Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Dongkuk for which Dongkuk did not know that the merchandise it sold to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 26, 2020, Commerce published the antidumping duty order 
on utility scale wind towers (wind towers) from the Republic of Korea 
(Korea) in the Federal Register.\1\ On October 18, 2023, based on 
timely requests for review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), 
we initiated an administrative review of the Order on wind towers from 
Korea.\2\ This review covers 16 producers/exporters of the subject 
merchandise. In April 2024, we extended the deadline for issuing the 
preliminary results of this review until August 30, 2024.\3\ On July 
22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this administrative 
proceeding by seven days.\4\ The deadline for the preliminary results 
is now September 6, 2024. For a complete description of the events that 
followed the initiation of this review, see the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum.\5\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the Order is wind towers from Korea. For 
a full description of the scope of the Order, see the Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum.

Partial Rescission of Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review when there are no reviewable entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR for which liquidation is suspended.\6\ 
Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the suspended 
entries are liquidated at the antidumping duty assessment rate 
calculated for the review period.\7\ Therefore, for an administrative 
review to be conducted, there must be a suspended entry that Commerce 
can instruct CBP to liquidate at the antidumping duty assessment rate 
calculated for the POR.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See, e.g., Dioctyl Terephthalate from the Republic of Korea: 
Rescission of Antidumping Administrative Review; 2021-2022, 88 FR

    \8\ See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 20, 2023, we notified all interested parties of our 
intent to rescind this review, in part, with respect to the 15 
companies listed in Appendix II because there were no suspended entries 
of subject merchandise produced or exported by these companies during 
the POR and we invited interested parties to comment.\9\ We received no

comments on the Intent to Rescind Memorandum. Accordingly, Commerce is 
rescinding this review with respect to the companies listed in Appendix 
II, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).

    \9\ See Memorandum, ``Notice of Intent to Rescind Review, in 
Part,'' dated December 20, 2023 (Intent to Rescind Memorandum). We 
note that this memorandum incorrectly listed ``Renewable Energy'' as 
one of the companies for which Commerce intended to rescind this 
review. However, Commerce did not initiate a review with respect to 
this company. See Initiation Notice, 88 FR at 71831-71832.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Export price is

briefs no later than 30 days after the date of publication of this 
notice. 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.\10\ Interested parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal 
briefs in this administrative review must submit: (1) a table of 
contents listing each issue; and (2) a table of authorities.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d)(1); 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).
    \11\ See 19 CFR 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.\12\ 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).\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that 
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum.
    \13\ 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 (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 request must be received successfully in its entirety by 
Commerce's electronic records system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time 
within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuing the final results, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on 
all appropriate entries. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because 
Dongkuk reported the entered value of its U.S. sales, we calculated 
importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio 
of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the 
total entered value of those sales. Where either the respondent's 
weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the 
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific rate is zero 
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 
entries without regard to antidumping duties.
    Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice will apply to entries 
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Dongkuk for which 
Dongkuk did not know that the merchandise it sold to the intermediary 
(e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the 
United States. In such instances, 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.
    For the companies listed in Appendix II for which we are rescinding 
the review, we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all 
appropriate entries at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated 
antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 
warehouse, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends 
to issue these rescission instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days 
after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, 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. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to 
CBP regarding Dongkuk 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 the company 
listed above will be that established in the

[[Page 74882]]

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 covered in this 
review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific 
cash deposit 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 review, or the less-than-fair-value 
(LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is, then the cash deposit 
rate will be the rate established for the most recent segment for the 
manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all 
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 5.41 percent, the 
all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\14\ These 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. 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

    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: September 6, 2024.
Abdelali Elouaradia,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
