the transaction.16 The final results of 

this administrative review shall be the 

basis for the assessment of antidumping 

duties on entries of merchandise under 

review and for future cash deposits of 

estimated antidumping duties, where 

applicable. 

For Siderca, for which the 

administrative review is rescinded, 

antidumping duties shall be assessed at 

a rate equal to the cash deposit of 

estimated antidumping duties required 

at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 

warehouse, for consumption, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(c)(1)(i). 

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 41 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a). 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). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication in the Federal Register of 

the final results of this administrative 

review for all shipments of the subject 

merchandise entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after the date of publication, as provided 

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

cash deposit rate for companies subject 

to this review will be equal to the 

company-specific weighted-average 

dumping margin established in the final 

results of this administrative review; (2) 

for merchandise exported by a company 

not covered in this review but covered 

in a prior segment of the proceeding, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published in the 

completed segment for the most recent 

period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm 

covered in this review, a prior review, 

or the less-than-fair-value investigation 

but the producer is, then the cash 

deposit rate will be the rate established 

in the most recently completed segment 

of the proceeding for the producer of the 

merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other producers or exporters 

will continue to be 44.93 percent, the 

all-others rate established in the lessthan-fair-value investigation.17 These 

cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice 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 POR. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

These preliminary results are issued 

and published in accordance with 

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

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

351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 22, 2021, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on thermal 

paper from Korea.1 On November 2, 

2023, Commerce published in the 

Federal Register a notice of opportunity 

to request an administrative review of 

the Order for the POR.2 On December 

29, 2023, based on timely requests for 

review, we initiated an administrative 

review of the Order covering one 

company, Hansol Paper Company 

(Hansol), in accordance 751(a) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act).3

On July 3, 2024, we extended the 

preliminary results of this review to no 

later than November 22, 2024.4 On July 

22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain 

deadlines in this administrative 

proceeding by seven days.5 The 

deadline for the preliminary results is 

now November 29, 2024.

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce intends to disclose its 

calculations and analysis performed to 

interested parties for these preliminary 

results within five days of any public 

announcement or, if there is no public 

announcement, within five days of the 

date of publication of this notice in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), 

interested parties may submit case briefs 

to Commerce no later than 30 days after 

the date of publication of this notice. 

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.7 Interested parties who 

submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in 

this administrative review must submit: 

(1) a table of contents listing each issue; 

and (2) a table of authorities.8

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.9 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. Note that 

Commerce has amended certain of its 

requirements pertaining to the service of 

documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).10

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance, filed electronically via 

ACCESS 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

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.11

All submissions, including case and 

rebuttal briefs, as well as hearing 

requests, should be filed via ACCESS.12

An electronically filed document must 

be received successfully in its entirety 

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

on the established deadline. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of this 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review. Pursuant 

to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because Hansol 

reported the entered value for all of its 

U.S. sales, we calculated importerspecific ad valorem duty assessment 

rates based on the ratio of the total 

amount of dumping calculated for the 

examined sales to the total entered 

value of the sales for which entered 

value was reported. Where either 

Hansol’s weighted-average dumping 

margin is zero or de minimis within the 

meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an 

importer-specific rate is zero or de 

minimis, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate the appropriate entries 

without regard to antidumping duties. 

Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’ 

practice will apply to entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR produced 

by Hansol for which it did not know 

that the merchandise it sold to an 

intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading 

company, or exporter) was destined for 

the United States. In such instances, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate those 

entries at the all-others rate if there is no 

rate for the intermediate company(ies) 

involved in the transaction.13

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 duties, where 

applicable. 

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., 

within 90 days of publication).

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following deposit requirements 

will be effective for all shipments of the 

subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the publication 

date of the final results of this 

administrative review, as provided by 

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

cash deposit rate for the company listed 

above will be that established in the 

final results of this review, except if the 

rate is less than 0.50 percent and, 

therefore, de minimis within the 

meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in 

which case the cash deposit rate will be 

zero; (2) for previously investigated or 

reviewed companies not covered in this 

review, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the company-specific 

cash deposit rate published for the most 

recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the company 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, or the lessthan-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but 

the manufacturer is, then the cash 

deposit rate will be the rate established 

for the most recent segment for the 

manufacturer of the merchandise; and 

(4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

manufacturers or exporters will 

continue to be 6.19 percent, the allothers rate established in the LTFV 

investigation.14 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of its analysis of 

the issues raised in any written briefs, 

no later than 120 days after the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, pursuant to section 

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

351.213(h)(1). 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 

the reimbursement of antidumping 

duties prior to liquidation of the 

relevant entries during this POR. Failure 

to comply with this requirement could 

result in Commerce’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of double antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.213 and 351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

This is a request for renewal of an 

approved information collection. The 

National Marine Fisheries Service, 

Alaska Regional Office (NMFS AKR), is 

the sponsor of this information 

collection, which contains the 

requirements for the annual participant 

letter for the Aleutian Islands pollock 

fishery. 

NMFS AKR manages the groundfish 

fisheries in the exclusive economic zone 

of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands 

management area under the Fishery 

Management Plan for Groundfish of the 

Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands 

Management Area (FMP). The 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act (16 

U.S.C. 1801 et seq.) authorizes the North 

Pacific Fishery Management Council to 

prepare and amend fishery management 

plans for any fishery in waters under its 

jurisdiction. 

Amendment 82 to the FMP 

established a framework for the 

management of the Aleutian Islands 

subarea (AI) directed pollock fishery. 

Amendment 82 implemented a 

provision of the Consolidated 

Appropriations Act of 2004 (Pub. L. 

108–199, sec. 803) that requires the AI 

directed pollock fishery be allocated to 

The Aleut Corporation for the purpose 

of economic development in Adak, 

Alaska. The Aleut Corporation is 

identified in Public Law 108–199 as a 

business incorporated pursuant to the 

Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (43 

U.S.C. 1601 et seq.). The Aleut 

Corporation’s AI pollock fishery is set 

up so that harvesting pollock in the AI 

directed pollock fishery and processing 

pollock taken in the AI directed pollock 

fishery are authorized only for those 

harvesters and processors that are 

selected by The Aleut Corporation and 

approved by the NMFS Regional 

Administrator. 

The purpose of this collection is for 

NMFS to obtain the list of vessels and 

processors selected by The Aleut 

Corporation to harvest and process its 

annual AI pollock allocation. NMFS 

uses this information to manage the AI 

pollock fishery. Without this 

information, NMFS would not know the 

participants selected by The Aleut 

Corporation and could not determine
