Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel 

Plate From the People’s Republic of 

China: Continuation of Antidumping 

Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of the respective 

determinations by the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) 

that revocation of the antidumping duty 

(AD) order on certain cut-to-length 

carbon steel plate from the People’s 

Republic of China (China) would likely 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

dumping and material injury to an 

industry in the United States, 

Commerce is publishing this notice of 

continuation of the AD order. 

DATES: Applicable July 1, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 21, 2003, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

AD order on certain cut-to-length carbon 

steel plate from China.1 On November 1 

and 2, 2020, Commerce initiated,2 and 

the ITC instituted,3 the fourth sunset 

review of the Order, pursuant to section 

751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). 

As a result of its review, Commerce 

determined, pursuant to sections 

751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the Act, that 

revocation of the Order would likely 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

dumping. Commerce therefore notified 

the ITC of the magnitude of the margins 

of dumping likely to prevail should the 

Order be revoked.4 On June 25, 2021, 

the ITC published its determination that 

revocation of the Order would likely 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

material injury to an industry in the 

United States within a reasonably 

foreseeable time, pursuant to sections 

751(c) and 752(a) of the Act.5

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by the Order is 

certain cut-to-length carbon steel plate 

from China. Included in this description 

is hot-rolled iron and non-alloy steel 

universal mill plates (i.e., flat-rolled 

products rolled on four faces or in a 

closed box pass, of a width exceeding 

150 millimeters (mm) but not exceeding 

1250 mm and of a thickness of not less 

than 4 mm, not in coils and without 

patterns in relief), of rectangular shape, 

neither clad, plated nor coated with 

metal, whether or not painted, 

varnished, or coated with plastics or 

other nonmetallic substances; and 

certain iron and nonalloy steel flatrolled products not in coils, of 

rectangular shape, hot-rolled, neither 

clad, plated, nor coated with metal, 

whether or not painted, varnished, or 

coated with plastics or other 

nonmetallic substances, 4.75 mm or 

more in thickness and of a width which 

exceeds 150 mm and measures at least 

twice the thickness. Included as subject 

merchandise in this Order are flat-rolled 

products of nonrectangular cross-section 

where such cross-section is achieved 

subsequent to the rolling process (i.e., 

products which have been ‘‘worked 

after rolling’’)—for example, products 

which have been beveled or rounded at 

the edges. This merchandise is currently 

classified in the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

under item numbers 7208.40.3030, 

7208.40.3060, 7208.51.0030, 

7208.51.0045, 7208.51.0060, 

7208.52.0000, 7208.53.0000, 

7208.90.0000, 7210.70.3000, 

7210.90.9000, 7211.13.0000, 

7211.14.0030, 7211.14.0045, 

7211.90.0000, 7212.40.1000, 

7212.40.5000, and 7212.50.0000. 

Although the HTSUS subheadings are 

provided for convenience and customs 

purposes, the written description of the 

scope of the Order is dispositive. 

Specifically excluded from the subject 

merchandise within the scope of the 

Order is grade X–70 steel plate. 

Continuation of the Order 

As a result of the respective 

determinations by Commerce and the 

ITC that revocation of the Order would 

likely lead to continuation or recurrence 

of dumping and material injury to an 

industry in the United States within a 

reasonably foreseeable time, pursuant to 

section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(a), Commerce hereby orders the 

continuation of the Order. U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection will continue to 

collect AD cash deposits at the rates in 

effect at the time of entry for all imports 

of subject merchandise. 

The effective date of the continuation 

of the Order will be the date of 

publication in the Federal Register of 

this notice of continuation. Pursuant to 

section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to 

initiate the next five-year (sunset) 

review of this Order not later than 30 

days prior to the fifth anniversary of the 

effective date of continuation.

Investigation; Opportunity To Request 

Administrative Review

Background 

Each year during the anniversary 

month of the publication of an 

antidumping or countervailing duty 

order, finding, or suspended 

investigation, an interested party, as 

defined in section 771(9) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), may 

request, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213, that the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) conduct an 

administrative review of that 

antidumping or countervailing duty 

order, finding, or suspended 

investigation. 

All deadlines for the submission of 

comments or actions by Commerce 

discussed below refer to the number of 

calendar days from the applicable 

starting date. 

Respondent Selection 

In the event Commerce limits the 

number of respondents for individual 

examination for administrative reviews 

initiated pursuant to requests made for 

the orders identified below, Commerce 

intends to select respondents based on 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) data for U.S. imports during the 

period of review. We intend to release 

the CBP data under Administrative 

Protective Order (APO) to all parties 

having an APO within five days of 

publication of the initiation notice and 

to make our decision regarding 

respondent selection within 35 days of 

publication of the initiation Federal 

Register notice. Therefore, we 

encourage all parties interested in 

commenting on respondent selection to 

submit their APO applications on the 

date of publication of the initiation 

notice, or as soon thereafter as possible. 

Commerce invites comments regarding 

the CBP data and respondent selection 

within five days of placement of the 

CBP data on the record of the review. 

In the event Commerce decides it is 

necessary to limit individual 

examination of respondents and 

conduct respondent selection under 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act: 

In general, Commerce finds that 

determinations concerning whether 

particular companies should be 

‘‘collapsed’’ (i.e., treated as a single 

entity for purposes of calculating 

antidumping duty rates) require a 

substantial amount of detailed 

information and analysis, which often 

require follow-up questions and 

analysis. Accordingly, Commerce will 

not conduct collapsing analyses at the 

respondent selection phase of a review 

and will not collapse companies at the 

respondent selection phase unless there 

has been a determination to collapse 

certain companies in a previous 

segment of this antidumping proceeding 

(i.e., investigation, administrative 

review, new shipper review or changed 

circumstances review). For any 

company subject to a review, if 

Commerce determined, or continued to 

treat, that company as collapsed with 

others, Commerce will assume that such 

companies continue to operate in the 

same manner and will collapse them for 

respondent selection purposes. 

Otherwise, Commerce will not collapse 

companies for purposes of respondent 

selection. Parties are requested to: (a) 

Identify which companies subject to 

review previously were collapsed; and 

(b) provide a citation to the proceeding 

in which they were collapsed. Further, 

if companies are requested to complete 

a Quantity and Value Questionnaire for 

purposes of respondent selection, in 

general each company must report 

volume and value data separately for 

itself. Parties should not include data 

for any other party, even if they believe 

they should be treated as a single entity 

with that other party. If a company was 

collapsed with another company or 

companies in the most recently 

completed segment of a proceeding 

where Commerce considered collapsing 

that entity, complete quantity and value 

data for that collapsed entity must be 

submitted. 

Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for 

Administrative Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a 

party that requests a review may 

withdraw that request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. The 

regulation provides that Commerce may 

extend this time if it is reasonable to do 

so. Determinations by Commerce to 

extend the 90-day deadline will be 

made on a case-by-case basis. 

Deadline for Particular Market 

Situation Allegation 

Section 504 of the Trade Preferences 

Extension Act of 2015 amended the Act 

by adding the concept of particular 

market situation (PMS) for purposes of 

constructed value under section 773(e) 

of the Act.1 Section 773(e) of the Act 

states that ‘‘if a particular market 

situation exists such that the cost of 

materials and fabrication or other 

processing of any kind does not 

accurately reflect the cost of production 

in the ordinary course of trade, the 

administering authority may use 

another calculation methodology under 

this subtitle or any other calculation 

methodology.’’ When an interested 

party submits a PMS allegation pursuant 

to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce 

will respond to such a submission 

consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v). 

If Commerce finds that a PMS exists 

under section 773(e) of the Act, then it 

will modify its dumping calculations 

appropriately. 

Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor 

19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a deadline 

for the submission of PMS allegations 

and supporting factual information. 

However, in order to administer section 

773(e) of the Act, Commerce must 

receive PMS allegations and supporting 

factual information with enough time to 

consider the submission. Thus, should 

an interested party wish to submit a 

PMS allegation and supporting new 

factual information pursuant to section
