The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on multilayered wood flooring (MLWF) from the People's Republic of China (China). The period of review (POR) is December 1, 2015, through November 30, 2016. The review covers two mandatory respondents, Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and Wood Industry Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu Senmao) and Jilin Forest Industry Jinqiao Flooring Group Co., Ltd. (Jinqiao Flooring). We preliminarily determine that sales of subject merchandise by Jiangsu Senmao have not been made at prices below normal value (NV) and that Jinqiao Flooring is not eligible for a separate rate and, therefore, remains part of the China-wide entity. In addition, we are preliminarily granting separate rates to 70 producers/exporters, including Jiangsu Senmao, and determine that 16 producer/exporters made no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Finally, we are rescinding the review with respect to Dalian Penghong Floor Products Co., Ltd. (Dalian Penghong). We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary results.

Multilayered Wood Flooring From the People's Republic of China: 
Preliminary Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 
Preliminary Determination of No Shipments, and Rescission of Review, in 
Part; 2015-2016

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is conducting an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on multilayered 
wood flooring (MLWF) from the People's Republic of China (China). The 
period of review (POR) is December 1, 2015, through November 30, 2016. 
The review covers two mandatory respondents, Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and 
Wood Industry Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu Senmao) and Jilin Forest Industry 
Jinqiao Flooring Group Co., Ltd. (Jinqiao Flooring).
    We preliminarily determine that sales of subject merchandise by 
Jiangsu Senmao have not been made at prices below normal value (NV) and 
that Jinqiao Flooring is not eligible for a separate rate and, 
therefore, remains part of the China-wide entity. In addition, we are 
preliminarily granting separate rates to 70 producers/exporters, 
including Jiangsu Senmao, and determine that 16 producer/exporters made 
no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Finally, we are 
rescinding the review with respect to Dalian Penghong Floor Products 
Co., Ltd. (Dalian Penghong). We invite interested parties to comment on 
these preliminary results.

DATES: Applicable January 16, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by the Order is wood flooring from China. For a 
complete description of the scope of this administrative review, see 
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Memorandum to Gary Taverman, Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, performing the 
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance, from James P. Maeder Senior Director 
performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 
and Countervailing Duty Operations, ``Decision Memorandum for the 
Preliminary Results in the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 
Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's Republic of China; 
2015-2016,'' (Preliminary Decision Memorandum), dated concurrently 
with, and hereby adopted by, this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission of Review

    Commerce initiated a review of 116 companies in this administrative 
review. \2\ The requests for review of Dalian Penghong were timely 
withdrawn.\3\ Accordingly, we are rescinding the administrative review 
with respect to this company.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 10457 (February 13, 2017) (Initiation 
Notice); see also Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 57705 (December 7, 2017) (Second 
Initiation Notice). Commerce notes that the Second Initiation Notice 
contained a typographical error in the spelling of ``Dun Hua Sen Tai 
Wood Co., Ltd.'' This determination corrects the second notice of 
initiation and reflects the accurate spelling.
    \3\ See Letters from the Coalition for American Hardwood Parity, 
``Partial Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review: 
Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's Republic of China,'' 
and Dalian Penghong, ``Multilayered Wood Flooring from the People's 
Republic of China; Withdrawal of Request for Review,'' both dated 
March 27, 2017.
    \4\ See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    Sixteen companies submitted timely-filed certifications that they 
had no exports, sales, or entries of subject merchandise during the 
POR. Accordingly, Commerce, consistent with its practice, requested 
that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)

[[Page 2138]]

conduct a query of potential shipments made by these companies. Based 
on an analysis of the CBP information and the no shipment 
certifications, Commerce preliminarily determines that these 16 
companies had no shipments during the POR.\5\ For additional 
information regarding this determination, see the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Appendix II for a list of these companies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Consistent with our practice in non-market economy (NME) cases, 
Commerce is not rescinding this administrative review with respect to 
these companies but, rather, intends to complete the review and issue 
appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final results of the 
review.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694, 65694-95 (October 24, 2011) (NME 
AD Assessment) and the ``Assessment Rates'' section, below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rates

    Commerce preliminarily determines that 70 respondents are eligible 
for separate rates in this review.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at 8-14, for more 
details.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rates for Eligible Non-Selected Respondents

    In accordance with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal 
Circuit's decision in Albemarle Corp. v. United States,\8\ we assigned 
to eligible non-selected respondents the separate rate we assigned to 
Jiangsu Senmao \9\ for the preliminary results of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Albemarle Corp. & Subsidiaries v. United States, 821 
F.3d 1345 (Fed. Cir. 2016).
    \9\ See Memorandum, ``Preliminary Results Margin Calculation for 
Jiangsu Senmao Bamboo and Wood Industry Co., Ltd.,'' dated 
concurrently with this notice (Preliminary Results Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

China-Wide Entity

    Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide 
entity applies to this administrative review.\10\ 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 
entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, 
the entity is not under review and the entity's rate is not subject to 
change. Aside from the no shipments companies discussed above, and the 
company for which the review is being rescinded, Commerce considers all 
other companies for which a review was requested and which did not 
preliminarily qualify for a separate rate, to be part of the China-wide 
entity.\11\ For additional information, see the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 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).
    \11\ See Initiation Notice (``All firms listed below that wish 
to qualify for separate rate status in the administrative reviews 
involving NME countries must complete, as appropriate, either a 
separate rate application or certification, as described below.'') 
Companies that are subject to this administrative review that are 
considered to be part of the China-wide entity are listed in 
Appendix II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 
751(a) (1) (B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). We 
calculated export price for Jiangsu Senmao in accordance with section 
772 of the Act. Because China is a NME within the meaning of section 
771(18) of the Act, we calculated NV in accordance with section 773(c) 
of the Act.
    For a full description of the methodology underlying our 
conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary 
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 in the Central Records 
Unit, Room B8024 of the main Commerce building. In addition, a complete 
version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly 
on the internet at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. The 
signed Preliminary Decision Memorandum and the electronic version of 
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content. A list of 
topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as 
Appendix I to this notice.

Preliminary Results of Review

    In this administrative review, we preliminarily calculated a 
weighted-average dumping margin for Jiangsu Senmao of zero.\12\ We 
assigned this rate to the companies subject to this review who 
established their eligibility for a separate rate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Preliminary Results Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Commerce preliminarily finds that Jinqiao Flooring did not 
establish eligibility for a separate rate, and is therefore considered 
to be part of the China-wide entity.\13\ Because no party requested a 
review of the China-wide entity, the entity is not under review, and 
the China-wide entity's rate of 25.62 percent from the investigation is 
not subject to change. For additional information regarding this 
determination, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum and ``Preliminary 
Separate Rate Analysis Memorandum for Jilin Forest Industry Jinqiao 
Flooring Group Co., Ltd.,'' dated concurrently with this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For companies subject to this review that have established their 
eligibility for a separate rate, Commerce preliminarily determines that 
the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period 
December 1, 2015, through November 30, 2016:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Weighted-
                                                              average
                        Exporters                         dumping margin
                                                             (percent)

Disclosure and Public Comment

    Commerce intends to disclose to the parties the calculations 
performed for these preliminary results within five days of the date of 
publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 
Interested parties may submit case briefs no later than 30 days after 
the date of publication of these preliminary results of review.\14\ 
Rebuttals to case briefs may be filed no later than five days after the 
written comments are filed, and all rebuttal comments must be limited 
to comments raised in the case briefs.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c).
    \15\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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

[[Page 2140]]

argument: (1) A statement of the issue; (2) a brief summary of the 
argument; and (3) a table of authorities.
    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 the U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230, 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.
    Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final 
results of this administrative review, which will include the results 
of our analysis of the issues raised in the case briefs, within 120 
days of publication of these preliminary results in the Federal 
Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and 
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered 
by this review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b). For the company 
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)(1)(i). Commerce 
intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions with respect to 
the companies for which this review is rescinded to CBP 15 days after 
the publication of this notice.
    For the remaining companies subject to review, and for which we do 
not make a final determination of no shipments, Commerce will direct 
CBP to assess rates based on the per-unit (i.e., per square meter) 
amount on each entry of the subject merchandise during the POR. For the 
respondents that were not selected for individual examination in this 
administrative review but qualified for a separate rate, the assessment 
rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin assigned to 
Jiangsu Senmao in the final results of this review.\16\ If Jiangsu 
Senmao's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimus (i.e., 
less than 0.5 percent), Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate the 
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Commerce 
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the 
publication date of the final results of review. For entries that were 
not reported in the U.S. sales databases submitted by the companies 
individually examined during this review, Commerce will instruct CBP to 
liquidate such entries at the China-wide rate. In addition, if we 
continue to find no shipments of subject merchandise for the 16 
companies that reported no such shipments during the POR,\17\ any 
suspended entries of subject merchandise from those companies will be 
liquidated at the China-wide rate.\18\

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 China 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 
listed above that have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be 
that rate established in the final results of this review (except, if 
the rate is de minimis, then a cash deposit rate of zero will be 
required); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-
Chinese 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 existing exporter-specific rate; (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, which is 25.62 percent; and (4) for all non-
China exporters of subject merchandise that have not received their own 
rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to China 
exporter(s) that supplied that non-China exporter. These cash 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) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties 
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. 
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.
    We are issuing and publishing these preliminary results of review 
in accordance with sections 751(a)(l) and 777(i)(l) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.221(b)(4).
