SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the order 

is SSB. SSB means articles of stainless 

steel in straight lengths that have been 

either hot-rolled, forged, turned, colddrawn, cold-rolled or otherwise coldfinished, or ground, having a uniform 

solid cross section along their whole 

length in the shape of circles, segments 

of circles, ovals, rectangles (including 

squares), triangles, hexagons, octagons, 

or other convex polygons. SSB includes 

cold-finished SSBs that are turned or 

ground in straight lengths, whether 

produced from hot-rolled bar or from 

straightened and cut rod or wire, and 

reinforcing bars that have indentations, 

ribs, grooves, or other deformations 

produced during the rolling process. 

Except as specified above, the term 

does not include stainless steel semifinished products, cut-to-length flatrolled products (i.e., cut-to-length rolled 

products which if less than 4.75 mm in 

thickness have a width measuring at 

least 10 times the thickness, or if 4.75 

mm or more in thickness having a width 

which exceeds 150 mm and measures at 

least twice the thickness), wire (i.e., 

cold-formed products in coils, of any 

uniform solid cross section along their 

whole length, which do not conform to 

the definition of flat-rolled products), 

and angles, shapes, and sections. 

Imports of these products are 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

7222.10.00, 7222.11.00, 7222.19.00, 

7222.20.00, 7222.30.00 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS). 

Although the HTS subheadings are 

provided for convenience and customs 

purposes, our written description of the 

scope of the Order is dispositive. 

Background 

Carpenter Technology Corporation, 

Crucible Industries LLC, Electralloy, a 

Division of G,O, Carlson, Inc., North 

American Stainless, Universal Stainless 

& Alloy Products, Inc., and Valbruna 

Slater Stainless, Inc. (the petitioners) 

timely requested an administrative 

review of Ambica, Bhansali, and 

Ambica Stainless Steel Limited (now 

known as Aamor Inox Limited) (ASSL).1

As such, the Department published in 

the Federal Register a notice of 

initiation of this administrative review 

of the antidumping duty order on SSB 

from India for Ambica and Bhansali.2

Partial Rescission of Administrative 

Review 

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

Department will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the parties that requested a 

review withdraw the request within 90 

days of the date of publication of the 

notice of initiation. The petitioners 

timely withdrew their request for review 

of ASSL.3 No other party requested a 

review of this producer/exporter. 

Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1), the Department is 

rescinding this review of the AD order 

on SSB from the PRC with respect to 

ASSL. 

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments 

We received timely certifications from 

Bhansali and Ambica reporting that they 

had no shipments of the subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POR and requested that the 

Department rescind the review with 

respect to it.4 As detailed in the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum, the 

Department preliminarily determines 

that both Bhansali and Ambica had no 

shipments during the POR.5

Consistent with our practice, we will 

complete the review and issue 

appropriate instructions to CBP based 

on the final results of this review.6

Public Comment 

Interested parties may submit case 

briefs no later than 30 days after the

Unless the deadline is extended 

pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) and 19 

CFR 351.213(h)(2), the Department

publication of these preliminary results,

Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1). 

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. 

Dated: October 31, 2017.

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.
