SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the Order on 

wooden cabinets and vanities on April 

21, 2020.1 On October 30, 2020, 

pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 

and 19 CFR 351.214(c), Commerce 

received a timely NSR request from 

Dalin Hualing Wood Co., Ltd. 

(Hualing).2

In its submission, Hualing certified 

that it is the exporter of the subject 

merchandise subject to this NSR 

request.3 Pursuant to section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(ii)(A), Hualing certified 

that it did not export wooden cabinets 

and vanities to the United States during 

the period of investigation (POI).4

Additionally, pursuant to section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A), Hualing certified 

that, since the initiation of the 

investigation, it has not been affiliated 

with any producer or exporter that 

exported wooden cabinets and vanities 

to the United States during the POI, 

including those not individually 

examined during the investigation.5 As 

required by 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), 

Hualing also certified that its export 

activities are not controlled by the 

central government of China.6 Further, 

Hualing stated that it has not made 

subsequent shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR.7

In addition to the certifications 

described above, pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.214(b)(2)(iv), Hualing submitted 

documentation establishing the 

following: (1) The date on which it first 

shipped subject merchandise for export 

to the United States; (2) the volume of 

its first shipment; and (3) the date of its 

first sale to an unaffiliated customer in 

the United States.8

Commerce conducted a query of U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

data and confirmed that Hualing’s 

subject merchandise entered the United 

States for consumption and that 

liquidation of such entries had been 

properly suspended for antidumping 

duties. The CBP data that Commerce 

examined are consistent with 

information provided by Hualing in its 

NSR request. In particular, the CBP data 

confirm the price and quantity reported 

by Hualing for the sale that forms the 

basis of its NSR request. 9

Period of Review 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.214(g)(1)(i)(B), the POR for an NSR 

initiated in the month immediately 

following the semiannual anniversary 

month will be the six-month period 

immediately preceding the semiannual 

anniversary month. Therefore, the POR 

for this NSR is April 1, 2020, through 

September 30, 2020. 

Initiation of NSR 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b), and based 

on the information on the record, we 

find that Hualing’s NSR request meets 

the threshold requirements for initiation 

of an NSR of its shipment(s) of wooden 

cabinets and vanities to the United 

States.10 However, if the information 

supplied by Hualing is later found to be 

incorrect or insufficient during the 

course of this NSR, Commerce may 

rescind the review or apply adverse 

facts available, pursuant to section 776 

of the Act, as appropriate. Pursuant to 

19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce will 

publish the notice of initiation of an 

NSR no later than the last day of the 

month following the anniversary or 

semiannual anniversary month of the 

order. Commerce intends to issue the 

preliminary results of this review no 

later than 180 days from the date of 

initiation, and the final results of this 

review no later than 90 days after the 

date the preliminary results are 

issued.11

It is Commerce’s practice in cases 

involving non-market economies to 

require that a company seeking to 

establish eligibility for an antidumping 

duty rate separate from the countrywide rate (i.e., separate rate) provide 

evidence of de jure and de facto absence 

of government control over the 

company’s export activities.12

13The Act was amended by the Trade Facilitation 

and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 which removed 

from section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act the provision 

directing Commerce to instruct CBP to allow an 

importer the option of posting a bond or security 

in lieu of a cash deposit during the pendency of an 

NSR.

5See Memorandum, ‘‘Tolling of Deadlines for 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews,’’ dated July 21, 2020. 

Accordingly, Commerce will issue 

questionnaires to Hualing requesting, 

inter alia, information regarding its 

export activities for the purpose of 

determining whether it is eligible for a 

separate rate. The review of the exporter 

will proceed if the response provides 

sufficient indication that the exporter is 

not subject to either de jure or de facto 

government control with respect to its 

exports of wooden cabinets and 

vanities. 

We intend to conduct this NSR in 

accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of 

the Act.13 Because Hualing certified that 

it exported subject merchandise, the 

sale of which is the basis for its NSR 

request, Commerce will instruct CBP to 

continue to suspend liquidation of all 

entries of subject merchandise exported 

by Hualing. To assist in its analysis of 

the bona fide nature of Hualing’s sale(s), 

upon initiation of this NSR, Commerce 

will require Hualing to submit, on an 

ongoing basis, complete transaction 

information concerning any sales of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States that were made subsequent to the 

POR. 

Interested parties requiring access to 

proprietary information in this NSR 

should submit applications for 

disclosure under administrative 

protective order in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.305 and 351.306. This 

initiation notice is published in 

accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and 

351.221(c)(1)(i).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Results of this administrative review of

and Decision Memorandum. 

Analysis of Subsidy Programs and 

Comments Received 

Commerce conducted this CVD 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The 

subsidy programs under review, and the 

issues raised in case and rebuttal briefs 

submitted by the interested parties, are 

discussed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. A list of the issues that 

the parties raised, and to which we 

responded in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, is attached to this notice 

at Appendix I. The Issues and 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. In addition, a 

complete version of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at http://enforcement.trade.gov/ 

frn/index.html. The signed and 

electronic versions of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content. 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received from the interested 

parties, we made changes to the subsidy 

rates calculated for certain respondents. 

For a discussion of these changes, see 

the Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Companies Not Selected for Individual 

Review 

Because the rates calculated for the 

companies selected for individual 

reviewed are above de minimis and not 

based entirely on facts available, we 

applied a subsidy rate based on a 

weighted average of the subsidy rates 

calculated for the reviewed companies 

using sales data submitted by those 

companies to calculate a rate for the 

companies not selected for review. This 

is consistent with the methodology that 

we would use in an investigation to 

establish the all-others rate, pursuant to 

section 705(c)(5)(A) of the Act. A list of
