3 In accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b)(1), parties 

should specify that they are requesting a review of 

entries from exporters comprising the entity, and to 

the extent possible, include the names of such 

exporters in their request.

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 the 

Department was unable to locate in 

prior segments, the Department 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 the Secretary 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) the Department 

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.2

Further, as explained in Antidumping 

Proceedings: Announcement of Change 

in Department Practice for Respondent 

Selection in Antidumping Duty 

Proceedings and Conditional Review of 

the Nonmarket Economy Entity in NME 

Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 

65963 (November 4, 2013), the 

Department clarified its practice with 

regard to the conditional review of the 

non-market economy (NME) entity in 

administrative reviews of antidumping 

duty orders. The Department will no 

longer consider the NME entity as an 

exporter conditionally subject to 

administrative reviews. Accordingly, 

the NME entity will not be under review 

unless the Department specifically 

receives a request for, or self-initiates, a 

review of the NME entity.3 In 

administrative reviews of antidumping 

duty orders on merchandise from NME 

countries where a review of 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, the Department 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 

antidumping administrative review 

when there is no review requested of the 

NME entity, the Department 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 Web site at http://

access.trade.gov. 4 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. 

The Department 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 February 2015. If the 

Department does not receive, by the last 

day of February 2015, a request for 

review of entries covered by an order, 

finding, or suspended investigation 

listed in this notice and for the period 

identified above, the Department will 

instruct CBP to assess antidumping or 

countervailing duties on those entries at 

a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or 

bond for) 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. 

This notice is not required by statute 

but is published as a service to the 

international trading community.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 

and Countervailing Duty Operations.

The Council is intended to facilitate 

the exchange of information and 

encourage bilateral discussions of 

business and economic issues, 

including promoting bilateral trade and 

investment and improving the business 

climate in each country. The Council 

brings together the respective business 

communities of the United States and 

Turkey to discuss such issues of mutual 

interest and to communicate their joint 

recommendations to the U.S. and 

Turkish Governments. The Council 

consists of the U.S. and Turkish cochairs and a Committee comprised of 

private sector members. The Committee 

is composed of two Sections of private 

sector members, a U.S. Section and a 

Turkish Section, each consisting of 

approximately ten to twelve members, 

representing the views and interests of 

their respective private sector business 

communities. Each government will 

appoint the members to its respective 

Section. The Committee will provide 

joint recommendations to the two 

governments that reflect private sector 

views, needs, and concerns regarding 

creation of an environment in which the 

private sectors of both countries can 

partner, thrive, and enhance bilateral 

commercial ties that could form the 

basis for expanded trade and investment 

between the United States and Turkey. 

The Department of Commerce is 

currently seeking applicants for 

membership on the U.S. Section of the 

Committee. Each applicant must be a 

senior-level executive of a U.S.-owned

legally authorized to work in the United 

States, and be able to travel to Turkey

continue to serve as members of the U.S. 

Section of the Committee if the member

Evaluation of applications for

Business Council. In selecting members 

of the U.S. Section, the Department of 

Commerce will also seek to ensure that 

the Section represents a diversity of 

business sectors and geographical 

locations, as well as a cross-section of 

small, medium, and large-sized firms. 

U.S. members will receive no 

compensation for their participation in 

Council-related activities. They shall 

not be considered as special government 

employees. Individual private sector 

members will be responsible for all 

travel and related expenses associated 

with their participation in the Council,
