each issue; and (2) a table of 

authorities.10

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 briefs that 

should be limited to five pages total, 

including footnotes. In this 

investigation, we instead request that 

interested parties provide at the 

beginning of their briefs a public, 

executive summary for each issue raised 

in their briefs.11 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 determination in this investigation. 

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).12

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing, limited to issues raised in the 

case and rebuttal briefs, must submit a 

written request to the Assistant 

Secretary for Enforcement and 

Compliance, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, within 30 days after the date 

of publication of this notice. Requests 

should contain the party’s name, 

address, and telephone number, the 

number of participants, and a list of the 

issues to be discussed. If a request for 

a hearing is made, Commerce will 

inform parties of the time and date for 

the hearing. 

Postponement of Final Determination 

and Extension of Provisional Measures 

Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides 

that a final determination may be 

postponed until not later than 135 days 

after the date of the publication of the 

preliminary determination if, in the 

event of an affirmative preliminary 

determination, a request for such 

postponement is made by exporters who 

account for a significant proportion of 

exports of the subject merchandise, or in 

the event of a negative preliminary 

determination, a request for such 

postponement is made by the petitioner. 

Section 351.210(e)(2) of Commerce’s 

regulations requires that a request by 

exporters for postponement of the final 

determination be accompanied by a 

request for extension of provisional 

measures from a four-month period to a 

period not more than six months in 

duration. 

On October 31, 2023, pursuant to 19 

CFR 351.210(e), Bhiwadi/Sapphire 

requested that Commerce postpone the 

final determination and that provisional 

measures be extended to a period not to 

exceed six months.13 In accordance with 

section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because: (1) the 

preliminary determination is 

affirmative; (2) the requesting exporter 

account for a significant proportion of 

exports of the subject merchandise; and 

(3) no compelling reasons for denial 

exist, Commerce is postponing the final 

determination and extending the 

provisional measures from a four-month 

period to a period not greater than six 

months. Accordingly, Commerce will 

make its final determination no later 

than 135 days after the date of 

publication of this preliminary 

determination. 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

Notification 

In accordance with section 733(f) of 

the Act, Commerce will notify the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) of 

its preliminary determination. If the 

final determination is affirmative, the 

ITC will determine before the later of 

120 days after the date of this 

preliminary determination or 45 days 

after the final determination whether 

these imports are materially injuring, or 

threaten material injury to, the U.S. 

industry. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This determination is issued and 

published in accordance with sections 

733(f) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.205(c). 

Dated: November 24, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 1, 2023, Commerce published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of the AD order on PC strand 

from Ukraine.1 On June 30, 2023, Insteel 

Wire Products Company, Sumiden Wire 

Products Corporation, and Wire Mesh 

Corporation (collectively, the 

petitioners) submitted a timely request 

that Commerce conduct an 

administrative review.2

On August 3, 2023, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of initiation of administrative 

review with respect to imports of PC 

strand exported and/or produced by 

PJSC Stalkanat, in accordance with 

section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i).3 On August 7, 2023, 

PJSC Stalkanat filed a no shipments 

certification for the POR.4 On August 

17, 2023, we placed on the record U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

data for entries of PC strand from 

Ukraine during the POR, and invited 

interested parties to comment.5 On 

August 24, 2023, PJSC Stalkanat 

submitted comments on the CBP data. 

No interested party submitted rebuttal 

comments to Commerce. 

On September 21, 2023, Commerce 

notified all interested parties of its 

intent to rescind the instant review, in 

whole, because there were no eligible 

reviewable, suspended entries of subject 

merchandise by PJSC Stalkanat during 

the POR and invited interested parties 

to comment.6 PJSC Stalkanat submitted 

comments in favor of recission.7 No 

other interested party submitted 

comments to Commerce. 

Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is 

Commerce’s practice to rescind an 

administrative review of an AD order 

when there are no reviewable entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR for 

which liquidation is suspended.8

Normally, upon completion of an 

administrative review, the suspended 

entries are liquidated at the AD 

assessment rate calculated for the 

review period.9 Therefore, for an 

administrative review to be conducted, 

there must be at least one reviewable, 

suspended entry that Commerce can 

instruct CBP to liquidate at the AD 

assessment rate calculated for the 

review period.10 As noted above, there 

were no eligible reviewable entries of 

subject merchandise for PJSC Stalkanat 

during the POR. Accordingly, in the 

absence of suspended entries of subject 

merchandise eligible for review during 

the POR, we are hereby rescinding this 

administrative review, in its entirety, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). 

Assessment 

Commerce will instruct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. Antidumping duties shall be 

assessed at rates 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 35 days after the date of 

publication of this rescission notice in 

the Federal Register. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Order 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of the return or 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(4). 

Dated: November 27, 2023.
