(202)482-2670. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On July 14, 2022, Commerce published the notice of initiation of this administrative review of the countervailing duty order on aluminum extrusion from China. 1 For a complete description of the events that followed the initiation of this review, *see* the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 2 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 *https://access.trade.gov.* In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at *https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.* 1 *See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews,* 87 FR 42144 (July 14, 2022). 2 *See* Memorandum, “Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Results of the Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, Rescission of Review in Part, 2021: Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic of China,” dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum). Scope of the Order 3 3 *See Aluminum Extrusions from the People's Republic of China: Countervailing Duty Order,* 76 FR 30653 (May 26, 2011) ( *Order* ). The products covered by the *Order* are aluminum extrusions from China. For a complete description of the scope of the *Order, see* the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that requested a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation. The Aluminum Extrusions Fair Trade Committee (the petitioner) timely withdrew its request for review of 81 companies. 4 No other party requested a review of these companies. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding this administrative review of the *Order* with respect to these 81 companies. The complete list of the 81 companies for which Commerce is rescinding this administrative review is included in Appendix I of this notice. For additional information regarding this determination, *see* the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 4 *See* Petitioner's Letter, “Partial Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review,” dated September 23, 2022. Methodology Commerce is conducting this administrative review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For each of the subsidy programs found countervailable, we preliminarily find that there is a subsidy, *i.e.,* a financial contribution that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that the subsidy is specific. 5 5 *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 reaching these preliminary results, Commerce relied on facts otherwise available, with the application of adverse inferences, pursuant to section 776 of the Act. For further information, *see* “Use of Facts Otherwise Available and Application of Adverse Inferences” in the accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum. Preliminary Results of Review We preliminarily determine the following net countervailable subsidy rates for the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021: Producer/exporter Subsidy rate (percent) Guangdong Victor A 293.85 Hui Qian (Shanghai) International Trading Co., Ltd 293.85 Sichuan Hangxin New Glazing Material Co., Ltd 293.85 Assessment Rates Consistent with section 751(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection

(CBP)shall assess, countervailing duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. We intend to issue these instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the **Federal Register** . If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired ( *i.e.,* within 90 days of publication). For the companies for which we have rescinded this administrative review, we will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated countervailing duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, during the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this notice in the **Federal Register** . Cash Deposit Requirements In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce also intends to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts indicated for the producers/exporters listed above with regard to shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of this review. For all non-reviewed firms, CBP will continue to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the all-others rate or the most recent company-specific rate applicable to the company, as appropriate. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Public Comment Case briefs or other written comments may be submitted to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance no later than 30 days after the publication of these preliminary results of review in the **Federal Register** . 6 Rebuttal comments, limited to issues raised in case briefs, may be submitted no later than seven days after the deadline for filing case briefs. 7 Parties who submit case or rebuttal briefs in this administrative review 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. 8 Case and rebuttal briefs must be filed using ACCESS. 9 An electronically filed document must be received successfully in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Easter Time on the established deadline. Note that Commerce has temporarily modified certain of its requirements for serving documents containing business proprietary information, until further notice. 10 6 *See* 19 CFR 351.309(c). 7 *See* 19 CFR 351.309(d). 8 *See* 19 CFR 351.309(c)(2) and 351.309(d)(2). 9 *See* 19 CFR 351.303. 10 *See* 19 CFR 351.309; *see also* 19 CFR 351.303 (for general filing requirements); and *Temporary Rule Modifying AD/CVD Service Requirements Due to COVID-19; Extension of Effective Period,* 85 FR 41363 (July 10, 2020).

Unless the deadline is extended pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we intend to issue the final results of this administrative review, including the results of our analysis of the issues raised by interested parties in their case briefs, within 120 days after the issuance of these preliminary results of this administrative review.
