Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet
From the Sultanate of Oman: Notice of
Initiation of Changed Circumstances
Review and Consideration of
Revocation of the Antidumping Duty
Order
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: Based on a request from
Advanced Extrusion, Inc., Good Natured
Products, IL dba Ex-Tech Inc., and
Multi-Plastics Extrusions, Inc.
(collectively, the petitioners), the U.S.
Department of Commerce (Commerce) is
initiating a changed circumstances
review (CCR) to consider the possible
revocation of the antidumping duty
(AD) order on polyethylene
terephthalate (PET) sheet from the
Sultanate of Oman (Oman).
DATES: Applicable November 18, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On September 10, 2020, Commerce
published an AD order on PET sheet
from Oman.1 On October 26, 2022, the
petitioners (i.e., domestic producers of
subject merchandise) requested, through
a CCR, the revocation of the Order
pursuant to section 751(b)(1)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.222(g)(1).2
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the
Order is raw, pretreated, or primed

Republic of Korea and the Sultanate of Oman:
Antidumping Duty Orders, 85 FR 55824 (September
10, 2020) (Order).

Interest’’ Changed Circumstances Review and
Revocation of the Order,’’ dated October 26, 2022.

polyethylene terephthalate sheet,
whether extruded or coextruded, in
nominal thicknesses of equal to or
greater than 7 mil (0.007 inches or 177.8
mm) and not exceeding 45 mil (0.045
inches or 1143 mm) (PET sheet). The
scope includes all PET sheet whether
made from prime (virgin) inputs or
recycled inputs, as well as any blends
thereof. The scope includes all PET
sheet meeting the above specifications
regardless of width, color, surface
treatment, coating, lamination, or other
surface finish.
The merchandise subject to the Order
is properly classified under statistical
reporting subheading 3920.62.0090 of
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). Although the
HTSUS subheading is provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope is
dispositive.
Initiation of CCR and Consideration of
Revocation of the Order
Pursuant to section 751(b) of the Act,
Commerce will conduct a CCR upon
receipt of a request from an interested
party 3 that shows changed
circumstances sufficient to warrant a
review of the order. In accordance with
19 CFR 351.216(d), Commerce
determines that the information
submitted by the petitioners, i.e., their
statement of no interest in the continued
maintenance of the Order, constitutes a
sufficient basis to conduct a CCR of the
Order.
Section 782(h)(2) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.222(g)(1)(i) provide that
Commerce may revoke an order (in
whole or in part) if it determines that
producers accounting for substantially
all of the production of the domestic
like product have expressed a lack of
interest in the order, in whole or in part.
In its administrative practice, Commerce
has interpreted ‘‘substantially all’’ to
mean producers accounting for at least
85 percent of the total U.S. production
of the domestic like product covered by
the order.4
The petitioners stated that they were
the sole petitioners in the original
investigation, but that they did not
3 The petitioners reported, in their request for a
CCR, that they are U.S.-based producers of PET
sheet. As such, the petitioners are an interested
party within the meaning of section 771(9)(C) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.102(b)(29)(v).
