Oil Country Tubular Goods From
Ukraine: Notice of Amended Final
Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review Pursuant to
Settlement
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of
Commerce (Commerce) is issuing these
amended final results pursuant to a
settlement agreement with Interpipe
Ukraine LLC and North American
Interpipe Inc. with respect to the final
results of the administrative review of
oil country tubular goods (OCTG) from
Ukraine during the period of review
(POR) July 10, 2019, through June 30,
2020.
DATES: Applicable May 8, 2024.

Background
On February 10, 2022, the Department
of Commerce (Commerce) published the
final results of its administrative review
of the antidumping duty order on OCTG
from Ukraine.1 The POR is July 10, 2019
through June 30, 2020.
The administrative review covers
Interpipe,2 a producer and exporter of
OCTG from Ukraine to the United
States. In the Final Results, Commerce
assigned to Interpipe a weighted-average
dumping margin of 27.80 percent for the
POR.3
Following the publication of the Final
Results, Interpipe filed a lawsuit with
the U.S. Court of International Trade
(CIT) challenging certain aspects of
Commerce’s Final Results including
Commerce’s decision not to grant a
constructed export price offset to
Interpipe and Commerce’s decision to
include Section 232 duties in the U.S.
price when calculating the margin.
On April 30, 2024, the United States
and Interpipe entered into an agreement
to settle this dispute. Pursuant to the
terms of settlement and the stipulation
for entry of judgment, the amended final
weighted-average dumping margin for
Interpipe is 0.01 percent. The CIT
issued its order of judgment by
stipulation on May 2, 2024.4
Assessment Rates
Consistent with the settlement
agreement and May 2, 2024, order of
judgment by stipulation, Commerce will
instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to liquidate all
unliquidated entries of OCTG from
Ukraine produced and exported by
Interpipe, and entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption in the
United States during the POR at the
importer-specific per-unit assessment
rates determined by setting Interpipe’s
weighted-average dumping margin at
0.01 percent (de minimis). Pursuant to
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of
38867
1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has
determined, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise in
accordance with these revised final
results of review.5 For Interpipe, we will
calculate importer-specific assessment
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total
amount of antidumping duties
calculated for each importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of the
sales, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1). Because Interpipe’s
weighted average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis within the meaning
of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), we will instruct
CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
Consistent with Commerce’s
assessment practice, for entries of
subject merchandise during the POR
produced by Interpipe for which it did
not know that the merchandise was
destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate if there is no
rate for the intermediate company(ies)
involved in the transaction.6
Cash Deposit Requirements
Because Interpipe has a superseding
cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been
final results published in a subsequent
administrative review, we will not issue
revised cash deposit instructions to
CBP. This notice will not affect the
current cash deposit rate for Interpipe.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing this determination and
publishing these amended final results
and notice in accordance with section
516a(e) of the Act.
Dated: May 2, 2024.
Ryan Majerus,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and
Negotiations, performing the non-exclusive
functions and duties of the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.

The U.S. Department of
Commerce (Commerce) has received
requests to conduct administrative
reviews of various antidumping duty
(AD) and countervailing duty (CVD)
orders with March anniversary dates. In
accordance with Commerce’s
regulations, we are initiating those
administrative reviews.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
Commerce has received timely
requests, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b), for administrative reviews of
various AD and CVD orders with March
anniversary dates.
All deadlines for the submission of
various types of information,
certifications, or comments or actions by
Commerce discussed below refer to the
number of calendar days from the
applicable starting time.
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Respondent Selection
In the event that Commerce limits the
number of respondents for individual
examination for administrative reviews
initiated pursuant to requests made for
the orders identified below, Commerce
intends to select respondents based on
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) data for U.S. imports during the
period of review (POR). We intend to
place the CBP data on the record within
five days of publication of the initiation
notice and to make our decision
regarding respondent selection within
35 days of publication of the initiation
Federal Register notice. Comments
regarding the CBP data and respondent
selection should be submitted within
seven days after the placement of the
CBP data on the record of this review.
Parties wishing to submit rebuttal
comments should submit those
comments within five days after the
deadline for the initial comments.
In the event that Commerce decides it
is necessary to limit individual
examination of respondents and
conduct respondent selection under
section 777A(c)(2) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), the
following guidelines regarding
collapsing of companies for purposes of
respondent selection will apply. In
general, Commerce has found that
determinations concerning whether
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:03 May 07, 2024
Jkt 262001
particular companies should be
‘‘collapsed’’ (e.g., treated as a single
entity for purposes of calculating AD
rates) require a substantial amount of
detailed information and analysis,
which often require follow-up questions
and analysis. Accordingly, Commerce
will not conduct collapsing analyses at
the respondent selection phase of this
review and will not collapse companies
at the respondent selection phase unless
there has been a determination to
collapse certain companies in a
previous segment of this AD proceeding
(e.g., investigation, administrative
review, new shipper review, or changed
circumstances review). For any
company subject to this review, if
Commerce determined, or continued to
treat, that company as collapsed with
others, Commerce will assume that such
companies continue to operate in the
same manner and will collapse them for
respondent selection purposes.
Otherwise, Commerce will not collapse
companies for purposes of respondent
selection.
Parties are requested to (a) identify
which companies subject to review
previously were collapsed, and (b)
provide a citation to the proceeding in
which they were collapsed. Further, if
companies are requested to complete
the Quantity and Value (Q&V)
Questionnaire for purposes of
respondent selection, in general, each
company must report volume and value
data separately for itself. Parties should
not include data for any other party,
even if they believe they should be
treated as a single entity with that other
party. If a company was collapsed with
another company or companies in the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding where Commerce
considered collapsing that entity,
complete Q&V data for that collapsed
entity must be submitted.
Notice of No Sales
With respect to AD administrative
reviews, we intend to rescind the review
where there are no suspended entries
for a company or entity under review
and/or where there are no suspended
entries under the company-specific case
number for that company or entity.
Where there may be suspended entries,
if a producer or exporter named in this
notice of initiation had no exports,
sales, or entries during the POR, it may
notify Commerce of this fact within 30
days of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register for Commerce to
consider how to treat suspended entries
under that producer’s or exporter’s
company-specific case number.

Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for
Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a
party that has requested a review may
withdraw that request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. The
regulation provides that Commerce may
extend this time if it is reasonable to do
so. Determinations by Commerce to
extend the 90-day deadline will be
made on a case-by-case basis.
Deadline for Particular Market
Situation Allegation
Section 504 of the Trade Preferences
Extension Act of 2015 amended the Act
by adding the concept of a particular
market situation (PMS) for purposes of
constructed value under section 773(e)
of the Act.1 Section 773(e) of the Act
states that ‘‘if a particular market
situation exists such that the cost of
materials and fabrication or other
processing of any kind does not
accurately reflect the cost of production
in the ordinary course of trade, the
administering authority may use
another calculation methodology under
this subtitle or any other calculation
methodology.’’ When an interested
party submits a PMS allegation pursuant
to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce
will respond to such a submission
consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v).
If Commerce finds that a PMS exists
under section 773(e) of the Act, then it
will modify its dumping calculations
appropriately.
Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor
19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a deadline
for the submission of PMS allegations
and supporting factual information.
However, in order to administer section
773(e) of the Act, Commerce must
receive PMS allegations and supporting
factual information with enough time to
consider the submission. Thus, should
an interested party wish to submit a
PMS allegation and supporting new
factual information pursuant to section
773(e) of the Act, it must do so no later
than 20 days after submission of initial
responses to section D of the
questionnaire.
Separate Rates
In proceedings involving non-market
economy (NME) countries, Commerce
begins with a rebuttable presumption
that all companies within the country
are subject to government control and,
thus, should be assigned a single AD
deposit rate. It is Commerce’s policy to
assign all exporters of merchandise
subject to an administrative review in
1 See Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015,
Public Law 114–27, 129 Stat. 362 (2015).
E:\FR\FM\08MYN1.SGM
08MYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 90 / Wednesday, May 8, 2024 / Notices
an NME country this single rate unless
an exporter can demonstrate that it is
sufficiently independent so as to be
entitled to a separate rate.
To establish whether a firm is
sufficiently independent from
government control of its export
activities to be entitled to a separate
rate, Commerce analyzes each entity
exporting the subject merchandise. In
accordance with the separate rates
criteria, Commerce assigns separate
rates to companies in NME cases only
if respondents can demonstrate the
absence of both de jure and de facto
government control over export
activities.
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.
For these administrative reviews, in
order to demonstrate separate rate
eligibility, Commerce requires entities
for whom a review was requested, that
were assigned a separate rate in the
most recent segment of this proceeding
in which they participated, to certify
that they continue to meet the criteria
for obtaining a separate rate. The
Separate Rate Certification form will be
available on Commerce’s website at
https://access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/
nme-sep-rate.html on the date of
publication of this Federal Register
notice. In responding to the
certification, please follow the
‘‘Instructions for Filing the
Certification’’ in the Separate Rate
Certification. Separate Rate
Certifications are due to Commerce no
later than 30 calendar days after
publication of this Federal Register
notice. The deadline and requirement
for submitting a Separate Rate
Certification applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned
firms, and foreign sellers who purchase
and export subject merchandise to the
United States.
Entities that currently do not have a
separate rate from a completed segment
of the proceeding 2 should timely file a
Separate Rate Application to
demonstrate eligibility for a separate
rate in this proceeding. In addition,
companies that received a separate rate
in a completed segment of the
proceeding that have subsequently
made changes, including, but not
limited to, changes to corporate
structure, acquisitions of new
companies or facilities, or changes to
their official company name,3 should
timely file a Separate Rate Application
to demonstrate eligibility for a separate
rate in this proceeding. The Separate
Rate Application will be available on
Commerce’s website at https://
38869
access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nmesep-rate.html on the date of publication
of this Federal Register notice. In
responding to the Separate Rate
Application, refer to the instructions
contained in the application. Separate
Rate Applications are due to Commerce
no later than 30 calendar days after
publication of this Federal Register
notice. The deadline and requirement
for submitting a Separate Rate
Application applies equally to NMEowned firms, wholly foreign-owned
firms, and foreign sellers that purchase
and export subject merchandise to the
United States.
Exporters and producers must file a
timely Separate Rate Application or
Certification if they want to be
considered for individual examination.
Furthermore, exporters and producers
who submit a Separate Rate Application
or Certification and subsequently are
selected as mandatory respondents will
no longer be eligible for separate rate
status unless they respond to all parts of
the questionnaire as mandatory
respondents.
Initiation of Reviews
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating
administrative reviews of the following
AD and CVD orders and findings. We
intend to issue the final results of these
reviews not later than March 31, 2025.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Extension of Time Limits Regulation
[RTID 0648–XD937]
Parties may request an extension of
time limits before a time limit
established under Part 351 expires, or as
otherwise specified by Commerce.11 In
general, an extension request will be
considered untimely if it is filed after
the time limit established under Part
351 expires. For submissions which are
due from multiple parties
simultaneously, an extension request
will be considered untimely if it is filed
after 10:00 a.m. on the due date.
Examples include, but are not limited
to: (1) case and rebuttal briefs, filed
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; (2) factual
information to value factors under 19
CFR 351.408(c), or to measure the
adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR
351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, clarification
and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments
concerning the selection of a surrogate
country and surrogate values and
rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP
data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under
certain circumstances, Commerce may
elect to specify a different time limit by
which extension requests will be
considered untimely for submissions
which are due from multiple parties
simultaneously. In such a case,
Commerce will inform parties in the
letter or memorandum setting forth the
deadline (including a specified time) by
which extension requests must be filed
to be considered timely. This policy also
requires that an extension request must
be made in a separate, stand-alone
submission, and clarifies the
circumstances under which Commerce
will grant untimely-filed requests for the
extension of time limits. Please review

ACTION: Notice of initiation; request for
information.
AGENCY:
NMFS announces the
initiation of a 5-year review for the nonU.S. distinct population segment (DPS)
of smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata).
NMFS is required by the Endangered
Species Act (ESA) to conduct 5-year
reviews to ensure that the listing
classifications of species are accurate.
The 5-year review must be based on the
best scientific and commercial data
available at the time of the review. We
request submission of any such
information on the non-U.S. DPS of
smalltooth sawfish, particularly
information on the status, threats, and
recovery of the species, that has become
available since it was listed in 2015.
DATES: To allow us adequate time to
conduct this review, we must receive
your information no later than July 8,
2024.
SUMMARY:
You may submit
information on this document,
identified by NOAA–NMFS–2024–0062,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces our review of the nonU.S. DPS of smalltooth sawfish (Pristis
pectinata) listed as endangered under
the ESA. Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the ESA
requires that we conduct a review of
listed species at least once every 5 years.
This will be the first review of this
species since it was listed in 2015 under
the ESA (79 FR 73977, December 12,
2014). The regulations in 50 CFR 424.21
require that we publish a notice in the
Federal Register announcing species
currently under active review. On the
basis of such reviews under section
4(c)(2)(B), we determine whether any
species should be removed from the list
(i.e., delisted) or reclassified from
endangered to threatened or from
threatened to endangered (16 U.S.C.
1533(c)(2)(B)). As described by the
regulations in 50 CFR 424.11(e), a
species will be delisted if the Secretary
determines, based on consideration of
the factors and standards set forth in 50
CFR 424.11(c), that the best scientific
and commercial data available
substantiate that: (1) the species is
extinct; (2) the species has recovered to
the point at which it no longer meets the
definition of an endangered species or a
threatened species; (3) new information
that has become available since the
original listing decision shows the listed
entity does not meet the definition of an
endangered species or a threatened
species; or (4) new information that has
become available since the original
listing decision shows the listed entity
does not meet the definition of a
species. Any change in Federal
classification would require a separate
rulemaking process.
Background information on the
species is available on the NMFS
website at: https://
www.fisheries.noaa.gov/species/
smalltooth-sawfish.
Public Solicitation of New Information
To ensure that the review is complete
and based on the best available
scientific and commercial information,
we are soliciting new information from
the public, governmental agencies,
tribes, the scientific community,
industry, environmental entities, and
any other interested parties concerning
the status of the DPS. Categories of
requested information include: (1)
species biology including, but not
limited to, population trends,

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
International Trade Administration
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
[[Page 38868]]
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has received
requests to conduct administrative reviews of various antidumping duty
(AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders with March anniversary dates.
In accordance with Commerce's regulations, we are initiating those
administrative reviews.
DATES: Applicable May 8, 2024.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brenda E. Brown, AD/CVD Operations,
Customs Liaison Unit, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230, telephone: (202) 482-4735.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Commerce has received timely requests, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b), for administrative reviews of various AD and CVD orders
with March anniversary dates.
All deadlines for the submission of various types of information,
certifications, or comments or actions by Commerce discussed below
refer to the number of calendar days from the applicable starting time.
Respondent Selection
In the event that Commerce limits the number of respondents for
individual examination for administrative reviews initiated pursuant to
requests made for the orders identified below, Commerce intends to
select respondents based on U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
data for U.S. imports during the period of review (POR). We intend to
place the CBP data on the record within five days of publication of the
initiation notice and to make our decision regarding respondent
selection within 35 days of publication of the initiation Federal
Register notice. Comments regarding the CBP data and respondent
selection should be submitted within seven days after the placement of
the CBP data on the record of this review. Parties wishing to submit
rebuttal comments should submit those comments within five days after
the deadline for the initial comments.
In the event that Commerce decides it is necessary to limit
individual examination of respondents and conduct respondent selection
under section 777A(c)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act), the following guidelines regarding collapsing of companies for
purposes of respondent selection will apply. In general, Commerce has
found that determinations concerning whether particular companies
should be ``collapsed'' (e.g., treated as a single entity for purposes
of calculating AD rates) require a substantial amount of detailed
information and analysis, which often require follow-up questions and
analysis. Accordingly, Commerce will not conduct collapsing analyses at
the respondent selection phase of this review and will not collapse
companies at the respondent selection phase unless there has been a
determination to collapse certain companies in a previous segment of
this AD proceeding (e.g., investigation, administrative review, new
shipper review, or changed circumstances review). For any company
subject to this review, if Commerce determined, or continued to treat,
that company as collapsed with others, Commerce will assume that such
companies continue to operate in the same manner and will collapse them
for respondent selection purposes. Otherwise, Commerce will not
collapse companies for purposes of respondent selection.
Parties are requested to (a) identify which companies subject to
review previously were collapsed, and (b) provide a citation to the
proceeding in which they were collapsed. Further, if companies are
requested to complete the Quantity and Value (Q&V) Questionnaire for
purposes of respondent selection, in general, each company must report
volume and value data separately for itself. Parties should not include
data for any other party, even if they believe they should be treated
as a single entity with that other party. If a company was collapsed
with another company or companies in the most recently completed
segment of this proceeding where Commerce considered collapsing that
entity, complete Q&V data for that collapsed entity must be submitted.
Notice of No Sales
With respect to AD administrative reviews, we intend to rescind the
review where there are no suspended entries for a company or entity
under review and/or where there are no suspended entries under the
company-specific case number for that company or entity. Where there
may be suspended entries, if a producer or exporter named in this
notice of initiation had no exports, sales, or entries during the POR,
it may notify Commerce of this fact within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register for Commerce to consider how to
treat suspended entries under that producer's or exporter's company-
specific case number.
Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a party that has requested a
review may withdraw that request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. The
regulation provides that Commerce may extend this time if it is
reasonable to do so. Determinations by Commerce to extend the 90-day
deadline will be made on a case-by-case basis.
Deadline for Particular Market Situation Allegation
Section 504 of the Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015 amended
the Act by adding the concept of a particular market situation (PMS)
for purposes of constructed value under section 773(e) of the Act.\1\
Section 773(e) of the Act states that ``if a particular market
situation exists such that the cost of materials and fabrication or
other processing of any kind does not accurately reflect the cost of
production in the ordinary course of trade, the administering authority
may use another calculation methodology under this subtitle or any
other calculation methodology.'' When an interested party submits a PMS
allegation pursuant to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce will respond
to such a submission consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v). If
Commerce finds that a PMS exists under section 773(e) of the Act, then
it will modify its dumping calculations appropriately.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015, Public Law 114-
27, 129 Stat. 362 (2015).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a
deadline for the submission of PMS allegations and supporting factual
information. However, in order to administer section 773(e) of the Act,
Commerce must receive PMS allegations and supporting factual
information with enough time to consider the submission. Thus, should
an interested party wish to submit a PMS allegation and supporting new
factual information pursuant to section 773(e) of the Act, it must do
so no later than 20 days after submission of initial responses to
section D of the questionnaire.
Separate Rates
In proceedings involving non-market economy (NME) countries,
Commerce begins with a rebuttable presumption that all companies within
the country are subject to government control and, thus, should be
assigned a single AD deposit rate. It is Commerce's policy to assign
all exporters of merchandise subject to an administrative review in
[[Page 38869]]
an NME country this single rate unless an exporter can demonstrate that
it is sufficiently independent so as to be entitled to a separate rate.
To establish whether a firm is sufficiently independent from
government control of its export activities to be entitled to a
separate rate, Commerce analyzes each entity exporting the subject
merchandise. In accordance with the separate rates criteria, Commerce
assigns separate rates to companies in NME cases only if respondents
can demonstrate the absence of both de jure and de facto government
control over export activities.
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.
For these administrative reviews, in order to demonstrate separate
rate eligibility, Commerce requires entities for whom a review was
requested, that were assigned a separate rate in the most recent
segment of this proceeding in which they participated, to certify that
they continue to meet the criteria for obtaining a separate rate. The
Separate Rate Certification form will be available on Commerce's
website at https://access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nme-sep-rate.html on
the date of publication of this Federal Register notice. In responding
to the certification, please follow the ``Instructions for Filing the
Certification'' in the Separate Rate Certification. Separate Rate
Certifications are due to Commerce no later than 30 calendar days after
publication of this Federal Register notice. The deadline and
requirement for submitting a Separate Rate Certification applies
equally to NME-owned firms, wholly foreign-owned firms, and foreign
sellers who purchase and export subject merchandise to the United
States.
Entities that currently do not have a separate rate from a
completed segment of the proceeding \2\ should timely file a Separate
Rate Application to demonstrate eligibility for a separate rate in this
proceeding. In addition, companies that received a separate rate in a
completed segment of the proceeding that have subsequently made
changes, including, but not limited to, changes to corporate structure,
acquisitions of new companies or facilities, or changes to their
official company name,\3\ should timely file a Separate Rate
Application to demonstrate eligibility for a separate rate in this
proceeding. The Separate Rate Application will be available on
Commerce's website at https://access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nme-sep-rate.html on the date of publication of this Federal Register notice.
In responding to the Separate Rate Application, refer to the
instructions contained in the application. Separate Rate Applications
are due to Commerce no later than 30 calendar days after publication of
this Federal Register notice. The deadline and requirement for
submitting a Separate Rate Application applies equally to NME-owned
firms, wholly foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers that purchase
and export subject merchandise to the United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Such entities include entities that have not participated in
the proceeding, entities that were preliminarily granted a separate
rate in any currently incomplete segment of the proceeding (e.g., an
ongoing administrative review, new shipper review, etc.) and
entities that lost their separate rate in the most recently
completed segment of the proceeding in which they participated.
\3\ Only changes to the official company name, rather than trade
names, need to be addressed via a Separate Rate Application.
Information regarding new trade names may be submitted via a
Separate Rate Certification.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exporters and producers must file a timely Separate Rate
Application or Certification if they want to be considered for
individual examination. Furthermore, exporters and producers who submit
a Separate Rate Application or Certification and subsequently are
selected as mandatory respondents will no longer be eligible for
separate rate status unless they respond to all parts of the
questionnaire as mandatory respondents.
Initiation of Reviews
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating
administrative reviews of the following AD and CVD orders and findings.
We intend to issue the final results of these reviews not later than
March 31, 2025.

Duty Absorption Reviews
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Commerce also received a request for review of ``Suzano
Papel e Celulose S.A.'' However, prior to the period of review,
Commerce determined that Suzano S.A. is the successor-in-interest to
Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. See Certain Uncoated Paper from Brazil:
Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2019-2020,
86 FR 55820 (October 7, 2021). Therefore, we are initiating this
review on Suzano S.A.
\5\ Subject merchandise produced and exported by Balkrishna
Industries Ltd. (BKT) was excluded from the order. See Certain New
Pneumatic Off-the-Road Tires from India: Notice of Correction to
Antidumping Duty Order, 82 FR 25598 (June 2, 2017). Accordingly,
Commerce is initiating this administrative review with respect to
BKT only for subject merchandise produced in India where BKT acted
as either the manufacturer or exporter (but not both).
\6\ Commerce previously found Anhui Trust Chem Co., Ltd; Nanjing
Trust Chem Co., Ltd.; and Jiangsu Trust Chem Co., Ltd. to be cross-
owned. See Certain Corrosion Inhibitors from the People's Republic
of China: Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative
Review and Rescission of Review, in Part; 2020-2021, 88 FR 20475
(April 6, 2023) (Corrosion Inhibitors from China 2020-2021
Preliminary Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision
Memorandum (PDM) at 10, unchanged in Certain Corrosion Inhibitors
from the People's Republic of China: Final Results and Partial
Recission of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review; 2020-2021
(Corrosion Inhibitors from China 2020-2021 Final Results), 88 FR
69122 (October 5, 2023).
\7\ Commerce previously found Nantong Botao Chemical Co., Ltd;
Nantong Yutu Group Co., Ltd.; Rugao Connect Chemical Co., Ltd.; and
Rugao Jinling Chemical Co., Ltd. to be cross-owned. See Corrosion
Inhibitors from China 2020-2021 Preliminary Results, and
accompanying PDM at 10, unchanged in Corrosion Inhibitors from China
2020-2021 Final Results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
During any administrative review covering all or part of a period
falling between the first and second or third and fourth anniversary of
the publication of an AD order under 19 CFR 351.211 or a determination
under 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4) to continue an order or suspended
investigation (after sunset review), Commerce, if requested by a
domestic interested party within 30 days of the date of publication of
the notice of initiation of the review, will determine whether ADs have
been absorbed by an exporter or producer subject to the review if the
subject merchandise is sold in the United States through an importer
that is affiliated with such exporter or producer. The request must
include the name(s) of the exporter or producer for which the inquiry
is requested.
Gap Period Liquidation
For the first administrative review of any order, there will be no
assessment of antidumping or countervailing duties on entries of
subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption during the relevant ``gap'' period of the order (i.e., the
period following the expiry of provisional measures and before
definitive measures were put into place), if such a gap period is
applicable to the POR.
Administrative Protective Orders and Letters of Appearance
Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under
administrative protective orders in accordance with the procedures
outlined in Commerce's regulations at 19 CFR 351.305. Those procedures
apply to administrative reviews included in this notice of initiation.
Parties wishing to participate in any of these administrative reviews
should ensure that they meet the requirements of these procedures
(e.g., the filing of separate letters of appearance as discussed at 19
CFR 351.103(d)).
Factual Information Requirements
Commerce's regulations identify five categories of factual
information in 19 CFR 351.102(b)(21), which are summarized as follows:
(i) evidence submitted in response to questionnaires; (ii) evidence
submitted in support of allegations; (iii) publicly available
information to value factors under 19 CFR 351.408(c) or to measure the
adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR 351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence
placed on the record by Commerce; and (v) evidence other than factual
information described in (i)-(iv). These regulations require any party,
when submitting factual information, to specify under which subsection
of 19 CFR 351.102(b)(21) the information is being submitted and, if the
information is submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct factual
information already on the record, to provide an explanation
identifying the information already on the record that the factual
information seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The regulations, at 19
CFR 351.301, also provide specific time limits for such factual
submissions based on the type of factual information being submitted.
Please review the Final Rule,\8\ available at https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-07-17/pdf/2013-17045.pdf, prior to submitting
factual information in this segment. Note that Commerce has amended
certain of its requirements pertaining to the service of documents in
19 CFR 351.303(f).\9\

Any party submitting factual information in an AD or CVD proceeding
must certify to the accuracy and completeness of that information using
the formats provided at the end of the Final Rule.\10\ Commerce intends
to
[[Page 38873]]
reject factual submissions in any proceeding segments if the submitting
party does not comply with applicable certification requirements.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extension of Time Limits Regulation
Parties may request an extension of time limits before a time limit
established under Part 351 expires, or as otherwise specified by
Commerce.\11\ In general, an extension request will be considered
untimely if it is filed after the time limit established under Part 351
expires. For submissions which are due from multiple parties
simultaneously, an extension request will be considered untimely if it
is filed after 10:00 a.m. on the due date. Examples include, but are
not limited to: (1) case and rebuttal briefs, filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.309; (2) factual information to value factors under 19 CFR
351.408(c), or to measure the adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR
351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR 351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal,
clarification and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR
351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments concerning the selection of a surrogate
country and surrogate values and rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP
data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under certain circumstances, Commerce
may elect to specify a different time limit by which extension requests
will be considered untimely for submissions which are due from multiple
parties simultaneously. In such a case, Commerce will inform parties in
the letter or memorandum setting forth the deadline (including a
specified time) by which extension requests must be filed to be
considered timely. This policy also requires that an extension request
must be made in a separate, stand-alone submission, and clarifies the
circumstances under which Commerce will grant untimely-filed requests
for the extension of time limits. Please review the Final Rule,
available at https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-09-20/html/2013-22853.htm, prior to submitting factual information in these segments.
