Ceramic Tile From the People’s
Republic of China: Notice of
Correction to the Preliminary
Affirmative Determination of Sales at
Less Than Fair Value
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(Commerce) is correcting the
preliminary determination of sales at
less than fair value (LTFV) for ceramic
tile from the People’s Republic of China
(China). The period of investigation is
October 1, 2018, through March 31,
2019.
AGENCY:
DATES:
Applicable December 13, 2019.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Heather Lui or Paul Walker, AD/CVD
Operations, Office VI, Enforcement and
Compliance, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone:
(202) 482–0016 or (202) 482–0413,
respectively.
On
November 14, 2019, Commerce
published the preliminary
determination of sales at LTFV for
ceramic tile from China.1 In the
Preliminary Determination, Commerce
inadvertently omitted certain separate
rate companies and their corresponding
producers from the margin chart.
Commerce also is correcting spelling
errors for two additional separate rate
companies.
Additionally, in the Preliminary
Determination, Commerce inadvertently
identified Beilitai (Tianjin) Tile Co., Ltd.
and its producers as receiving the
separate rate applicable to nonindividually examined companies.2
Because we found in the Preliminary
Determination that Beilitai (Tianjin) Tile
Co., Ltd. should be treated as a single
entity with mandatory respondent Belite
Ceramics (Anyang) Co., Ltd. and Tianjin
Honghui Creative Technology Co., Ltd.,3
Beilitai (Tianjin) Tile Co., Ltd. and its
producers should be included in the
margin applicable to Belite Ceramics
(Anyang) Co., Ltd./Beilitai (Tianjin) Tile
Co., Ltd./Tianjin Honghui Creative
Technology Co., Ltd. We correct those
omissions and errors in the chart below.
