 AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
 SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (“the Department”) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on frontseating service valves from the People's Republic of China (“PRC”). The period of review (“POR”) is April 1, 2013, through April 28, 2014. The review covers one exporter of the subject merchandise, Zhejiang Sanhua Co., Ltd. (“Sanhua”). The Department preliminarily finds that Sanhua made no sales of subject merchandise at less than normal value during the POR. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.
 DATES: *Effective Date:*
                         April 8, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by this order is frontseating service valves, assembled or unassembled, complete or incomplete, and certain parts thereof of any size, configuration, material composition or connection type.[1]
                    
                     Frontseating service valves are classified under subheading 8481.80.1095, and also have been classified under subheading 8415.90.80.85, of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”). It is possible for frontseating service valves to be manufactured out of primary materials other than copper and brass, in which case they would be classified under HTSUS subheadings 8481.80.3040, 8481.80.3090, or 8481.80.5090. In addition, if unassembled or incomplete frontseating service valves are imported, the various parts or components would be classified under HTSUS subheadings 8481.90.1000, 8481.90.3000, or 8481.90.5000. The HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, but the written description of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive. Methodology The Department conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”). Constructed export prices are calculated in accordance with section 772(b) of the Act. Because the PRC is a non-market economy (“NME”) within the meaning of section 771(18) of the Act, normal value is calculated in accordance with section 773(c) of the Act. For a full description of the methodology underlying our preliminary results, 
                    *see*
                     the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 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”).[2]
                    
                     ACCESS is available to registered users at 
                    *http://access.trade.gov*
                     and in the Central Records Unit, room 7046 of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the internet at 
                    *http://www.trade.gov/​enforcement/​.*
                     The signed Preliminary Decision Memorandum and the electronic version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content. A list of the topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, is attached as the Appendix to this notice. Preliminary Results of Review The Department preliminarily determines that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the POR April 1, 2013, through April 28, 2014: Exporter

 Disclosure and Public Comment The Department intends to disclose to the parties the calculations performed for these preliminary results within five days of the date of publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Interested parties may submit written comments no later than 30 days after the date of publication of these preliminary results of review.[3]
                    
                     Rebuttals to written comments may be filed no later than 
                    ( print page 18812)
                    five days after the written comments are filed.[4] Any interested party may request a hearing within 30 days of publication of this notice.[5]
                    
                     Hearing requests should contain the following information: (1) The party's name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of the issues to be discussed. Oral presentations will be limited to issues raised in the briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, parties will be notified of the time and date for the hearing to be held at the U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230.[6] Unless otherwise extended, the Department intends to issue the final results of this administrative review, which will include the results of its analysis of issues raised in any such comments, within 120 days of publication of these preliminary results, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. Assessment Rates Upon issuance of the final results of this review, the Department will determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.[7]
                    
                     The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of the final results of this review. For any individually examined respondent whose weighted-average dumping margin is above 
                    *de minimis,*
                     we will calculate importer-specific 
                    *ad valorem*
                     duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).[8]
                    
                     For duty assessment rates calculated on this basis, we will direct CBP to assess the resulting 
                    *ad valorem*
                     rate against the entered customs values for the subject merchandise. The Department announced a refinement to its assessment practice in NME cases. Pursuant to this refinement in practice, for entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales databases submitted by companies individually examined during this review, the Department will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the PRC-wide rate. In addition, if the Department determines that an exporter under review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries that entered under that exporter's case number (
                    *i.e.,*
                     at that exporter's rate) will be liquidated at the PRC-wide rate.[9] 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. Cash Deposit Requirements Because the antidumping duty order on frontseating service valves from the PRC was revoked,[10]
                    
                     the Department will not issue cash deposit instructions at the conclusion of this administrative review. 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 duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. We are issuing and publishing notice of these results in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: March 31, 2015. Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
