On October 21, 2019, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent interested parties.6 As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of this antidumping duty order. Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by this order is ground, pulverized or refined brown artificial corundum, also known as brown aluminum oxide or brown fused alumina, in grit size of 3⁄8 inch or less. Excluded from the scope of the order is crude artificial corundum in which particles with a diameter greater than 3⁄8 inch constitute at least 50 percent of the total weight of the entire batch. The scope includes brown artificial corundum in which particles with a diameter greater than 3⁄8 inch constitute less than 50 percent of the total weight of the batch. The merchandise under investigation is currently classifiable under subheadings 2818.10.20.00 and 2818.10.20.90 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise covered by the order is dispositive.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on aluminum extrusions from the People’s Republic of China (China). The period of review (POR) is May 1, 2018 through April 30, 2019. Commerce preliminarily determines that none of the 52 companies for which an administrative review was requested, and not withdrawn, demonstrated eligibility for a separate rate, and are, therefore, all part of the China-wide entity. For the 205 companies for which all requests for administrative review have been timely withdrawn, we rescind this administrative review. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. DATES: Applicable December 31, 2019.

For a full description of the methodology underlying our preliminary results of review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party or parties that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. As noted above, all requests for an administrative review were timely withdrawn for certain companies. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this administrative review with respect to 205 of the 257 companies named in the Initiation Notice.7 See Appendix II for a list of these companies.8 Separate Rates In the Initiation Notice, we informed parties of the opportunity to request a separate rate.9 In proceedings involving non-market economy (NME) countries, Commerce begins with a rebuttable presumption that all companies within the NME country are subject to government control, and thus should be assigned a single weighted-average dumping margin. It is Commerce’s policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to an administrative review involving an NME country this single rate unless an exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as to be entitled to a separate rate. Companies that wanted to qualify for separate rate status in this administrative review were required to timely file, as appropriate, a separate rate application (SRA) or a separate rate certification (SRC) to demonstrate their eligibility for a separate rate. SRAs and SRCs were due to Commerce within 30 calendar days of the publication of the Initiation Notice.10 However, because certain information was corrected in the Correction Notice,11 Commerce extended the deadline for submission of 7 See Initiation Notice, 84 FR at 33743–46; see also Correction Notice, 84 FR at 47248. 8 See Preliminary Decision Memorandum for further details. 9 See Initiation Notice, 84 FR at 33740–41. 10 Id., 84 FR at 33741. 11 See Correction Notice, 84 FR at 47248.

Therefore, no company for which a request for administrative review remains in place has demonstrated that it is entitled to a separate rate. We therefore preliminarily determine that the following companies are not eligible for a separate rate in this administrative review: (1) Activa Leisure Inc.; (2) Allied Maker Limited; (3) Birchwoods (Lin’an) Leisure Products Co., Ltd.; (4) Changzhou Changzhen Evaporator Co., Ltd.; (5) Changzhou Changzheng Evaporator Co., Ltd.; (6) Cosco (J.M.)

Commerce’s policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide entity applies to this administrative review.14 Under this policy, the Chinawide entity will not be under review unless a party specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity in the instant review, and because Commerce did not self-initiate such a review, the entity is not under review, and the entity’s current rate (i.e., 86.01 percent) 15 is not subject to change. Adjustments for Countervailable Subsidies Because no company established eligibility for an adjustment under section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies, for these preliminary results, Commerce did not make an adjustment pursuant to section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies for any companies under review. Furthermore, because the China-wide entity is not under review, we made no adjustment for countervailable export subsidies for the China-wide entity pursuant to section 772(c)(1)(C) of the Act. Disclosure and Public Comment Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations performed in connection with the preliminary results within five days of the public announcement, or if there is 13 See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at 9– 11. 14 See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963, 65970 (November 4, 2013). 15 See Aluminum Extrusions from the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2017–2018, 84 FR 56164, 56165 (October 21, 2019).

Assessment Rates Upon issuance of the final results of this review, Commerce will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.23 Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of the final results of this review. We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries containing subject merchandise exported by the China-wide entity at the China-wide rate. 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 case number will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.24 For the companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall 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)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP for those companies 15 days after publication of this notice. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements for estimated antidumping duties, when imposed, will apply to all shipments of subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) If the companies preliminarily determined to be eligible for a separate rate receive a separate rate in the final results of this administrative review, their cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of this review, as adjusted for domestic and export subsidies (except that if that rate is de minimis, then the cash deposit rate will be zero); (2) for any previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that are not under review in this segment of the proceeding but that received a separate rate in the most recently completed segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the 23 See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).

These cash 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 prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Aluminum Extrusions From the People's Republic of China: 
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and 
Rescission of Review in Part; 2018-2019

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on aluminum 
extrusions from the People's Republic of China (China). The period of 
review (POR) is May 1, 2018 through April 30, 2019. Commerce 
preliminarily determines that none of the 52 companies for which an 
administrative review was requested, and not withdrawn, demonstrated 
eligibility for a separate rate, and are, therefore, all part of the 
China-wide entity. For the 205 companies for which all requests for 
administrative review have been timely withdrawn, we rescind this 
administrative review. Interested parties are invited to comment on 
these preliminary results.

DATES: Applicable December 31, 2019.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For a 
full description of the methodology underlying our preliminary results 
of review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party or parties 
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the 
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. 
As noted above, all requests for an administrative review were timely 
withdrawn for certain companies. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this administrative review with 
respect to 205 of the 257 companies named in the Initiation Notice.\7\ 
See Appendix II for a list of these companies.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Initiation Notice, 84 FR at 33743-46; see also 
Correction Notice, 84 FR at 47248.
    \8\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum for further details.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rates

    In the Initiation Notice, we informed parties of the opportunity to 
request a separate rate.\9\ In proceedings involving non-market economy 
(NME) countries, Commerce begins with a rebuttable presumption that all 
companies within the NME country are subject to government control, and 
thus should be assigned a single weighted-average dumping margin. It is 
Commerce's policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to an 
administrative review involving an NME country this single rate unless 
an exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as 
to be entitled to a separate rate. Companies that wanted to qualify for 
separate rate status in this administrative review were required to 
timely file, as appropriate, a separate rate application (SRA) or a 
separate rate certification (SRC) to demonstrate their eligibility for 
a separate rate. SRAs and SRCs were due to Commerce within 30 calendar 
days of the publication of the Initiation Notice.\10\ However, because 
certain information was corrected in the Correction Notice,\11\ 
Commerce extended the deadline for submission of

[[Page 72296]]

SRAs, SRCs, and certifications of no shipments to September 6, 
2019.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Initiation Notice, 84 FR at 33740-41.
    \10\ Id., 84 FR at 33741.
    \11\ See Correction Notice, 84 FR at 47248.
    \12\ See Memorandum, ``2018-2019 Administrative Review of the 
Antidumping Duty Order on Aluminum Extrusions from the People's 
Republic of China: Correction of Initiation Notice and Deadlines for 
Notice of No Sales, Separate Rate Application/Certifications, and 
Quantity and Value Questionnaire Responses,'' dated August 5, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Of the companies for which an administrative review was requested, 
and not withdrawn, none submitted an SRA, SRC, or certification of no 
shipments. Therefore, no company for which a request for administrative 
review remains in place has demonstrated that it is entitled to a 
separate rate. We therefore preliminarily determine that the following 
companies are not eligible for a separate rate in this administrative 
review: (1) Activa Leisure Inc.; (2) Allied Maker Limited; (3)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

China-Wide Entity

    We preliminarily find that the 52 companies listed above are part 
of the China-wide entity in this administrative review because they 
failed to submit an SRA, SRC, or certification of no shipments.
    Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide 
entity applies to this administrative review.\14\ Under this policy, 
the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party 
specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the 
entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity in 
the instant review, and because Commerce did not self-initiate such a 
review, the entity is not under review, and the entity's current rate 
(i.e., 86.01 percent) \15\ is not subject to change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in 
Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty 
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity 
in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963, 65970 (November 4, 
2013).
    \15\ See Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic of 
China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 
2017-2018, 84 FR 56164, 56165 (October 21, 2019).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adjustments for Countervailable Subsidies

    Because no company established eligibility for an adjustment under 
section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies, for 
these preliminary results, Commerce did not make an adjustment pursuant 
to section 777A(f) of the Act for countervailable domestic subsidies 
for any companies under review. Furthermore, because the China-wide 
entity is not under review, we made no adjustment for countervailable 
export subsidies for the China-wide entity pursuant to section 
772(c)(1)(C) of the Act.

Disclosure and Public Comment

    Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations 
performed in connection with the preliminary results within five days 
of the public announcement, or if there is no public announcement, 
within five days of the date of publication of this notice in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because Commerce did not 
calculate weighted-average dumping margins for any companies in this 
review, nor for the China-wide entity, there is nothing further to 
disclose. This satisfies our regulatory obligation.
    Interested parties may submit case briefs no later than 30 days 
after the date of publication of this notice.\16\ Rebuttal briefs, 
limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed no later than 
five days after the case briefs are filed.\17\ Parties who submit case 
or rebuttal briefs in this review are requested to submit with each 
argument: (a) A statement of the issue, (b) a brief summary of the 
argument, and (c) a table of authorities.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(ii).
    \17\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d).
    \18\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Any interested party may request a hearing within 30 days of 
publication of this notice.\19\ Hearing requests should contain the 
following information: (1) The party's name, address, and telephone 
number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of the issues to 
be discussed. Oral presentations at the hearing will be limited to 
issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs. If a request for a 
hearing is made, parties will be notified of the time and date for the 
hearing to be held at the U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 
Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
    \20\ See 19 CFR 351.310(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    All submissions, with limited exceptions, must be filed 
electronically using ACCESS.\21\ An electronically filed document must 
be received successfully in its entirety by Commerce's electronic 
records system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) on the due date. 
Documents excepted from the electronic submission requirements must be 
filed manually (i.e., in paper form) with the APO/Dockets Unit in Room 
18022 and stamped with the date and time of receipt by 5 p.m. ET on the 
due date.\22\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ See generally 19 CFR 351.303.
    \22\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Electronic Filing Procedures; Administrative Protective Order 
Procedures, 76 FR 39263 (July 6, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final 
results of this administrative review, which will include the results 
of our analysis of all issues raised in any briefs received, within 120 
days of publication of these preliminary results in the

[[Page 72297]]

Federal Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results of this review, Commerce will 
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this 
review.\23\ Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 
days after publication of the final results of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We intend to instruct CBP to liquidate entries containing subject 
merchandise exported by the China-wide entity at the China-wide rate. 
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 case number will be liquidated at the 
China-wide rate.\24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \24\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping 
duties shall 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)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to 
CBP for those companies 15 days after publication of this notice.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements for estimated antidumping 
duties, when imposed, will apply to all shipments of subject 
merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for 
consumption on or after the publication of the final results of this 
administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: 
(1) If the companies preliminarily determined to be eligible for a 
separate rate receive a separate rate in the final results of this 
administrative review, their cash deposit rate will be equal to the 
weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of 
this review, as adjusted for domestic and export subsidies (except that 
if that rate is de minimis, then the cash deposit rate will be zero); 
(2) for any previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese 
exporters that are not under review in this segment of the proceeding 
but that received a separate rate in the most recently completed 
segment of this proceeding, 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 Chinese exporters of subject 
merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, 
the cash deposit rate will be that of the China-wide entity; (4) for 
the China-wide entity, the cash deposit rate will be 86.01 percent; and 
(5) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not 
received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate 
applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese 
exporter.
    These cash 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 prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing notice of these preliminary results 
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.221(b)(4).

    Dated: December 20, 2019.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
