Filing Information 

As a courtesy, we are making 

information related to sunset 

proceedings, including copies of the 

pertinent statute and Commerce’s 

regulations, Commerce’s schedule for 

Sunset Reviews, a listing of past 

revocations and continuations, and 

current service lists, available to the 

public on Commerce’s website at the 

following address: https://

enforcement.trade.gov/sunset/. All 

submissions in these Sunset Reviews 

must be filed in accordance with 

Commerce’s regulations regarding 

format, translation, and service of 

documents. These rules, including 

electronic filing requirements via 

Enforcement and Compliance’s 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Centralized Electronic Service System 

(ACCESS), can be found at 19 CFR 

351.303. 

In accordance with section 782(b) of 

the Act, any party submitting factual 

information in an AD or CVD 

proceeding must certify to the accuracy 

and completeness of that information. 

Parties must use the certification 

formats provided in 19 CFR 351.303(g). 

Commerce intends to reject factual 

submissions if the submitting party does 

not comply with applicable revised 

certification requirements. 

Letters of Appearance and 

Administrative Protective Orders 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.103(d), 

Commerce will maintain and make 

available a public service list for these 

proceedings. Parties wishing to 

participate in any of these five-year 

reviews must file letters of appearance 

as discussed at 19 CFR 351.103(d). To 

facilitate the timely preparation of the 

public service list, it is requested that 

those seeking recognition as interested 

parties to a proceeding submit an entry 

of appearance within 10 days of the 

publication of the Notice of Initiation. 

Because deadlines in Sunset Reviews 

can be very short, we urge interested 

parties who want access to proprietary 

information under administrative 

protective order (APO) to file an APO 

application immediately following 

publication in the Federal Register of 

this notice of initiation. Commerce’s 

regulations on submission of proprietary 

information and eligibility to receive 

access to business proprietary 

information under APO can be found at 

19 CFR 351.304–306. Note that 

Commerce has temporarily modified 

certain of its requirements for serving 

documents containing business 

proprietary information, until further 

notice.1

Information Required From Interested 

Parties 

Domestic interested parties, as 

defined in section 771(9)(C), (D), (E), (F), 

and (G) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.102(b), wishing to participate in a 

Sunset Review must respond not later 

than 15 days after the date of 

publication in the Federal Register of 

this notice of initiation by filing a notice 

of intent to participate. The required 

contents of the notice of intent to 

participate are set forth at 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(ii). In accordance with 

Commerce’s regulations, if we do not 

receive a notice of intent to participate 

from at least one domestic interested 

party by the 15-day deadline, Commerce 

will automatically revoke the order 

without further review.2

If we receive an order-specific notice 

of intent to participate from a domestic 

interested party, Commerce’s 

regulations provide that all parties 

wishing to participate in a Sunset 

Review must file complete substantive 

responses not later than 30 days after 

the date of publication in the Federal 

Register of this notice of initiation. The 

required contents of a substantive 

response, on an order-specific basis, are 

set forth at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3). Note 

that certain information requirements 

differ for respondent and domestic 

parties. Also, note that Commerce’s 

information requirements are distinct 

from the ITC ’s information 

requirements. Consult Commerce’s 

regulations for information regarding 

Commerce’s conduct of Sunset Reviews. 

Consult Commerce’s regulations at 19 

CFR part 351 for definitions of terms 

and for other general information 

concerning antidumping and 

countervailing duty proceedings at 

Commerce. 

This notice of initiation is being 

published in accordance with section 

751(c) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c).

DC 20230, telephone: (202) 482–4735. 

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.

2Or the next business day, if the deadline falls 

on a weekend, federal holiday or any other day 

when Commerce is closed. 

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 

773(e) of the Act, it must do so no later 

than 20 days after submission of initial 

Section D responses. 

Opportunity To Request a Review: Not 

later than the last day of June 2021,2

interested parties may request 

administrative review of the following 

orders, findings, or suspended 

investigations, with anniversary dates in 

June for the following periods:

Suspension Agreements 

None. 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(b), an interested party as 

defined by section 771(9) of the Act may 

request in writing that the Secretary 

conduct an administrative review. For 

both antidumping and countervailing 

duty reviews, the interested party must 

specify the individual producers or 

exporters covered by an antidumping 

finding or an antidumping or 

countervailing duty order or suspension 

agreement for which it is requesting a 

review. In addition, a domestic 

interested party or an interested party 

described in section 771(9)(B) of the Act 

must state why it desires the Secretary 

to review those particular producers or 

exporters. If the interested party intends 

for the Secretary to review sales of 

merchandise by an exporter (or a 

producer if that producer also exports 

merchandise from other suppliers) 

which was produced in more than one 

country of origin and each country of 

origin is subject to a separate order, then 

the interested party must state 

specifically, on an order-by-order basis, 

which exporter(s) the request is 

intended to cover. 

Note that, for any party Commerce 

was unable to locate in prior segments, 

Commerce will not accept a request for 

an administrative review of that party 

absent new information as to the party’s 

location. Moreover, if the interested 

party who files a request for review is 

unable to locate the producer or 

exporter for which it requested the 

review, the interested party must 

provide an explanation of the attempts 

it made to locate the producer or 

exporter at the same time it files its 

request for review, in order for the 

Secretary to determine if the interested 

party’s attempts were reasonable, 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.303(f)(3)(ii). 

As explained in Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), and NonMarket Economy Antidumping 

Proceedings: Assessment of 

Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 

(October 24, 2011), Commerce clarified 

its practice with respect to the 

collection of final antidumping duties 

on imports of merchandise where 

intermediate firms are involved. The 

public should be aware of this 

clarification in determining whether to 

request an administrative review of 

merchandise subject to antidumping 

findings and orders.3

Commerce no longer considers the 

non-market economy (NME) entity as an 

exporter conditionally subject to an 

antidumping duty administrative 

reviews.4 Accordingly, the NME entity 

will not be under review unless 

Commerce specifically receives a 

request for, or self-initiates, a review of 

the NME entity.5 In administrative 

reviews of antidumping duty orders on 

merchandise from NME countries where 

a review of the NME entity has not been 

initiated, but where an individual 

exporter for which a review was 

initiated does not qualify for a separate 

rate, Commerce will issue a final 

decision indicating that the company in 

question is part of the NME entity. 

However, in that situation, because no 

review of the NME entity was 

conducted, the NME entity’s entries 

were not subject to the review and the 

rate for the NME entity is not subject to 

change as a result of that review 

(although the rate for the individual 

exporter may change as a function of the 

finding that the exporter is part of the 

NME entity). Following initiation of an 

antidumping administrative review 

when there is no review requested of the 

NME entity, Commerce will instruct 

CBP to liquidate entries for all exporters 

not named in the initiation notice, 

including those that were suspended at 

the NME entity rate. 

All requests must be filed 

electronically in Enforcement and 

Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS) on 

Enforcement and Compliance’s ACCESS 

website at https://access.trade.gov.6

Further, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.303(f)(l)(i), a copy of each request 

must be served on the petitioner and 

each exporter or producer specified in 

the request. Note that Commerce has 

temporarily modified certain of its 

requirements for serving documents 

containing business proprietary 

information, until further notice.7

Commerce will publish in the Federal 

Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation of

8One of the key measurements of any grade of 

paper is brightness. Generally speaking, the brighter 

the paper the better the contrast between the paper 

and the ink. Brightness is measured using a GE 

Reflectance Scale, which measures the reflection of 

light off a grade of paper. One is the lowest 

reflection, or what would be given to a totally black 

grade, and 100 is the brightest measured grade.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 3, 2016, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

CVD order on certain uncoated paper 

from Indonesia.1 On February 1, 2021, 

Commerce published the notice of 

initiation of the first sunset review of 

the Order, pursuant to section 751(c) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act).2 On February 12 and 16, 2021, 

Commerce received notices of intent to 

participate from domestic interested 

parties 3 within the deadline specified 

in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).4 The 

domestic interested parties claimed 

interested party status pursuant to 

sections 771(9)(C) and (D) of the Act, 

respectively, as either manufacturers in 

the United States of the domestic like 

product or as a certified union with 

workers engaged in the production of 

the domestic like product in the United 

States.5

On March 1, 2021, Commerce

specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).6

Commerce received no substantive 

response from any other interested 

parties with respect to the Order 

covered by this sunset review. On 

March 23, 2021, Commerce notified the 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

that it did not receive an adequate 

substantive response from respondent 

interested parties.7 As a result, pursuant 

to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19

conducted an expedited (120-day) 

sunset review of the Order.
