While no one,
or several, of these factors will
necessarily provide a dispositive
indication of succession, Commerce will
generally consider one company to be
the successor to another company if its
resulting operations are essentially the
same as those of its predecessor.11 Thus,
if the evidence demonstrates that, with
respect to the production and sale of the
subject merchandise, the company, in
its current form, operates as essentially
the same business entity as the prior
company, Commerce will assign the
new company the cash deposit rate of
its predecessor.12
TAK provided evidence 13 that: (1)
TCK merged into TAK in April 2019; (2)
all of TCK’s assets and liabilities were
transferred to TAK, and TCK ceased to
exist; and (3) there were no significant
changes to management,14 production

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 20, 2018, Commerce published the AD Order on PSF from the
Republic of Korea in the Federal Register.\1\ TCK was excluded from the
AD Order.\2\ On May 23, 2019, Commerce received a request on behalf of
TAK for an expedited CCR to establish TAK as the successor-in-interest
to TCK with respect to the AD Order.\3\ On June 17, 2019, Commerce
informed TAK that it required additional information in order to
determine whether to initiate the requested CCR.\4\ On June 21, 2019,
TAK provided the requested information.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Fine Denier Polyester Staple Fiber from the People's

\5\ See TAK's Letter, ``Response Regarding Changed Circumstances
Review Request'' (June 21, 2019) (Response Regarding Changed

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the AD Order
The merchandise covered by the order is fine denier polyester
staple fiber (fine denier PSF), not carded or combed, measuring less
than 3.3 decitex (3 denier) in diameter. The scope covers all fine
denier PSF, whether coated or uncoated. Fine denier PSF is classifiable
under the HTSUS subheading 5503.20.0025. Although the HTSUS subheadings
are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written
description of the scope of the order is dispositive.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ For a complete description of the scope of the AD Order, see
Memorandum, ``Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed
Circumstances Review: Fine Denier Polyester Staple Fiber (PSF) from
the Republic of Korea,'' dated concurrently, with and hereby adopted
by, this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum). The Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file
electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
The signed and the electronic versions of the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum are identical in content.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initiation
Pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.216(d), Commerce will conduct a CCR upon
receipt of information or a review request showing changed
circumstances sufficient to warrant a review of an order. Among other
things, Commerce has conducted CCRs to consider the applicability of
cash deposit rates after there have been changes in the name or
structure of a company, such as a merger or spinoff (``successor-in-
interest,'' or ``successorship,'' determinations). However, pursuant to
19 CFR 351.216(c), Commerce will not conduct a CCR in a proceeding
within 24 months of publication of the notice of final determination in
that proceeding without good cause.
The final determination that led to the AD Order was published on
May 30, 2018.\7\ Thus, the CCR request under consideration was filed
less than 24 months after the date of publication of the notice of
final determination in the PSF investigation. However, pursuant to 19
CFR 351.216(c), we find that good cause exists to initiate this CCR on
the grounds of fairness and ease of administration. Commerce has found
good cause on the basis of fairness and ease of administration in other
CCRs involving ``successor-in-interest.'' \8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See Fine Denier Polyester Staple Fiber from the Republic of
Korea: Final Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair
Value, 83 FR 24743, 24744 (May 30, 2018), and accompanying Issues
and Decision Memorandum.
\8\ See Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed
Circumstances Reviews: Antidumping Duty Orders on Crystalline
Silicon Photovoltaic Cells, Whether or Not Assembled Into Modules,

Republic of China, 82 FR 12558 (March 6, 2017), unchanged in

China and Antidumping Duty Orders on Certain Crystalline Silicon
Photovoltaic Products from the People's Republic of China: Final
Results of Changed Circumstances Reviews, 82 FR 17797 (April 13,
2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Moreover, we find the information provided is sufficient to warrant
a CCR of the AD Order. Specifically, the information TAK provided
regarding TCK's merger into TAK and the fact that TCK was excluded from
the AD Order, but TAK is subject to the all-others dumping rate,
demonstrates changed circumstances sufficient to warrant a CCR with
respect to the order.
Therefore, in accordance with section 751(b)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR
[[Page 44280]]
351.216(d), we are initiating a CCR to determine whether TAK is the
successor-in-interest to TCK for purposes of the AD Order.
In addition, Commerce's regulations at 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii)
permit it to initiate a CCR and issue the preliminary results of that
CCR simultaneously if it concludes that expedited action is warranted.
We have on the record the information necessary to make a preliminary
finding and therefore we find that expedited action is warranted.\9\
Consequently, we are combining the initiation of the CCR described
above and our preliminary results in accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(3)(ii).
