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

摘要

The Department of Commerce ("Department") is hereby refining its practice with respect to the methodology for respondent selection in certain antidumping ("AD") proceedings. Specifically, the Department is making changes to its current practice in antidumping administrative reviews for (1) respondent selection; and (2) conditional review of the NME entity. Normally, the Department makes these types of changes to its practice in the context of its case proceedings, on a case-by-case basis.\1\ For these particular changes in practice, the Department sought comments in advance of making changes in practice. However, the Department expects to continue to consider, and make changes in practice, as necessary, in the context of its proceedings based upon comments from interested parties submitted in the course of such proceedings.\2\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
