Proposed Foreign-Trade Zone— 

Hitchcock, Texas; Amendment of 

Application 

A request has been submitted to the 

Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board (the 

Board) by the Port of Houston Authority 

(PHA), grantee of FTZ 84, at the request 

of the City of Hitchcock, to amend the 

City’s pending application requesting 

authority to establish a new foreigntrade zone in Hitchcock, Texas. The 

pending application was docketed on 

October 6, 2015 (FTZ Board Docket B– 

66–2015, 80 FR 61358, October 13, 

2015). 

PHA is requesting authority to 

include the site originally proposed for 

FTZ designation as part of a new zone 

in Hitchcock, Texas as an additional 

magnet site of FTZ 84, adjacent to the 

Houston Customs and Border Protection 

port of entry. The proposed site is as 

follows: Proposed Site 1 (280.54 

acres)—Blimp Base, 7529 Blimp Base 

Road, Hitchcock. If approved, the 

proposed site would be assigned a new 

site number under FTZ 84. The 

amended application is limited to FTZ 

designation for the proposed Blimp Base 

site (i.e., it does not request authority for 

the ASF service area originally proposed 

in the application). 

Public comment is invited from 

interested parties. Submissions shall be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Department initiated this review 

on July 7, 2016.1 On June 6, 2017, the 

Department published the Preliminary 

Results of this administrative review.2

At that time, we invited interested 

parties to comment on the Preliminary 

Results. On July 6, 2017, we received a 

case brief from the Aluminum 

Extrusions Fair Trade Committee (the 

petitioner).3 No other parties submitted 

case or rebuttal briefs. These final 

results cover 10 companies and the 

PRC-wide entity for which an 

administrative review was initiated and 

not rescinded.4

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the 

Order 5 is aluminum extrusions which 

are shapes and forms, produced by an 

extrusion process, made from aluminum 

alloys having metallic elements 

corresponding to the alloy series 

designations published by The 

Aluminum Association commencing 

with the numbers 1, 3, and 6 (or 

proprietary equivalents or other 

certifying body equivalents).6

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in the case briefs 

filed by parties in this review are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, which is incorporated 

herein by reference. A list of the issues 

which any party raised, and to which 

we respond in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, follows 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). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at https://access.trade.gov and is

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

For the purposes of these final results, 

the Department made no changes to the 

Preliminary Results. 

PRC-Wide Entity 

For the purposes of the final results of 

this administrative review, the 

Department finds that the following 

entities are part of the PRC-wide entity 

because they failed to submit both a 

Q&V response and information to 

establish eligibility for a separate rate: 

(1) Kam Kiu; (2) Atlas Integrated 

Manufacturing Ltd.; (3) Classic & 

Contemporary Inc.; (4) Dongguan 

Golden Tiger Hardware Industrial Co., 

Ltd.; (5) Jiaxing Jackson Travel Products 

Co., Ltd.; (6) Taishan City Kam Kiu 

Aluminium Extrusion Co., Ltd.; (7) 

Shenyang Yuanda Aluminium Industry 

Engineering Co. Ltd.; (8) Sincere Profit 

Limited; and (9) Suzhou New Hongji 

Precision Part Co. 

The Department’s change in policy 

regarding conditional review of the 

PRC-wide entity applies to this 

administrative review.7 Under this 

policy, the PRC-wide entity will not be 

under review unless a party specifically

requests, or the Department selfinitiates, a review of the entity. The 

petitioner 8 requested a review of the 

PRC-wide entity in the instant review; 

therefore, the PRC-wide entity is 

currently under review and the rate for 

the PRC-wide entity is subject to 

change. 

Adjustments for Countervailable 

Subsidies 

Because no mandatory respondent 

established eligibility for an adjustment 

under section 777A(f) of the Act for 

countervailable domestic subsidies, the 

Department, for these final results, did 

not make an adjustment pursuant to 

section 777A(f) of the Act for 

countervailable domestic subsidies for 

the separate-rate recipients.9

Pursuant to section 772(c)(1)(C) of the 

Act, we made an adjustment for 

countervailable export subsidies for 

tenKsolar. We calculated this 

adjustment as the simple average of the 

countervailable export subsidies 

determined for the mandatory 

respondents in the 2014 (i.e., most 

recently completed) CVD administrative 

review 10 and deducted this amount 

from the weighted-average dumping 

margin assigned to tenKsolar.11 The 

adjusted rate for tenKsolar is 85.96 

percent. 

Pursuant to section 772(c)(1)(C) of the 

Act, we also made an adjustment for 

countervailable export subsidies for the 

PRC-wide entity. We adjusted the PRCwide entity cash deposit rate by the 

lowest countervailable export subsidy 

determined for the mandatory 

respondents in the 2014 (i.e., most 

recently completed) CVD administrative 

review.12

Final Results of Review 

The Department determines that the 

following weighted-average dumping 

margins exist for the 2015–2016 POR:

Weighted-average 

dumping margin 

(percent) 

Margin adjusted

PRC-wide Entity ........................................................................................................................................... 86.01 85.96 

Additionally, as explained above, the 

Department determines that the 

following companies are part of the 

PRC-wide entity: (1) Kam Kiu; (2) Atlas 

Integrated Manufacturing Ltd.; (3) 

Classic & Contemporary Inc.; (4) 

Dongguan Golden Tiger Hardware 

Industrial Co., Ltd.; (5) Jiaxing Jackson 

Travel Products Co., Ltd.; (6) Taishan 

City Kam Kiu Aluminium Extrusion Co., 

Ltd.; (7) Shenyang Yuanda Aluminium 

Industry Engineering Co. Ltd.; (8) 

Sincere Profit Limited; and (9) Suzhou 

New Hongji Precision Part Co. 

Assessment 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the 

Department will determine, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

final results of this review. The 

Department intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP 15 days after the 

date of publication of the final results of 

review in the Federal Register. 

Consistent with the Department’s 

assessment practice in NME cases, if the 

Department determines that an exporter 

under review had no shipments of 

subject merchandise, any suspended 

entries that entered under the exporter’s 

case number (i.e., at that exporter’s rate) 

will be liquidated at the PRC-wide 

rate.13 For the companies eligible for a 

separate rate, the Department will 

instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

duties on the company’s entries of 

subject merchandise at the rates listed 

above in the section ‘‘Final Results of 

Review.’’ 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for all shipments 

of the subject merchandise from the PRC 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date, as provided for by 

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

the companies eligible for a separate 

rate, the cash deposit rate will that 

listed above in the section ‘‘Final 

Results of Review;’’ (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 

exporter-specific rate published for the 

most-recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the exporter was 

reviewed; (3) for all PRC exporters of 

subject merchandise which have not 

been found to be entitled to a separate 

rate, the cash deposit rate will be that 

established for the PRC-wide entity, 

which is 85.96 percent; and (4) for all 

non-PRC 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 with the subject merchandise. 

These deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

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

certificate regarding the reimbursement 

of antidumping duties and/or 

countervailing duties prior to 

liquidation of the relevant entries 

during this POR. Failure to comply with 

this requirement could result in the 

Department’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

and/or countervailing duties occurred 

and the subsequent assessment of 

doubled antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

Regarding Administrative Protective 

Order 

This notice also serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which 

continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return or destruction 

of APO materials or conversion to 

judicial protective order is hereby 

requested. Failure to comply with the 

regulations and the terms of an APO is 

a sanctionable violation. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Department has received timely 

requests, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(b), for administrative reviews of 

various antidumping and countervailing 

duty orders and findings with 

September anniversary dates. 

All deadlines for the submission of 

various types of information, 

certifications, or comments or actions by 

the Department discussed below refer to 

the number of calendar days from the 

applicable starting time. 

Notice of No Sales 

If a producer or exporter named in 

this notice of initiation had no exports, 

sales, or entries during the period of 

review (POR), it must notify the 

Department within 30 days of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. All submissions must be filed 

electronically at http://access.trade.gov 

in accordance with 19 CFR 351.303.1

Such submissions are subject to 

verification in accordance with section 

782(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). Further, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.303(f)(1)(i), 

a copy must be served on every party on 

the Department’s service list. 

Respondent Selection 

In the event the Department limits the 

number of respondents for individual 

examination for administrative reviews 

initiated pursuant to requests made for 

the orders identified below, the 

Department 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 place the CBP data on the 

record within five days of publication of 

the initiation notice and to make our 

decision regarding respondent selection 

within 30 days of publication of the 

initiation Federal Register notice. 

Comments regarding the CBP data and 

respondent selection should be 

submitted seven days after the 

placement of the CBP data on the record 

of this review. Parties wishing to submit 

rebuttal comments should submit those 

comments five days after the deadline 

for the initial comments. 

In the event the Department decides 

it is necessary to limit individual 

examination of respondents and 

conduct respondent selection under 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act: 

In general, the Department has found 

that determinations concerning whether 

particular companies should be 

‘‘collapsed’’ (i.ee.g., 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, the Department 

will not conduct collapsing analyses at 

the respondent selection phase of this 

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 (e.g., investigation, 

administrative review, new shipper 

review or changed circumstances 

review). For any company subject to this 

review, if the Department determined, 

or continued to treat, that company as 

collapsed with others, the Department 

will assume that such companies 

continue to operate in the same manner 

and will collapse them for respondent 

selection purposes. Otherwise, the 

Department 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 

the Quantity and Value (Q&V) 

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 this 

proceeding where the Department 

considered collapsing that entity, 

complete Q&V 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 has requested 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 the Department 

may extend this time if it is reasonable 

to do so. In order to provide parties 

additional certainty with respect to 

when the Department will exercise its 

discretion to extend this 90-day 

deadline, interested parties are advised 

that the Department does not intend to 

extend the 90-day deadline unless the 

requestor demonstrates that an 

extraordinary circumstance has 

prevented it from submitting a timely 

withdrawal request. Determinations by 

the Department to extend the 90-day 

deadline will be made on a case-by-case 

basis.
