Methodology
The Department has conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended ("the Act"). For a full description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Import Administration's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System ("IA ACCESS").

In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the internet at http://www.trade.gov/ia/ . The signed Preliminary Decision Memorandum and the electronic versions of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content.
Intent Not To Revoke Order in Part
We preliminarily find that Grobest has not satisfied the requirements of 19 CFR 351.222(b). Thus, under section 751 of the Act, we preliminarily determine not to revoke in part the order with respect to Grobest.

The Department has preliminarily determined that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists.
