 AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
 SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on certain softwood lumber products (softwood lumber) from Canada. The period of review (POR) is January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022. Commerce preliminarily determines that the producers/exporters subject to this review made sales of subject merchandise at less than normal value. In addition, with respect to Smartlam LLC (Smartlam), we are preliminarily rescinding this administrative review because Smartlam did not have any reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary results.
 DATES: Applicable February 6, 2024.
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jeff Pedersen (Canfor) and Maisha Cryor (West Fraser), AD/CVD Operations, Office IV, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-2769 and (202) 482-5831, respectively.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Background On March 14, 2023, based on timely requests for administrative reviews, Commerce initiated an AD administrative review covering 309 companies and has not rescinded the review of any of these companies.[1]
                    
                     Thus, the review covers 309 producers/exporters of the subject merchandise, including mandatory respondents 
                    ( print page 8153)
                    Canfor [2]
                    
                     and West Fraser,[3]
                    
                     and Smartlam, which we preliminary find had no shipments during the POR and for which we are preliminarily rescinding its review. On August 30, 2023, we extended the preliminary results until January 31, 2024.[4] Scope of the Order The product covered by this order is softwood lumber from Canada. For a full description of the scope, 
                    *see*
                     the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.[5] Preliminary Partial Rescission of Administrative Review Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to rescind an administrative review of an AD order where it concludes that there were no reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR for an exporter or producer. Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the suspended entries are liquidated at the AD assessment rate for the review period.[6]
                    
                     Therefore, for an administrative review to be conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce can instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate at the calculated AD assessment rate for the review period.[7] Based on our analysis of CBP data [8]
                    
                     and comments received from interested parties,[9]
                    
                     we preliminarily determine that Smartlam had no reviewable shipments, sales, or entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Accordingly, absent evidence of a shipment on the record from Smartlam during the POR, Commerce intends to rescind its review of Smartlam, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). Methodology Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For a full description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, 
                    *see*
                     the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. A list of the topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as Appendix I to this notice. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is made available to the public 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 Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at 
                    *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.* Preliminary Results of Review We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022: Exporter/producer

 Rate for Companies Not Individually Examined Generally, when calculating margins for non-selected respondents, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act for guidance, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation. Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act provides that when calculating the all-others rate, Commerce will exclude any zero and 
                    *de minimis*
                     weighted-average dumping margins, as well as any weighted-average dumping margins based on total facts available. Accordingly, Commerce's usual practice has been to average the margins for selected respondents, excluding margins that are zero, 
                    *de minimis,*
                     or based entirely on facts available. In this review, we calculated a weighted-average dumping margin of 9.65 percent for Canfor and 5.33 percent for West Fraser. In accordance with section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, Commerce assigned the weighted-average of these two calculated weighted-average dumping margins based on their publicly ranged sales data, 7.15 percent, to the non-selected companies in these preliminary results.[10] Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these preliminary results to the interested parties within five days after public announcement of the preliminary results in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Public Comment Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), interested parties may submit case briefs to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance not later than 30 days after the date of publication of this notice, unless Commerce alters the time limit. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in the case briefs, may be filed not later than five days after the date for filing case briefs.[11]
                    
                     Interested parties who submit case or rebuttal briefs in this proceeding must submit: (1) a table of contents listing each issue; and (2) a table of authorities.[12] 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 brief that should be limited to five pages total, including footnotes. In this administrative review, we instead request that interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a public, executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.[13]
                    
                     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 
                    ( print page 8154)
                    memorandum that will accompany the final results in this administrative review. 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).[14] 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, filed electronically via ACCESS. An electronically filed document must be received successfully in its entirety via ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice.[15]
                    
                     Requests should contain: (1) the party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of issues to be discussed. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to those raised in the respective case briefs. 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, not later than 120 days after the date of publication of these preliminary results in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, unless extended. Assessment Rate Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and CBP shall assess, ADs on all appropriate entries covered by this review.[16]
                    
                     If a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is above 
                    *de minimis*
                     in the final results of this review, we will calculate an importer-specific assessment rate based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total entered value of the sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).[17]
                    
                     If a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin or an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or 
                    *de minimis*
                     in the final results of review, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to ADs in accordance with the 
                    *Final Modification for Reviews.*[18]
                    
                     If, in the final results, we continue to find that the administrative review for Smartlam should be rescinded, then we will instruct CBP to liquidate any suspended entries that entered under its AD case number (
                    *i.e.,*
                     at that exporter's rate) at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. The final results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment of ADs on entries of merchandise under review and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable. We intend to issue liquidation instructions to CBP no earlier than 41 days after 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 statutory injunction has expired (
                    *i.e.,*
                     within 90 days of publication). Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements for estimated ADs will be effective upon publication of the notice of final results of this review for all shipments of softwood lumber from Canada 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 dumping margin established in the final results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by companies not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published 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 (LTFV) investigation but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently completed segment for the producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be the 6.04 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.[19]
                    
                     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 ADs and/or countervailing duties (CVDs) prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this period of review. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of ADs and/or CVDs occurred and the subsequent assessment of double ADs, and/or an increase in the amount of ADs by the amount of the CVDs. Notification to Interested Parties Commerce is issuing and publishing these results in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4). Dated: January 31, 2024. Abdelali Elouaradia, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
