Xanthan Gum From the People’s 

Republic of China: Preliminary Results 

of the Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, Partial 

Rescission of the Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, and 

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments; 2019–2020 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) preliminarily determines 

that except for one respondent for 

which Commerce calculated a zero 

percent dumping margin, the eight 

respondents under review either made 

sales of subject merchandise at prices 

below normal value (NV) during the 

period of review (POR) July 1, 2019, 

through June 30, 2020, did not ship 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR, or were not 

entitled to a separate rate. Also, 

Commerce is rescinding this review 

with respect to one company. We invite 

interested parties to comment on these 

preliminary results. 

DATES: Applicable August 5, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

This administrative review is being 

conducted in accordance with section 

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

amended (the Act). On July 1, 2020, 

Commerce published in the Federal 

Register a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

antidumping duty (AD) order on 

xanthan gum from the People’s Republic 

of China (China).1 Commerce published 

the notice of initiation of this 

administrative review on September 3, 

2020.2 On March 5, 2021, Commerce 

extended the deadline for the 

preliminary results of this review by a 

total of 119 days, to July 30, 2021.3

On October 26, 2020, Commerce 

selected two exporters to individually 

examine as mandatory respondents,4

Meihua,5 and Fufeng.6 During the 

course of this review, the mandatory 

respondents responded to Commerce’s 

questionnaire and supplemental 

questionnaires, the petitioner (CP Kelco 

U.S., Inc.) commented on certain 

responses, and other companies for 

which Commerce initiated the review 

filed either no-shipment claims or 

applications or certifications for 

separate rates status with Commerce. 

For details regarding the events that 

occurred subsequent to the initiation of 

the review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by the order 

includes dry xanthan gum, whether or 

not coated or blended with other 

products. Xanthan gum is included in 

this order regardless of physical form, 

including, but not limited to, solutions, 

slurries, dry powders of any particle 

size, or unground fiber. 

Merchandise covered by the scope of 

the order is classified in the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States at subheading 3913.90.20. 

This tariff classification is provided for 

convenience and customs purposes; 

however, the written description of the 

scope is dispositive. 

A full description of the scope of the 

order is contained in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments 

On September 28, 2020, and October 

2, 2020, Shanghai Smart Chemicals Co., 

Ltd. (Shanghai Smart) and Deosen 

Biochemical Ltd. (Deosen Biochemical), 

respectively, timely filed certifications 

that they did not export or sell subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POR and that there were no entries 

of their subject merchandise into the 

United States during the POR. Based on 

an analysis of information from U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

and Shanghai Smart’s no shipment 

certification, Commerce preliminarily 

determines that Shanghai Smart did not 

have shipments of subject merchandise 

to the United States during the POR.7

However, Commerce preliminarily 

determines that Deosen Biochemical 

had reviewable transactions during the 

POR.8 For additional information 

regarding this determination, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

Consistent with Commerce’s practice 

in non-market economy (NME) cases, 

we are not rescinding this 

administrative review with respect to 

Shanghai Smart, but intend to complete 

the review and issue appropriate 

instructions to CBP based on the final 

results of the review.9

Partial Rescission of Administrative 

Review 

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

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the party or parties that 

requested a review withdraw their 

request(s) within 90 days of the 

publication date of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review in the 

Federal Register. In December 2020, 

parties timely withdrew their requests 

for an AD administrative review of CP 

Kelco (Shandong) Biological Company 

Limited (CP Kelco Shandong).10

Because all requests for reviews of CP 

Kelco Shandong were timely 

withdrawn, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding 

this review of the AD order on xanthan 

gum from China with respect to CP 

Kelco Shandong. 

Use of Adverse Facts Available 

Pursuant to section 776(a) and (b) of 

the Act, Commerce has preliminarily 

relied upon facts otherwise available, 

with adverse inferences, to determine 

the dumping margin assigned to 

Meihua. For further information, see 

’’Application of Facts Available With 

Adverse Inferences’’ in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum; see also the 

Meihua Preliminary AFA 

Memorandum.11

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) 

of the Act. We calculated export prices 

and constructed export prices in 

accordance with section 772 of the Act. 

Because China is an NME country 

within the meaning of section 771(18) of 

the Act, we calculated NV in accordance 

with section 773(c) of the Act. 

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying the 

preliminary results of review, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum, 

which is hereby adopted by 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 http://enforcement.trade.gov/ 

frn/. A list of sections in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is in the 

appendix to this notice. 

Separate Rates 

In all proceedings involving NME 

countries, Commerce maintains a 

rebuttable presumption that all 

companies within an NME are subject to 

government control and, thus, should be 

assessed a single weighted-average 

dumping margin unless the company 

can affirmatively demonstrate an 

absence of government control, both in 

law (de jure) and in fact (de facto), with 

respect to its exports so that it is entitled 

to separate rate status.12 Commerce 

preliminarily determines that the 

information placed on the record by 

Jianlong Biotechnology Co. Ltd 

(formerly, Inner Mongolia Jianlong 

Biochemical Co., Ltd.) (Jianlong), 

Deosen Biochemical and Deosen 

Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. (collectively, 

Deosen), Meihua, and Fufeng 

demonstrates that these companies are 

entitled to separate rate status. 

However, Commerce preliminarily 

determines that A.H.A. International 

Co., Ltd., Hebei Xinhe Biochemical Co., 

Ltd., Greenhealth International Co., Ltd. 

(Hong Kong), and Nanotech Solutions 

SDN BHD did not demonstrate their 

eligibility for separate rates status 

because they did not file a separate rate 

application or separate rate certification 

with Commerce. Therefore, we are 

preliminarily treating A.H.A. 

International Co., Ltd., Hebei Xinhe 

Biochemical Co., Ltd., Greenhealth 

International Co., Ltd. (Hong Kong), and 

Nanotech Solutions SDN BHD as part of 

the China-wide entity. Because no party 

requested a review of the China-wide 

entity, the entity is not under review 

and the entity’s rate (i.e., 154.07 

percent) is not subject to change in this 

review. For additional information, see 

the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

Dumping Margins for Separate Rate 

Companies 

The statute and Commerce’s 

regulations do not identify the dumping 

margin to apply to respondents not 

selected for individual examination 

when Commerce limits its examination 

in an administrative review pursuant to 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, 

Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of 

the Act, which provides instructions for 

calculating the all-others rate in an 

investigation, for guidance when 

determining the dumping margin for 

respondents that are not individually 

examined in an administrative review. 

Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act states 

that the all-others rate should be 

calculated by averaging the weightedaverage dumping margins for 

individually-examined respondents, 

excluding dumping margins that are 

zero, de minimis, or based entirely on 

facts available. Where the dumping 

margins for individually examined 

respondents are all zero, de minimis, or

based entirely on facts available, section 

735(c)(5)(B) of the Act provides that 

Commerce may use ‘‘any reasonable 

method to establish the estimated allothers rate for exporters and producers 

not individually investigated, including 

averaging the estimated weighted 

average dumping margins determined 

for the exporters and producers 

individually investigated.’’ 

We preliminarily calculated a zero 

percent dumping margin for one of the 

mandatory respondents in this review, 

Fufeng, and we preliminarily based the 

other mandatory respondent’s, 

Meihua’s, dumping margin on total 

AFA. Therefore, we assigned the 

separate rate respondents a dumping 

margin equal to the simple average of 

the dumping margins for Fufeng and 

Meihua, consistent with the guidance in 

section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. For 

additional information, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce intends to disclose to 

parties to the proceeding the 

calculations performed for these 

preliminary results of review within five 

days of the date of publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Interested parties may submit case briefs 

to Commerce no later than 30 days after 

the date of publication of these 

preliminary results of review in the 

Federal Register.13 Rebuttal briefs may 

be filed with Commerce no later than 

seven days after case briefs are due and 

may respond only to arguments raised 

in the case briefs.14 A table of contents, 

list of authorities used, and an executive 

summary of issues should accompany 

any briefs submitted to Commerce. The 

summary should be limited to five pages 

total, including footnotes.15

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 in the 

Federal Register. Requests for a hearing 

should contain: (1) The requesting 

party’s name, address, and telephone 

number; (2) the number of individuals 

associated with the requesting party that 

will attend the hearing and whether any 

of those individuals is a foreign 

national; and (3) a list of the issues the 

party intends to discuss at the hearing. 

Oral arguments at the hearing will be 

limited to issues raised in the briefs. If 

a request for a hearing is made, 

Commerce will announce the date and 

time of the hearing. Parties should 

confirm by telephone the date and time 

of the hearing two days before the 

scheduled hearing date. 

All submissions, with limited 

exceptions, must be filed electronically 

using ACCESS.16 An electronically filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety by Commerce’s electronic 

records system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. 

Eastern Time (ET) on the due date.16

Note that Commerce has temporarily 

modified certain of its requirements for 

serving documents containing business 

proprietary information until further 

notice.17 Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

which will include the results of its 

analysis of issues raised in any briefs, 

within 120 days of publication of these 

preliminary results of review in the 

Federal Register, pursuant to section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon issuance of the final results of 

review, Commerce will determine, and 

CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 

all appropriate entries covered by this 

review.18 Commerce intends to issue 

appropriate assessment instructions to 

CBP 35 days after the 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). 

We will calculate importer/customerspecific assessment rates equal to the 

ratio of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for examined sales to a 

particular importer/customer to the total 

entered value of those sales, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).19

Where the respondent reported reliable 

entered values, Commerce intends to 

calculate importer/customer-specific ad 

valorem assessment rates by dividing 

the total amount of dumping calculated 

for all reviewed U.S. sales to the 

importer/customer by the total entered 

value of the merchandise sold to the 

importer/customer.20 Where the 

respondent did not report entered 

values, Commerce will calculate 

importer/customer-specific assessment 

rates by dividing the total amount of 

dumping calculated for all reviewed 

U.S. sales to the importer/customer by 

the total quantity of those sales. 

Commerce will calculate an estimated

ad valorem importer/customer-specific 

assessment rate to determine whether 

the per-unit assessment rate is de 

minimis; however, Commerce will use 

the per-unit assessment rate where 

entered values were not reported.21

Where an importer/customer-specific ad 

valorem assessment rate is not zero or 

de minimis, Commerce will instruct 

CBP to collect the appropriate duties at 

the time of liquidation. Where either the 

respondent’s ad valorem weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de 

minimis, or an importer/customerspecific ad valorem assessment rate is 

zero or de minimis,22 Commerce will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties. 

For respondents not individually 

examined in this administrative review 

that qualified for a separate rate, the 

assessment rate will be equal to the 

weighted-average dumping margin 

assigned to the respondent in the final 

results of this review.23

Pursuant to Commerce’s refinement to 

its practice, for sales that were not 

reported in the U.S. sales database 

submitted by a respondent individually 

examined during this review, Commerce 

will instruct CBP to liquidate the entry 

of such merchandise at the dumping 

margin assigned to the China-wide 

entity.24 Additionally, where Commerce 

determines that an exporter under 

review had no shipments of subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POR, any suspended entries of 

subject merchandise that entered under 

that exporter’s CBP case number during 

the POR will be liquidated at the 

dumping margin assigned to the Chinawide entity. 

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 antidumping 

duties, where applicable. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of xanthan gum from China 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the notice of the final 

results of this administrative review in 

the Federal Register, as provided for by 

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

companies granted a separate rate in the 

final results of this review, the cash 

deposit rate will be equal to the 

weighted-average dumping margin 

established in the final results of this 

review for the company (except, if the 

rate is zero or de minimis, then a cash 

deposit rate of zero will be required); (2) 

for previously investigated or reviewed 

China and non-China exporters not 

listed above that received a separate rate 

in a prior segment of this proceeding, 

the cash deposit rate will continue to be 

the existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for 

all China exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not been found 

to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash 

deposit rate will be the rate for the 

China-wide entity, which is 154.07 

percent; and (4) for all non-China 

exporters of subject merchandise that 

have not received their own rate, the 

cash deposit rate will be the rate 

applicable to China exporter(s) that 

supplied that non-China exporter. These 

deposit requirements, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

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 and/ 

or countervailing duties prior to 

liquidation of the relevant entries 

during this review period. Failure to 

comply with this requirement could 

result in the Secretary’s presumption 

that reimbursement of antidumping 

and/or countervailing duties occurred 

and the subsequent assessment of 

double antidumping duties.
