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 

representatives, or to update contact 

information. Any changes or 

announcements pertaining to these 

procedures will be posted to the 

ACCESS website at https://

access.trade.gov. 

Special Instructions for Petitioners and 

Foreign Governments 

In the Final Rule, Commerce stated 

that, ‘‘after an initial request and 

placement on the annual inquiry service 

list, both petitioners and foreign 

governments will automatically be 

placed on the annual inquiry service list 

in the years that follow.’’ 14

Accordingly, as stated above and 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.225(n)(3), the 

petitioners and foreign governments 

will not need to resubmit their entries 

of appearance each year to continue to 

be included on the annual inquiry 

service list. However, the petitioners 

and foreign governments are responsible 

for making amendments to their entries 

of appearance during the annual update 

to the annual inquiry service list in 

accordance with the procedures 

described above. 

This notice is not required by statute 

but is published as a service to the 

international trading community.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

This preliminary determination is 

made in accordance with section 703(b) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act). Commerce published the 

notice of initiation of this countervailing 

duty (CVD) investigation on July 17, 

2024.1 On July 22, 2024, Commerce

days.2 On September 6, 2024, 

Commerce postponed the preliminary 

determination of this investigation until 

November 25, 2024.3

For a complete description of the 

events that followed the initiation of 

this investigation, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.4 A list of topics 

discussed in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is included as Appendix 

II 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 accessed directly 

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

FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are brake drums from 

Tu ̈rkiye. For a complete description of 

the scope of this investigation, see 

Appendix I. 

Scope Comments 

In accordance with the Preamble to 

Commerce’s regulations,5 the Initiation 

Notice set aside a period of time for 

parties to raise issues regarding product 

coverage, (i.e., scope).6 Certain 

interested parties commented on the 

scope of the investigation as it appeared 

in the Initiation Notice. Commerce 

intends to issue its preliminary decision 

regarding comments concerning the 

scope of the antidumping (AD) and CVD 

investigations in the preliminary 

determinations of the companion AD 

investigations. We will incorporate the 

scope decisions from the AD 

investigations into the scope of the final 

CVD determination for this investigation 

after considering any relevant comments 

submitted in scope case and rebuttal 

briefs.7

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this 

investigation in accordance with section 

701 of the Act. For each of the subsidy 

programs found countervailable, 

Commerce preliminarily determines 

that there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial 

contribution by an ‘‘authority’’ that 

gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, 

and that the subsidy is specific.8 For a 

full description of the methodology 

underlying our preliminarily 

determination, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Commerce notes that, in making its 

findings, it relied, in part, on facts 

available and, because it finds that one 

or more entities did not act to the best 

of their ability to respond to 

Commerce’s requests for information, it 

drew an adverse inference where 

appropriate in selecting from among the 

facts otherwise available.9 For further 

information, see the ‘‘Use of Facts 

Otherwise Available and Adverse 

Inferences’’ section in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Alignment 

As noted in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum, in accordance with 

section 705(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.210(b)(4), Commerce is aligning the 

final CVD determination in this 

investigation with the final 

determination in the concurrent AD 

investigation of brake drums from 

Tu ̈rkiye based on a request made by the 

petitioner.10 Consequently, the final 

CVD determination will be issued on 

the same date as the final AD 

determination, which is currently 

scheduled to be issued no later than 

April 8, 2025 unless postponed.11

All-Others Rate 

Sections 703(d) and 705(c)(5)(A) of 

the Act provide that in the preliminary 

determination, Commerce shall 

determine an estimated all-others rate 

for companies not individually 

examined. Section 705(c)(5)(A)(i) of the 

Act states that for companies not 

individually investigated, Commerce 

will determine an ‘‘all-others’’ rate equal 

to the weighted average countervailable 

subsidy rates established for exporters 

and producers individually 

investigated, excluding any zero and de 

minimis countervailable subsidy rates, 

and any rates determined entirely under 

section 776 of the Act. If the rates 

established for all exporters and 

producers individually investigated are 

zero, de minimis, or determined entirely 

under facts available, Commerce may 

use any reasonable method to establish 

an all-others rate.12

In this investigation, Commerce 

preliminarily calculated an individual 

countervailable subsidy rate for EKU 

Fren ve Dok. San. A.S. (EKU) that is de 

minimis. Further, Commerce has 

preliminarily determined Akkus Dokum 

San.Ve Tic.Ltd.Sti’s, Buyuk Eker Bijon 

Sanayi Ve Ticaret’s, and Genk Otomotiv 

San.Dis Tic.Ltd.Sti.’s rates entirely 

under facts available with an adverse 

inference pursuant to section 776 of the 

Act. Therefore, in accordance with 

section 705(c)(5)(A)(ii) of the Act, we 

are preliminarily applying a simple 

average of the subsidy rates calculated 

for Akkus Dokum San.Ve Tic.Ltd.Sti, 

Buyuk Eker Bijon Sanayi Ve Ticaret, 

Genk Otomotiv San.Dis Tic.Ltd.Sti., and 

EKU as the all-others rate.13

Preliminary Determination 

Commerce preliminarily determines 

that the following estimated 

countervailable subsidy rates exist:

Disclosure 

Commerce intends to disclose its 

calculations and analysis performed to 

interested parties in this preliminary 

determination within five days of its 

public announcement, or if there is no 

public announcement, within five days 

of the date of this notice in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Consistent with 19 CFR 351.224(e), 

Commerce will analyze and, if 

appropriate, correct any timely 

allegations of significant ministerial 

errors by amending the preliminary 

determination. However, consistent 

with 19 CFR 351.224(d), Commerce will 

not consider incomplete allegations that 

do not address the significance standard 

under 19 CFR 351.224(g) following the 

preliminary determination. Instead, 

Commerce will address such allegations 

in the final determination together with 

issues raised in the case briefs or other 

written comments. 

Suspension of Liquidation 

With the exception of entries from 

EKU, in accordance with sections 

703(d)(1)(B) and (d)(2) of the Act, 

Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) to suspend 

liquidation of entries of subject 

merchandise as described in Appendix 

I entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption on or after 

the date of the publication of this notice 

in the Federal Register. Further, 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.205(d), 

Commerce will instruct CBP to require 

a cash deposit equal to the rates 

indicated above. Because we 

preliminarily determine that the CVD 

rate in this investigation for EKU is de 

minimis, we will not direct CBP to 

suspend liquidation of entries of the 

subject merchandise from Tu ̈rikye 

produced and exported by EKU. 

Verification 

As provided in section 782(i)(1) of the 

Act, Commerce intends to verify the 

information relied upon in making its 

final determination. 

Public Comment 

All interested parties will have the 

opportunity to submit scope case and 

rebuttal briefs on the preliminary 

decision regarding the scope of the AD 

and CVD investigations. The deadlines 

to submit scope case and rebuttal briefs 

will be provided in the preliminary 

scope decision memorandum. For all 

scope case and rebuttal briefs, parties 

must file identical documents 

simultaneously on the records of the 

ongoing AD and CVD brake drums 

investigations. No new factual 

information or business proprietary 

information may be included in either 

scope case or rebuttal briefs. 

Case briefs or other written comments 

on non-scope issues may be submitted 

to the Assistant Secretary for 

Enforcement and Compliance no later 

than seven days after the date on which 

the last verification report is issued in 

this investigation. 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.14 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.15

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 

investigation, 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 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 determination in this investigation. 

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).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, U.S. Department of 

Commerce within 30 days after the date 

of publication of this notice. 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. Parties should 

confirm by telephone the date, time, and 

location of the hearing two days before 

the scheduled date. All submissions, 

including case and rebuttal briefs, as 

well as hearing requests, should be filed 

using ACCESS. An electronically-filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on the established 

deadline. 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

Notification 

In accordance with section 703(f) of 

the Act, Commerce will notify the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) of 

its determination. If the final 

determination is affirmative, the ITC 

will determine before the later of 120 

days after the date of this preliminary 

determination or 45 days after the final 

determination whether imports of brake 

drums from Tu ̈rkiye are materially 

injuring, or threaten material injury to, 

the U.S. industry. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This determination is issued and 

published pursuant to sections 703(f) 

and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR

Federal Register list will include, where 

appropriate, for each scope application the 

following data: (1) identification of the AD and/or 

CVD orders at issue; (2) a concise public summary 

of the product’s description, including the physical 

characteristics (including chemical, dimensional 

and technical characteristics) of the product; (3) the 

country(ies) where the product is produced and the 

country from where the product is exported; (4) the 

full name of the applicant; and (5) the date that the 

scope application was filed with Commerce.’’) 

2The products are aluminum heat sinks 

manufactured using aluminum extrusions and 

designed to meet certain thermal performance 

requirements. The heat sinks are used to dissipate 

heat from pump diodes and fiber components of the 

fiber laser modules manufactured by IPG Photonics. 

The heat sinks are made from series AL 6063–5 

aluminum. The heat sinks have a flat surface 

tolerance of ≤0.0079 inches. 

3The products are wheeled 30′′ x 60′′ platform or 

flatbed utility carts with a rated load capacity of 

2,000 lbs. that are ergonomically designed for 

worker safety and constructed of lightweight 

extruded aluminum tubes, aluminum plate, 

handles, and steel and rubber or polyurethane 

wheels. Cargo is loaded on the cargo deck and the 

cart is operated by pushing or pulling the cart in 

an orientation horizontal to the ground. The cart is 

not designed and cannot operate to transport cargo 

vertically, or in an upright orientation. The 

products are packaged and imported as complete 

kits, to be assembled by the purchaser/end user. 

4The products are large diameter welded pipe 

with 18 inches outside diameter, 0.688 inches or 

greater wall thickness, and steel grade L450, for use 

of conveyance of gas, oil, and other liquids, 

generally in a pipeline or utility distribution 

system. 

gray cast iron, whether finished or 

unfinished, with an actual or nominal inside 

diameter of 14.75 inches or more but not over 

16.6 inches, weighing more than 50 pounds. 

Unfinished brake drums are those which 

have undergone some turning or machining 

but are not ready for installation. Subject 

brake drums are included within the scope 

whether imported individually or with nonsubject merchandise (for example, a hub), 

whether assembled or unassembled, or if 

joined with non-subject merchandise. When 

a subject drum is imported together with 

non-subject merchandise, such as, but not 

limited to, a drum-hub assembly, only the 

subject drum is covered by the scope. 

Subject merchandise also includes finished 

and unfinished brake drums that are further 

processed in a third country or in the United 

States, including, but not limited to, 

assembly or any other processing that would 

not otherwise remove the merchandise from 

the scope of this investigation if performed 

in the country of manufacture of the subject 

brake drums. The inclusion, attachment, 

joining, or assembly of non-subject 

merchandise with subject drums either in the 

country of manufacture of the subject drum 

or in a third country does not remove the 

subject drum from the scope. Specifically 

excluded is merchandise covered by the 

scope of the antidumping and countervailing 

duty orders on certain chassis and 

subassemblies thereof from the People’s 

Republic of China. See Certain Chassis and 

Subassemblies Thereof from the People’s

The scope also excludes composite brake 

drums that contain more than 40 percent 

steel by weight. 

The merchandise covered by this 

investigation is classifiable under
