Assessment of Antidumping Duties 

We are rescinding this review for 

ASSL; in accordance with Department 

practice, we will instruct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties at the 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). 

Upon issuance of the final results of 

this review, in accordance with the 

Department’s practice, for entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR for 

which Ambica or Bhansali did not know 

that the merchandise was destined for 

the United States, we will instruct CBP 

to liquidate such entries at the all-others 

rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction. We intend to issue 

instructions to CBP 15 days after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this review. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this administrative review, as provided 

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

The cash deposit rate for Ambica and 

Bhansali will remain unchanged from 

the rate assigned to each company in the 

completed segment for the most recent 

period for each company; (2) for other 

producers and exporters covered in a 

prior segment of the proceeding, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

completed segment for the most recent 

period of this proceeding in which that 

producer or exporter participated; (3) if 

the exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review, a prior review, or the original 

investigation, but the producer is, then 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the completed segment 

for the most recent period of this 

proceeding for the producer of subject 

merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other producers or exporters 

will continue to be 12.45 percent, the 

all-others rate established in the 

investigation.12 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a preliminary 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of 

antidumping 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 duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of double antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results of administrative 

review in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Preliminary Results and Rescission, in 

Part, of the Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review; 2016–2017 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) is conducting an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on uncovered 

innerspring units (innerspring units) 

from the People’s Republic of China 

(PRC). The period of review (POR) is 

February 1, 2016, through January 31, 

2017. The Department preliminarily 

determines that PT Sunhere Buana 

International (PT Sunhere) failed to 

cooperate to the best of its ability and 

is, therefore, basing its margin on facts 

otherwise available with an adverse 

inference (AFA). The Department is also 

rescinding the administrative review 

with respect to Jietai Machinery Ltd. 

(HK) (Jietai Machinery). Interested 

parties are invited to comment on these 

preliminary results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 19, 2009, the Department 

published an antidumping duty order 

on innerspring units from the PRC (the 

Order).1 On February 28, 2017, Leggett 

& Platt, Inc. (the petitioner) submitted a 

request for the Department to conduct 

an administrative review of the Order 

that examines Jietai Machinery and PT 

Sunhere’s exports of subject 

merchandise made during the POR.2 On 

April 10, 2016, the Department 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of initiation of this administrative 

review of the Order concerning Jietai 

Machinery and PT Sunhere’s POR

connection with the preliminary results of review 

within five days of the date of publication of the 

notice of preliminary results in the Federal 

Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

exports of subject merchandise.3 4 On 

May 1, 2017 the Department issued its 

questionnaire to Jietai Machinery and 

PT Sunhere.5 The Department’s 

questionnaire to Jietai Machinery was 

returned as undeliverable.6 The 

Department confirmed delivery of its 

questionnaire to PT Sunhere.7 On 

September 6, 2017, based on guidance 

from U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP), we added harmonized 

tariff schedule (HTS) number 

7326.20.0090 to the Scope of the Order.8

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the order 

is uncovered innerspring units 

composed of a series of individual metal 

springs joined together in sizes 

corresponding to the sizes of adult 

mattresses (e.g., twin, twin long, full, 

full long, queen, California king and 

king) and units used in smaller 

constructions, such as crib and youth 

mattresses. The product is currently 

classified under subheading 

9404.29.9010 and has also been 

classified under subheadings 

9404.10.0000, 9404.29.9005, 

9404.29.9011, 7326.20.0070, 

7326.20.0090, 7320.20.5010, 

7320.90.5010, or 7326.20.0071 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS).9 The HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes 

only; the written description of the 

scope of the order is dispositive.10

Methodology 

The Department is conducting this 

review in accordance with section 

751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). With respect to PT 

Sunhere, we relied on facts available 

and, because PT Sunhere did not act to 

the best of its ability to respond to the 

Department’s requests for information, 

we drew an adverse inference in 

selecting from among the facts 

otherwise available.11

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, please see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 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 http://access.trade.gov and in the 

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 

on the internet at http://

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum and 

the electronic versions of the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum are 

identical in content. 

Partial Rescission of Administrative 

Review 

The Department issued its 

questionnaire to Jietai Machinery but 

the questionnaire was returned as 

undeliverable. Despite our request to the 

petitioner, we received no alternative 

addresses for Jietai Machinery. 

Accordingly, consistent with the 

Department’s practice in similar 

circumstances,12 the Department is 

rescinding the administrative review 

with respect to Jietai Machinery. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

The Department preliminarily 

determines that a dumping margin of 

234.51 percent exists for PT Sunhere for 

the period February 1, 2016, through 

January 31, 2017.

Assessment of duties resulting from the 

final results of this review will pertain 

only to entries of subject merchandise 

(i.e., innerspring units from the PRC). 

Cash Deposit Requirements

administrative review for shipments of 

the subject merchandise from the PRC 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of this notice, as 

provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 

Act: (1) For PT Sunhere, the cash 

deposit rate will be that established in 

the final results of this review (except, 

if the rate is zero or de minimis, then 

zero cash deposit will be required) and 

the Department will collect cash 

deposits only on PT Sunhere’s PRCorigin merchandise; (2) for previously 

investigated or reviewed PRC and nonPRC 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 published 

for the most recently completed period; 

(3) for all PRC exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not been found 

to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash 

deposit rate will be the PRC-wide rate 

of 234.51 percent; and (4) for all nonPRC exporters of subject merchandise 

which have not received their own rate, 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

applicable to the PRC exporter that 

supplied that non-PRC exporter. These 

deposit requirements, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

Notification to Importers

Large Power Transformers From the 

Republic of Korea: Final Results of the 

Expedited First Sunset Review of the 

Antidumping Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of this sunset 

review, the Department of Commerce 

(the Department) finds that revocation 

of the antidumping duty order on large 

power transformers (LPTs) from the 

Republic of Korea (Korea) would be 

likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of dumping at the levels 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Sunset 

Review’’ section of this notice. 

DATES: Applicable November 7, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On July 3, 2017, the Department 

published the notice of initiation of the 

first sunset review of the antidumping 

duty order on LPTs from Korea, 

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).1 On 

July 18, 2017, the Department received 

a notice of intent to participate in this 

review from ABB Inc., (ABB) within the 

deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(i). ABB claimed interested 

party status under section 771(9)(C) of 

the Act, as a manufacturer of a domestic 

like product in the United States. 

On August 2, 2017, we received a 

complete substantive response for this 

review from ABB within the 30-day 

deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no 

substantive responses from any other 

interested parties, nor was a hearing 

requested. As a result, pursuant to 

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

CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the 

Department conducted an expedited 

(120-day) sunset review of the order. 

Scope of the Order 

The scope of this order covers large 

liquid dielectric power transformers 

(LPTs) having a top power handling 

capacity greater than or equal to 60,000 

kilovolt amperes (60 megavolt amperes), 

whether assembled or unassembled, 

complete or incomplete. 

Incomplete LPTs are subassemblies 

consisting of the active part and any 

other parts attached to, imported with or 

invoiced with the active parts of LPTs. 

The ‘‘active part’’ of the transformer 

consists of one or more of the following 

when attached to or otherwise 

assembled with one another: The steel 

core or shell, the windings, electrical 

insulation between the windings, the 

mechanical frame for an LPT. 

The product definition encompasses 

all such LPTs regardless of name 

designation, including but not limited to 

step-up transformers, step-down 

transformers, autotransformers, 

interconnection transformers, voltage 

regulator transformers, rectifier
