SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 15, 2019, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on steel 

propane cylinders from Thailand.1 On 

August 2, 2022, Commerce published in 

the Federal Register a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of the Order.2 On October 11,

pages total, including footnotes. All 

briefs must be filed electronically using 

ACCESS.10

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, within 30 

days after the date of publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register. Requests 

should contain: (1) the party’s name, 

address and telephone number; (2) the 

number of participants; and (3) whether 

any participant is a foreign national; and 

(4) a list of issues to be discussed. Issues 

raised in the hearing will be limited to 

those raised by each party in their 

respective case and rebuttal briefs. If a 

request for a hearing is made, Commerce 

will announce the date and time of the 

hearing. Parties should confirm by 

telephone the date and time of the 

hearing two days before the scheduled 

hearing date. 

Note that Commerce has temporarily 

modified certain of its requirements for 

serving documents containing business 

proprietary information, until further 

notice.11 An electronically filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety in ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on the due date. 

We intend to issue the final results of 

this administrative review, including 

the results of our analysis of the issues 

raised in any written briefs, not later 

than 120 days after the date of 

publication of this notice, unless 

extended, pursuant to section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. 

Verification 

On January 18, 2023, Worthington 

Industries (the petitioner) requested that 

Commerce conduct verification of 

SMPC’s responses.12 Accordingly, as 

provided in section 782(i)(3) of the Act, 

Commerce intends to verify the 

information relied upon in determining 

its final results. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon issuance of the final results of 

this review, Commerce shall determine, 

and U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties 

on all appropriate entries covered by 

this review. If the weighted-average 

dumping margin for SMPC (i.e., the sole 

individually-examined respondent in 

this review) is not zero or de minimis 

(i.e., greater than or equal to 0.5 percent) 

in the final results of this review, we 

will calculate importer-specific ad 

valorem antidumping duty assessment 

rates on the basis of the ratio of the total 

amount of dumping calculated for the 

examined sales made during the POR to 

each importer and the total entered 

value of those same sales, in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If SMPC has 

not reported entered values, we will 

calculate a per-unit assessment rate for 

each importer by dividing the total 

amount of dumping calculated for the 

examined sales made to that importer by 

the total quantity associated with those 

transactions. To determine whether an 

importer-specific, per-unit assessment 

rate is de minimis, in accordance with 

19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we also will 

calculate an importer-specific ad 

valorem ratio based on estimated 

entered values. Where either SMPC’s 

weighted average dumping margin is 

zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific assessment ad valorem rate is 

zero or de minimis, we intend to 

instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate 

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties.13 The final results of this review 

shall be the basis for the assessment of 

antidumping duties on entries of 

merchandise covered by this review 

where applicable. 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by SMPC for 

which the producer did not know its 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate those entries at the all-others 

rate (i.e., 10.77 percent) 14 if there is no 

rate for the intermediate company(ies) 

involved in the transaction.15

We intend 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 cash 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 SMPC will be equal 

to the weighted-average dumping 

margin established in the final results of 

this administrative 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 reviewed or 

investigated companies not listed above, 

the cash deposit rate will continue to be 

the company-specific 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, a prior 

review, or in the less-than-fair-value 

investigation (LTFV) but the producer 

is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding 

for the producer of the merchandise; 

and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be the all-others rate of 10.77 percent, 

the rate established in the LTFV 

investigation of this proceeding.16 These 

cash 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)(2) 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 doubled antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results of review in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(h)(2) and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4). 

Dated: August 30, 2023.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and 

Compliance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Each year during the anniversary 

month of the publication of an 

antidumping or countervailing duty 

order, finding, or suspended 

investigation, an interested party, as 

defined in section 771(9) of the Tariff 

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

request, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213, that the U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) conduct an 

administrative review of that 

antidumping or countervailing duty 

order, finding, or suspended 

investigation. 

All deadlines for the submission of 

comments or actions by Commerce 

discussed below refer to the number of 

calendar days from the applicable 

starting date. 

Respondent Selection 

In the event Commerce limits the 

number of respondents for individual 

examination for administrative reviews 

initiated pursuant to requests made for 

the orders identified below, Commerce 

intends to select respondents based on 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) data for U.S. imports during the 

period of review. We intend to release 

the CBP data under administrative 

protective order (APO) to all parties 

having an APO within five days of 

publication of the initiation notice and 

to make our decision regarding 

respondent selection within 35 days of 

publication of the initiation Federal 

Register notice. Therefore, we 

encourage all parties interested in 

commenting on respondent selection to 

submit their APO applications on the 

date of publication of the initiation 

notice, or as soon thereafter as possible. 

Commerce invites comments regarding 

the CBP data and respondent selection 

within five days of placement of the 

CBP data on the record of the review. 

In the event Commerce decides it is 

necessary to limit individual 

examination of respondents and 

conduct respondent selection under 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act: 

In general, Commerce finds that 

determinations concerning whether 

particular companies should be 

‘‘collapsed’’ (i.e., treated as a single 

entity for purposes of calculating 

antidumping duty rates) require a 

substantial amount of detailed 

information and analysis, which often 

require follow-up questions and 

analysis. Accordingly, Commerce will 

not conduct collapsing analyses at the 

respondent selection phase of a review 

and will not collapse companies at the 

respondent selection phase unless there 

has been a determination to collapse 

certain companies in a previous 

segment of this antidumping proceeding 

(i.e., investigation, administrative 

review, new shipper review or changed 

circumstances review). For any 

company subject to a review, if 

Commerce determined, or continued to 

treat, that company as collapsed with 

others, Commerce will assume that such 

companies continue to operate in the 

same manner and will collapse them for 

respondent selection purposes. 

Otherwise, Commerce will not collapse 

companies for purposes of respondent 

selection. Parties are requested to: (a) 

identify which companies subject to 

review previously were collapsed; and 

(b) provide a citation to the proceeding 

in which they were collapsed. Further, 

if companies are requested to complete 

a quantity and value questionnaire for 

purposes of respondent selection, in 

general each company must report 

volume and value data separately for 

itself. Parties should not include data 

for any other party, even if they believe 

they should be treated as a single entity 

with that other party. If a company was 

collapsed with another company or 

companies in the most recently 

completed segment of a proceeding 

where Commerce considered collapsing 

that entity, complete quantity and value 

data for that collapsed entity must be 

submitted. 

Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for 

Administrative Review 

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

party that requests a review may 

withdraw that request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. The 

regulation provides that Commerce may 

extend this time if it is reasonable to do 

so. Determinations by Commerce to 

extend the 90-day deadline will be 

made on a case-by-case basis. 

Deadline for Particular Market 

Situation Allegation 

Section 504 of the Trade Preferences 

Extension Act of 2015 amended the Act 

by adding the concept of particular 

market situation (PMS) for purposes of 

constructed value under section 773(e) 

of the Act.1 Section 773(e) of the Act 

states that ‘‘if a particular market 

situation exists such that the cost of 

materials and fabrication or other 

processing of any kind does not 

accurately reflect the cost of production 

in the ordinary course of trade, the 

administering authority may use 

another calculation methodology under 

this subtitle or any other calculation 

methodology.’’ When an interested 

party submits a PMS allegation pursuant 

to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce 

will respond to such a submission 

consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v). 

If Commerce finds that a PMS exists 

under section 773(e) of the Act, then it 

will modify its dumping calculations 

appropriately. 

Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor 

19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a deadline 

for the submission of PMS allegations 

and supporting factual information. 

However, in order to administer section 

773(e) of the Act, Commerce must 

receive PMS allegations and supporting 

factual information with enough time to 

consider the submission. Thus, should 

an interested party wish to submit a 

PMS allegation and supporting new 

factual information pursuant to section 

773(e) of the Act, it must do so no later 

than 20 days after submission of initial 

Section D responses. 

Opportunity To Request A Review: 

Not later than the last day of September 

2023,2 interested parties may request 

administrative review of the following 

orders, findings, or suspended 

investigations, with anniversary dates in 

September for the following periods:
