Provisional Measures
Section 703(d) of the Act states that
the suspension of liquidation pursuant
to an affirmative preliminary
determination may not remain in effect
for more than four months. Commerce
published the Preliminary
Determination on April 5, 2019.
Therefore, the four-month period
beginning on the date of the publication
of the Preliminary Determination ended
on August 1, 2019. In accordance with
section 703(d) of the Act, Commerce
instructed CBP to terminate the
suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate, without regard to
countervailing duties, unliquidated
entries of refillable stainless steel kegs
from China entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption after
August 1, 2019, the date the provisional
measures expired. Suspension of
liquidation will resume on the date of
publication in the Federal Register of
the ITC’s determination that the
establishment of an industry was
materially retarded by reason of
subsidized imports.

The merchandise covered by the order are
kegs, vessels, or containers with bodies that
are approximately cylindrical in shape, made
from stainless steel (i.e., steel containing at

less than 1.2 percent carbon by weight, with
or without other elements), and that are
compatible with a ‘‘D Sankey’’ extractor
(refillable stainless steel kegs) with a nominal
liquid volume capacity of 10 liters or more,
regardless of the type of finish, gauge,
thickness, or grade of stainless steel, and
whether or not covered by or encased in
other materials. Refillable stainless steel kegs
may be imported assembled or unassembled,
with or without all components (including
spears, couplers or taps, necks, collars, and
valves), and be filled or unfilled.
‘‘Unassembled’’ or ‘‘unfinished’’ refillable
stainless steel kegs include drawn stainless
steel cylinders that have been welded to form
the body of the keg and attached to an upper
(top) chime and/or lower (bottom) chime.
Unassembled refillable stainless steel kegs
may or may not be welded to a neck, may
or may not have a valve assembly attached,
and may be otherwise complete except for
testing, certification, and/or marking.
Subject merchandise also includes
refillable stainless steel kegs that have been
further processed in a third country,
including but not limited to, attachment of
necks, collars, spears or valves, heat
treatment, pickling, passivation, painting,
testing, certification or any other processing
that would not otherwise remove the
merchandise from the scope of the order if
performed in the country of manufacture of
the in-scope refillable stainless steel keg.

I. Abstract
The Departments of Commerce and
Homeland Security (‘‘DHS’’) are
required to determine whether nonprofit
institutions established for scientific or
educational purposes are entitled to
duty-free entry for scientific instruments
the institutions import under the
Florence Agreement. Form ITA–338P
enables: (1) DHS to determine whether
the statutory eligibility requirements for
the institution and the instrument are
fulfilled, and (2) Commerce to make a
comparison and finding as to the
scientific equivalency of comparable
instruments being manufactured in the
United States. Without the collection of
the information, DHS and Commerce
would not have the necessary
information to carry out the
responsibilities of determining
eligibility for duty-free entry assigned
by law.
II. Method of Collection
A copy of Form ITA–338P is provided
on and downloadable from a website at
https://enforcement.trade.gov/sips/
sipsform/ita-338p.pdf or the potential
applicant may request a copy from the
Department. The applicant completes
the form and then forwards it via mail
to DHS.
