Commerce determines that, in

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(e),

Normally, Commerce would issue
appropriate assessment instructions to
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) 15 days after the date of
publication of these amended final
results of review, to liquidate shipments
of subject merchandise produced and/or
exported by Prosperity entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption during the July 1, 2017
through June 30, 2018 period of review.
However, on April 8, 2020, the Court
enjoined liquidation of entries produced
and exported by Prosperity, and
imported by Prosperity Tieh USA, that
are subject to the Final Results.5
Accordingly, Commerce will not
instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on those enjoined entries
pending resolution of the associated
liquidation.

Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a final
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 POR.
Failure to comply with this requirement
could result in the Secretary’s
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping and/or countervailing
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping
duties.

to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APO) of their

scope of this investigation, see
Appendix I.
Commerce is conducting this
investigation in accordance with section
731 of the Act. Commerce has

value (NV) in accordance with section
773(c) of the Act. For a full description
of the methodology underlying
Commerce’s preliminary determination,
see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.

Suspension of Liquidation
In accordance with section 733(d)(2)
of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
suspend liquidation of subject
merchandise as described in the scope
of the investigation section entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register, as discussed below. Further,
pursuant to section 733(d)(1)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.205(d), Commerce
will instruct CBP to require a cash
deposit equal to the weighted average
amount by which NV exceeds U.S.
price, as indicated in the table above as
follows: (1) For the producer/exporter
combinations listed in the table above,
the cash deposit rate is equal to the
estimated weighted-average dumping
margin listed for that combination in the
table; (2) for all combinations of China
producers/exporters of merchandise
under consideration that have not
established eligibility for their own
separate rates, the cash deposit rate will
be equal to the estimated weightedaverage dumping margin established for
the China-wide entity; and (3) for all
third-country exporters of merchandise
under consideration not listed in the
table above, the cash deposit rate is the
cash deposit rate applicable to the China
producer/exporter combination (or the
China-wide entity) that supplied that
third-country exporter.
To determine the cash deposit rate,
Commerce normally adjusts the
estimated weighted-average dumping
margin by the amount of domestic
subsidy pass-through and export
subsidies determined in a companion
countervailing duty (CVD) proceeding
when CVD provisional measures are in
effect. Accordingly, where Commerce
made a preliminary affirmative
determination for domestic subsidy
pass-through or export subsidies,
Commerce has offset the calculated
estimated weighted-average dumping
margin by the appropriate rates. Any
such adjusted rates may be found in the
Preliminary Determination section’s
table of estimated weighted-average
dumping margins above.
Should provisional measures in the
companion CVD investigation expire
prior to the expiration of provisional
VerDate Sep<11>2014
20:00 Apr 28, 2020
Jkt 250001
measures in this LTFV investigation,
Commerce will direct CBP to begin
collecting cash deposits at a rate equal
to the estimated weighted-average
dumping margins calculated in this
preliminary determination unadjusted
for export subsidies at the time that the
CVD provisional measures expire.
These suspension of liquidation
instructions will remain in effect until
further notice.
Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose to
interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with this
preliminary determination within five
days of its 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).
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments
may be submitted to the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance no later than 21 days after
the date of publication of the
preliminary determination, unless
Commerce alters the time limit. Rebuttal
briefs, limited to issues raised in case
briefs, may be submitted no later than
seven days after the deadline for case
briefs.9 Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), parties who
submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in
this investigation are encouraged to
submit with each argument: (1) A
statement of the issue; (2) a brief
summary of the argument; and (3) a
table of authorities. Note that Commerce
has temporarily modified certain of its
requirements for serving documents
containing business proprietary
information, until May 19, 2020, unless
extended.10
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c),
interested parties who wish to request a
hearing, limited to issues raised in the
case and rebuttal briefs, must submit a
written request to the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance, U.S. Department of
9 See 19 CFR 351.309; see also 19 CFR 351.303

should contain (1) the party’s name,
address, and telephone number; (2) the
number of hearing participants from the
party; (3) whether any participant is a
foreign national; and (4) a list of the
issues to be discussed. If a request for
a hearing is made, Commerce will
determine the date, time, and medium
for conducting the hearing. Parties
should confirm by telephone the date
and time of the hearing two days before
the scheduled date.
Postponement of Final Determination
and Extension of Provisional Measures
Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides
that a final determination may be
postponed until not later than 135 days
after the date of the publication of the
preliminary determination if, in the
event of an affirmative preliminary
determination, a request for such
postponement is made by exporters who
account for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise, or in
the event of a negative preliminary
determination, a request for such
postponement is made by the petitioner.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2),
Commerce requires that requests by
respondents for postponement of a final
antidumping determination be
accompanied by a request for extension
of provisional measures from a fourmonth period to a period not more than
six months in duration.
On April 13 and 15, 2020, pursuant to
19 CFR 351.210(e), Qixia Changyu and
Huaxing requested that Commerce
postpone the final determination and
that provisional measures be extended
to a period not to exceed six months.11
In accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii),
because (1) the preliminary
determination is affirmative; (2) the
requesting exporters account for a
significant proportion of exports of the
subject merchandise; and (3) no
compelling reasons for denial exist,
11 See Qixia Changyu’s Letter, ‘‘Certain Glass
Containers from the People’s Republic of China:
Request for Postponement of the Final
Determination,’’ dated April 13, 2020; see also

preliminary determination in this investigation. The revised deadline
is now April 22, 2020.\2\ For a complete description of the events that
followed the initiation of this investigation, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.\3\ A list of topics included in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is included as Appendix II to this notice. 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).

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this investigation in accordance with
section 731 of the Act. Commerce has calculated export prices in
accordance with section 772(a) of the Act. Because China is a non-
market economy, within the meaning of section 771(18) of the Act,
Commerce has calculated normal value (NV) in accordance with section
773(c) of the Act. For a full description of the methodology underlying
Commerce's preliminary determination, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Combination Rates
In the Initiation Notice,\7\ Commerce explained that it would
calculate producer/exporter combination rates for the respondents that

Suspension of Liquidation
In accordance with section 733(d)(2) of the Act, Commerce will
direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation
of subject merchandise as described in the scope of the investigation
section entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register,
as discussed below. Further, pursuant to section 733(d)(1)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.205(d), Commerce will instruct CBP to require a cash
deposit equal to the weighted average amount by which NV exceeds U.S.
price, as indicated in the table above as follows: (1) For the
producer/exporter combinations listed in the table above, the cash
deposit rate is equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margin
listed for that combination in the table; (2) for all combinations of
China producers/exporters of merchandise under consideration that have
not established eligibility for their own separate rates, the cash
deposit rate will be equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping
margin established for the China-wide entity; and (3) for all third-
country exporters of merchandise under consideration not listed in the
table above, the cash deposit rate is the cash deposit rate applicable
to the China producer/exporter combination (or the China-wide entity)
that supplied that third-country exporter.
To determine the cash deposit rate, Commerce normally adjusts the
estimated weighted-average dumping margin by the amount of domestic
subsidy pass-through and export subsidies determined in a companion
countervailing duty (CVD) proceeding when CVD provisional measures are
in effect. Accordingly, where Commerce made a preliminary affirmative
determination for domestic subsidy pass-through or export subsidies,
Commerce has offset the calculated estimated weighted-average dumping
margin by the appropriate rates. Any such adjusted rates may be found
in the Preliminary Determination section's table of estimated weighted-
average dumping margins above.
Should provisional measures in the companion CVD investigation
expire prior to the expiration of provisional measures in this LTFV
investigation, Commerce will direct CBP to begin collecting cash
deposits at a rate equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping
margins calculated in this preliminary determination unadjusted for
export subsidies at the time that the CVD provisional measures expire.
These suspension of liquidation instructions will remain in effect
until further notice.
Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with this preliminary determination within five
days of its 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).
Public Comment
Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance no later than 21
days after the date of publication of the preliminary determination,
unless Commerce alters the time limit. Rebuttal briefs, limited to
issues raised in case briefs, may be submitted no later than seven days
after the deadline for case briefs.\9\ Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2)
and (d)(2), parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this
investigation are encouraged to submit with each argument: (1) A
statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the argument; and (3) a
table of authorities. Note that Commerce has temporarily modified
certain of its requirements for serving documents containing business
proprietary information, until May 19, 2020, unless extended.\10\

filing requirements).

Due to COVID-19, 85 FR 17006 (March 26, 2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal
briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, within 30 days
after the date of publication of this notice. Requests should contain
(1) the party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of
hearing participants from the party; (3) whether any participant is a
foreign national; and (4) a list of the issues to be discussed. If a
request for a hearing is made, Commerce will determine the date, time,
and medium for conducting the hearing. Parties should confirm by
telephone the date and time of the hearing two days before the
scheduled date.
Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional
Measures
Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides that a final determination
may be postponed until not later than 135 days after the date of the
publication of the preliminary determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement
is made by exporters who account for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise, or in the event of a negative
preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is made by
the petitioner. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2), Commerce requires
that requests by respondents for postponement of a final antidumping
determination be accompanied by a request for extension of provisional
measures from a four-month period to a period not more than six months
in duration.
On April 13 and 15, 2020, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e), Qixia
Changyu and Huaxing requested that Commerce postpone the final
determination and that provisional measures be extended to a period not
to exceed six months.\11\ In accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because (1) the preliminary
determination is affirmative; (2) the requesting exporters account for
a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise; and (3)
no compelling reasons for denial exist,
[[Page 23764]]
Commerce is postponing the final determination and extending the
provisional measures from a four-month period to a period not greater
than six months. Accordingly, Commerce will make its final
determination no later than 135 days after the date of publication of
this preliminary determination.

the People's Republic of China: Request for Postponement of the
Final Determination,'' dated April 13, 2020; see also Huaxing's
Letter, ``Certain Glass Containers from the People's Republic of
China: Request to Extend Final Determination and Provisional
Measures,'' dated April 15, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
International Trade Commission Notification
In accordance with section 733(f) of the Act, Commerce will notify
the International Trade Commission (ITC) of its preliminary
determination of sales at LTFV. If the final determination is
affirmative, the ITC will determine before the later of 120 days after
the date of this preliminary determination or 45 days after the final
determination whether imports of the subject merchandise are materially
injuring, or threaten material injury to, the U.S. industry.
Notification to Interested Parties
This determination is issued and published in accordance with
sections 733(f) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(c).
