Abstract
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily finds that certain hardwood plywood products (hardwood plywood) from the People's Republic of China (China) were sold in the United States at below normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR) September 26, 2021, through December 31, 2022. Commerce also preliminarily finds that 19 companies had no subject shipments of hardwood plywood and that these companies will be eligible to participate in the certification program previously established with respect to the antidumping duty order on certain hardwood plywood products from China. Further, Commerce preliminarily determines that three companies subject to this review are part of the China-wide entity because they had shipments of subject merchandise and did not demonstrate eligibility for a separate rate. Finally, we are rescinding this review with respect to 73 companies. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary results.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily finds
that certain hardwood plywood products (hardwood plywood) from the
People's Republic of China (China) were sold in the United States at
below normal value (NV) during the period of review (POR) September 26,
2021, through December 31, 2022. Commerce also preliminarily finds that
19 companies had no subject shipments of hardwood plywood and that
these companies will be eligible to participate in the certification
program previously established with respect to the antidumping duty
order on certain hardwood plywood products from China. Further,
Commerce preliminarily determines that three companies subject to this
review are part of the China-wide entity because they had shipments of
subject merchandise and did not demonstrate eligibility for a separate
rate. Finally, we are rescinding this review with respect to 73
companies. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary
results.
DATES: Applicable August 15, 2024.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rachel Jennings, AD/CVD Operations,

Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-1110.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 4, 2018, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
antidumping duty order on hardwood plywood from China.\1\ On January 3,
2023, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of
opportunity to request an administrative review of the Order covering
entries of hardwood plywood from China from January 1, 2022, through
December 31, 2022.\2\ On March 14, 2023, based on timely requests for
an administrative review, Commerce initiated the administrative review
with respect to 98 companies.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People's
Republic of China: Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value, and Antidumping Duty Order, 83 FR 504 (January 4, 2018)
(Order).
\2\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative
Review and Join Annual Inquiry Service List, 88 FR 45 (January 3,
2023).
\3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 88 FR 15642 (March 14, 2023) (Initiation
Notice). Although we initiated this review with respect to 109
individual company names, we previously found that several of these
companies were the same entity, while a number of other companies
were duplicated via minor name variations. For further discussion,
see Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Results of
the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Certain Hardwood
Plywood Products from the People's Republic of China and Partial
Rescission; 2021-2022,'' dated concurrently with this notice
(Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 20, 2023, we published in the Federal Register the
Circumvention Final Determination, in which we: (1) determined that
certain hardwood plywood exported from the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam (Vietnam) and entered into the United States was circumventing
the Order and therefore is now covered by the Order; and (2)
established a certification program to allow eligible producers and
exporters of hardwood plywood exported from Vietnam to certify that
entries of hardwood plywood exported from Vietnam are not subject to
the Order.\4\
[[Page 66347]]
We also indicated that we would: (1) expand the POR for this
administrative review to begin on September 26, 2021, so as to capture
the first entry suspended as a result of the circumvention
determination; and (2) allow interested parties to request reviews of
unliquidated/suspended entries of merchandise from Vietnam that entered
from September 26, 2021, through December 31, 2021.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People's
Republic of China: Final Scope Determination and Affirmative Final
Determination of Circumvention of the Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Orders, 88 FR 46740 (July 20, 2023) (Circumvention Final
Determination), and the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum
(IDM).
\5\ See Circumvention Final Determination IDM at Comment 13.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On August 11, 2023, Commerce notified parties that we received no
additional requests for administrative reviews as a result of
Commerce's decision to expand the POR,\6\ and on August 23, 2023,
Commerce released entry data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to interested parties for comment.\7\ Subsequently, we notified
parties of our intent to rescind this administrative review with
respect to 73 of the 98 companies subject to this review because they
either had no suspended entries during the POR or had all requests for
review withdrawn.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ See Memorandum ``Companies Under Review for the Expanded
POR,'' dated August 11, 2023.
\7\ See Memorandum, ``CBP Data Release,'' dated August 23, 2023.
\8\ See Memorandum, ``Notice of Intent to Rescind Review, In
Part,'' dated June 27, 2024 (Intent to Rescind Memorandum) at
Attachment III.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On January 31, 2024, Commerce deferred the deadline for completing
the preliminary results of this review until July 30, 2024.\9\ On July
22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this administrative
proceeding by seven days.\10\ The deadline for the preliminary results
is now August 6, 2024. For details regarding the events that occurred
subsequent to the initiation of the review, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Memorandum, ``Deferral of the Preliminary Results of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews; 2022,''
dated January 31, 2024.
\10\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated July 22, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the scope of this Order is hardwood
plywood from China. A complete description of the scope of the Order is
contained in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), when there are no reviewable
entries of subject merchandise during the POR subject to the
antidumping duty order for which liquidation is suspended, Commerce may
rescind an administrative review, in whole or only with respect to a
particular exporter or producer.\11\ At the end of the administrative
review, any suspended entries are liquidated at the assessment rate
computed for the review period.\12\ Therefore, for an administrative
review to be conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry to
be liquidated at the newly calculated assessment rate. On June 27,
2024, Commerce notified all interested parties of its intent to rescind
this review with respect to 67 companies because those companies had no
reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise and invited
parties to comment.\13\ We received no comments on our intent to
rescind the review with respect to these companies. Accordingly, in the
absence of suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR for
these 67 companies for which this review was initiated, we are hereby
rescinding this administrative review, in part, with respect to these
companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See, e.g., Forged Steel Fittings from Taiwan: Rescission of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2018-2019, 85 FR 71317,
71318 (November 9, 2020); see also Certain Circular Welded Non-Alloy
Steel Pipe from Mexico: Rescission of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review; 2016-2017, 83 FR 54084 (October 26, 2018).
\12\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
\13\ See Intent to Rescind Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In addition, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will
rescind an administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the
date of publication of the notice of initiation. All parties timely
withdrew their review requests for: (1) Fulin Wood Import Export
Company Limited; (2) Greatwood Joint Stock Company; (3) Greentech
Investment Co., Ltd.; (4) Long Dat Import and Export Production Company
; (5) Star Light Multimedia Co., Ltd.; and (6) VietBac Plywood LLC.
Because the review requests were timely withdrawn, and no other party
requested a review of these companies, Commerce is rescinding this
review with respect to these six companies (see Appendix II for a list
of all companies for which Commerce is rescinding this review).
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR
351.213. For a full description of the methodology underlying these
preliminary results, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. See
Appendix III for a complete list of topics discussed in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum. 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
<a href="http://access.trade.gov">http://access.trade.gov</a>. In addition, a complete version of the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is available at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx">https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx</a>.
Preliminary Determination of No Shipments
In this administrative review, we issued questionnaires to all
companies under review to gather information on the quantity and value
(Q&V) of their shipments of hardwood plywood to the United States.\14\
We received responses to these questionnaires from 22 companies, all of
which reported that their suspended entries consisted exclusively of
non-subject merchandise. We issued additional questionnaires to these
companies and received complete responses from only 15 of them. We have
analyzed the information in these responses and preliminarily find that
these 15 companies have provided information to support their claims
that the hardwood plywood they exported to the United States are of
non-subject plywood. We are also preliminarily accepting the claims of
four additional companies from which Commerce is awaiting additional
information, pending the receipt of the requested information.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ See Commerce's Letter, ``Quantity and Value
Questionnaire,'' dated November 20, 2023; see also Memorandum,
``Clarification of Companies Required to Submit Responses to Q&V
Questionnaire,'' dated November 28, 2023; and Commerce's Letters,
``Request for Entry Information,'' dated February 5, 2024
(collectively, Q&V Questionnaire).
\15\ The responses to the questionnaires issued to the following
companies are currently due on or after the date of these
preliminary results: An An Plywood Joint Stock Company, Cosco Star
International Co., Ltd., Greatwood Hung Yen Joint Stock Company, and
Thang Long Wood Panel Company (Thang Long).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We also preliminarily find it appropriate to permit the 15
companies noted above, as well as Thang Long, to participate in the
certification program
[[Page 66348]]
at the conclusion of this administrative review. The other three
companies are currently eligible to participate in this certification
program, and we preliminarily find no basis to alter their status.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ See Appendix I for a complete list of companies subject to
this review that are preliminarily eligible to certify their entries
of hardwood plywood exported from Vietnam.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
China-Wide Entity
Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative review.\17\ Under this policy,
the China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party
specifically requests, or Commerce self-initiates, a review of the
China-wide entity.\18\ Because no party requested a review of the
China-wide entity in this review, the China-wide entity is not under
review. For additional information, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.

Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Rates
In this administrative review, three companies under review had
suspended entries but failed to provide Separate Rate Applications
(SRAs) or separate rate certifications (SRCs)and/or responses to the
Q&V Questionnaire. These companies are Hoang Lam Plywood Joint Stock
Co. (Hoang Lam), Quang Phat Wood Joint Stock Company (Quang Phat), and
Shanghai Luli Trading Co., Ltd. (Shanghai Luli). Commerce noted in its
SRA that exporters must respond to Commerce's Q&V questionnaire as well
as submit an SRA or SRC in order to receive consideration for separate
rate status.\19\ As a result, we consider Hoang Lam, Quang Phat, and
Shanghai Luli to be part of the China-wide entity. At the conclusion of
the review, we intend to liquidate any suspended entries from these
companies at the current rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 114.72
percent).\20\ For additional information, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.

\19\ See Commerce's Separate Rate Application at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nme-sep-rate.html">https://access.trade.gov/Resources/nme/nme-sep-rate.html</a> (Commerce's

Republic of China: Notice of Decision Not in Harmony with the Final
Determination of Antidumping Duty Investigation; Notice of Amended
Determination pursuant to Court Decision; and Notice of Revocation
of Antidumping Duty Order, In Part, 88 FR 77966 (November 14, 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Three additional companies under review (i.e., Groll Ply and
Cabinetry Co., Ltd. (Groll Ply), Plywood Sunshine Co., Ltd. (Plywood
Sunshine), and Quoc Thai Forestry Import Export Limited Company (Quoc
Thai)) had suspended entries of plywood exported from Vietnam and
submitted both responses to the Q&V Questionnaire and SRAs. We
preliminarily find that these three companies have demonstrated
eligibility for separate rates. As noted below, we have assigned Groll
Ply, Plywood Sunshine, and Quoc Thai, a dumping margin based on adverse
facts available (AFA).
Use of Adverse Facts Available
Groll Ply, Plywood Sunshine, and Quoc Thai had entries of plywood
during the POR that they claimed were of non-subject merchandise. We
required these companies to provide information related to these
entries, but they did not respond to these requests for information,
and therefore, we are preliminary finding that Groll Ply, Plywood
Sunshine, and Quoc Thai failed to support their claims that their
entries of plywood during the POR were not of subject merchandise.\21\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\21\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act, Commerce has
assigned Groll Ply, Plywood Sunshine, and Quoc Thai a dumping margin of
89.10 percent based on AFA, offset by the export subsidies determined
in the companion countervailing duty (CVD) administrative review. These
three companies ceased participating in this review and did not provide
information requested by Commerce; accordingly, we find that necessary
information is not available on the record, they failed to provide the
requested information in the form and manner requested, and
significantly impeded the proceeding, pursuant to section 776(a) of the
Act. Additionally, we find that Groll Ply, Plywood Sunshine, and Quoc
Thai had necessary information in their possession and elected not to
submit the information and, thus, the three companies did not act to
the best of their abilities in responding to Commerce's information
requests by the applicable deadline, pursuant to section 776(b) of the
Act. For additional information regarding this determination, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Commerce preliminarily determines that the following dumping
margins exist for the period of September 26, 2021, through December
31, 2022, for entries of hardwood plywood exported by these companies:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dumping margin
Exporter (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Groll Ply and Cabinetry Co., Ltd........................ * 89.10
Plywood Sunshine Co., Ltd............................... * 89.10
Quoc Thai Forestry Import Export Limited Company........ * 89.10
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This rate was determined wholly under section 776 of the Act, and was
offset by the export subsidies calculated in the companion CVD
administrative review.\22\
Disclosure
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\22\ See Certain Hardwood Plywood Products from the People's
Republic of China: Notice of Decision Not in Harmony with the Final
Determination of Antidumping Duty Investigation; Notice of Amended
Determination pursuant to Court Decision; and Notice of Revocation
of Antidumping Duty Order, In Part, 88 FR 77966 (November 14, 2023);
see also Memorandum, ``Export Subsidies Rate,'' dated concurrently
with this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in preliminary results within five days of any public
announcement or, if there is no public announcement, 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). However,
because Commerce is applying AFA to the above companies, there are no
calculations to disclose.
Certification Eligibility
Due to their failure to provide necessary information for
determining certification eligibility, we preliminarily determine that
Groll Ply, Hoang Lam, Plywood Sunshine, Quang Phat, and Quoc Thai
remain barred from participating in the certification program in this
proceeding.
Verification
From July 1 through July 10, 2024, we conducted verification of the
questionnaire responses of five exporters/producers under review, Arrow
Forest International Co., Ltd., Hai Hien Bamboo Wood Joint Stock
Company, Lechenwood Viet Nam Company Limited, Long Luu Plywood
Production Co., Ltd., and TL Trung Viet Company Limited. We intend to
verify the information submitted by the remaining exporters listed in
Appendix I after the preliminary results.
Public Comment
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.309(c), case briefs or other written
comments may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement
and Compliance no later than seven days
[[Page 66349]]
after the date on which the last verification report is issued.
Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in case briefs, may be
submitted no later than five days after the deadline for case
briefs.\23\ Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), parties who
submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this review are encouraged to
submit with each argument: (1) a statement of the issue; (2) a brief
summary of the argument; and (3) a table of authorities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\23\ See 19 CFR 351.309; see also 19 CFR 351.303 (for general
filing requirements).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As provided under 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior
proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an
executive summary of their briefs that should be limited to five pages
total, including footnotes. In this review, we instead request that
interested parties provide at the beginning of their briefs a public,
executive summary for each issue raised in their briefs.\24\ Further,
we request that interested parties limit their public executive summary
of each issue to no more than 450 words, not including citations. We
intend to use the public executive summaries as the basis of the
comment summaries included in the issues and decision memorandum that
will accompany the final results in this administrative review. We
request that interested parties include footnotes for relevant
citations in the public executive summary of each issue. Note that
Commerce has amended certain of its requirements pertaining to the
service of documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).\25\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\24\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
\25\ See Administrative Protective Order, Service, and Other
Procedures in Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings, 88 FR
67069, 67077 (September 29, 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing, limited to issues raised in the case and rebuttal
briefs, must submit a written request to the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, within 30 days
after the date of publication of this notice. Requests should contain
the party's name, address, and telephone number, the number of
participants, whether any participant is a foreign national, and a list
of the issues to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is made,
Commerce intends to hold the hearing at a time and date to be
determined. Parties should confirm by telephone the date, time, and
location of the hearing two days before the scheduled date.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results of this review, Commerce shall
determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review.\26\ For all entries of merchandise
exported by the companies listed in Appendix I, we intend to instruct
CBP to liquidate the entries without regard to antidumping duties in
these preliminary results are unchanged for the final results. For
entries of merchandise exported by Hoang Lam, Quang Phat, and Shanghai
Luli, which are part of the China-wide entity, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate their entries at the current rate for the China-wide entity
(i.e., 114.72 percent). For all suspended entries of merchandise
exported by Groll Ply, Plywood Sunshine, and Quoc Thai, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate their entries at the assigned rate of 89.10
percent. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results
of this review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at
the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will
direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties
to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within
90 days of publication).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\26\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies (see Appendix II) for which this review is
rescinded with these preliminary results, we will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to
the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time
of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the
period September 26, 2021, through December 31, 2022, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). Commerce intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the preliminary results of this review in the Federal
Register. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of
International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to
liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request
for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 90 days of
publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for
shipments of 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 rates for Groll Ply, Plywood Sunshine,
and Quoc Thai, will be 89.10 percent; (2) for previously investigated
or reviewed exporters that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate
will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the most
recently completed segment of this proceeding; (3) for all Chinese
exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be
entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate for
the China-wide entity (i.e., 114.72 percent); (4) for all non-Chinese
exporters of subject merchandise that have not received their own rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the exporter that
supplied that non-Chinese exporter, where available, or the rate for
the China-wide entity (i.e., 114.72), if no alternate rate is
available. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, which will include the results
of its analysis of issues raised in any briefs, within 120 days of
publication of these preliminary results of review, pursuant to section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure
to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption
that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties occurred
and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These preliminary results of administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(l) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: August 6, 2024.
