the transaction.16 The final results of
this administrative review shall be the
basis for the assessment of antidumping
duties on entries of merchandise under
review and for future cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties, where
applicable.
For Siderca, for which the
administrative review is rescinded,
antidumping duties shall be assessed at
a rate equal to the cash deposit of
estimated antidumping duties required
at the time of entry, or withdrawal from
warehouse, for consumption, in
accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(1)(i).
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 41 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register, in
accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a). 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 will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of
the final results of this administrative
review for all shipments of the subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for companies subject
to this review will be equal to the
company-specific weighted-average
dumping margin established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2)
for merchandise exported by a company
not covered in this review but covered
in a prior segment of the proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published in the
completed segment for the most recent
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm
covered in this review, a prior review,
or the less-than-fair-value investigation
but the producer is, then the cash
deposit rate will be the rate established
in the most recently completed segment
of the proceeding for the producer of the
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters

will continue to be 44.93 percent, the
all-others rate established in the lessthan-fair-value investigation.17 These
cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
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 double
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These preliminary results are issued
and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act,
19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 22, 2021, Commerce
published in the Federal Register the
antidumping duty order on thermal
paper from Korea.1 On November 2,
2023, Commerce published in the
Federal Register a notice of opportunity
to request an administrative review of
the Order for the POR.2 On December
29, 2023, based on timely requests for
review, we initiated an administrative
review of the Order covering one
company, Hansol Paper Company
(Hansol), in accordance 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act).3
On July 3, 2024, we extended the
preliminary results of this review to no
later than November 22, 2024.4 On July
22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain
deadlines in this administrative
proceeding by seven days.5 The
deadline for the preliminary results is
now November 29, 2024.

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this
administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review. Pursuant
to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because Hansol
reported the entered value for all of its
U.S. sales, we calculated importerspecific 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 the sales for which entered
value was reported. Where either
Hansol’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 Hansol for which it did not know
that the merchandise it sold to an
intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading
company, or exporter) was destined for
the United States. In such instances, we
will instruct CBP to liquidate those
entries at the all-others rate if there is no
rate for the intermediate company(ies)
involved in the transaction.13
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 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
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 lessthan-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 6.19 percent, the allothers rate established in the LTFV
investigation.14 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This is a request for renewal of an
approved information collection. The
National Marine Fisheries Service,
Alaska Regional Office (NMFS AKR), is
the sponsor of this information
collection, which contains the
requirements for the annual participant
letter for the Aleutian Islands pollock
fishery.
NMFS AKR manages the groundfish
fisheries in the exclusive economic zone
of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands
management area under the Fishery
Management Plan for Groundfish of the
Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands
Management Area (FMP). The
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq.) authorizes the North
Pacific Fishery Management Council to
prepare and amend fishery management
plans for any fishery in waters under its
jurisdiction.
Amendment 82 to the FMP
established a framework for the
management of the Aleutian Islands
subarea (AI) directed pollock fishery.
Amendment 82 implemented a
provision of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act of 2004 (Pub. L.
108–199, sec. 803) that requires the AI
directed pollock fishery be allocated to
The Aleut Corporation for the purpose
of economic development in Adak,
Alaska. The Aleut Corporation is
identified in Public Law 108–199 as a
business incorporated pursuant to the
Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (43
U.S.C. 1601 et seq.). The Aleut
Corporation’s AI pollock fishery is set
up so that harvesting pollock in the AI
directed pollock fishery and processing
pollock taken in the AI directed pollock
fishery are authorized only for those
harvesters and processors that are
selected by The Aleut Corporation and
approved by the NMFS Regional
Administrator.
The purpose of this collection is for
NMFS to obtain the list of vessels and
processors selected by The Aleut
Corporation to harvest and process its
annual AI pollock allocation. NMFS
uses this information to manage the AI
pollock fishery. Without this
information, NMFS would not know the
participants selected by The Aleut
Corporation and could not determine

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because Hansol reported the entered
value for all 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
the sales for which entered value was reported. Where either Hansol'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 Hansol for which it
did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary (e.g., a
reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United
States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those
entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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 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 6.19 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.\14\ These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.

Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, including the results of its
analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, no later than 120
days after the date of publication of this notice 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 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 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.
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, and 19 CFR 351.213 and
351.221(b)(4).
Dated: November 27, 2024.
Abdelali Elouaradia,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
