Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 107 / Monday, June 3, 2024 / Notices
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Determination of
No Shipments, Commerce determined
that Surya did not have knowledge that
the subject merchandise was destined
for the United States, and, thus, Surya
is not considered the exporter of subject
merchandise during the POR for the
purposes of this review.3 As no parties
commented on the determination and
we have not received any information to
contradict this determination, for the
final results of review, we continue to
find that Surya made no shipments of
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to
interested parties the calculations
performed in final results within five
days of any public announcement or, if
there is no public announcement,
within five days of the date of
publication of these final results in the
Federal Register, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.224(b). However, as there were
no calculations performed in this
administrative review, there are no
calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Surya, we
will instruct CBP to liquidate suspended
entries at the all-others rate if there is no
rate for the intermediate company(ies)
involved in the transaction.4
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 cash deposit
requirements for estimated antidumping
duties will be effective for all shipments
of 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withdrawn from warehouse, for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) for
merchandise exported by a producer or
exporter not covered in this review but

covered in a prior completed segment of
the proceeding, the cash deposit rate
will continue to be the companyspecific rate published for the most
recently-completed segment of this
proceeding; (2) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the original less-than-fairvalue (LTFV) investigation, but the
producer has been covered in a prior
completed segment of this proceeding,
the cash deposit rate will be the
company-specific rate established for
the most recent period for the producer
of the merchandise; (3) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters
will continue to be 7.08 percent,5 the
all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
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 the 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.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to parties subject to an
administrative protective order (APO) of
their responsibility concerning the
return or destruction of proprietary
information disclosed under APO in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3),
which continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is
a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
final results of administrative review in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(5).

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce intends to determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise covered by this review.
Commerce intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35
days after the date of publication of the
final results of this administrative
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).
For an individually examined
respondent whose weighted-average
dumping margin is not zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent),
upon completion of the final results,
Commerce intends to calculate
importer-specific AD assessment rates
on the basis of the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for each
importer’s examined sales to the total
entered value of those sales. Where we
do not have entered values for all U.S.
sales to a particular importer, we will
calculate an importer-specific, per-unit
assessment rate on the basis of the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales to the total quantity of those
sales.12 To determine whether an
importer-specific, per-unit assessment
rate is de minimis, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we also will
calculate an importer-specific ad
valorem ratio based on estimated
entered values. Where either a
respondent’s weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, or an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis, we intend to instruct
CBP to liquidate appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.13
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by each
individually-examined respondent for
which it did not know its merchandise
was destined for the United States, we
intend to instruct CBP to liquidate such

entries at the all-others rate if there is no

involved in the transaction.14
For the companies which were not
selected for individual examination, we
intend to assign an AD assessment rate
equal to the dumping margin
determined for Ecos/Grantec in the final
results of 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 cash
deposits of estimated antidumping
duties, where applicable.15
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash 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 the companies
listed above 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 reviewed or investigated
companies not covered in this review,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for
the most recently-completed segment of
this proceeding in which the company
was reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not
a firm covered in this review, a prior
completed review, or the less-than-fair
value (LTFV) investigation, but the
producer is, then the cash deposit rate
will be the company-specific rate
established for the most recentlycompleted segment of this proceeding
for the producer of subject merchandise;
and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers and exporters will continue
to be 2.22 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.16
These cash deposit requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.

review, including the results of our

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 doubled
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These preliminary results are issued
and published in accordance with

Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 14, 2021, Commerce published the antidumping duty (AD) order
on mattresses from Indonesia.\1\ On July 12, 2023, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce
[[Page 47529]]
initiated an administrative review of the Order.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), on January 10, 2024, Commerce determined that it was
not practicable to complete the preliminary results of this review
within 245 days and extended the deadline for the preliminary results
of this review by 120 days, until May 30, 2024.\3\

Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Mattresses from
Indonesia; 2022-2023,'' dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted
by, this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the Order are mattresses from Indonesia.
The product is currently classified under the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 9404.21.0010,
9404.21.0013, 9404.29.1005, 9404.29.1013, 9404.29.9085, and
9404.29.9087. Products subject to this review may also enter under
HTSUS subheadings 9404.21.0095, 9404.29.1095, 9404.29.9095,
9401.40.0000, and 9401.90.5081. The HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes only; the written product description
of the scope of the Order is dispositive. For a full description of the
scope, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Act. Export price and constructed export
price are calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. NV is
calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology underlying these preliminary results,
see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. A list of topics included in
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as Appendix I to this
notice.
Rate for Non-Examined Companies
The statute and Commerce's regulations do not address the
establishment of a weighted-average dumping margin to be determined for
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 determining the weighted-
average dumping margin for companies which were not selected for
individual examination in an administrative review. Under section
735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally ``an amount
equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted average dumping
margins established for exporters and producers individually
investigated, excluding any zero and de minimis margins, and any
margins determined entirely {on the basis of facts available{time} .''
We preliminarily calculated dumping margins for the two mandatory
respondents, Ecos/Grantec and Zinus Indonesia, of 31.17 percent and
0.00 percent, respectively, and we have assigned to the non-selected
companies a rate of 31.17 percent, which is the rate for Ecos/Grantec.
Preliminary Results of the Review
We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average
dumping margins exist for the period May 1, 2022, through April 30,
2023:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ We are treating these companies as a single entity for
purposes of this review. For a complete discussion, see Memorandum,
``Affiliation and Collapsing of PT Ecos Jaya Indonesia and PT
Grantec Jaya Indonesia,'' dated December 8, 2022.

Disclosure and Public Comment
Commerce intends to disclose its calculations and analysis
performed for these preliminary results to interested parties within
five days of the date of publication of this notice in accordance with
19 CFR 351.224(b).
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), interested parties may submit case
briefs to Commerce no later than 30 days after the date of publication
of this notice.\7\ Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the
case briefs, may be filed not later than five days after the date for
filing case briefs.\8\ Interested parties who submit case or rebuttal
briefs in this proceeding must submit: (1) a table of contents listing
each issue; and (2) a table of authorities.\9\ Case and rebuttal briefs
should be filed using ACCESS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c); see also 19 CFR 351.303 (for general
filing requirements).
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d); see also Administrative Protective
Order, Service, and Other Procedures in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings, 88 FR 67069, 67077 (September 29,
2023) (APO and Service Final Rule).
\9\ See 19 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior
proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an
executive summary of their brief that should be limited to five pages
total, including footnotes. In this review, we instead request that
interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a public,
executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.\10\ Further,
we request that interested parties limit their executive summary of
each issue to no more than 450 words, not including citations. We
intend to use the executive summaries as the basis of the comment
summaries included in the issues and decision memorandum that will
accompany the final results in this administrative review. We request
that interested parties include footnotes for relevant citations in the
executive summary of each issue. Note that Commerce has amended certain
of its requirements pertaining to the service of documents in 19 CFR
351.303(f).\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
\11\ See APO and Service Final Rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing must submit a written request to the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, filed electronically via
ACCESS. Requests should contain: (1) the party's name, address, and
telephone number; (2) the number of participants and whether any
participant is a foreign national; and (3) a list of issues to be
discussed. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to those raised
in the respective case briefs. An electronically filed hearing
[[Page 47530]]
request must be received successfully in its entirety via ACCESS by 5
p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days after the date of publication of this
notice.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce intends to determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review.
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
administrative 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).
For an individually examined respondent whose weighted-average
dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50
percent), upon completion of the final results, Commerce intends to
calculate importer-specific AD assessment rates on the basis of the
ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer's
examined sales to the total entered value of those sales. Where we do
not have entered values for all U.S. sales to a particular importer, we
will calculate an importer-specific, per-unit assessment rate on the
basis of the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the
importer's examined sales to the total quantity of those sales.\12\ To
determine whether an importer-specific, per-unit assessment rate is de
minimis, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we also will
calculate an importer-specific ad valorem ratio based on estimated
entered values. Where either a respondent's weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific assessment rate
is zero or de minimis, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
\13\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2); see also Antidumping Proceeding:
Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment
Rate in Certain Antidumping Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR
8101, 8103 (February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by each
individually-examined respondent for which it did not know its
merchandise was destined for the United States, we intend to instruct
CBP to liquidate such entries at the all-others rate if there is no
rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies which were not selected for individual
examination, we intend to assign an AD assessment rate equal to the
dumping margin determined for Ecos/Grantec in the final results of
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 cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties, where applicable.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash 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 the companies
listed above 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 reviewed or investigated companies not covered in
this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published for the most recently-completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company was reviewed; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior completed review, or the
less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation, but the producer is, then
the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific rate established for
the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding for the producer
of subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers and exporters will continue to be 2.22 percent, the all-
others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Final Results of the Review
Unless the deadline is otherwise extended, Commerce intends to
issue the final results of this administrative review, including the
results of our analysis of issues raised by the parties in the written
comments, within 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)(1).
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 doubled
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These preliminary results are issued and published in accordance
with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(4).
