Scope of the measure

The products covered by this order are SAP from Korea. For a complete description of the scope of this order, see the appendix to this notice. Antidumping Duty Order On December 8, 2022, in accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination in this investigation, in which it found that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of LTFV imports of SAP from Korea. Therefore, in accordance with section 735(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce is issuing this antidumping duty order. Because the ITC determined that imports of SAP from Korea are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from Korea, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. Id. As a result of the ITC's final affirmative determination, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price or constructed export price of the merchandise, for all relevant entries of SAP from Korea. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of SAP from Korea entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 7, 2022, the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination, but will not include entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of the ITC's final injury determination, as further described below. See Certain Superabsorbent Polymers from the Republic of Korea: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional Measures, 87 FR 34647 (June 7, 2022) (Preliminary Determination). Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation Except as noted in the ``Provisional Measures'' section of this notice, in accordance with section 736 of the Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation of all relevant entries of SAP from Korea, as described in the Appendix to this notice, which are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the ITC's notice of final determination in the Federal Register. These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce will also instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins included in the table below. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication in the Federal Register of the notice of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit Customs duties on subject merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins listed in the tables below. The all-others rate applies to all producers or exporters not specifically listed. Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping Margins The estimated weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: Estimated weighted- average Exporter/Producer dumping margin (percent) LG Chem, Ltd 17.64 All Others 17.64 Provisional Measures Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in effect for more than four months, except that Commerce may extend the four-month period to no more than six months at the request of exporters representing a significant portion of exports of the subject merchandise. At the request of an exporter that accounts for a significant proportion of SAP from Korea, Commerce extended the four- month period to six months in the Preliminary Determination, published on June 7, 2022. Therefore, the extended provisional measures period, beginning on the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination, ended on December 3, 2022. Pursuant to section 737(b) of the Act, the collection of cash deposits at the rates listed above will begin on the date of publication of the ITC's final injury determination. See Preliminary Determination. Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act and our practice, we will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without regard to antidumping duties, unliquidated entries of SAP from Korea, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after December 4, 2022, the first day provisional measures were no longer in effect, until and through the day preceding the date of publication of the ITC's final injury determination in the Federal Register. Establishment of the Annual Inquiry Service Lists On September 20, 2021, Commerce published the final rule titled ``Regulations to Improve Administration and Enforcement of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Laws'' in the Federal Register. On September 27, 2021, Commerce also published the notice titled ``Scope Ruling Application; Annual Inquiry Service List; and Informational Sessions'' in the Federal Register.
