Large Power Transformers From the 

Republic of Korea: Preliminary Results 

and Rescission, in Part, of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 2022–2023 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily 

finds that Iljin Electric Co., Ltd. (Iljin), 

and non-individually examined 

companies for which a review was 

requested, made sales of large power 

transformers from the Republic of Korea 

(Korea) at prices below normal value 

(NV) during the period of review (POR) 

of August 1, 2022, through July 31, 

2023. Commerce also preliminarily 

finds that HD Hyundai Electric Co., Ltd. 

(Hyundai) did not make sales of large 

power transformers from Korea at prices 

below NV during the POR. Additionally, 

Commerce is rescinding this 

administrative review, in part, with 

respect Hyosung Heavy Industries 

Corporation (Hyosung) because 

Hyosung had no entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR. We invite 

interested parties to comment on these 

preliminary results. 

DATES: Applicable September 13, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the 

antidumping duty order on large power 

transformers on August 31, 2012.1

Commerce provided an opportunity to 

request an administrative review on 

August 2, 2023.2 On August 31, 2023, 

we received requests to conduct an 

administrative review from Iljin,3

Hyundai,4 and Hitachi Energy USA, Inc. 

and Prolec-GE Waukesha, Inc. (the 

petitioners).5 Commerce initiated this 

review on October 18, 2023.6 We 

selected two mandatory respondents in 

this review, Hyundai and Iljin. For a 

more detailed description of the events 

that followed the initiation of this 

review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.7

Scope of the Order 

The scope of this Order covers large 

liquid dielectric power transformers 

having a top power handling capacity 

greater than or equal to 60,000 kilovolt 

amperes (60 megavolt amperes), 

whether assembled or unassembled, 

complete or incomplete.8

Partial Rescission of Review 

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

Commerce’s practice to rescind an 

administrative review of an 

antidumping duty order when there are 

no reviewable entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR for which 

liquidation is suspended.9 Normally, 

upon completion of an administrative 

review, the suspended entries are 

liquidated at the antidumping duty 

assessment rate calculated for the 

review period.10 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 

antidumping duty assessment rate 

calculated for the review period.11

There were no entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR for

12See Memorandum, ‘‘Release of U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection Import Data,’’ dated 

November 14, 2023. 13See Memorandum, ‘‘Notice of Intent To 

Rescind Review, In Part,’’ dated August 22, 2024. 

14For the first administrative review of the Order, 

Commerce initiated the administrative review on 

multiple companies, including Iljin Electric Co., 

Ltd. and ILJIN. See Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and 

Request for Revocation in Part, 78 FR 60834, 60836 

(October 2, 2013). Commerce did not select either 

ILJIN or Iljin Electric Co., Ltd. for individual 

examination, but did assign margins for both 

entities. See Large Power Transformers from the 

Republic of Korea: Amended Final Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2012– 

2013, 80 FR 26001 (May 6, 2015). The current 

administrative review is the first review in which 

either Iljin Electric Co., Ltd. or ILJIN was selected 

for individual examination. Record evidence 

indicates that Iljin Electric Co., Ltd. is the only 

entity in Korea with the Iljin name that produces 

LPTs. See Iljin’s Letter, ‘‘Response to the 

Department’s March 29 Supplemental 

Questionnaire,’’ dated April 26, 2024 (Iljin SAQR), 

at page 2. Therefore, we preliminarily find that 

ILJIN and Iljin Electric Co., Ltd. are the same entity. 

Parties are invited to comment for the final results. 

15See 19 CFR 351.309(d); see also Administrative 

Protective Order, Service, and Other Procedures in 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings,

Service Final Rule). 

16See 19 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2). 

17We use the term ‘‘issue’’ here to describe an 

argument that Commerce would normally address 

in a comment of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

18See APO and Service Final Rule. 

Hyosung.12 As a result, on August 22, 

2024, Commerce notified all interested 

parties of its intent to rescind this 

review, in part, with respect to Hyosung 

and received no comments.13 Therefore, 

we are rescinding this administrative 

review with respect to Hyosung. The 

administrative review remains active 

with respect to the three other 

companies upon which we initiated this 

review. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(2) 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 

the appendix 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. 

Rate for Non-Selected Respondents 

The statute and Commerce’s 

regulations do not address the 

establishment of a rate to be applied to 

companies not selected for individual 

examination when Commerce limits its 

examination in an administrative review 

pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the 

Act. Generally, Commerce looks to 

section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which 

provides instructions for calculating the 

all-others rate in a market economy 

investigation, for guidance when 

calculating the rate for companies 

which were not selected for individual 

examination in an administrative 

review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of 

the Act, the all-others rate is normally 

‘‘an amount equal to the weighted 

average of the estimated weighted 

average dumping margins established 

for exporters and producers 

individually investigated, excluding any 

zero or de minimis margins, and any 

margins determined entirely {on the 

basis of facts available}.’’ In this review, 

only one mandatory respondent (i.e., 

Iljin) has received a weighted-average 

dumping margin which is not that did 

not get a rate that is zero, de minims, or 

determined entirely on the basis of facts 

available. Accordingly, we have applied 

the rate calculated for Iljin, 10.61 

percent, to the non-selected companies. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

We preliminarily determine the 

following estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins exist during the 

period August 1, 2022, through July 31, 

2023: 

Producer/exporter 

Weightedaverage

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce intends to disclose its 

calculations and analysis performed to 

interested parties for these preliminary 

results within five days of any public 

announcement or, if there is no public 

announcement, within five days of the 

date of publication of this notice in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), 

interested parties may submit case briefs 

or other written comments to the 

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and 

Compliance no later than 30 days after 

the date of publication of this notice. 

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.15 Interested parties who 

submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in 

this proceeding must submit: (1) a table 

of contents listing each issue; and (2) a 

table of authorities.16

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 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.17 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 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).18

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. 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. An electronically 

filed hearing request must be received 

successfully in its entirety by 

Commerce’s electronic records system, 

ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern Time within 

30 days after the date of publication of 

this notice. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon issuing the final results, 

Commerce shall determine, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries. For any 

individually examined respondent 

whose weighted-average dumping 

margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., 

less than 0.5 percent) in the final results 

of this review and the respondent 

reported entered values, we will 

calculate importer-specific ad valorem 

assessment rates for the merchandise 

based on 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 the respondent 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. Where an importer-specific 

ad valorem 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 

antidumping duties in accordance with 

19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). If a respondent’s 

weighted-average dumping margin is 

zero or de minimis in the final results 

of review, we will instruct CBP not to 

assess duties on any of its entries in 

accordance with the Final Modification 

for Reviews, i.e., ‘‘{w}here the weightedaverage margin of dumping for the 

exporter is determined to be zero or de 

minimis, no antidumping duties will be 

assessed.’’ 19

In accordance with Commerce’s 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice,20 for 

entries of subject merchandise during 

the review period produced by each 

respondent for which it did not know its 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate of 22.00 percent established 

in the investigation.21

For the company which was not 

selected for individual review (i.e., LS 

Electric Co., Ltd.), we will assign an 

assessment rate based on the weighted 

average of the estimated dumping 

margins established for companies 

selected for mandatory review, 

excluding any zero and de minimis 

margins, and any margins determined 

based entirely on facts available.22 The 

final results of this review shall be the 

basis for the assessment of antidumping 

duties on entries of merchandise 

covered by the final results of this 

review and for future deposits of 

estimated duties, where applicable.23

With respect to the company for 

which we have rescinded this review in 

part (i.e., Hyosung), Commerce intends 

to instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

duties on all appropriate entries at rates 

equal to the cash deposit rate of 

estimated antidumping duties required 

at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 

warehouse, for consumption, during the 

POR, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to 

issue these rescission instructions to 

CBP no earlier than 35 days after the 

date of publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register. 

Commerce intends 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). The final 

results of this administrative review 

shall be the basis for the assessment of 

antidumping duties on entries of 

merchandise under review and for 

future cash deposits of estimated 

antidumping duties, where applicable. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review 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 Iljin, Hyundai and 

other companies listed above will be 

equal to the weighted-average dumping 

margin established in the final results of 

this administrative review; (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 they were 

reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not a firm 

covered in this review, a prior review, 

or in the investigation 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 22.00 percent, 

the rate established in the investigation 

of this proceeding.24 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Final Results of the Review 

Unless the deadline is otherwise 

extended, Commerce intends to issue 

the final results of this administrative 

review, including the results of its 

analysis of issues raised by interested 

parties in the written briefs, no later 

than 120 days after the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, pursuant to section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.213(h)(1). 

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 

antidumping and/or countervailing 

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 and/or countervailing 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties, and/or an increase in the amount 

of antidumping duties by the amount of 

countervailing duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

Commerce is issuing and publishing 

this notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, 19 

CFR 351.213(h)(2), and 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(4).
