SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) preliminarily determines

provided to producers and exporters of 

multilayered wood flooring (wood 

flooring) from the People’s Republic of 

China (PRC). Interested parties are 

invited to comment on these 

preliminary results of review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:. 

Background 

On December 8, 2011, Commerce 

issued a countervailing duty (CVD) 

order on multilayered wood flooring 

from the PRC.1 Interested parties 

requested that Commerce conduct an 

administrative review of the 

countervailing duty order,2 and on 

February 23, 2018, Commerce published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

initiation of an administrative review of 

the Order on 149 producers/exporters 

for the period of review (POR).3

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by the Order is 

wood flooring from the PRC. For a 

complete description of the scope of this 

administrative review, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.4

Rescission of Administrative Review, in 

Part 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the 

Secretary will rescind an administrative 

review, in whole or in part, if the parties 

that requested a review withdraw the 

request within 90 days of the date of 

publication of the notice of initiation of 

the requested review. This review was 

initiated on February 23, 2018. On 

March 14, 2018, Huzhou Jesonwood 

submitted a withdrawal request within 

the 90-day deadline.5 On May 7, 2018, 

Dalian Penghong and 15 other 

companies submitted withdrawal 

requests.6 The petitioner filed 

withdrawal requests for Dalian 

Penghong, Dunhua City Jisen Wood 

Industry Co., Ltd (Dunhua City Jisen), 

and Dalian Shumaike Floor 

Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (Dalian 

Shumaike).7 All of the withdrawal 

requests submitted above were within 

the 90-day deadline. Therefore, because 

there are no remaining requests to 

review the following companies, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), 

and consistent with our practice, we are 

rescinding this review with respect to 

Dalian Penghong, Dalian Shumaike, 

Dunhau City Jisen, Fusong Jinqui, 

Huzhou Jesonwood, and Shanghaifloor. 

Intent To Rescind Administrative 

Review, in Part 

We received timely filed no-shipment 

certifications from eight companies.8

Commerce issued no-shipment inquiries 

to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) requesting any information that 

may contradict the no-shipment claims. 

We have not received information from 

CBP to date that contradicts Anhui Boya 

Bamboo & Wood Products Co., Ltd.’s, 

Chinafloors Timber (China) Co., Ltd.’s, 

Jiangsu Keri Wood Co., Ltd.’s, Jiashan 

On-Line Lumber Co., Ltd.’s, Kingman 

Floors Co., Ltd.’s, Linyi Bonn Flooring 

Manufacturing Co., Ltd.’s, and Zhejiang 

Shiyou Timber Co., Ltd.’s claims of no 

sales, shipments or entries of subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POR.9 Because these companies 

timely filed their no-shipment 

certifications and CBP has not provided 

information that contradicts the 

companies’ claims, we preliminarily 

intend to rescind the review of these 

companies. Absent any evidence of 

shipments being placed on the record,

regarding financial contribution; section 771(5)(E) 

of the Act regarding benefit; and section 771(5A) of 

the Act regarding specificity. 

15See section 776 of the Act. 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), we 

intend to rescind the administrative 

review of these companies in the final 

results of review. 

On October 29, 2018, Huzhou Muyun 

Wood Co., Ltd. (Muyun Wood) filed a 

no-shipment certification.10 On 

November 13, 2018, we rejected Muyun 

Wood’s request for no-shipment status 

because the request was untimely 

filed.11 Consequently, Muyun Wood 

continues to be subject to this 

administrative review. 

Hunchun Forest timely filed a noshipment certification.12 However, 

Hunchun Forest subsequently withdrew 

its no-shipment submssion.13 Therefore, 

we are continuing to include Hunchun 

Forest in this administrative review for 

purposes of the preliminary results. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(Act). For each of the subsidy programs 

found countervailable, we preliminarily 

determine that there is a subsidy, i.e., a 

financial contribution by an ‘‘authority’’ 

that confers a benefit to the recipient, 

and that the subsidy is specific.14 For a 

full description of the methodology 

underlying our preliminary conclusions, 

see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

The Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is on file electronically via Enforcement 

and Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at https://access.trade.gov and in the 

Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of 

the main Department building. In 

addition, a complete version of the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum can 

be accessed directly on the internet at 

http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/ 

index.html. The signed Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum and the 

electronic version of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content. A list of topics discussed in the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is 

included as an Appendix to this notice. 

In making these preliminary results, 

the Commerce relied, in part, on facts 

otherwise available.15 For further 

information, see ‘‘Provision of 

Electricity for Less Than Adequate 

Remuneration (LTAR), Provision of 

Land-Use Rights to Certain Industrial 

Zones for LTAR, Provision of Veneers 

for LTAR, Provision of Cut Timber for 

LTAR, Export Buyers’ Credit, and Other 

Subsidies’’ in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. For further information, 

see ‘‘Use of Facts Otherwise Available 

and Application of Adverse Inferences’’ 

in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Rate for Non-Selected Companies 

Under Review 

There are 132 companies for which a 

review was requested and not 

rescinded, and which were not selected 

as mandatory respondents or found to 

be cross-owned with a mandatory 

respondent. For these companies, we 

are preliminarily applying the average 

of the rates calculated for the mandatory 

respondents, Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo 

Wood Industry Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu 

Senmao) and Riverside Plywood Corp. 

(Riverside Plywood), which are above 

de minimis. For further information on 

the calculation of the non-selected 

respondent rate, refer to the section in 

the Preliminary Decision Memorandum 

entitled ‘‘Preliminary Ad Valorem Rate 

for Non-Selected Companies Under 

Review.’’ 

Preliminary Results of the Review 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(4)(i), we calculated a 

countervailable subsidy rate for each of 

the mandatory respondents, Jiangsu 

Senmao and Riverside Plywood, and 

their cross-owned affiliates where 

applicable. 

We preliminarily find the 

countervailable subsidy rates for the 

mandatory and non-selected 

respondents under review to be as 

follows:
