SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On January 7, 2022, Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results of 

this administrative review.1 On 

February 14, 2022, Respondents filed a 

case brief.2 On February 22, 2022, the 

American Sugar Coalition and its 

members (petitioners) 3 filed a rebuttal 

brief.4

Scope of the AD Agreement 

The product covered by this AD 

Agreement is raw and refined sugar of 

all polarimeter readings derived from 

sugar cane or sugar beets. Merchandise 

covered by this AD Agreement is 

typically imported under the following 

headings of the HTSUS: 1701.12.1000, 

1701.12.5000, 1701.13.1000, 

1701.13.5000, 1701.14.1020, 

1701.14.1040, 1701.14.5000, 

1701.91.1000, 1701.91.3000, 

1701.99.1015, 1701.99.1017, 

1701.99.1025, 1701.99.1050, 

1701.99.5015, 1701.99.5017, 

1701.99.5025, 1701.99.5050, and 

1702.90.4000.5 The tariff classification 

is provided for convenience and 

customs purposes; however, the written 

description of the scope of this AD 

Agreement is dispositive.6

Analysis 

Commerce continues to find, based on 

record evidence, that Respondents, 

Impulsora Del Tropico and Ingenio 

Huixtla, were in compliance with the 

terms of the AD Agreement during the 

POR. We also determine that the AD 

Agreement met the statutory 

requirements under sections 734(c) and 

(d) of the Act, during the POR. However, 

during the review, Commerce identified 

issues related to recordkeeping and 

certain complex transactions referred to 

as ‘‘swap transactions.’’ We intend to 

consult with the Signatories to the AD 

Agreement under Section VII.E.2 

(Operations Consultations) to ensure 

sufficient recordkeeping with respect to 

swap transactions. Such recordkeeping 

is necessary to demonstrate compliance 

with the AD Agreement and to ensure 

that any potential administrative 

challenges to effective monitoring are 

diminished. 

The issues raised in the case and 

rebuttal briefs are addressed in the 

accompanying Issues and Decision 

Memorandum and business proprietary 

memorandum.7 The issues are 

identified in the Appendix to this 

notice. The Issues and 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).

SUMMARY: The U.S Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) is revoking, in 

part, the antidumping duty (AD) and

aluminum extrusions from the People’s 

Republic of China (China) with respect 

to certain rectangular wire.

respectively. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On May 26, 2011, Commerce 

published the AD and CVD orders on 

aluminum extrusions from China.1

On January 6, 2014, Commerce issued 

the final results of changed 

circumstances reviews (CCR), in which 

it revoked the Orders, in part, based on 

a request from 3M Company (3M) with 

regard to a similar product, and added 

the following language to the scope of 

the Orders: 

Also excluded from the scope of the order 

is certain rectangular wire produced from 

continuously cast rolled aluminum wire rod, 

which is subsequently extruded to dimension 

to form rectangular wire. The product is 

made from aluminum alloy grade 1070 or 

1370, with no recycled metal content 

allowed. The dimensions of the wire are 5 

mm (+/¥0.05 mm) in width and 1.0 mm (+/ 

¥0.02 mm) in thickness. Imports of 

rectangular wire are provided for under 

HTSUS category 7605.19.000.2

On March 23, 2022, 3M requested that 

Commerce initiate CCRs to revoke, in 

part, the Orders with respect to certain 

rectangular wire, pursuant to section 

751(b)(l) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act).3 3M requested that 

Commerce exercise its discretion to 

extend the effective date back by one 

additional day, setting an effective date 

of the revocation of the Orders to entries 

entered on or after April 30, 2021. 3M 

stated that it is a U.S. importer of certain 

rectangular wire and, as such, is an 

interested party pursuant to section 

771(9)(A) of the Act. 

On April 13, 2022, the Aluminum 

Extrusions Fair Trade Committee (the 

petitioner) submitted comments in 

support of partially revoking the Orders 

with regard to the certain rectangular 

wire defined in the CCR Request.4 The 

petitioner submitted data demonstrating 

that it represents ‘‘substantially all’’ of 

the production of the domestic like 

product.5 The petitioner also supported 

3M’s request that the partial revocation 

of the Orders with respect to the certain 

rectangular wire defined in the CCR 

Request include unliquidated entries of 

the certain rectangular wire that was 

entered on or after April 30, 2021.6

On May 12, 2022, we published the 

initiation of the requested CCRs.7 In the 

Initiation Notice, we invited interested 

parties to provide comments and/or 

factual information regarding these 

CCRs, including comments on the 

harmonization of the language of the of 

the 2014 Revocation in Part with the 

certain rectangular wire defined in the 

current CCR Request, and the setting of 

an effective date of the partial 

revocation of the Orders to entries 

entered on or after April 30, 2021. 

On May 19, 2022, 3M submitted 

comments 8 on the Initiation Notice, in 

which 3M provided revised language to 

harmonize the language of the products 

that are the subject of these CCRs with 

the language that Commerce adopted in 

the 2014 Revocation in Part to yield a 

single exclusion on rectangular wire, as 

follows: 

Also excluded from the scope of the orders 

is certain rectangular wire, imported in bulk 

rolls or precut strips and produced from 

continuously cast rolled aluminum wire rod, 

which is subsequently extruded to dimension 

to form rectangular wire with or without 

rounded edges. The product is made from 

aluminum alloy grade 1070 or 1370, with no 

recycled metal content allowed. The 

dimensions of the wire are 2.95 mm to 6.05 

mm in width, and 0.65 mm to 1.25 mm in 

thickness. Imports of rectangular wire are 

provided for under HTSUS categories 

7605.19.000, 7604.29.1090, or 7616.99.5190. 

3M continued to request that 

Commerce set an effective date of the 

partial revocation of the AD Order to 

entries entered on or after April 30, 

2021 (which had already been 

supported by the petitioner 9). On May 

20, 2022, the petitioner submitted 

comments 10 in which it agreed with the 

harmonization of the language from the 

2014 Revocation in Part with the 

language proposed by 3M in the CCR
