SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines that countervailable subsidies are being provided to producers and exporters of rubber bands from the People's Republic of China (China) for the period of investigation of January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2017. Interested parties are invited to comment on this preliminary determination. DATES: Applicable July 9, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kristen Johnson, AD/CVD Operations, Office III, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone (202) 482-4793. [[Page 31730]] SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background This preliminary determination is made in accordance with section 703(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). On February 20, 2018, we initiated a countervailing duty (CVD) investigation of rubber bands from China.\1\ On April 12, 2018, in accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act, we postponed the preliminary determination of this investigation to July 2, 2018.\2\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ See Rubber Bands from Thailand, the People's Republic of China, and Sri Lanka: Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigations, 83 FR 8429 (February 27, 2018) (Initiation Notice). \2\ See Rubber Bands from Thailand and the People's Republic of China: Postponement of Preliminary Determinations in the Countervailing Duty Investigations, 83 FR 15789 (April 12, 2018). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For a complete description of the events that followed the initiation of this investigation, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.\3\ A list of topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included in Appendix II of this notice. 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 http://access.trade.gov, and is available to all parties 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 at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed and electronic versions of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \3\ See Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Affirmative Determination in the Countervailing Duty Investigation of Rubber Bands from the People's Republic of China,'' dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the Investigation The products covered by this investigation are rubber bands from China. For a complete description of the scope of this investigation, see Appendix I. Methodology Commerce is conducting this investigation in accordance with section 701 of the Act. For each of the subsidy programs found countervailable, Commerce preliminarily determines that there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial contribution by an ``authority'' that confers a benefit to the recipient, and that the subsidy is specific.\4\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In making these findings, we relied solely on facts available because neither the Government of China nor any of the selected mandatory respondent companies responded to the questionnaire.\5\ Further, because these parties did not act to the best of their ability to respond to Commerce's requests for information, we drew an adverse inference in selecting from among the facts otherwise available.\6\ For further information, see Preliminary Decision Memorandum at ``Use of Facts Otherwise Available and Adverse Inferences.'' --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \5\ Because the respondents in this investigation did not provide information requested by Commerce, and Commerce preliminarily determines each of the respondents to be uncooperative, we will not conduct verification. \6\ See sections 776(a) and (b) of the Act. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alignment As noted in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, in accordance with section 705(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(4)(i), we are aligning the final CVD determination in this investigation with the final determination in the companion antidumping duty (AD) investigation of rubber bands based on a request made by the petitioner.\7\ Consequently, the final CVD determination will be issued on the same date as the final AD determination, which is currently scheduled to be issued no later than November 13, 2018, unless postponed.\8\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \7\ The petitioner in this investigation is Alliance Rubber Co. See Letter from the petitioner, ``Petition for the Imposition of Antidumping and Countervailing Duties on Rubber Bands from Thailand and China--Petitioner's Request for Postponement of the Preliminary Determinations,'' dated March 27, 2018. \8\ The AD preliminary determination was postponed to no later than August 29, 2018, see Rubber Bands from the People's Republic of China and Thailand: Postponement of Preliminary Determinations in the Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigations, 83 FR 29748 (June 26, 2018). Therefore, the AD final determination is currently due for signature no later than Monday, November 12, 2018, which is a federal holiday. Commerce's practice dictates that where a deadline falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the appropriate deadline is the next business day (see Notice of Clarification: Application of ``Next Business Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005). As such, the AD final determination signature date rolls to Tuesday, November 13, 2018. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- All-Others Rate Sections 703(d)(1)(A) and 705(c)(5)(A) of the Act provide that Commerce shall determine an estimated all-others rate for companies not individually examined. This rate shall be an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated subsidy rates established for those companies individually examined, excluding any zero and de minimis rates and any rates based entirely under section 776 of the Act.\9\ In this investigation, Commerce preliminarily assigned a rate based entirely on facts available to each of the mandatory respondents. There is no other information on the record with which to determine an all- others rate. As a result, in accordance with section 705(c)(5)(A)(ii) of the Act, we are using ``any reasonable method'' and have established the all-others rate by applying the countervailable subsidy rate assigned to the mandatory respondents. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \9\ See section 705(c)(5)(A)(i) of the Act. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preliminary Determination Commerce preliminarily determines that the following estimated countervailable subsidy rates exist: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subsidy rate Company (percent) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Graceful Imp. & Exp. Co., Ltd........................... 125.77 Moyoung Trading Co., Ltd................................ 125.77 Ningbo Syloon Imp & Exp Co., Ltd........................ 125.77 All-Others.............................................. 125.77 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Suspension of Liquidation In accordance with section 703(d)(2) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to suspend liquidation of entries of subject merchandise as described in the scope of the investigation entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. Further, pursuant to section 703(d)(1)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(d), Commerce will instruct CBP to require a cash deposit equal to the rates indicated above. Public Comment Interested parties may submit case and rebuttal briefs, as well as request a hearing. Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance via ACCESS no later than 30 days after the publication of the preliminary determination in the Federal Register.\10\ Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised in case briefs, may be submitted no later than five days [[Page 31731]] after the deadline date for case briefs.\11\ Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), parties who submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this investigation 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.\12\ This summary should be limited to five pages total, including footnotes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \10\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(i); see also 19 CFR 351.303 (for general filing requirements). \11\ See 19 CFR 351.309(d)(1). \12\ See 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 within 30 days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register via ACCESS.

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. Prior to the date of the hearing, Commerce will contact all parties that submitted case or rebuttal briefs to determine if they wish to participate in the hearing. Commerce will then provide a hearing schedule to the parties prior to the hearing and only those parties listed on the schedule may present issues raised in their briefs.

Electronically filed documents must be received successfully in their entirety by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time,\13\ on the due dates established above. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \13\ See 19 CFR 351.303(b)(1). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- International Trade Commission (ITC) Notification In accordance with section 703(f) of the Act, we will notify the ITC of its determination. In addition, Commerce will make available to the ITC all non-privileged and non-proprietary information relating to this investigation. Commerce will allow the ITC access to all privileged and business proprietary information in the files, provided the ITC confirms that it will not disclose such information, either publicly or under an APO, without the written consent of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
