Intent To Rescind Administrative Review, in Part

    We received timely filed no-shipment certifications from Zhejiang 
Shuimojiangnan New Material Technology Co., Ltd. on April 3, 2015, and 
from Tongxiang Jisheng Import and Export Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Guyu 
International Trading Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Mingle Flooring Co., Ltd., 
Shenyang Senwang Wooden Industry Co., Ltd., Changbai Mountain 
Development and Protection Zone Hongtu Wood Industrial Co, Ltd., and 
Linyi Bonn Flooring Manufacturing Co., Ltd. on April 6, 2015.\2\ 
Because there is no evidence on the record to indicate that these 
companies had entries of subject merchandise during the POR, pursuant 
to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), we intend to rescind the review with respect 
to these companies. A final decision regarding whether to rescind the 
review of these companies will be made in the final results of this 
review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See letter from Zhejiang Shuimojiangnan New Material 
Technology Co., Ltd., ``Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's 
Republic of China-No Sales Certification,'' dated April 3, 2015; see 
also letter from Tongxiang Jisheng Import and Export Co., Ltd., 
Jiangsu Guyu International Trading Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Mingle

Industrial Co., Ltd., and Linyi Bonn Flooring Manufacturing Co.,

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    We are conducting this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For each 
of the subsidy programs found to be countervailable, we preliminarily 
find that there is a subsidy, i.e., a government-provided financial 
contribution that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that 
the subsidy is specific.\3\ For a full description of the methodology 
underlying our conclusions, see Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See sections 771(5)(B) and (D) of the Act regarding 
financial contribution; section 771(5)(E) of the Act regarding 
benefit; and, section 771(5A) of the Act regarding specificity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Results of the Review

    In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4)(i), we calculated a 
countervailable subsidy rate for each of the mandatory respondents, 
Penghong and Lizhong.
    For the non-selected respondents, we have followed the Department's 
practice, which is to base the subsidy rates on an average of the 
subsidy rates calculated for those companies selected for individual 
review, excluding de minimis rates or rates based entirely on adverse 
facts available.\4\ In this case, we have preliminarily assigned to the 
non-selected respondents the simple average of the rates calculated for 
Penghong and Lizhong due to inconsistent units of measure in the 
publicly ranged quantity and value data provided by Penghong and 
Lizhong.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See, e.g., Certain Pasta From Italy: Preliminary Results of 
the 13th (2008) Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 
18806, 18811 (April 13, 2010), unchanged in Certain Pasta from 
Italy: Final Results of the 13th (2008) Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Review, 75 FR 37386 (June 29, 2010).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We preliminarily find the countervailable subsidy rates for the 
producers/exporters under review to be as follows: \5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Department published a Correction of Notice of 
Initiation, 80 FR 11166 (March 2, 2015) and removed Zhejiang Layo 
Wood Industry Co. Ltd(``Layo Wood'') because this company was 
excluded from the countervailing duty order in the investigation.
