Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final

rebuttal briefs, within 120 days of these 

preliminary results of review in the

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 and/or countervailing 

duties prior to liquidation of the 

relevant entries during these PORs. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping/and or countervailing 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties, and/or an increase in the amount 

of antidumping duties by the amount of 

the countervailing duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

Commerce is issuing and publishing 

the preliminary results of this review in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B), 

751(a)(3), and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.213(d)(4) and 351.221(b)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 18, 2024, the U.S. 

Department of Commerce (Commerce) 

initiated countervailing duty (CVD) 

investigations of U.S. imports of 

overhead door counterbalance torsion 

springs (overhead door springs) from 

India and China.1 Currently, the 

preliminary determinations are due no 

later than January 22, 2025. 

Postponement of Preliminary 

Determinations 

Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

Commerce to issue the preliminary 

determination in a countervailing duty 

investigation within 65 days after the 

date on which Commerce initiated the 

investigation. However, section 

703(c)(1) of the Act permits Commerce 

to postpone the preliminary 

determination until not later than 130 

days after the date on which Commerce 

initiated the investigation if: (A) the 

petitioner makes a timely request for a 

postponement; or (B) Commerce 

concludes that the parties concerned are 

cooperating, the investigation is 

extraordinarily complicated, and 

additional time is necessary to make a 

preliminary determination. Under 19 

CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must 

submit a request for postponement 25 

days or more before the scheduled date 

of the preliminary determination and 

must state the reasons for the request. 

Commerce will grant the request unless 

it finds compelling reasons to deny the 

request. 

On December 20, 2024, the 

petitioners 2 submitted timely requests 

that Commerce postpone the 

preliminary determinations in the CVD 

investigations of overhead door springs 

from India and China.3 The petitioners 

requested postponements to provide 

Commerce with additional time to 

review and analyze questionnaire 

responses and accurately determine 

countervailable subsidy rates.4

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioners have stated 

the reasons for requesting a 

postponement of the preliminary 

determinations, and Commerce finds no 

compelling reason to deny the requests. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

703(c)(1)(A) of the Act, Commerce is 

postponing the deadline for the 

preliminary determinations in these 

investigations until not later than 130 

days after the date on which Commerce 

initiated these investigations, i.e., March 

28, 2025. Pursuant to section 705(a)(1) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the 

deadline for the final determinations in 

these investigations will continue to be 

75 days after the date of the preliminary 

determinations. 

This notice is issued and published 

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) is amending its 

preliminary affirmative determination 

in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) 

investigation of crystalline silicon 

photovoltaic cells, whether or not 

assembled into modules (solar cells) 

from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam 

(Vietnam) to correct for a significant 

ministerial error. The period of 

investigation (POI) is October 1, 2023, 

through March 31, 2024. 

DATES: Applicable January 2, 2025.

respectively. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 4, 2024, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register its 

preliminary affirmative determination 

in the LTFV investigation of solar cells 

from Vietnam.1 On December 9, 2024, 

the American Alliance for Solar 

Manufacturing Trade Committee, a 

coalition of domestic producers of solar 

cells and modules (collectively, the 

petitioner), timely alleged that 

Commerce made a significant 

ministerial error in calculating Jinko 

Solar (Vietnam) Industries Co., Ltd.’s 

(Jinko) estimated weighted-average 

dumping margin.2

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are solar cells from 

Vietnam. For a complete description of 

the scope of this investigation, see the 

Preliminary Determination. 

Legal Framework 

A ministerial error is defined as 

including ‘‘errors in addition, 

subtraction, or other arithmetic 

function, clerical error resulting from 

inaccurate copying, duplication, or the 

like, and any other similar type of 

unintentional error which {Commerce} 

considers ministerial.’’ 3 A ministerial 

error is considered to be ‘‘significant’’ if 

its correction, either singly or in 

combination with other errors, would 

result in: (1) a change of at least five 

absolute percentage points in, but not 

less than 25 percent of, the weightedaverage dumping margin calculated in 

the preliminary determination; or (2) a 

difference between a weighted-average 

dumping margin of zero (or de minimis) 

and a weighted-average dumping 

margin of greater than de minimis or 

vice versa.4 Pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.224(e), Commerce ‘‘will analyze any 

comments received and, if appropriate, 

correct any significant ministerial error 

by amending the preliminary 

determination.’’ 

Analysis of Significant Ministerial 

Error 

In the Preliminary Determination, 

Commerce made a significant 

ministerial error within the meaning of 

section 735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.224(f) and (g)(1) in calculating the 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin for Jinko. Accordingly, pursuant 

to 19 CFR 351.224(e), Commerce is 

amending its Preliminary Determination 

to correct for this significant ministerial 

error by revising the weighted-average 

dumping margins for Jinko and the nonindividually examined separate rate 

companies. For a detailed discussion of 

the alleged ministerial error, as well as 

Commerce’s analysis, see the Ministerial 

Error Memorandum.5

Amended Preliminary Determination 

As a result of correcting the 

significant ministerial error, Commerce 

determines the following estimated 

weighted-average dumping margins 

exist: 

Producer Exporter 

Estimated 

weighted-average 

dumping margin 

(percent) 

Cash deposit rate 

(adjusted for 

subsidy offsets)
