respect to the 89 companies in the
petitioner’s administrative review
request.4 On July 7, 2020, the petitioner
timely withdrew its request for an
administrative review for all 89
companies.5
Rescission of Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the party which requested a
review withdraws the request within 90
days of the date of publication of the
notice of initiation of the requested
review. The party which requested an
administrative review withdrew its
request for review for all companies by
the 90-day deadline, and no other party
requested an administrative review of
this order. Therefore, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are
rescinding the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on silica
fabric from China covering the period
March 1, 2019, through February 29,
2020, in its entirety.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. 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 appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.

Notification to Importers
This notice 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 review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement may
result in the presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.

Background
Commerce published the notice of
initiation of this administrative review
on July 15, 2019, covering 257
companies, based on requests from the
Aluminum Extrusions Fair Trade
Committee (petitioner) and Endura
Products Inc. (Endura).1 On October 15,

2019, the petitioner and Endura
withdrew their requests for review for
all but the following nine companies: (1)
Activa International Inc. (Activa); (2)
Changzhou Tenglong Auto Parts Co.
Ltd. (Changzhou Tenglong); (3) CRRC
Changzhou Auto Parts Co. Ltd. (CRRC);
(4) Dongguan Aoda Aluminum Co. Ltd.

Aluminum Industry Engineering Co.
Ltd. (Shenyang Yuanda); (8) Summit
Heat Sinks Metal Co, Ltd. (Summit); and
(9) Wenzhou Yongtai Electric Co. Ltd.
(Wenzhou Yongtai).2 Between January
27, 2020 and February 6, 2020,
Commerce extended the deadline for the
preliminary results.3 On April 24, 2020,
Commerce tolled all deadlines in
administrative reviews by 50 days,
thereby extending the deadline for these
results until July 20, 2020.4
For a complete description of the
events that followed the initiation of
this review, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum, which is dated
concurrently with, and hereby adopted
by, this notice.5 A list of topics
discussed in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is included as Appendix
I to this notice. The Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is a public

Extrusions from the People’s Republic of China:
Partial Withdrawal of Request for Administrative
Review,’’ dated October 15, 2019 (Petitioner and
Endura Withdrawal Request).

Republic of China: Extension of Deadline for

2020.
4 See Memorandum, ‘‘Tolling of Deadlines for
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews in Response to Operational
Adjustments Due to COVID–19,’’ dated April 24,
2020. Commerce’s practice dictates that where a
deadline falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the
appropriate deadline is the next business day. See
Notice of Clarification: Application of ‘‘Next
Business Day’’ Rule for Administrative
Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act
of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
Because the 50-day extension would result in the
signature date being on a weekend, the deadline
moves to the next business day, Monday, July 20,
2020.

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act). For purposes of this review,
Commerce preliminarily finds that all
programs previously countervailed in
prior segments of this proceeding,
remain countervailable—that is, they
provide a financial contribution within
the meaning of sections 771(5)(B)(i) and
(D) of the Act, confer a benefit within
the meaning of section 771(5)(B) of the

Act, and are specific within the meaning
of 771(5A) of the Act.
For a full description of the
methodology underlying our
preliminary conclusions, including our
reliance on adverse facts available
pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of
the Act, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum. As explained in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum,
Commerce relied on adverse facts
available because the Government of
China (GOC) and seven of the nine
companies that remain under review
(i.e., Activa, CRRC, Guangdong Xingfa,
Precision Metal, Shenyang Yuanda,
Summit, Wenzhou Yongtai) did not act
to the best of their ability in responding
to Commerce’s requests for information,
and consequently, we have drawn an
adverse inference, where appropriate, in
selecting from among the facts
otherwise available.7 For further
information, see ‘‘Use of Facts
Otherwise Available and Adverse
Inferences’’ in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
For the other two companies (i.e.,
Changzhou Tenglong and Dongguan
Aoda), we preliminarily assigned a rate
based on the average of the most
recently determined rates in a prior
segment of this proceeding that are not
zero, de minimis, or based entirely on
facts available.8 For further information,
see ‘‘Non-Selected Company Rates’’ in
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Intent to Rescind Review, In Part
For those companies named in the
Initiation Notice for which all review
requests have been timely withdrawn,9
we intend to rescind this administrative
review in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1). These companies are
listed at Appendix II to this notice. For
these companies, Commerce intends to
assess duties at rates equal to the cash
deposits of estimated countervailing
duties required at the time of entry, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption, during the POR, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(2).
Preliminary Results
Commerce preliminarily determines
that the following estimated
countervailable subsidy rates exist: 10

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Petition
On July 9, 2020, the U.S. Department
of Commerce (Commerce) received a
countervailing duty (CVD) petition
concerning imports of certain metal
lockers and parts thereof (metal lockers)
from the People’s Republic of China
(China) filed in proper form on behalf of
List Industries, Inc., Lyon LLC, Penco
Products, Inc., and Tennsco LLC
(collectively, the petitioners), domestic
producers of metal lockers.1 The
Petition was accompanied by an
antidumping duty (AD) petition
concerning imports of metal lockers
from China.2
On July 13, 2020, Commerce
requested supplemental information
pertaining to certain aspects of the
Petition in separate supplemental
questionnaires.3 Further, on July 22,
1 See Petitioners’ Letter, ‘‘Petitions for the
Imposition of Antidumping and Countervailing
Duties Against Imports of Certain Metal Lockers
and Parts Thereof from the People’s Republic of
China,’’ dated July 9, 2020 (the Petition).

Questions,’’ and ‘‘Certain Metal Lockers and Parts

2020, Commerce held a conversation via
telephone with counsel to the
petitioners requesting further
clarification regarding certain
outstanding issues.4 As part of these
requests, Commerce asked that the
petitioners provide further information
regarding the proposed scope to ensure
that the scope language in the Petition
is an accurate reflection of the products
for which the domestic industry is
seeking relief. On July 16, 17, and 23,
2020, the petitioners filed responses to
Commerce’s supplemental
questionnaires, which included
revisions to the scope.5
In accordance with section 702(b)(1)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act), the petitioners allege that the
Government of China (GOC) is
providing countervailable subsidies,
within the meaning of sections 701 and
771(5) of the Act, to producers of metal
lockers in China and that such imports
are materially injuring, or threatening
material injury to, the domestic industry
producing metal lockers in the United
States. Consistent with section 702(b)(1)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.202(b), for
those alleged programs on which we are
initiating a CVD investigation, the
Petition is supported by information
reasonably available to the petitioners
supporting their allegations.
Commerce finds that the petitioners
filed the Petition on behalf of the
domestic industry because the
petitioners are interested parties as
defined in section 771(9)(C) of the Act.
Commerce also finds that the petitioners
demonstrated sufficient industry
support with respect to the initiation of
the requested CVD investigation.6
Period of Investigation
Because the Petition was filed on July
9, 2020, the period of investigation (POI)

Aluminum Extrusions From the People's Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review and
Intent to Rescind, in Part; 2018
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines
that countervailable subsidies have been provided to producers and
exporters of aluminum extrusions from the People's Republic of China
(China) for the period of review (POR) January 1, 2018 through December
31, 2018. Interested parties are invited to comment on these
preliminary results.
DATES: Applicable August 5, 2020.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Davina Friedmann, AD/CVD Operations,
Office VI, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-0698.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Commerce published the notice of initiation of this administrative
review on July 15, 2019, covering 257 companies, based on requests from
the Aluminum Extrusions Fair Trade Committee (petitioner) and Endura
Products Inc. (Endura).\1\ On October 15, 2019, the petitioner and
Endura withdrew their requests for review for all but the following
nine companies: (1) Activa International Inc. (Activa); (2) Changzhou
Tenglong Auto Parts Co. Ltd. (Changzhou Tenglong); (3) CRRC Changzhou
Auto Parts Co. Ltd. (CRRC); (4) Dongguan Aoda Aluminum Co. Ltd.
(Dongguan Aoda); (5) Guangdong Xingfa Aluminum Co., Ltd. (Guangdong
Xingfa); (6) Precision Metal Works Ltd. (Precision Metal); (7) Shenyang
Yuanda Aluminum Industry Engineering Co. Ltd. (Shenyang Yuanda); (8)
Summit Heat Sinks Metal Co, Ltd. (Summit); and (9) Wenzhou Yongtai
Electric Co. Ltd. (Wenzhou Yongtai).\2\ Between January 27, 2020 and
February 6, 2020, Commerce extended the deadline for the preliminary
results.\3\ On April 24, 2020, Commerce tolled all deadlines in
administrative reviews by 50 days, thereby extending the deadline for
these results until July 20, 2020.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 84 FR 33739 (July 15, 2019) (Notice of
Initiation); and Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 84 FR 47242 (September 9, 2019), which
contains corrections to certain company names published in the July
15, 2019 Notice of Initiation (collectively, Initiation Notice).
\2\ See Petitioner and Endura's Letter, ``Aluminum Extrusions
from the People's Republic of China: Partial Withdrawal of Request
for Administrative Review,'' dated October 15, 2019 (Petitioner and
Endura Withdrawal Request).
\3\ See Memoranda, ``Aluminum Extrusions from the People's
Republic of China: Extension of Deadline for Preliminary Results of
Countervailing Duty Administrative Review,'' dated January 27, 2020;
and ``Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic of China:
Extension of Deadline for Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty
Administrative Review; 2018,'' dated February 6, 2020.
\4\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews in Response to
Operational Adjustments Due to COVID-19,'' dated April 24, 2020.
Commerce's practice dictates that where a deadline falls on a
weekend or federal holiday, the appropriate deadline is the next
business day. See Notice of Clarification: Application of ``Next
Business Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines
Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10,
2005). Because the 50-day extension would result in the signature
date being on a weekend, the deadline moves to the next business
day, Monday, July 20, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For a complete description of the events that followed the
initiation of this review, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum,
which is dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this
notice.\5\ A list of topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is included as Appendix I to this notice. The Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is a public
[[Page 47350]]
document and is on file 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; this memorandum is available to all parties in the
Central Records Unit, room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce
building. In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed and electronic versions of the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum are identical in content.

description of the scope of the order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For
purposes of this review, Commerce preliminarily finds that all programs
previously countervailed in prior segments of this proceeding, remain
countervailable--that is, they provide a financial contribution within
the meaning of sections 771(5)(B)(i) and (D) of the Act, confer a
benefit within the meaning of section 771(5)(B) of the Act, and are
specific within the meaning of 771(5A) of the Act.
For a full description of the methodology underlying our
preliminary conclusions, including our reliance on adverse facts
available pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum. As explained in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum, Commerce relied on adverse facts available because
the Government of China (GOC) and seven of the nine companies that
remain under review (i.e., Activa, CRRC, Guangdong Xingfa, Precision
Metal, Shenyang Yuanda, Summit, Wenzhou Yongtai) did not act to the
best of their ability in responding to Commerce's requests for
information, and consequently, we have drawn an adverse inference,
where appropriate, in selecting from among the facts otherwise
available.\7\ For further information, see ``Use of Facts Otherwise
Available and Adverse Inferences'' in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the other two companies (i.e., Changzhou Tenglong and Dongguan
Aoda), we preliminarily assigned a rate based on the average of the
most recently determined rates in a prior segment of this proceeding
that are not zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts available.\8\
For further information, see ``Non-Selected Company Rates'' in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Final Results and Partial Rescission of Countervailing Duty
Administrative Review; 2014, 81 FR 92778 (December 20, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intent to Rescind Review, In Part
For those companies named in the Initiation Notice for which all
review requests have been timely withdrawn,\9\ we intend to rescind
this administrative review in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
These companies are listed at Appendix II to this notice. For these
companies, Commerce intends to assess duties at rates equal to the cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties required at the time of
entry, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, during the POR, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preliminary Results
Commerce preliminarily determines that the following estimated
countervailable subsidy rates exist: \10\

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4)(i), we preliminarily
assigned subsidy rates in the amounts shown above for the producer/
exporters shown above. Upon completion of the administrative review,
consistent with section 751(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2),
Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, countervailing duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review. We intend to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15
days after publication of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce also intends
upon publication of the final results to instruct CBP to collect cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts indicated
above for each company listed on shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication of the final results of this administrative review.
For all non-reviewed firms, we intend to instruct CBP to collect cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the most recent company-
specific or all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate.
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the preliminary results of review 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). However, we have assigned
a net subsidy rate based on total adverse facts available to the seven
companies for which requests for review were not withdrawn (each failed
to submit a response to Commerce's quantity and value (Q&V)
questionnaire), in accordance with section 776 of the Act. For
information detailing the derivation of the adverse facts available
(AFA) rate applied, see AFA Calculation Memorandum.\11\
