Glycine From the People’s Republic of 

China: Preliminary Results of Changed 

Circumstances Review 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On November 17, 2016, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) initiated a changed 

circumstances review (CCR) of the 

antidumping duty order on glycine from 

the People’s Republic of China (PRC). 

The Department preliminarily 

determines that Salvi Chemical 

Industries Ltd. (Salvi) is eligible to 

participate in a certification process, 

because Salvi has demonstrated that 

glycine produced by Salvi is no longer 

processed from Chinese-origin glycine. 

Interested parties are invited to 

comment on these preliminary results. 

DATES: Effective August 11, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 10, 2012, the 

Department published its final anticircumvention inquiry determination, 

where the record indicated that Salvi 

was processing Chinese glycine and 

labeling it to be of Indian origin.1 The 

Department determined that glycine 

processed in India of Chinese origin 

does not change country of origin, and, 

therefore, Salvi had circumvented the 

Order.2 As part of our determination, we 

stated that Salvi could not take part in 

a certification process, whereby Salvi’s 

importers could certify that they had not 

imported Chinese-origin glycine and 

would not be subject to the antidumping 

duty rate for Chinese glycine.3

Additionally, we stated that Salvi could 

also request a CCR if it could show that 

its exports of glycine to the United 

States were not processed from Chineseorigin glycine.4 On July 18, 2016, the 

Department received a request from 

Salvi to initiate a CCR in order for the 

Department to determine that the 

glycine produced by Salvi is no longer 

processed from Chinese-origin glycine.5

Additionally, Salvi requested that the 

Department determine that importers of 

glycine from Salvi are eligible to 

participate in a certification process.6

On November 16, 2017, the Department 

initiated this CCR, pursuant to section 

751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended, (the Act) and 19 CFR 

351.216(d), upon finding that there is 

sufficient information to warrant a 

review of the Order.7

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by this 

antidumping duty order is glycine, 

which is a free-flowing crystalline 

material, like salt or sugar. Glycine is 

produced at varying levels of purity and 

is used as a sweetener/taste enhancer, a 

buffering agent, reabsorbable amino 

acid, chemical intermediate, and a metal 

complexing agent. This proceeding 

includes glycine of all purity levels. 

Glycine is currently classified under 

subheading 2922.49.4020 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS).8 Although the 

HTSUS subheading is provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

under the order is dispositive.9

Methodology 

We are conducting this CCR in 

accordance with section 751(b)(1) of the 

Act. For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.10 A list of 

topics in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is included as an 

appendix to this notice. 

The Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is made available to the public 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, and is available to all 

parties in the Department’s Central 

Records Unit, room B8024 of the main 

Department of Commerce building. In 

addition, a complete version of the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum can 

be accessed directly at http://

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum and 

the electronic version of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content. 

Preliminary Results of the Changed 

Circumstances Review 

We preliminarily determine that, 

since the Circumvention Notice and 

Final Scope Ruling were issued, Salvi 

has demonstrated that glycine produced 

by Salvi is no longer processed from 

Chinese-origin glycine. 

If the Department upholds these 

preliminary results in the final results, 

we will notify U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection and allow Salvi’s importers 

of subject merchandise to certify that 

the glycine being produced and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 6, 2017, the Department 

published a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

AD order on uncoated paper from 

Indonesia.1 On March 31, 2017, the 

Department received timely requests to 

conduct an administrative review of two 

companies: (1) PT. Indah Kiat Pulp and 

Paper Tbk, PT. Pabrik Kertas Tjiwi 

Kirnja Tbk, and Pindo Deli Pulp and 

Paper Mills (PD) (collectively, APP); and 

(2) PT Anugerah Kertas Utama, PT Riau 

Andalan Kertas, and APRIL Fine Paper 

Macao Offshore Limited (collectively 

APRIL).2 Based upon these requests, on 

May 9, 2017, in accordance with section 

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

amended (the Act), the Department 

published a notice of initiation of an 

administrative review covering the 

period August 26, 2015, through 

February 28, 2017, with respect to two 

companies.3 On June 12, 2017, APP 

withdrew its request for an 

administrative review. 

Partial Rescission 

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

Secretary will rescind an administrative 

review, in whole or in part, if a party 

who requested the review withdraws 

the request within 90 days of the date 

of publication of notice of initiation of 

the requested review. APP timely 

withdrew its request for an 

administrative review of itself and no 

other party requested a review of this 

company. Accordingly, we are 

rescinding this review with respect to 

APP, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1). 

Assessment 

The Department will instruct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries. For APP, the 

company for which this review is 

rescinded, antidumping duties shall be 

assessed at rates equal to the cash 

deposit of estimated antidumping duties 

required at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department 

intends to issue appropriate assessment 

instructions to CBP 15 days after 

publication of this notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a reminder to 

importers of their responsibility under 

19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of
