Polyvinyl Alcohol from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

Résumé

The Department of Commerce ("the Department") is conducting the first administrative review of the antidumping duty order on polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA") from the People's Republic of China ("PRC") covering the period August 11, 2003, through September 30, 2004. We have preliminarily determined that sales have been made below normal value. If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") to assess antidumping duties on entries of subject merchandise during the period of review ("POR") for which the importer-specific assessment rates are above de minimis. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. We will issue the final results no later than 120 days from the date of publication of this notice.
