SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 11, 2018, based on requests from interested parties, 
Commerce initiated the administrative review on monosodium glutamate 
(MSG) from the Republic of Indonesia (Indonesia) covering Miwon and CJ 
Indonesia.\1\ A detailed description of the events that followed the 
initiation of this review can be found in the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum.\2\ This administrative review is being conducted in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 83 FR 1329 (January 11, 2018) (Initiation 
Notice).
    \2\ See Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary 
Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Monosodium 
Glutamate from the Republic of Indonesia; 2016-2017,'' (Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum), which is dated concurrently with, and hereby 
adopted by, this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by this review is MSG from Indonesia. A 
complete description of the scope of the order can be found in the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Partial Rescission of Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the 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. The 
notice initiating the instant administrative review was published on 
January 11, 2018. On April 4, 2018, Daesang America, Inc. (Daesang), a 
U.S. importer of MSG from Indonesia, timely withdrew its request for an 
administrative review with respect to Miwon.\3\ Because Daesang timely 
withdrew its request for an administrative review of Miwon within 90 
days of the date of publication of the Initiation Notice, and as there 
are no remaining requests to review Miwon, Commerce is rescinding this 
review with respect to Miwon, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Letter from Daesang, ``Monosodium Glutamate from 
Indonesia: Requesting Rescission of Administrative Review--PT. 
Miwon, Indonesia,'' dated April 4, 2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this administrative review in accordance 
with sections 751(a)(1)(B) and (2) of the Act. Export price and 
constructed export price are calculated in accordance with section 772 
of the Act. Normal value is calculated in accordance with section 773 
of the Act. A full description of the methodology underlying these 
preliminary results can be found in the Preliminary Determination 
Memorandum. A list of the topics included in the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum is included as an appendix to 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 Duty Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is 
available to registered users at http://access.trade.gov, and to all 
parties in the Central Records Unit, room B8024 of the main Department 
of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. The signed Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum and its electronic version are identical in content.

Preliminary Results of Review

    Commerce preliminarily determines that a weighted-average margin of 
24.68 percent exists for CJ Indonesia for the period November 1, 2016, 
through October 31, 2017.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results of this administrative review, 
Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by 
this review.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If the weighted-average dumping margin for CJ Indonesia is not zero 
or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will calculate 
importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates based on 
the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's 
examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). We will instruct CBP to assess 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review 
when the importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final 
results of this review is above de minimis (i.e., 0.5 percent). If the 
respondent's (i.e., CJ Indonesia's) weighted-average dumping margin is 
zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or 
de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries 
without regard to antidumping duties. The final results of this review 
shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries 
of merchandise covered by the final results of this review where 
applicable.
    In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice, 
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by CJ 
Indonesia for which the producer did not know that its merchandise was 
destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate 
entries not reviewed at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the

[[Page 63627]]

intermediate company (or companies) involved in the transaction.\5\ We 
intend to issue appropriate instructions to CBP 15 days after the date 
of publication of the final results of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the company for which this review is rescinded (i.e., Miwon), 
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, during the period in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue 
appropriate assessment instructions with respect to the company for 
which this review is being rescinded to CBP 15 days after the 
publication of this notice.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective 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 this administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for CJ Indonesia 
will be the rate established in the final results of this review, 
except if the rate is less than 0.5 percent and, therefore, de minimis 
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash 
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated 
companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent 
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a 
prior review, or the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the 
manufacturer is covered in this review, the cash deposit rate will be 
the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of 
the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 
manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 6.19 percent, the all-
others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\6\ These deposit 
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further 
notice.

30 days of publication of these preliminary results by submitting a 
written request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and 
Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, using Enforcement and 
Compliance's ACCESS system.\10\ Hearing requests should contain the

for a hearing is made, we will inform parties of the scheduled date for 
the hearing, which will be held at the U.S. Department of Commerce,

hearing will be limited to those raised in the briefs.\12\ All briefs 
and hearing requests must be filed electronically and received 
successfully in their entirety through ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time 
by their respective deadlines.

Notification to Importers

    This notice 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 the Secretary's 
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or 
countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.
    We are issuing and publishing these preliminary results in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: December 3, 2018.
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.
