Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 202 / Friday, October 18, 2019 / Notices
dividing the amount of dumping for
reviewed sales to the importer by the
total sales quantity associated with
those transactions. Where an importerspecific ad valorem assessment rate is
not zero or de minimis, Commerce will
instruct CBP to collect the appropriate
duties at the time of liquidation. Where
either the respondent’s weighted
average dumping margin is zero or de
minimis, or an importer-specific ad
valorem assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to
liquidate appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.19
Pursuant to Commerce practice, 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 rate
for the China-wide entity.20
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 CBP case number
will be liquidated at the rate for the
China-wide entity.
For the companies for which this
review is rescinded, antidumping duties
will be assessed at rates equal to the
cash deposit of estimated antidumping
duties required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). Commerce intends
to issue appropriate assessment
instructions with respect to the
companies for which this review is
rescinded to CBP 15 days after the
publication of this notice.
In accordance with section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, the final results
of this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on
POR entries, and for future deposits of
estimated antidumping duties, where
applicable.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Commerce will instruct CBP to
require a cash deposit for antidumping
duties equal to the weighted-average
amount by which NV exceeds U.S.
price. The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for shipments of
the subject merchandise from China
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of this notice, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
19 See
Final Modification, 77 FR at 8103.

Act: (1) For the exporters listed above,
the cash deposit rate will be equal to the
weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of this
review (except that, if the rate is de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), then
the cash deposit rate will be zero for
that exporter); (2) for previously
investigated or reviewed China and nonChina exporters not listed above that
have separate rates, the cash deposit rate
will continue to be the exporter-specific
rate published for the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding;
(3) for all China exporters of subject
merchandise which have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate for
the China-wide entity (i.e., 76.46
percent); 21 and (4) for all non-China
exporters of subject merchandise that
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 duties and/or
countervailing duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this POR. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in
Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
and/or countervailing duties has
occurred, and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties and/or an increase in the amount
of antidumping duties by the amount of
the countervailing duties.
These preliminary results are issued
and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.213 and
351.221(b)(4).

Background
On August 5, 2019, Commerce
published its affirmative final
determination in the less-than-fair-value
(LTFV) investigation of glycine from
Thailand.1 On October 8, 2019, the ITC
notified Commerce of its final
affirmative determination, pursuant to
section 735(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act), that an industry
in the United States is materially
injured within the meaning of section
735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of
LTFV imports of glycine from
Thailand.2 Further, the ITC determined
that critical circumstances do not exist
with respect to LTFV imports of glycine
from Thailand.

Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
glycine from Thailand. For a complete
description of the scope of this order,
see the Appendix to this notice.
Antidumping Duty Order
On October 8, 2019, in accordance
with sections 735(b)(1)(A)(i) and 735(d)
of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce
of its final determination in this
investigation, in which it found that an
industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports
of glycine from Thailand.3 As a result,
and in accordance with sections
735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act, Commerce
is issuing and publishing this
antidumping duty order. Because the
ITC determined that imports of glycine
from Thailand are materially injuring a
U.S. industry, Commerce will instruct
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on
the subject merchandise from Thailand.
As a result of the ITC Notification, in
accordance with section 736(a) of the
Act, Commerce will direct CBP to
assess, upon further instruction by
Commerce, antidumping duties equal to
the amount by which the normal value
of the merchandise exceeds the export
price (or constructed export price) of the
merchandise, for all relevant entries of
glycine from Thailand. Antidumping
duties will be assessed on unliquidated
entries of glycine from Thailand
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after August 5,
2019, the date of publication of the
Final Determination.4
Continuation of Suspension of
Liquidation
In accordance with section
735(c)(1)(B) and (C) and section 736 of
the Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to
continue to suspend liquidation on all
relevant entries of glycine from
Thailand. We intend to instruct CBP to
require, at the same time as importers
would normally deposit estimated
import duties on this merchandise, cash
deposits of estimated antidumping
duties for each entry of subject
merchandise equal to the rates noted
below. The all-others rate applies to all
other producers or exporters not
specifically listed. These instructions
suspending liquidation will remain in
effect until further notice.
Critical Circumstances
The ITC found no critical
circumstances on LTFV imports of
glycine from Thailand. Accordingly, we

to refund all cash deposits made to
secure the payment of estimated
antidumping duties with respect to
entries of glycine from Thailand
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after May 7, 2019
(i.e., 90 days prior to the date of
publication of the Final Determination),
