SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) is amending its preliminarily affirmative determination in the less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation of aluminum lithographic printing plates (printing plates) from People’s Republic of China (China) to correct significant ministerial errors. The period of investigation (POI) is January 1, 2023, through June 30, 2023. DATES: Applicable June 3, 2024. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Benito Ballesteros, AD/CVD Operations, Office IX, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–7425. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 On May 1, 2024, Commerce published in the Federal Register its preliminary affirmative determination in the LTFV investigation of printing plates from China.1 On May 6, 2024, Eastman Kodak 1 See Aluminum Lithographic Printing Plates from the People’s Republic of China: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, and Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional Measures, 89 FR 35062 (May 1, 2024) (Preliminary Determination), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM). VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:00 May 31, 2024 Jkt 262001 Company (the petitioner) timely alleged that Commerce made significant ministerial errors in calculating FUJIFILM Printing Plate (China) Co., Limited’s (Fujifilm) preliminary estimated weighted-average dumping margin.2 Scope of the Investigation The products covered by this investigation are printing plates from China. For a complete description of the scope of this investigation, see the Preliminary Determination.3 Legal Framework Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(e), Commerce will correct any significant ministerial error by amending the preliminary determination. A ministerial error is defined as including errors ‘‘in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical error resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other similar type of unintentional error which {Commerce} considers ministerial.’’ 4 A ministerial error is considered to be ‘‘significant’’ if its correction, either singly or in combination with other errors, would result in: (1) a change of at least five absolute percentage points in, but not less than 25 percent of, the weightedaverage dumping margin calculated in the preliminary determination; or (2) a difference between a weighted-average dumping margin of zero (or de minimis) and a weighted-average dumping margin of greater than de minimis or vice versa.5 Analysis of Significant Ministerial Errors The petitioner alleged that: (1) Commerce’s conversion of surrogate value (SV) information, from a perkilogram to a per-pound basis for direct material and packing inputs, results in a mismatch in the units of measure between the SV information and Fujifilm’s reported data; (2) Commerce erroneously converted the natural gas and steam surrogate values from kilograms to pounds, not to cubic meters and metric tons; and (3) Commerce did not include certain packing input variables in the calculation of the PACKING variable, which is used in the calculation of 2 See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Petitioner’s Comments on Significant Ministerial Errors in Preliminary Margin Calculations,’’ dated May 6, 2024 (Petitioner Ministerial Errors Allegation). 3 See Preliminary Determination, 89 FR at 35064. 4 See section 735(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act); see also 19 CFR 351.224(f). 5 See 19 CFR 351.224(g). PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 normal value.6 In the Preliminary Determination, when calculating SVs for Fujifilm, we inadvertently converted the SVs to pounds, resulting in a mismatch to Fujifilm’s factors of production, which were reported on a kilogram basis.7 In addition, we inadvertently excluded certain packing inputs from the calculation of normal value.8 Commerce finds that the allegations by the petitioner constitute significant ministerial errors within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.224(f) and (g)(1), because correcting for these errors increases Fujifilm’s preliminary weighted-average dumping margin from 38.57 to 164.31 percent, which is a change that is at least five absolute percentage points in, but not less than 25 percent of, the weighted-average dumping margin calculated for Fujifilm in the Preliminary Determination. Furthermore, in the Preliminary Determination, Commerce preliminarily determined that it was appropriate to use the facts available in determining the rate of the China-wide entity, pursuant to sections 776(a)(1) and (2)(A)–(C) of the Act,9 including the use of an adverse inference, pursuant to section 776(b) of the Act.10 In selecting a rate to apply to the China-wide entity, Commerce selects a rate that is sufficiently adverse to ensure that the uncooperative party does not obtain a more favorable result by failing to cooperate than if it had fully cooperated.11 In an investigation, it is Commerce’s practice with respect to the assignment of an adverse facts available (AFA) rate to select the higher of the: (a) highest margin alleged in the petition; or (b) the highest calculated rate of any respondent in the investigation.12 As a 6 See Petitioner Ministerial Errors Allegation.
