Final Results of New Shipper Review
As a result of our review, we
determine that the following weightedaverage dumping margin exists for
Golden Dragon for the period November
22, 2010, through April 30, 2011:
Manufacturer/exporter
Weighted-average

Assessment Rate
The Department will determine,and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries. The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of the final results of
review.
Golden Dragon’s weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis in
the final results of this review, and,
therefore we have calculated importerspecific (or customer-specific) ad
valorem antidumping duty assessment
rates. Where the assessment rate is
above de minimis, we will instruct CBP
to assess duties on all entries of subject
merchandise by that importer.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
new shipper review for all shipments of
the subject merchandise by Golden
Dragon entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after

manufactured by Golden Dragon but
exported by any party other than Golden
Dragon, the cash deposit rate will be the
all others rate. These requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Further, effective upon publication of
the final results, we intend to instruct
CBP that importers may no longer post
a bond or other security in lieu of a cash
deposit on imports of seamless refined
copper pipe and tube from Mexico,
manufactured and exported by Golden
Dragon. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notifications to Interested Parties
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
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.
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.305(a)(3), this notice also serves as
a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
of their responsibility concerning the
return or destruction of proprietary
information disclosed under the APO,
which continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return/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
subject to sanction.
We are issuing and publishing this
new shipper review and notice in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i) of the Act.

purpose is to evaluate structural and
non-structural means of restoring
diminished ecosystem functions and
services within the lower reach of
Ballona Creek including coastal
wetlands. Santa Monica Bay Restoration
Commission (SMBRC) is the local
sponsor for the cost-shared study.

within its Civil Works program.
Although SMBRC requested the Corps
terminate the feasibility study, SMBRC,
acting on behalf of the California
Department of Fish and Game, is
moving forward with plans for
ecosystem restoration within Ballona
Creek. SMBRC must obtain permissions
from the Corps to proceed with
implementation of its restoration
proposals. Therefore, the Corps is
initiating an EIS pursuant to its
authorities under Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act, Section 10 of the 1899
Rivers and Harbors Act, and Title 33,
U.S. Code, Section 408 for a project to
be planned and carried out by SMBRC.
To that end, the Corps published a
Notice of Intent to Prepare an EIS in the
Federal Register on July 25, 2012 (77 FR

ACCESS). IA ACCESS is available to registered users at https://iaaccess.trade.gov and in the Central Records Unit (``CRU''), room 7046
of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete
version of the Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the
internet at https://www.trade.gov/ia/. The signed Decision Memorandum
and the electronic versions of the Decision Memorandum are identical in
content.
Based on a review of the record and comments received from
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we have made
changes to the margin calculation for Golden Dragon. See the Decision
Memorandum for a complete explanation of the Department's decision.
Final Results of New Shipper Review
As a result of our review, we determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margin exists for Golden Dragon for the period
November 22, 2010, through April 30, 2011:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-average
Manufacturer/exporter dumping margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Golden Dragon \5\................................... 5.53
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rate
The Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. The Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of the final
results of review.
Golden Dragon's weighted-average dumping margin is above de minimis
in the final results of this review, and, therefore we have calculated
importer-specific (or customer-specific) ad valorem antidumping duty
assessment rates. Where the assessment rate is above de minimis, we
will instruct CBP to assess duties on all entries of subject
merchandise by that importer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ Golden Dragon includes GD Affiliates S. de R.L. de C.V.

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this new shipper review for all
shipments of the subject merchandise by Golden Dragon entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication
date of these final results, consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act: (1) For subject merchandise manufactured and exported by
Golden Dragon, the cash
[[Page 59180]]
deposit rate will be 5.53 percent; (2) for subject merchandise exported
by Golden Dragon but not manufactured by Golden Dragon, the cash
deposit rate will be the all others rate (i.e., 26.03 percent); (3) for
subject merchandise manufactured by Golden Dragon but exported by any
party other than Golden Dragon, the cash deposit rate will be the all
others rate. These requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Further, effective upon publication of the final results, we intend
to instruct CBP that importers may no longer post a bond or other
security in lieu of a cash deposit on imports of seamless refined
copper pipe and tube from Mexico, manufactured and exported by Golden
Dragon. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Notifications to Interested Parties
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.
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), this notice also serves as
a reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order
(``APO'') of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction
of proprietary information disclosed under the APO, which continues to
govern business proprietary information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/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 subject to sanction.
We are issuing and publishing this new shipper review and notice in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.
Dated: September 20, 2012.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
