(the petitioner), a domestic producer of twist ties.1 The Petition was accompanied by a countervailing duty (CVD) petition concerning imports of twist ties from China.2 On June 30 and July 7, 2020, Commerce requested supplemental information pertaining to certain aspects of the Petition in separate supplemental questionnaires and a phone call with the petitioner.3 On July 2, 6, and 9, 1 See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Petition for the Imposition of Antidumping and Countervailing Duties on Twist Ties from the People’s Republic of China,’’ dated June 26, 2020 (the Petition). 2 Id. 3 See Commerce’s Letters, ‘‘Petitions for the Imposition of Antidumping and Countervailing Duties on Imports of Twist Ties from the People’s Republic of China: Supplemental Questions,’’ (General Issues Supplemental); ‘‘Petition for the Imposition of Antidumping Duties on Imports of Twist Ties from the People’s Republic of China: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:31 Jul 24, 2020 Jkt 250001 2020, the petitioner filed responses to these requests for additional information.4 In accordance with section 732(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the petitioner alleges that imports of twist ties from China are being, or are likely to be, sold in the United States at less than fair value (LTFV) within the meaning of section 731 of the Act, and that imports of such products are materially injuring, or threatening material injury to, the domestic twist tie industry in the United States. Consistent with section 732(b)(1) of the Act, the Petition is accompanied by information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting the allegation. Commerce finds that the petitioner filed the Petition on behalf of the domestic industry because the petitioner is an interested party, as defined in sections 771(9)(C) of the Act. Commerce also finds that the petitioner demonstrated sufficient industry support for the initiation of the requested AD investigation.5 Period of Investigation Because China is a non-market economy (NME) country, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.204(b)(1), the period of investigation for the investigation is October 1, 2019 through March 31, 2020. Scope of the Investigation The products covered by this investigation is twist ties from China. For a full description of the scope of this investigation, see the appendix to this notice.

As discussed in the Preamble to Commerce’s regulations, we are setting aside a period for interested parties to raise issues regarding product coverage (i.e., scope).8 Commerce will consider all comments received from interested parties and, if necessary, will consult with interested parties prior to the issuance of the preliminary determination. If scope comments include factual information, all such factual information should be limited to public information.9 To facilitate preparation of its questionnaires, Commerce requests that all interested parties submit such comments by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) on August 5, 2020, which is 20 calendar days from the signature date of this notice. Any rebuttal comments, which may include factual information, must be filed by 5:00 p.m. ET on August 17, 2020, which is the next business day after ten calendar days from the initial comment deadline.10 Commerce requests that any factual information parties consider relevant to the scope of the investigation be submitted during this period. However, if a party subsequently finds that additional factual information pertaining to the scope of the investigation may be relevant, the party may contact Commerce and request permission to submit the additional information. All such submissions must be filed on the records of the concurrent AD and CVD investigations. Filing Requirements All submissions to Commerce must be filed electronically via Enforcement and Compliance’s (E&C’s) Antidumping Duty and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS), unless an exception 6 See General Issues Supplemental at 3–4; see also Phone Call Memorandum. 7 See Second General Issues Supplement at 3–4; see also Second General Issues Supplement at 3– 4. 8 See Antidumping Duties; Countervailing Duties, Final Rule, 62 FR 27296, 27323 (May 19, 1997) (Preamble). 9 See 19 CFR 351.102(b)(21) (defining ‘‘factual information’’). 10 See 19 CFR 351.303(b).
