minimis (i.e., 0.50 percent), the
Department will calculate importerspecific assessment rates on the basis of
the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of
sales.36 We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review when the
importer-specific assessment rate is
above de minimis. Where either the
respondent’s weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, or an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
The Department announced a
refinement to its assessment practice in
NME cases. Pursuant to this refinement
in practice, for entries that were not
reported in the U.S. sales databases
submitted by companies individually
examined during this review, the
Department will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the NME-wide
rate. In addition, if the Department
determines that an exporter under
review had no shipments of the subject
merchandise, any suspended entries
that entered under that exporter’s case
number (i.e., at that exporter’s rate) will
be liquidated at the NME-wide rate. For
a full discussion of this practice, see
NME Antidumping Proceedings.
to the weighted-average dumping
margin for the PRC-wide entity
established in the final results of this
review; 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 exporters that
supplied that non-PRC exporter. These
cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for all 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entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,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 Jacobi,
Huahui and the non-examined, separate
rate respondents, the cash deposit rate
will be equal to their weighted-average
dumping margins established in the
final results of this review, except if the
rate is zero or de minimis, then no cash
deposit will be required; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed PRC
and non-PRC exporters not listed above
that have separate rates, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
exporter-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) for all PRC exporters of
subject merchandise that have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the equal
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
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 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.

Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations
performed within five days of the date
of publication of this notice to parties in
this proceeding 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 double
antidumping duties.

University of California, Berkeley,
Berkeley, CA 94720. Instrument: High
Speed Atomic Force Microscope
(HSAFM). Manufacturer: Research
Institute of Biomolecule Metrology
(RIBM), Japan. Intended Use: See notice
at 78 FR 7399–7400, February 1, 2013.
Comments: None received. Decision:
Approved. We know of no instruments
of equivalent scientific value to the
foreign instruments described below, for
such purposes as this is intended to be
used, that was being manufactured in
the United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used
for a number of experiments including
tracking the enzymatic activity of an
RNA II polymerase along its template, a
DNA gene, while synthesizing the
messenger RNA. Having access to higher
scan rates in an aqueous environment
will provide an unprecedented view of
transcription through nucleosomal
DNA. By visualizing transcription steps,
it is possible to precisely follow in real
time the dynamics of events that
accompany transcription by RNAP II
through the nucleosome including
spontaneous DNA unwrapping from the
core particle, histone transfer, and
histone dissociation under different
conditions while determining the main
factors that regulate nucleosome
stability/instability during transcription.
In addition to this capability, the
instrument will have the time and
spatial resolution to visualize individual
tubulin subunits as they arrive at the
microtubule end and will complement
cryo-EM studies at near nanometer
resolution on stabilized intermediates in
the assembly process. The unique
characteristics of this instrument are the
ability to capture images at a rate of up
to 15–20 frames per second, reading
scan rates as high as 25 frames per
second, resonant frequencies of 3.5 MHz
in air and 1.2 MHz in water, spring
constants of 0.2 N m¥1, a quality factor
in water of ∼2, and a response time in
water of ∼0.5 microseconds.

Transfer experiments over a range of
objective lens magnifications.
Furthermore, it is the only instrument
that can rapidly interchange custom
dichtroich mirrors, which is essential
for experiments relying on new
fluorescent proteins. Justification for
Duty-Free Entry: There are no
instruments of the same general
category manufactured in the United
States. Application accepted by

Docket Number: 13–043. Applicant:
University of Colorado at Boulder, 1111
Engineering Drive 428 UCB, ECOT 514,
University of Colorado at Boulder,
Boulder, CO 80309. Instrument: Cyclic
Triaxial Testing Device. Manufacturer:
Wille Geotechnik, Germany. Intended
Use: The instrument will be used to
study the response of soils under
monotonic static loading compared to
1–D and 2–D cyclic loading, evaluate
the influence of load amplitude and
frequency content on the response of
soils in terms of shear modulus and
damping versus strain, and evaluate the
influence of soil-content on its dynamic
properties. It is critical to have the
capability to simulate realistic static and
dynamic stress conditions to the soil
samples, which is facilitated by the
instrument. The key specification in the
research that was satisfied by the
instrument is the ability to apply cyclic
loading at high frequencies (up to about
30Hz) to simulate earthquake loading.
The instrument is also capable of testing
soil samples larger than 70mm, the
pressure system/pressure controller has
a resolution of 0.1 KPa which provides
greater accuracy, and the load frame
capacity for both static and dynamic
loading is 25 KN. Justification for DutyFree Entry: There are no instruments of
the same general category manufactured
in the United States. Application
accepted by Commissioner of Customs:
September 26, 2013.
