instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at
the PRC-wide rate.20
The final results of this review shall
be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise covered by the final results
of this review and for future cash
deposits of estimated antidumping
duties, where applicable.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for shipments of
the subject merchandise from the PRC
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the
exporters identified above, the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed PRC
and non-PRC exporters not listed above
that received a separate rate in a
previously completed segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate published for the most
recent period; (3) for all PRC exporters
of subject merchandise that have not
been found to be entitled a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be that for the
PRC-wide entity (i.e., 60.85 percent);
and (4) for all non-PRC exporters of
subject merchandise which have not
received their own rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to the
PRC exporter that supplied that nonPRC exporter. These deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations
performed for these final results within
five days of the date of publication of
this notice in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b).
Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR.
Failure to comply with this requirement
could result in the Department’s
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping duties has occurred and
the subsequent assessment of doubled
antidumping duties.
Notifications to All Parties
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to parties subject to
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
of their responsibility concerning the
return or destruction of proprietary
information disclosed under APO in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3),
which continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and terms of an APO is a
violation which is subject to sanction.
We are issuing and publishing these
final results of administrative review
and notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213 and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).

Stainless Steel Bar From Brazil: Final

Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On March 1, 2017, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on stainless
steel bar (SSB) from Brazil. The period
of review (POR) is February 1, 2015,
through January 31, 2016. The review
covers one producer/exporter of the
subject merchandise, Villares Metals
S.A. (Villares). For the final results of
this review, we continue to find that
subject merchandise has not been sold
at less than normal value.
DATES: Effective June 16, 2017.

Background
On March 1, 2017, the Department
published the Preliminary Results of the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:12 Jun 15, 2017
Jkt 241001
administrative review in which it
determined that subject merchandise
has not been sold at less than fair
value.1 The Department stated its intent
to issue a supplemental questionnaire
after the Preliminary Results in light of
pre-preliminary comments from
Carpenter Technology Corporation,
Crucible Industries LLC, Electralloy, a
Division of G.O. Carlson, Inc., North
America Stainless, and Valbruna Slater
Stainless, Inc. (collectively, the
petitioners).2 On March 10, 2017, the
Department issued a supplemental
questionnaire to Villares regarding its
reporting of certain expense and
revenue items,3 and received a response
on April 3, 2017.4 No party commented
on Villares’ April 3, 2017, supplemental
questionnaire response. The Department
also gave interested parties an
opportunity to comment on the
Preliminary Results, but received no
comments. The Department conducted
this review in accordance with section
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order
is SSB. The term SSB with respect to the
order means articles of stainless steel in
straight lengths that have been either
hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn,
cold-rolled or otherwise cold-finished,
or ground, having a uniform solid cross
section along their whole length in the
shape of circles, segments of circles,
ovals, rectangles (including squares),
triangles, hexagons, octagons or other
convex polygons. SSB includes coldfinished SSBs that are turned or ground
in straight lengths, whether produced
from hot-rolled bar or from straightened
and cut rod or wire, and reinforcing bars
that have indentations, ribs, grooves, or
other deformations produced during the
rolling process. Except as specified
above, the term does not include
stainless steel semi-finished products,
cut-length flat-rolled products (i.e., cutlength rolled products which if less than
4.75 mm in thickness have a width
measuring at least 10 times the
thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in
thickness having a width which exceeds
150 mm and measures at least twice the

products in coils, of any uniform solid
cross section along their whole length,
which do not conform to the definition
of flat-rolled products), and angles,
shapes and sections. The SSB subject to
the order is currently classifiable under
subheadings 7222.10.00, 7222.11.00,
7222.19.00, 7222.20.00, 7222.30.00 of
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). Although the
HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of the
order is dispositive.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
After consideration of Villares’ April
3, 2017, supplemental questionnaire
response, the Department made minor
changes to its calculations announced in
the Preliminary Results.5 Specifically,
for the final results of this
administrative review, we used Villares’
revised sales databases that it submitted
to the Department in response to a
March 10, 2017, supplemental
questionnaire, which we issued after the
Preliminary Results.6
In addition, in our March 10, 2017,
supplemental questionnaire, we
requested that Villares ensure and
confirm that it reported gross unit prices
net of any expenses and that any
expenses (freight, insurance,
merchandise processing fee, harbor
maintenance fees, entry fee, etc.) were
properly reported in their corresponding
expense field.7 Villares provided the
Department a U.S. sales database in
Excel format with the appropriate
expense fields. We reviewed the
information provided by Villares and
determined that the freight amounts
reported constituted as freight revenue
and therefore, consistent with the
Department’s practice, it is appropriate
to treat freight revenue as offsets to
certain expenses.8 Accordingly, for the
final results, we capped Villares’ freight
