SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background
Commerce is conducting an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on multilayered
wood flooring (MLWF) from the
People’s Republic of China (China).1

Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 85 FR

Jkt 253001
The POR is December 1, 2018, through
November 30, 2019. The review covers
95 companies, including mandatory
respondents, Jinlong 2 and Jiangsu
Senmao Bamboo and Wood Industry
Co., Ltd. (Senmao). We preliminarily
determine that sales of subject
merchandise by Senmao have not been
made at prices below NV and that
Jinlong is not eligible for a separate rate.
In addition, we are preliminarily
granting separate rates to Senmao and
34 producers/exporters, and determine
that 20 producers/exporters made no
shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR. Finally, we are
rescinding the review with respect to
four producers/exporters.
For events that occurred since the
Initiation Notice and analysis behind
our preliminary results herein, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.3
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).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a
complete version of the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum can be accessed

discussed in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is included as Appendix
I to this notice.
Scope of the Order 4
The product covered by the Order is
MLWF from China. For a complete
description of the scope of this
administrative review, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Dalian Qianqiu Wooden Product Co., Ltd.; Fusong
Jinlong Wooden Group Co., Ltd.; Fusong Jinqiu
Wooden Product Co., Ltd.; and Fusong Qianqiu

Partial Rescission of Review
Commerce initiated a review of 95
companies in this review.5 On May 6,
2020, AHF, LLC (AHF) timely withdrew
its request for review with respect to 90
companies.6 Of these companies, no
other parties requested a review of
Dalian Deerfu Wooden Product Co., Ltd.
(Deerfu); Dunhua City Wanrong Wood
Industry Co., Ltd. (Wanrong); Jilin
Forest Industry Jinqiao Flooring Group
Co., Ltd. (Jilin Forest); and Lauzon
Distinctive Hardwood Flooring, Inc.
(Lauzon). However, other parties,
including the American Manufacturers
of Multilayered Wood Flooring (the
petitioner), requested a review with
respect to the remaining companies
named in AHF’s review request.7
Accordingly, Commerce is rescinding
the administrative review only with
respect to Deerfu, Wanrong, Jilin Forest,
and Lauzon.8
Preliminary Determination of No
Shipments
Based on an analysis of information
from U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP), no shipment
certifications, and other record
information, we preliminarily determine
that 20 companies had no shipments of
subject merchandise during the POR.9
Consistent with our practice in nonmarket economy (NME) cases, we are
not rescinding this review with respect
to these companies but, rather, intend to
complete the review and issue
appropriate instructions to CBP based
on the final results of the review.10
Separate Rates
We preliminarily determine that, in
addition to Senmao, 34 companies not
individually-examined are eligible for
separate rates in this administrative
review.11 The Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act) and Commerce’s
regulations do not address the
5 See
Initiation Notice.

establishment of a separate rate to be
applied to companies not selected for
individual examination when
Commerce limits its examination in an
administrative review pursuant to
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally,
Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of
the Act, which provides instructions for
calculating the all-others rate in an
investigation, for guidance when
calculating the rate for separate-rate
respondents which Commerce did not
examine individually in an
administrative review. For the
preliminary results of this review,
Commerce has determined the
estimated dumping margin for Senmao
to be zero.12 For the reasons explained
in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum, we are assigning this rate
to the non-examined respondents which
qualify for a separate rate in this review.
The China-Wide Entity
Commerce’s policy regarding
conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative
review.13 Under this policy, the Chinawide entity will not be under review
unless a party specifically requests, or
Commerce self-initiates, a review of the
entity. Because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity, the
entity is not under review, and the
entity’s rate is not subject to change.
Commerce selected Jinlong as one of
two mandatory respondents in this
administrative review.14 Jinlong then
notified Commerce that it did not intend
to participate in the review.15 Because
Jinlong did not respond to the
questionnaire, it has not established its
eligibility for a separate rate, and is
considered to be part of the China-wide
entity. See the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum for further discussion.
Aside from the companies for which
we preliminarily find no shipments and
those companies for which the review is
being rescinded, Commerce considers
all other companies for which a review
was requested and did not demonstrate
separate rate eligibility to be part of the
12 See Memorandum, ‘‘Preliminary Results
Margin Calculation for Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and
Wood Industry Co., Ltd.,’’ dated concurrently with
this notice.

China-wide entity.16 For the
preliminary results of this review, we
consider 36 companies, including
Jinlong, to be part of the China-wide
entity.
Preliminary Results of Successor-inInterest Analysis
Separate rate applicant Arte Mundi
reported that during the POR, it changed
its English name from Scholar Home to
Arte Mundi.17 Based on our analysis of
the information on the record regarding
any changes with respect to corporate
structure, manufacturing facilities,
customers and suppliers, we
preliminarily determine that Arte
Mundi is the the successor-in-interest to
Scholar Home and, as a result, should
be accorded the same treatment
previously accorded to Scholar Home.
See the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum for further information.
Methodology
We are conducting this administrative
review in accordance with sections
751(a)(1)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213. We calculated export prices for
Senmao in accordance with section
772(a) of the Act. Because China is an
NME within the meaning of section
771(18) of the Act, we calculated NV in
accordance with section 773(c) of the
Act.
Preliminary Results of Review
We preliminarily determine that the
following weighted-average dumping
margins exist for the POR December 1,
2018, through November 30, 2019:
16 See Initiation Notice (‘‘All firms listed below
that wish to qualify for separate rate status in the
administrative reviews involving NME countries
must complete, as appropriate, either a separate rate
application or certification, as described below.’’)
Companies that are subject to this administrative
review that are considered to be part of the Chinawide entity are listed in Appendix II.
17 See Arte Mundi’s Letter, ‘‘Separate Rate
Application for Scholar Home/Arte Mundi in the
Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty
Order on Multilayered Wood Flooring from the
People’s Republic of China (A–570–970) (POR: 12/

Home was granted a separate rate in the previous

preliminary results in the Federal

Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results,
Commerce will determine, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b). Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 35 days
after the publication of the final results
of this review.
For any individually examined
respondent whose (estimated) ad
valorem weighted-average dumping
margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e.,
less than 0.50 percent) in the final
results of this review, Commerce will
calculate importer-specific assessment
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for the
importer’s examined sales and the total
quantity of those sales, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).22 Commerce
will also calculate (estimated) ad
valorem importer-specific assessment
rates with which to assess whether the
per-unit assessment rate is de minimis.
We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review when the
importer-specific ad valorem
assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is not zero or de
minimis.
For the respondents that were not
selected for individual examination in
this administrative review that qualified
for a separate rate, the assessment rate
will be the separate rate established in
the final results of this administrative
review.
If, in the final results, Senmao’s
weighted-average dumping margin
continues to be zero or de minimis (i.e.,
less than 0.5 percent), Commerce will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties.23 For entries that were not
reported in the U.S. sales databases
submitted by Senmao during this
review, and for the 36 companies that
do not qualify for a separate rate
(including Jinlong), Commerce will
instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at
the China-wide rate (i.e., 85.13

percent).24 In addition, if we continue to
find no shipments of subject
merchandise for the 20 companies for
which we preliminarily find no such
shipments during the POR,25 any
suspended entries of subject
merchandise associated with those
companies will be liquidated at the
China-wide rate.26
For the companies for which the
administrative review is rescinded,
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). We intend to issue
appropriate assessment instructions
with respect to the companies for which
this administrative review is rescinded
to CBP 35 days after the publication of
this notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
review for all shipments of the subject
merchandise from China entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the
companies listed above that have a
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will
be that rate established in the final
results of this review (except, if the rate
is de minimis, then a cash deposit rate
of zero will be required); (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed
Chinese and non-Chinese exporters for
which a review was not requested and
that received a separate rate in a prior
segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for all
Chinese exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found
to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be the rate for the
China-wide entity (i.e., 85.13 percent);
and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of
subject merchandise that have not
received their own rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to
Chinese exporter that supplied that nonChinese exporter. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a
preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping and/
or countervailing duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping and/or
countervailing duties occurred and the
subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing the
preliminary results of this review in
accordance with sections 751(a)(l) and
777(i)(l) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Commerce is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping
duty order on multilayered wood flooring (MLWF) from the People's
Republic of China (China).\1\ The POR is December 1, 2018, through
November 30, 2019. The review covers 95 companies, including mandatory
respondents, Jinlong \2\ and Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and Wood Industry
Co., Ltd. (Senmao). We preliminarily determine that sales of subject
merchandise by Senmao have not been made at prices below NV and that
Jinlong is not eligible for a separate rate. In addition, we are
preliminarily granting separate rates to Senmao and 34 producers/
exporters, and determine that 20 producers/exporters made no shipments
of subject merchandise during the POR. Finally, we are rescinding the
review with respect to four producers/exporters.

(collectively, Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The product covered by the Order is MLWF from China. For a complete
description of the scope of this administrative review, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Partial Rescission of Review
Commerce initiated a review of 95 companies in this review.\5\ On
May 6, 2020, AHF, LLC (AHF) timely withdrew its request for review with
respect to 90 companies.\6\ Of these companies, no other parties
requested a review of Dalian Deerfu Wooden Product Co., Ltd. (Deerfu);
Dunhua City Wanrong Wood Industry Co., Ltd. (Wanrong); Jilin Forest
Industry Jinqiao Flooring Group Co., Ltd. (Jilin Forest); and Lauzon
Distinctive Hardwood Flooring, Inc. (Lauzon). However, other parties,
including the American Manufacturers of Multilayered Wood Flooring (the
petitioner), requested a review with respect to the remaining companies
named in AHF's review request.\7\ Accordingly, Commerce is rescinding
the administrative review only with respect to Deerfu, Wanrong, Jilin
Forest, and Lauzon.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Initiation Notice.
\6\ See AHF's Letter, ``Multilayered Wood Flooring from the
People's Republic of China: Withdrawal of Request for Review--2018-
19 AD Review Period,'' dated May 6, 2020.

from the People's Republic of China: Request for Administrative
Review''; and CDC Distributors, Inc.'s Letter, ``Multilayered Wood
Flooring from the People's Republic of China: Request for
Administrative Reviews,'' both dated December 31, 2019.
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preliminary Determination of No Shipments
Based on an analysis of information from U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP), no shipment certifications, and other record
information, we preliminarily determine that 20 companies had no
shipments of subject merchandise during the POR.\9\ Consistent with our
practice in non-market economy (NME) cases, we are not rescinding this
review with respect to these companies but, rather, intend to complete
the review and issue appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final
results of the review.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Appendix II for a list of these companies.
\10\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694, 65694-95 (October 24, 2011) (NME
AD Assessment); see also the ``Assessment Rates'' section, below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Rates
We preliminarily determine that, in addition to Senmao, 34
companies not individually-examined are eligible for separate rates in
this administrative review.\11\ The Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act) and Commerce's regulations do not address the
[[Page 22017]]
establishment of a separate rate to be applied to companies not
selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its
examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2)
of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act,
which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an
investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for separate-rate
respondents which Commerce did not examine individually in an
administrative review. For the preliminary results of this review,
Commerce has determined the estimated dumping margin for Senmao to be
zero.\12\ For the reasons explained in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum, we are assigning this rate to the non-examined respondents
which qualify for a separate rate in this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at the ``Separate Rate
Determinations'' section for more details.
\12\ See Memorandum, ``Preliminary Results Margin Calculation
for Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and Wood Industry Co., Ltd.,'' dated
concurrently with this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The China-Wide Entity
Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative review.\13\ Under this policy,
the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party
specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the
entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity,
the entity is not under review, and the entity's rate is not subject to
change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in
Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity
in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963 (November 4, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce selected Jinlong as one of two mandatory respondents in
this administrative review.\14\ Jinlong then notified Commerce that it
did not intend to participate in the review.\15\ Because Jinlong did
not respond to the questionnaire, it has not established its
eligibility for a separate rate, and is considered to be part of the
China-wide entity. See the Preliminary Decision Memorandum for further
discussion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ See Memorandum, ``Antidumping Administrative Review of
Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's Republic of China:
Respondent Selection,'' dated March 19, 2020.
\15\ See Jinlong's Letter, ``Multilayered Wood Flooring from
China: Jinlong Notice of Intent Not to Participate,'' dated April
14, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aside from the companies for which we preliminarily find no
shipments and those companies for which the review is being rescinded,
Commerce considers all other companies for which a review was requested
and did not demonstrate separate rate eligibility to be part of the
China-wide entity.\16\ For the preliminary results of this review, we
consider 36 companies, including Jinlong, to be part of the China-wide
entity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ See Initiation Notice (``All firms listed below that wish
to qualify for separate rate status in the administrative reviews
involving NME countries must complete, as appropriate, either a
separate rate application or certification, as described below.'')
Companies that are subject to this administrative review that are
considered to be part of the China-wide entity are listed in
Appendix II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preliminary Results of Successor-in-Interest Analysis
Separate rate applicant Arte Mundi reported that during the POR, it
changed its English name from Scholar Home to Arte Mundi.\17\ Based on
our analysis of the information on the record regarding any changes
with respect to corporate structure, manufacturing facilities,
customers and suppliers, we preliminarily determine that Arte Mundi is
the the successor-in-interest to Scholar Home and, as a result, should
be accorded the same treatment previously accorded to Scholar Home. See
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum for further information.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\17\ See Arte Mundi's Letter, ``Separate Rate Application for
Scholar Home/Arte Mundi in the Administrative Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order on Multilayered Wood Flooring from the
People's Republic of China (A-570-970) (POR: 12/1/18-11/30/19),''
dated March 30, 2020. Scholar Home was granted a separate rate in
the previous administrative review of this Order. See Multilayered
Wood Flooring from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary
Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and New

and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Methodology
We are conducting this administrative review in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213. We calculated
export prices for Senmao in accordance with section 772(a) of the Act.
Because China is an NME within the meaning of section 771(18) of the
Act, we calculated NV in accordance with section 773(c) of the Act.
Preliminary Results of Review
We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average
dumping margins exist for the POR December 1, 2018, through November
30, 2019:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to disclose to interested parties the calculations
performed for these preliminary results within five days of the date of
publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Interested parties may submit case briefs no later than 30 days after
the date of publication of these preliminary results of review.\19\
Rebuttals to case briefs may be filed no later than seven days after
the case briefs are filed, and all rebuttal comments must be limited to
comments raised in the case briefs.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\19\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c).
\20\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), parties who submit
case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this review 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 further notice.\21\
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 the party's
name, address, and telephone number, the number of participants,
whether any participant is a foreign national, and a list of the issues
to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is made, Commerce intends
to hold the hearing at a time and date to be determined. Parties should
confirm by telephone the date, time, and location of the hearing two
days before the scheduled date.

Due to COVID-19; Extension of Effective Period, 85 FR 41363 (July

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless otherwise extended, we intend to issue the final results of
this administrative review, which will include the results of our
analysis of the issues raised in the case briefs, within
[[Page 22018]]
120 days of publication of these preliminary results in the Federal
Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213(h).
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b). Commerce intends
to issue assessment instructions to CBP 35 days after the publication
of the final results of this review.
For any individually examined respondent whose (estimated) ad
valorem weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis
(i.e., less than 0.50 percent) in the final results of this review,
Commerce will calculate importer-specific assessment rates on the basis
of the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the
importer's examined sales and the total quantity of those sales, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\22\ Commerce will also calculate
(estimated) ad valorem importer-specific assessment rates with which to
assess whether the per-unit assessment rate is de minimis. We will
instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries
covered by this review when the importer-specific ad valorem assessment
rate calculated in the final results of this review is not zero or de
minimis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\22\ In these preliminary results, Commerce applied the
assessment rate calculation method adopted in Antidumping
Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and
Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final
Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the respondents that were not selected for individual
examination in this administrative review that qualified for a separate
rate, the assessment rate will be the separate rate established in the
final results of this administrative review.
If, in the final results, Senmao's weighted-average dumping margin
continues to be zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent),
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.\23\ For entries that were not reported in
the U.S. sales databases submitted by Senmao during this review, and
for the 36 companies that do not qualify for a separate rate (including
Jinlong), Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the
China-wide rate (i.e., 85.13 percent).\24\ In addition, if we continue
to find no shipments of subject merchandise for the 20 companies for
which we preliminarily find no such shipments during the POR,\25\ any
suspended entries of subject merchandise associated with those
companies will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.\26\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\23\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
\24\ See Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's Republic
of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

\26\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694, 65695 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies for which the administrative review is rescinded,
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). We intend to issue appropriate assessment
instructions with respect to the companies for which this
administrative review is rescinded to CBP 35 days after the publication
of this notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this review for all shipments of
the subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as
provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the companies
listed above that have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be
that rate established in the final results of this review (except, if
the rate is de minimis, then a cash deposit rate of zero will be
required); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-
Chinese exporters for which a review was not requested and that
received a separate rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific
rate; (3) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have
not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 85.13 percent); and
(4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not
received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate
applicable to Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese exporter.
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period.
Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping
duties.
We are issuing and publishing the preliminary results of this
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(l) and 777(i)(l) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
