PART I.—GENERAL INFORMATION
Background.‐‐This proceeding was instituted in response to a petition filed on March 9, 2020, by The
Aluminum Association Common Alloy Aluminum Sheet Working Group and its Individual Members,
Aleris Rolled Products, Inc., Arconic, Inc., Constellium Rolled Products Ravenswood, LLC, JW Aluminum
Company, Novelis Corporation, and Texarkana Aluminum, Inc. Countervailing and antidumping duties
may be assessed on the subject imports as a result of these proceedings if the Commission makes an
affirmative determination of injury, threat, or material retardation, and if the U.S. Department of
Commerce (“Commerce”) makes an affirmative determination of subsidization and dumping.
Questionnaires and other information pertinent to this proceeding are available at
https://www.usitc.gov/investigations/701731/2020/common_alloy_aluminum_sheet_bahrain_brazil_cr
oatia/preliminary.htm
Common alloy aluminum sheet (“CAAS”).‐‐ The merchandise covered by these investigations is
common alloy aluminum sheet (“CAAS”), which is a flat‐rolled aluminum product having a thickness of
6.3 mm or less, but greater than 0.2 mm, in coils or cut‐to‐length, regardless of width. Common alloy
sheet within the scope of this order includes both not clad aluminum sheet, as well as multi‐alloy, clad
aluminum sheet. With respect to not clad aluminum sheet, common alloy sheet is manufactured from a
1XXX‐, 3XXX‐, or 5XXX‐series alloy as designated by the Aluminum Association. With respect to multi
alloy, clad aluminum sheet, common alloy sheet is produced from a 3XXX‐series core, to which cladding
layers are applied to either one or both sides of the core.
Common alloy sheet may be made to ASTM specification B209‐14, but can also be made to other
specifications. Regardless of specification, however, all common alloy sheet meeting the scope
description is included in the scope. Subject merchandise includes common alloy sheet that has been
further processed in a third country, including but not limited to annealing, tempering, painting,
varnishing, trimming, cutting, punching, and/or slitting, or any other processing that would not
otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the order if performed in the country of
manufacture of the common alloy sheet.
Excluded from the scope of this order is aluminum can stock, which is suitable for use in the
manufacture of aluminum beverage cans, lids of such cans, or tabs used to open such cans. Aluminum
can stock is produced to gauges that range from 0.200 mm to 0.292 mm, and has an H‐19, H‐41, H‐48, or
H‐391 temper. In addition, aluminum can stock has a lubricant applied to the flat surfaces of the can
stock to facilitate its movement through machines used in the manufacture of beverage cans. Aluminum
can stock is properly classified under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
subheadings 7606.12.3045 and 7606.12.3055.
Where the nominal and actual measurements vary, a product is within the scope if application of either
the nominal or actual measurement would place it within the scope based on the definitions set for the
above.
Common alloy sheet is currently classifiable under HTSUS subheadings 7606.11.3060, 7606.11.6000,
7606.12.3096, 7606.12.6000, 7606.91.3095, 7606.91.6095, 7606.92.3035, and 7606.92.6095. Further,
merchandise that falls within the scope of this order may also be entered into the United States under
HTSUS subheadings 7606.11.3030, 7606.12.3015, 7606.12.3025, 7606.12.3035, 7606.12.3091,
7606.91.3055, 7606.91.6055, 7606.92.3025, 7606.92.6055, 7607.11.9090. Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope
of this order is dispositive.

Aluminum can stock.‐‐Aluminum can stock is aluminum sheet or foil suitable for use in the manufacture
of aluminum beverage cans bodies (“body stock”), lids of such cans, or tabs (“lid stock”) used to open
such cans. Aluminum can stock, for the purposes of data gathered in this questionnaire, is limited to
gauges that range from 0.200 mm to 0.292 mm (i.e., thicknesses otherwise matching the in‐scope
thicknesses for CAAS). Most aluminum can stock is produced with an H‐19, H‐41, H‐48, or H‐391
temper. In addition, aluminum can stock may have a lubricant applied to its flat surfaces to facilitate its
movement through machines used in the manufacture of beverage cans. Aluminum can stock is properly
classified under HTSUS statistical reporting numbers 7606.12.3045 (body stock) and 7606.12.3055 (lid
stock).
Aluminum foil.‐‐Aluminum foil is defined as aluminum with a thickness of 0.2 mm or less.
Aluminum plate.‐‐Aluminum plate is defined as aluminum with a thickness of greater than 6.3 mm.
Importer.‐‐Any person or firm engaged, either directly or through a parent company or subsidiary, in
importing common alloy aluminum sheet (as defined above) into the United States from a foreign
manufacturer or through its selling agent.
Reporting of information.‐‐If information is not readily available from your records, provide carefully
prepared estimates. If your firm is completing more than one questionnaire (i.e., a producer, importer,
and/or purchaser questionnaire), you need not respond to duplicated questions.
Confidentiality.‐‐The commercial and financial data furnished in response to this questionnaire that
reveal the individual operations of your firm will be treated as confidential by the Commission to the
extent that such data are not otherwise available to the public and will not be disclosed except as may
be required by law (see 19 U.S.C. § 1677f). Such confidential information will not be published in a
manner that will reveal the individual operations of your firm; however, general characterizations of
numerical business proprietary information (such as discussion of trends) will be treated as confidential
business information only at the request of the submitter for good cause shown.
Verification.‐‐The information submitted in this questionnaire is subject to audit and verification by the
Commission. To facilitate possible verification of data, please keep all files, worksheets, and supporting
documents used in the preparation of the questionnaire response. Please also retain a copy of the final
document that you submit.
Release of information.‐‐The information provided by your firm in response to this questionnaire, as
well as any other business proprietary information submitted by your firm to the Commission in
connection with this proceeding, may become subject to, and released under, the administrative
protective order provisions of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. § 1677f) and section 207.7 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR § 207.7). This means that certain lawyers and
other authorized individuals may temporarily be given access to the information for use in connection
with this proceeding or other import‐injury proceedings conducted by the Commission on the same or
similar merchandise; those individuals would be subject to severe penalties if the information were
divulged to unauthorized individuals.
Valid number error messages.‐‐If you are completing this form in a country that uses periods (“.”) to
delineate multiples of 1000 (e.g., one million would appear as $1.000.000 rather than $1,000,000), you
may be unable to enter in numbers greater than 999 in numeric form fields. The solution to this data
entry issue is to temporarily change your operating system’s number formatting to be consistent with
the U.S. number formatting system while you complete this form. Detailed instructions on how to

resolve this issue is provided at the end of this questionnaire and is available upon request from Stamen
Borisson (202‐205‐3125, stamen.borisson@usitc.gov).
D‐GRIDS tool.‐‐The Commission has a tool that firms can use to move data from their own MS Excel
compilation files into self‐contained data tables within this MS Word questionnaire, thereby reducing
the amount of cell‐by‐cell data entry that would be required to complete this form. This tool is a macro‐
enabled MS Excel file available for download from the Commission's generic questionnaires webpage
(https://www.usitc.gov/trade_remedy/question.htm) called the "D‐GRIDs tool." Use of this tool to help
your firm complete this questionnaire is optional. Firms opting to use the D‐GRIDs tool to populate their
data into this questionnaire will need the D‐GRIDs specification sheet PDF file specific to this proceeding
(available on the case page which is linked under the "Background" above) which includes the necessary
references relating to this questionnaire, as well as the macro‐enable MS Excel D‐GRIDs tool itself from
the generic questionnaires page. More detailed instructions on how to use the D‐GRIDs tool are
available within the D‐GRIDs tool itself.

FTZ, TIB, or bonded warehouses.‐‐Please indicate whether your firm enters common alloy
aluminum sheet into, or withdraws such merchandise from, foreign trade zones or bonded
warehouses. Also indicate whether your firm imports common alloy aluminum sheet under the
TIB (temporary importation under bond) program.
“Foreign trade zone” is a designated location in the United States where firms utilize special
procedures that allow delayed or reduced customs duty payments on foreign merchandise, as
well as other savings. A foreign trade zone must be designated as such pursuant to the rules
and procedures set forth in the Foreign‐Trade Zones Act.
“Bonded warehouse” is a secured facility supervised by U.S. customs, where dutiable landed
imports are stored pending their re‐export, or release after payment of import duties, taxes, and
other charges. A bonded warehouse must be designed as such pursuant to the rules and
procedures set forth in 19 U.S.C. § 1555.
“Temporary Importation under Bond (“TIB”) program” is a procedure whereby imported
merchandise may be entered under certain conditions for a limited time into the United States
free of duty. Under the program, an importer posts a bond for twice the amount of duty, taxes,
etc. that would otherwise be owed on the importation and agrees to export or destroy the
merchandise within a specified time or pay liquidated damages. This program is restricted to
certain categories of merchandise listed in subheadings 9813.00.05 through 9813.00.75 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS).

Correcting Valid number error messages.‐‐If you are completing a Commission
questionnaire in a country that uses periods (“.”) to delineate multiples of 1000 (e.g., one million would
appear as $1.000.000 instead of as $1,000,000), you may be unable to enter in numbers greater than
999 in numeric form fields. This issues stem from your computer number formatting setting (e.g., not
the MS Word document itself, but the computer from which you are opening up the document). In the
United States commas (,) delineate multiples of 1000 and periods (.) delineate fractions less than one.
Many EU countries use the reverse where multiples of 1000 are delineated with periods (.) and
fractions less than one are delineated with commas (,). The U.S. International Trade Commission’s
questionnaires are set‐up in the United States with the U.S. number formatting. When this formatting
interacts with a computer set to EU number formatting, we believe this may cause this issue.
The solution to this data entry issue is to temporarily change your operating system’s number
formatting to be consistent with the U.S. number formatting system while you complete the
questionnaire.
To temporarily change your computer’s number settings to U.S. settings, please do the following (for
Microsoft Windows Operating system):
START
Control Panel
Region and Language (under Clock, Language, and Region category)
Format tab
Change the Format from your existing one (e.g. “Italian (Italy)”) to “English (United States)” (see
screen shots below)
When you do this the number “twelve million dollars and thirty five cents” would change from
$12.000.000,35 (Italy format) to $12,000,000.35 (U.S. format), and then there will be no conflict with
the questionnaire. When you finish reporting the data then you can close the questionnaire and switch
back to Italy settings.

Please do not attempt to modify the format or permissions of the questionnaire
document. Please submit the completed questionnaire using one of the methods noted
below. If your firm is unable to complete the MS Word questionnaire or cannot use one
of the electronic methods of submission, please contact the Commission for further
instructions.
• Upload via Secure Drop Box.—Upload the MS Word questionnaire along with a scanned copy of the
signed certification page (page 1) through the Commission’s secure upload facility:
Web address: https://dropbox.usitc.gov/oinv/

• E‐mail.—E‐mail the MS Word questionnaire to stamen.borisson@usitc.gov; include a scanned copy of
the signed certification page (page 1). Submitters are strongly encouraged to encrypt nonpublic
documents that are electronically transmitted to the Commission to protect your sensitive information
from unauthorized disclosure. The USITC secure drop‐box system and the Electronic Document
Information System (EDIS) use Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140‐2 cryptographic
algorithms to encrypt data in transit. Submitting your nonpublic documents by a means that does not
use these encryption algorithms (such as by email) may subject your firm’s nonpublic information to
unauthorized disclosure during transmission. If you choose a non‐encrypted method of electronic
transmission, the Commission warns you that the risk of such possible unauthorized disclosure is
assumed by you and not by the Commission.
If your firm did not import this product, please fill out page 1, print, sign, and submit a scanned copy to
the Commission.
