Background On September 1, 2020, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the AD order on NWR from Taiwan.1 On September 30, 2020, Commerce received a timely request, in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), from Berwick Offray LLC (the petitioner) to conduct an administrative review of the AD order on NWR from Taiwan with respect to Maple Ribbon Co., Ltd. (Maple Ribbon).2 On October 30, 2020, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the AD order on NWR from 1 See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 85 FR 54349 (September 1, 2020). 2 See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Narrow Woven Ribbons with Woven Selvedge from Taiwan/Petitioner’s Request for Administrative Review,’’ dated September 30, 2020.

As noted above, the petitioner timely withdrew its request for review within the 90-day period. Because no other party requested a review of the AD order, we are rescinding this administrative review of the AD order on NWR from Taiwan for the POR in its entirety, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). Assessment Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of NWR from Taiwan during the POR at rates equal to the cash deposit rates for estimated antidumping duties that were required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i).

emulsion styrene-butadiene rubber (ESB rubber) from Brazil, covering 
ARLANXEO Brasil for the period of review (POR) September 1, 2019, 
through August 31, 2020.\1\ On November 19, 2020, Commerce issued the

Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by this review is certain ESB rubber from 
Brazil. For a full description of the scope see the Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum.

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1)(B) and (2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). 
Commerce is preliminarily relying upon facts otherwise available to 
determine a weighted-average dumping margin for ARLANXEO Brasil in this 
review. Commerce preliminarily finds that necessary information is not 
available on the record, and that ARLANXEO Brasil withheld information 
requested by Commerce, failed to provide the requested information in 
the form and manner requested, and significantly impeded the 
proceeding, warranting a determination on the basis of the facts 
available under sections 776(a)(1) and (2)(A)-(C) of the Act. Further, 
Commerce preliminarily determines that ARLANXEO Brasil failed to 
cooperate to the best of its ability, and thus, Commerce is applying 
AFA in determining a margin for ARLANXEO Brasil, in accordance with 
section 776(b) of the Act. For a full description of the methodology 
underlying our conclusions regarding the application of AFA, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Preliminary Results of the Administrative Review

    We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average 
dumping margin exists for the period September 1, 2019 through August 
31, 2020:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
ARLANXEO Brasil S.A........................................       67.99
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rate

    Upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce shall 
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. 
The final results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment 
of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final 
results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, 
where applicable.\4\ If the preliminary results are unchanged for the 
final results, we will instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment 
rate equal to ARLANXEO Brasil's weighted-average dumping margin in the 
final results of this review to all entries of subject merchandise 
during the POR from ARLANXEO Brasil.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier 
than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this 
review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at the 
U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will 
direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties 
to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 
90 days of publication).

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the 
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for ARLANXEO Brasil 
will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the 
final results of this review, except if the rate is less than 0.50 
percent and, therefore, de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 
351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) 
for previously investigated or reviewed companies not subject to this 
review, the cash deposit will continue to be the company-specific rate 
published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding in 
which the company participated; (3) if the exporter is not a firm 
covered in this or a previously completed review, or in the original 
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the producer is, the 
cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent 
segment for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 
rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 19.61 
percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\5\ 
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect 
until further notice.

    Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative 
review, including the results of its analysis of the issues raised in 
any written briefs, not later than 120 days after the date of 
publication of these preliminary results in the Federal Register, 
pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, unless extended.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a preliminary 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 POR. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement 
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    Commerce is issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

    Dated: June 2, 2021.
Christian Marsh,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
