SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Each year during the anniversary 

month of the publication of an 

antidumping duty (AD) or 

countervailing duty (CVD) 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 AD or CVD 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 (POR). 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 AD 

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 AD 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 October 2024,2

interested parties may request 

administrative review of the following 

orders, findings, or suspended

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(b), an interested party as 

defined by section 771(9) of the Act may 

request in writing that Commerce 

conduct an administrative review. For 

both AD and CVD reviews, the 

interested party must specify the 

individual producers or exporters 

covered by an AD finding or an AD or 

CVD order or suspension agreement for 

which it is requesting a review. In 

addition, a domestic interested party or 

an interested party described in section 

771(9)(B) of the Act must state why it 

desires Commerce to review those 

particular producers or exporters. If the 

interested party intends for Commerce 

to review sales of merchandise by an 

exporter (or a producer if that producer 

also exports merchandise from other 

suppliers) which was produced in more 

than one country of origin and each 

country of origin is subject to a separate 

order, then the interested party must 

state specifically, on an order-by-order 

basis, which exporter(s) the request is 

intended to cover. 

Note that, for any party Commerce 

was unable to locate in prior segments, 

Commerce will not accept a request for 

an administrative review of that party 

absent new information as to the party’s 

location. Moreover, if the interested 

party who files a request for review is 

unable to locate the producer or 

exporter for which it requested the 

review, the interested party must 

provide an explanation of the attempts 

it made to locate the producer or 

exporter at the same time it files its 

request for review, in order for 

Commerce to determine if the interested 

party’s attempts were reasonable, 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.303(f)(3)(ii). 

As explained in Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), and NonMarket Economy Antidumping 

Proceedings: Assessment of 

Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 

(October 24, 2011), Commerce clarified 

its practice with respect to the 

collection of final antidumping duties 

on imports of merchandise where 

intermediate firms are involved. The 

public should be aware of this 

clarification in determining whether to 

request an administrative review of 

merchandise subject to antidumping 

findings and orders.3

Commerce no longer considers the 

non-market economy (NME) entity as an 

exporter conditionally subject to an AD 

administrative review.4 Accordingly, 

the NME entity will not be under review 

unless Commerce specifically receives a 

request for, or self-initiates, a review of 

the NME entity.5 In administrative 

reviews of AD orders on merchandise 

from NME countries where a review of

11This segment has been combined with the 

ACCESS Segment Specific Information (SSI) field 

which will display the month in which the notice 

of the order or suspended investigation was 

published in the Federal Register, also known as 

the anniversary month. For example, for an order 

under case number A–000–000 that was published 

in the Federal Register in January, the relevant 

segment and SSI combination will appear in 

ACCESS as ‘‘AISL-January Anniversary.’’ Note that 

there will be only one annual inquiry service list

the NME entity has not been initiated, 

but where an individual exporter for 

which a review was initiated does not 

qualify for a separate rate, Commerce 

will issue a final decision indicating 

that the company in question is part of 

the NME entity. However, in that 

situation, because no review of the NME 

entity was conducted, the NME entity’s 

entries were not subject to the review 

and the rate for the NME entity is not 

subject to change as a result of that 

review (although the rate for the 

individual exporter may change as a 

function of the finding that the exporter 

is part of the NME entity). Following 

initiation of an AD administrative 

review when there is no review 

requested of the NME entity, Commerce 

will instruct CBP to liquidate entries for 

all exporters not named in the initiation 

notice, including those that were 

suspended at the NME entity rate. 

All requests must be filed 

electronically in Enforcement and 

Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS) on 

Enforcement and Compliance’s ACCESS 

website at https://access.trade.gov.6

Further, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.303(f)(l)(i), a copy of each request 

must be served on the petitioner and 

each exporter or producer specified in 

the request. Note that Commerce has 

amended certain of its requirements 

pertaining to the service of documents 

in 19 CFR 351.303(f).7

Commerce will publish in the Federal 

Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation of 

Administrative Review of Antidumping 

or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, 

or Suspended Investigation’’ for 

requests received by the last day of 

October 2024. If Commerce does not 

receive, by the last day of October 2024, 

a request for review of entries covered 

by an order, finding, or suspended 

investigation listed in this notice and for 

the period identified above, Commerce 

will instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

or countervailing duties on those entries 

at a rate equal to the cash deposit of 

estimated antidumping or 

countervailing duties required on those 

entries at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption and to continue to collect 

the cash deposit previously ordered. 

For the first administrative review of 

any order, there will be no assessment 

of antidumping or countervailing duties 

on entries of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption during the relevant 

provisional-measures ‘‘gap’’ period of 

the order, if such a gap period is 

applicable to the period of review. 

Establishment of and Updates to the 

Annual Inquiry Service List 

On September 20, 2021, Commerce 

published the final rule titled 

‘‘Regulations to Improve Administration 

and Enforcement of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Laws’’ in the 

Federal Register.8 On September 27, 

2021, Commerce also published the 

notice entitled ‘‘Scope Ruling 

Application; Annual Inquiry Service 

List; and Informational Sessions’’ in the 

Federal Register.9 The Final Rule and 

Procedural Guidance provide that 

Commerce will maintain an annual 

inquiry service list for each order or 

suspended investigation, and any 

interested party submitting a scope 

ruling application or request for 

circumvention inquiry shall serve a 

copy of the application or request on the 

persons on the annual inquiry service 

list for that order, as well as any 

companion order covering the same 

merchandise from the same country of 

origin.10

In accordance with the Procedural 

Guidance, for orders published in the 

Federal Register before November 4, 

2021, Commerce created an annual 

inquiry service list segment for each 

order and suspended investigation. 

Interested parties who wished to be 

added to the annual inquiry service list 

for an order submitted an entry of 

appearance to the annual inquiry 

service list segment for the order in 

ACCESS and, on November 4, 2021, 

Commerce finalized the initial annual 

inquiry service lists for each order and 

suspended investigation. Each annual 

inquiry service list has been saved as a 

public service list in ACCESS, under 

each case number, and under a specific 

segment type called ‘‘AISL-Annual 

Inquiry Service List.’’ 11

As mentioned in the Procedural 

Guidance, beginning in January 2022, 

Commerce will update these annual 

inquiry service lists on an annual basis 

when the Opportunity Notice for the 

anniversary month of the order or 

suspended investigation is published in 

the Federal Register.12 Accordingly, 

Commerce will update the annual 

inquiry service lists for the above-listed 

AD and CVD proceedings. All interested 

parties wishing to appear on the 

updated annual inquiry service list must 

take one of the two following actions: 

(1) new interested parties who did not 

previously submit an entry of 

appearance must submit a new entry of 

appearance at this time; (2) interested 

parties who were included in the 

preceding annual inquiry service list 

must submit an amended entry of 

appearance to be included in the next 

year’s annual inquiry service list. For 

these interested parties, Commerce will 

change the entry of appearance status 

from ‘‘Active’’ to ‘‘Needs Amendment’’ 

for the annual inquiry service lists 

corresponding to the above-listed 

proceedings. This will allow those 

interested parties to make any necessary 

amendments and resubmit their entries 

of appearance. If no amendments need 

to be made, the interested party should 

indicate in the area on the ACCESS form 

requesting an explanation for the 

amendment that it is resubmitting its 

entry of appearance for inclusion in the 

annual inquiry service list for the 

following year. As mentioned in the 

Final Rule,13 once the petitioners and 

foreign governments have submitted an 

entry of appearance for the first time, 

they will automatically be added to the 

updated annual inquiry service list each 

year. 

Interested parties have 30 days after 

the date of this notice to submit new or 

amended entries of appearance. 

Commerce will then finalize the annual 

inquiry service lists five business days 

thereafter. For ease of administration, 

please note that Commerce requests that 

law firms with more than one attorney 

representing interested parties in a 

proceeding designate a lead attorney to 

be included on the annual inquiry 

service list. 

Commerce may update an annual 

inquiry service list at any time as 

needed based on interested parties’ 

amendments to their entries of 

appearance to remove or otherwise 

modify their list of members and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 16, 2018, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on low melt 

polyester staple fiber (low melt PSF) 

from the Republic of Korea (Korea).1 On 

October 18, 2023, based on a timely 

request for review, in accordance with 

19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an 

administrative review on low melt PSF 

from Korea.2 The review covers one 

producer/exporter of the subject 

merchandise, Toray Advanced Materials 

Korea, Inc. (TAK). 

On April 8, 2024, Commerce extended 

the deadline for the preliminary results 

of this administrative review until 

August 30, 2024.3 On July 22, 2024, 

Commerce tolled certain deadlines in 

this administrative proceeding by seven 

days.4 The deadline for the preliminary
