SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES Background On March 3, 2020, Commerce published the Preliminary Determination in this investigation, and invited interested parties to comment on our findings.1 The petitioners in this 1 See Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet from the Republic of Korea: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Postponement of Final Determination, and Extension of Provisional Measures, 85 FR 12500 VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:11 Jul 21, 2020 Jkt 250001 investigation are Advanced Extrusion, Inc., Ex-Tech Plastics, Inc., and MultiPlastics Extrusions, Inc. (collectively, the petitioners). The mandatory respondents subject to this investigation are the Jin Young Group 2 and Plastech Col, Ltd. (Plastech). A summary of the events that occurred since Commerce published the Preliminary Determination, as well as a full discussion of the issues raised by parties for this final determination, may be found in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.3 The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is available electronically via Enforcement and Compliance’s Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at https:// access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/ index.html. The signed and electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Period of Investigation The POI is July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. Scope of the Investigation The product covered by this investigation is PET sheet from Korea. For a complete description of the scope of this investigation, see Appendix I. Scope Comments On February 25, 2020, we issued a Preliminary Scope Memorandum.4 We (March 3, 2020) (Preliminary Determination), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 2 Commerce previously determined that the mandatory respondent, Jin Young Chemical Co., Ltd. (JYC) is affiliated with Jinyoung Co. Ltd. (JYL) within the meaning of section 771(33) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and also determined JYC and JYL to be a single entity (collectively, the Jin Young Group). See Memorandum, ‘‘Affiliation and Collapsing Memorandum for Jin Young Chemical Co., Ltd.,’’ dated March 4, 2020 (Collapsing Memo). On June 26, 2020, the Jin Young Group consented to withdraw its request for proprietary treatment of the identity of the Korean affiliate, JYL, in the event that Commerce continues to collapse JYC and the affiliate in the final determination. Because no party commented on the decision to collapse these companies, we continue to find the companies comprise a single entity and hereby treat all record references to JYL as public information on this record. 3 See Memorandum, ‘‘Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Determination in the Antidumping Duty Investigation of Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet from the Republic of Korea,’’ dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (Issues and Decision Memorandum). 4 See Memorandum, ‘‘Antidumping Duty Investigations of Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet from the Republic of Korea and the Sultanate of PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 received no scope case briefs from interested parties. Therefore, Commerce has made no changes to the scope of this investigation since the Preliminary Determination. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case briefs and rebuttal briefs submitted by interested parties in this proceeding are discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues raised by parties and responded to by Commerce in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as Appendix II. Verification Commerce normally verifies information relied upon in making its final determination, pursuant to section 782(i)(1) of the Act. However, during the course of this investigation, we were unable to conduct verification.5 Pursuant to section 776(a)(2)(D) of the Act, in situations where information has been provided but the information cannot be verified, Commerce will use ‘‘facts otherwise available’’ in reaching the applicable determination. Accordingly, we relied on facts available in making our final determination. Changes Since the Preliminary Determination Based on our analysis of the comments received and additional information obtained since our preliminary findings, we made certain changes to the margin calculations for the Jin Young Group since the Preliminary Determination. For a discussion of these changes, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum. All-Others Rate Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act provides that the estimated weightedaverage dumping margin for all other producers and exporters not individually investigated shall be equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted-average dumping margins established for individually investigated exporters and producers, excluding any margins that are zero, de minimis, or any margins determined entirely under section 776 of the Act.
