16We use the term ‘‘issue’’ here to describe an 

argument that Commerce would normally address 

in a comment of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

17See APO and Service Procedures. 

18See 19 CFR 351.310(d). 

ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on 

the established deadline. 

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 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.16 Further, we 

request that interested parties limited 

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 public 

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).17

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, filed electronically via 

ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time 

within 30 days after the date of 

publication of this notice. 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. Oral 

presentations at the hearing will be 

limited to issues raised in the briefs. If 

a request for a hearing is made, 

Commerce will inform parties of the 

schedule date for the hearing.18

Assessment Rates 

Consistent with section 751(a)(1) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), upon 

issuance of the final results, Commerce 

shall determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

countervailing duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review. 

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., without 90 days of 

publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

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

Act, upon publication of the final 

results, Commerce intends to instruct 

CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties for each 

of the companies listed above on 

shipments of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review, except where the 

rate calculated in the final results is zero 

or de minimis. For all non-reviewed 

firms, we will instruct CBP to continue 

to collect cash deposits of estimated 

countervailing duties at the all-others 

rate or the most recent company-specific 

rate applicable to the company, as 

appropriate. These cash deposit 

instructions, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Final Results 

Unless the deadline is extended 

pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(a) of the 

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

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of its analysis of 

issues by the parties in any written 

briefs, no later than 120 days after the 

date of publication of these preliminary 

results. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 20, 2021, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty Order on metal 

lockers from China.1 On August 2, 2023, 

Commerce published a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of the Order for the POR in the 

Federal Register.2 On October 18, 2023, 

in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce published a 

notice of initiation for this 

administrative review in response to 

requests to review by interested parties.3

On April 9, 2024, we extended the 

deadline for these preliminary results, 

in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

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

until August 30, 2024.4 On July 22, 

2024, Commerce tolled certain 

deadlines in this administrative 

proceeding by seven days.5 As a result, 

the deadline for these preliminary 

results is now September 6, 2024. 

For a complete description of the 

events that followed the initiation of 

this administrative review, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.6 A 

list of topics included in the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is 

included as an appendix to this notice. 

The Preliminary 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 Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum can be found at 

https://access.trade.gov/public/ 

FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by the Order 

are metal lockers from China. For a 

complete description of the Order, see 

the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

Partial Rescission of Review 

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

based on the timely withdrawal of the 

requests for review, we are rescinding 

this administrative review with respect 

to: (1) Zhejiang Safewell Security 

Technology Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang 

Safewell); (2) Ningbo Safewell Group 

Smart Security Products Co., Ltd. 

(Ningbo Safewell); (3) Ningbo Safewell 

Safes; (4) Xpedition LLC (doing business 

as (DBA) Safewell Gr.) (Xpedition); and 

(5) Safewell Group Holdings, Ltd. 

(Safewell Group).7 Furthermore, on 

April 15, 2024, Commerce notified 

interested parties of its intent to rescind 

the review with respect to the 

companies which had no reviewable 

suspended entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR, 

specifically with respect to: (1) Kunshan 

Dongchu Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. 

(Kunshan Dongchu); and (2) Tianjin Jia 

Mei Metal Furniture Ltd. (Tianjin Jia 

Mei).8 Commerce did not receive 

comments regarding its intent to rescind 

the review, in part, and as a result, 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), in the 

absence of any suspended entries during 

the POR from certain companies subject 

to the review, Commerce is rescinding 

the review with respect to Kunshan 

Dongchu and Tianjin Jia Mei.9

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments 

Based on the no-shipment 

certification provided by Zhejiang 

Xingyi Metal Products Co., Ltd. 

(ZXM),10 as corroborated by the 

comments provided by mandatory 

respondent Xingyi Metalworking 

Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. (XMT) 

in response to our release of U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

entry data for the purpose of respondent 

selection,11 we preliminarily determine 

that ZXM did not have any shipments 

of subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. However, we 

intend to request information from CBP 

to confirm that there were no entries 

attributable to ZXM in the POR.12

Further, on April 2, 2024, Commerce 

notified parties that, as a result of its 

final results of changed circumstances 

review,13 Commerce determined it 

necessary to deselect and not examine 

Jiangsu Wanlong Special Containers Co., 

Ltd. (Jiangsu Wanlong) as a mandatory 

respondent, specifically because the 

record demonstrates that its entries 

during the POR are not subject to the 

Orders.14 Accordingly, we also 

preliminarily determine that Jiangsu 

Wanlong did not have any shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. Consistent with 

Commerce’s practice in non-market 

economy (NME) cases, we have not 

rescinded the review with respect to 

Jiangsu Wanlong and ZXM, but we will 

continue the review of these companies 

and issue instructions to CBP based on 

the final results of the review.15

The China-Wide Entity 

Under Commerce’s policy regarding 

the conditional review of the Chinawide entity,16 the China-wide entity 

will not be under review unless a party 

specifically requests, or Commerce selfinitiates, a review of the entity. Because 

no party requested a review of the 

China-wide entity in this review, the 

entity is not under review, and the

entity’s rate (i.e., 322.25 percent) is not 

subject to change. For additional 

information, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) 

of the Act. Commerce has calculated 

export prices in accordance with section 

772(a) of the Act and constructed export 

prices in accordance with section 772(b) 

of the Act. Because China is an NME, 

within the meaning of section 771(18) of 

the Act, Commerce has calculated 

normal value (NV) in accordance with 

section 773(c) of the Act. For a full 

description of the methodology 

underlying Commerce’s preliminary 

results, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Preliminary Results of Review

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce intends to disclose the 

calculations performed in connection 

with these preliminary results to 

interested parties within five days after 

the date of publication of this notice, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Interested parties may submit case briefs 

no later than 30 days after the date of 

publication of these preliminary results 

of review.17 Rebuttal briefs, limited to 

issues raised in case briefs, may be 

submitted no later than five days after 

the deadline date for case briefs.18 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.19 Further, we 

request that interested parties limit their 

public executive summary of each issue 

to no more than 450 words, not 

including citations. We intend to use 

the public 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 public executive 

summary of each issue. Case and 

rebuttal briefs should be filed using 

ACCESS.20 Note that Commerce has 

amended certain of its requirements 

pertaining to the service of documents 

in 19 CFR 351.303(f).21

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, filed electronically via 

Commerce’s electric records system, 

ACCESS. An electronically-filed request 

must be received successfully in its 

entirety by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time 

within 30 days after the date of 

publication of this notice.22 Requests 

should contain the party’s name, 

address, and telephone number, the 

number of participants, whether any 

participant is a foreign national, and a 

list of the issues to be discussed. If a 

request for a hearing is made, Commerce 

intends to hold the hearing at a time and 

date to be determined.23 Parties should 

confirm by telephone the date and time 

of the hearing two days before the 

scheduled date. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon issuance of the final results, 

Commerce will determine, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries covered by this 

review, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1). Commerce intends to 

issue assessment instructions to CBP 35 

days after the publication of the final 

results of this review. 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). 

We will calculate importer/customerspecific assessment rates equal to the 

ratio of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for examined sales to a 

particular importer/customer to the total 

entered value of those sales, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).24

Where the respondents reported reliable 

entered values, Commerce intends to 

calculate importer/customer-specific ad 

valorem assessment rates by dividing 

the total amount of dumping calculated 

for all reviewed U.S. sales to the 

importer/customer by the total entered 

value of the merchandise sold to the 

importer/customer.25 Where the 

respondents did not report entered 

values, Commerce will calculate 

importer/customer-specific assessment 

rates by dividing the total amount of 

dumping calculated for all reviewed 

U.S. sales to the importer/customer by 

the total quantity of those sales. 

Commerce will calculate an estimated 

ad valorem importer/customer-specific 

assessment rate to determine whether 

the per-unit assessment rate is de 

minimis; however, Commerce will use 

the per-unit assessment rate where 

entered values were not reported.26

Where an importer/customer-specific ad 

valorem assessment rate is not zero or 

de minimis, Commerce will instruct 

CBP to collect the appropriate duties at 

the time of liquidation. Where either the 

respondents’ ad valorem weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de 

minimis, or an importer/customerspecific ad valorem assessment rate is 

zero or de minimis,27 Commerce will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties. 

Pursuant to Commerce’s refinement to 

its practice, for sales that were not 

reported in the U.S. sales database 

submitted by a respondent individually 

examined during this review, Commerce 

will instruct CBP to liquidate the entry 

of such merchandise at the dumping 

margin assigned to the China-wide 

entity.28 Additionally, where Commerce 

determines that an exporter under 

review had no shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR, any 

suspended entries of subject 

merchandise that entered under that 

exporter’s CBP case number during the 

POR will be liquidated at the 

antidumping duty assessment rate for 

the China-wide entity. 

For the companies for which this 

review is rescinded with these 

preliminary results, we will instruct 

CBP to assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries at a rate equal to the 

cash deposit 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)(l)(i). 

For the companies rescinded from 

review, Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP 35 days 

after the publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register. 

In accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, 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 ADs, where 

applicable. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

review for all shipments of the subject 

merchandise from China entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the notice of the final 

results of administrative review in the 

Federal Register, as provided for by 

section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for 

the companies that have a separate rate, 

the cash deposit rate will be that rate 

established in the final results of this 

review (except, if the rate is de minimis, 

then a cash deposit rate of zero will be 

required); (2) for previously investigated 

or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese 

exporters for which a review was not 

requested and that received a separate 

rate in a prior segment of this 

proceeding, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate; (3) for all Chinese 

exporters of subject merchandise that 

have not been found to be entitled to a 

separate rate, the cash deposit rate will 

be the rate for the China-wide entity 

(i.e., 322.25 percent); and (4) for all nonChinese exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not received 

their own rate, the cash deposit rate will 

be the rate applicable to the Chinese 

exporter that supplied that non-Chinese 

exporter. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, we intend 

to issue the final results of this 

administrative review, which will 

include the results of our analysis of the 

issues raised in the case and rebuttal 

briefs, within 120 days of publication of 

these preliminary results in the Federal 

Register, pursuant to section 

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

351.213(h). 

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 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
