Foreign-Trade Zones Board
HP International Trading B.V. (Puerto
Rico Branch), LLC (HP International),
submitted a notification of proposed
production activity to the FTZ Board for
its facility in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.
The notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on June 24, 2020.
The HP International facility is
located within Subzone 61V. The
facility is used for the production of
inkjet inks/dispersions/printing fluids/
cartridges, 3D printing fluids/cartridges
and related subassemblies used in the
commercial and industrial graphics
markets. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b),
FTZ activity would be limited to the
specific foreign-status materials and
components and specific finished
products described in the submitted
notification (as described below) and
subsequently authorized by the FTZ
Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt HP International from
customs duty payments on the foreignstatus components used in export
production. On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status materials/components
noted below, HP International would be
able to choose the duty rates during
customs entry procedures that apply to:
bulk inkjet water-based 3D printing
fluids (in drums or totes); inkjet UV,
solvent, and water-based black inks
(bulk -drums, totes, or bottle); inkjet UV,
solvent, and water-based color inks;

which become scrap/waste. Customs
duties also could possibly be deferred or
reduced on foreign-status production
equipment.

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

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).

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.
Because the weighted-average
dumping margin for Plastech Co., Ltd,
the non-participating mandatory
respondent is based entirely on adverse
