751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act: (1) The cash
deposit rate for the reviewed company
will be the rate shown above; (2) for

Liquidation
The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we have calculated
importer-specific assessment rates. To calculate these rates, we

CBP to assess the appropriate assessment rate against the entered
Customs values for the subject merchandise on each of the importer's
entries under the relevant order during the POR.

responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping or countervailing duties prior to
