Abstract
The Commission invites comments from the public on whether changed circumstances exist sufficient to warrant the institution of a review pursuant to section 751(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(b)) (the Act) regarding the Commission's affirmative determinations in investigation Nos. 701-TA-471 and 731-TA-1170 (Final). The purpose of the proposed review would be to determine whether revocation of the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of coated paper suitable for high-quality print graphics using sheet-fed presses (certain coated paper) from Indonesia would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury (19 U.S.C. 1675(b)(2)(A)).

SUMMARY: The Commission invites comments from the public on whether
changed circumstances exist sufficient to warrant the institution of a
review pursuant to section 751(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.

determinations in investigation Nos. 701-TA-471 and 731-TA-1170

whether revocation of the existing antidumping and countervailing duty
orders on imports of coated paper suitable for high-quality print
graphics using sheet-fed presses (certain coated paper) from Indonesia

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--In November 2010, the
Commission determined that an industry in the United States was
threatened with material injury by reason of imports of certain coated
paper from China and Indonesia (75 FR 70289, November 17, 2010) that
had been found by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) to be sold
in the United States at less than fair value (LTFV), and that had been
found by Commerce to be subsidized by the governments of China and
Indonesia (75 FR 59209, 75 FR 59212, 75 FR 59217, and 75 FR 59223,
September 27, 2010). Effective November 17, 2010, Commerce issued
antidumping and countervailing duty orders (75 FR 70201, 75 FR 70203,
75 FR 70205, and 75 FR 70206, November 17, 2010).
Following affirmative determinations in the first five-year reviews
by Commerce and the Commission, effective January 6, 2017, Commerce
issued a continuation of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders
on imports of certain coated paper from China and Indonesia (82 FR
1692, January 6, 2017). Following affirmative determinations in the
second five-year reviews by Commerce and the Commission, effective June
13, 2022, Commerce issued a continuation of the antidumping and
countervailing duty orders on imports of certain coated paper from
China and Indonesia (87 FR 35733, June 13, 2022).
On December 3, 2025, the Commission received a request to review
its affirmative determinations in investigation Nos. 701-TA-471 and
731-TA-1170 (Final) pursuant to section 751(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1675(b)). The request was filed by PT. Pindo Deli Pulp and Paper Mills
(``Pindo Deli'') and PT. Indah Kiat Pulp & Paper Tbk. (``Indah Kiat'')
(for purposes of this notice, collectively ``the Requestors''). The
Requestors argue that structural changes sufficient to warrant a
changed circumstances review have occurred within the Indonesian
industry since the Commission determined that the domestic industry was
threatened with material injury by reason of subject imports from
Indonesia. The Requestors contend that there has been a ``significant''
and ``permanent'' reduction in the capacity to produce the subject
merchandise by the industry in Indonesia, which they assert has
contracted to only two producers. The Requestors further contend that
there has been a ``marked shift away from exports toward home market
sales'' such
[[Page 1558]]
that, in their view, the Indonesian industry producing the subject
merchandise ``is no longer export oriented.'' They argue that these
changes have not been the ``natural and direct result'' of the subject
orders but rather of market factors leading to the shifting of capacity
and increasing focus on home market sales.
Written comments requested.--Pursuant to section 207.45(b) of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.45(b)), the
Commission requests comments concerning whether the alleged changed
circumstances, brought about by the aforementioned changes in the
industry producing certain coated paper in Indonesia, are sufficient to
warrant institution of a review.
Written submissions.--Comments must be filed with the Secretary to
the Commission by March 4, 2026. All written submissions must conform
with the provisions of Sec. 201.8 of the Commission's rules; any
submissions that contain business proprietary information must also
conform with the requirements of Sec. Sec. 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of
the Commission's rules. The Commission has not included a process for
access to business proprietary information pursuant to an
administrative protective order during the pre-institution comment
period in this proceeding (See 56 FR 11918, 11922 (March 21, 1991)). In
the event that the Commission finds sufficient changed circumstances to
warrant institution of a review following the comment period, access to
business proprietary information under an administrative protective
order will be available at that time. The Commission's Handbook on
Filing Procedures, available on the Commission's website at <a href="https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf">https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf</a>, elaborates
upon the Commission's procedures with respect to filings.
Please note the Secretary's Office will accept only electronic
filings at this time. Filings must be made through the Commission's
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>).
No in-person paper-based filings or paper copies of any electronic
filings will be accepted until further notice.
Authority: This notice is published pursuant to section 207.45 of
the Commission's rules.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: January 9, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
