Initiation of Changed Circumstances Reviews Pursuant to section 751b1 of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.216d, Commerce will conduct a CCR of an AD or CVD
order when it receives information which shows changed circumstances sufficient to warrant such a review.
Section 782h2 of the Act and 19 CFR
351.222g1i provide that Commerce may revoke an order in whole or in part if it determines that producers accounting for substantially all of the production of the domestic like product have no further interest in the order, in whole or in part. In the event Commerce determines that expedited action is warranted, 19 CFR 351.221c3ii permits Commerce to combine the notices of initiation and preliminary results.

The petitioner asserts that it accounts for substantially all 7 of the domestic production of hardwood plywood.8 We are not combining this notice of initiation with a preliminary determination, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.222c3ii, to provide interested parties with an opportunity to address the issue of domestic industry support with respect to this requested partial revocation of the Orders. Additionally, we request that interested parties notify Commerce if they have made any shipments of merchandise covered by the revocation request door stiles and rails made of LVL that have a width not to exceed 50 millimeters, a thickness not to exceed 50 millimeters, and a length of less than 2,450 millimeters that a were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 23, 2017, and April 25, 2017, and b are subject to ongoing litigation and enjoined from liquidation. After examining comments, if any, concerning these issues, we will issue the preliminary results of these CCRs.
Based on the petitioners affirmative statement of no interest in the Orders with respect to certain finished LVL
door stiles and rails, and because more than 24 months have passed since the publication of the Final Determinations,9 we find that the conditions warrant initiation of these CCRs.10 According to the petitioner, certain specific LVL door stiles and rails are more appropriately considered wood mouldings and/or millwork products and should not be covered by the scope of the Orders. Instead, these products should be covered by the scope of the 7 In its administrative practice, Commerce has interpreted substantially all to mean at least 85
percent of the total production of the domestic like product covered by the order. See, e.g., Supercalendered Paper from Canada: Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review and Revocation of Countervailing Duty Order, 83 FR 32268 July 12, 2018.

10 See, e.g., Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Japan: Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent to Revoke Order in Part, 82 FR 821 January 4, 2017 finding that Petitioners affirmative statement of no interest in the order . . . . .
constitutes good cause for the conduct of this review.
