The Department of Commerce (Department) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on narrow woven ribbons with woven selvedge (woven ribbons) from the People's Republic of China (PRC) for the period of review (POR) September 1, 2015 through August 31, 2016. This review covers two PRC companies: Huzhou Kingdom Coating Industry Co., Ltd. (Huzhou Kingdom) and Huzhou Unifull Label Fabric Co., Ltd. (Huzhou Unifull). The Department preliminarily finds that neither Huzhou Unifull nor Huzhou Kingdom established eligibility for a separate rate, as Huzhou Unifull had no entries of subject merchandise during the POR and Huzhou Kingdom failed to participate in the proceeding. Furthermore, the Department is rescinding administrative review with respect to Huzhou BeiHeng Textile Co., Ltd. (Huzhou BeiHeng) and Huzhou Siny Label Material Co., Ltd. (Huzhou Siny). Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Department) is conducting an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on narrow woven 
ribbons with woven selvedge (woven ribbons) from the People's Republic 
of China (PRC) for the period of review (POR) September 1, 2015 through 
August 31, 2016. This review covers two PRC companies: Huzhou Kingdom 
Coating Industry Co., Ltd. (Huzhou Kingdom) and Huzhou Unifull Label 
Fabric Co., Ltd. (Huzhou Unifull). The Department preliminarily finds 
that neither Huzhou Unifull nor Huzhou Kingdom established eligibility 
for a separate rate, as Huzhou Unifull had no entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR and Huzhou Kingdom failed to participate in 
the proceeding. Furthermore, the Department is rescinding 
administrative review with respect to Huzhou BeiHeng Textile Co., Ltd. 
(Huzhou BeiHeng) and Huzhou Siny Label Material Co., Ltd. (Huzhou 
Siny). Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary 
results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 17, 2010, the Department published in the Federal 
Register an amended antidumping duty order on woven ribbons from the 
PRC.\1\ On September 8, 2016, the Department published in the Federal 
Register a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of 
the Order.\2\ On September 27, 2016, Avery Dennison Corporation (Avery 
Dennison) timely requested a review of four companies: Huzhou BeiHeng, 
Huzhou Siny, Huzhou Kingdom, and Huzhou Unifull.\3\ Additionally, on 
September 30, 2016, Berwick Offray LLC and its subsidiary Lion Ribbon 
Company, LLC (the petitioner) timely requested a review \4\ of the 
producer/exporter Yama Ribbons and Bows Co., Ltd. (Yama Ribbons). 
However, the Department determined in the underlying investigation that 
merchandise produced and exported by Yama Ribbons is excluded from the 
antidumping duty order; as a result, the Department did not initiate an 
administrative review on Yama Ribbons.\5\ On November 9, 2016, the 
Department initiated a review of four companies: Huzhou BeiHeng, Huzhou 
Siny, Huzhou Kingdom, and Huzhou Unifull.\6\ On May 31, 2017, the 
Department extended the deadline for the preliminary results by a total 
of 26 days until June 28, 2017.\7\ On June 28, 2017, the Department 
extended the deadline for the preliminary results by an additional 14 
days until July 12, 2017.\8\

Methodology

    The Department is conducting this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For a 
full description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum. This 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 http://access.trade.gov and in the Central Records Unit, room B8024 of the 
main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version 
of the Preliminary Results Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly 
on the Internet at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. The 
signed Preliminary Results Decision Memorandum and the electronic 
versions of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in 
content.

Preliminary Results of Review

    The Department preliminarily finds that both Huzhou Kingdom and 
Huzhou Unifull have failed to demonstrate eligibility for a separate 
rate and, therefore, they are considered part of the PRC-wide entity. 
The Department finds that Huzhou Kingdom did not submit a certification 
of no sales, a separate rate application, or a separate rate 
certification. With respect to Huzhou Unifull, the Department 
preliminary finds there are no reviewable entries during the POR and, 
thus, Huzhou Unifull has failed to demonstrate eligibility for a 
separate rate. Both Avery Dennison and Huzhou Unifull submitted the 
same CBP Form 7501 to indicate an entry of subject merchandise by 
Huzhou Unifull. However, after examination, the Department determines 
that the CBP Form 7501 does not correspond to a sale by Huzhou Unifull 
and as such, found there are no reviewable entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Preliminary Decision Memo.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party that requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. Huzhou 
BeiHeng and Huzhou Siny withdrew their respective requests for an 
administrative review within 90 days of the date of publication of 
Initiation Notice.\11\ Accordingly, the Department is rescinding this 
review with respect to Huzhou BeiHeng and Huzhou Siny, in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See letter from Avery Dennison to the Department, Re: 
``Narrow Woven Ribbons with Woven Selvedge from China: Withdrawal 
from the Administrative Review,'' dated February 7, 2017.
    \12\ See Appendix. As stated in Change in Practice in NME 
Reviews, the Department no longer considers the non-market economy 
(NME) entity as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative 
reviews. See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in 
Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty 
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity 
in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963 (November 4, 2013) 
(Change in Practice in NME Reviews). The PRC-wide entity is not 
subject to this administrative review because no interested party 
requested a review of the entity. See Initiation Notice, 81 FR at 
78778 (November 9, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure and Public Comment

    Interested parties are invited to comment on the preliminary 
results and may submit case briefs and/or written comments, filed

comments and hearing requests must be received successfully in their 
entirety by the Department's electronic records system, ACCESS, by 5:00

publication of this notice.\13\ Hearing requests should contain: (1) 
The party's name, address and telephone number; (2) the number of

U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington 
DC 20230. Unless the deadline is extended pursuant to section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), the Department 
intends to issue the final results of this administrative review, 
including the results of its analysis of the issues raised in any

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

    \13\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results, the Department will determine, 
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.\14\ The 
Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after the publication date of the final results of this review. For the 
companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall 
be assessed at 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)(l)(i). The Department 
intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 
days after publication of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the 
final results of review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 
Act: (1) For exports of merchandise exported by Huzhou Kingdom, the 
cash deposit rate is the PRC-wide rate of 247.26 percent; (2) for 
exports of merchandise exported by Huzhou Unifull, the cash deposit 
rate is the PRC-wide rate of 247.26; (3) for previously investigated or 
reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters which are not under review in this 
segment of the proceeding but which have separate rates, the cash 
deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published 
for the most recent period; (4) for all PRC exporters of subject 
merchandise that

[[Page 33061]]

have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit 
rate will be the PRC-wide rate of 247.26 percent; and (5) 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(s) that supplied that non-PRC exporter. These deposit 
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further 
notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also 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 Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213.

    Dated: July 12, 2017.

Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the
