Scope of the Order
The scope of the order consists of
shelving and racks for refrigerators,
freezers, combined refrigerator-freezers,
other refrigerating or freezing
equipment, cooking stoves, ranges, and
ovens (‘‘certain kitchen appliance
shelving and racks’’ or ‘‘the
merchandise under order’’). Certain
kitchen appliance shelving and racks
are defined as shelving, baskets, racks
(with or without extension slides, which
are carbon or stainless steel hardware
devices that are connected to shelving,
baskets, or racks to enable sliding), side
racks (which are welded wire support
structures for oven racks that attach to
the interior walls of an oven cavity that
does not include support ribs as a
design feature), and subframes (which
are welded wire support structures that
interface with formed support ribs
inside an oven cavity to support oven
rack assemblies utilizing extension
slides) with the following dimensions:
—shelving and racks with dimensions
ranging from 3 inches by 5 inches by
0.10 inch to 28 inches by 34 inches
by 6 inches; or
—baskets with dimensions ranging from
2 inches by 4 inches by 3 inches to
28 inches by 34 inches by 16 inches;
or
—side racks from 6 inches by 8 inches
by 0.1 inch to 16 inches by 30 inches
by 4 inches; or
—subframes from 6 inches by 10 inches
by 0.1 inch to 28 inches by 34 inches
by 6 inches.
The merchandise under the order is
comprised of carbon or stainless steel
wire ranging in thickness from 0.050
inch to 0.500 inch and may include
sheet metal of either carbon or stainless
steel ranging in thickness from 0.020
inch to 0.2 inch. The merchandise
under this order may be coated or
uncoated and may be formed and/or
welded. Excluded from the scope of this
order is shelving in which the support
surface is glass.
The merchandise subject to the order
is currently classifiable in the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) statistical
reporting numbers 8418.99.8050,
8418.99.8060, 7321.90.5000,
7321.90.6090, 8516.90.8000,
7321.90.6040, 8516.90.8010 and
8419.90.9520. Although the HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of the
order is dispositive.
PRC-Wide Entity
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an

administrative review, in whole or in
part, if a party that requested the review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the initiation
notice of the requested review. As noted
in the Preliminary Results, Petitioners
timely requested an administrative
review for Jiangsu Weixi Group, Co.
(‘‘Weixi’’), a company that previously
has not received a separate rate in
earlier segments of this proceeding.
Petitioners were the only parties to
request an administrative review of
Weixi, and timely withdrew their
request for review of Weixi.2
In the Preliminary Results, because
the PRC-wide entity remained
potentially under review for the final
results of this administrative review, the
Department did not rescind this review
for Weixi, because it was part of the
PRC-wide entity. The PRC-wide entity
did not come under review for these
final results. Therefore, for the final
results the Department is rescinding this
review with respect to Weixi, who
remains part of the PRC-wide entity.
Final Results of the Review
The Department has made no changes
to the Preliminary Results. As a result of
our review, we determine that the
following dumping margin exists for the
period September 1, 2011, through
August 31, 2012:

The Department will determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review. The Department intends
to issue assessment instructions to CBP
15 days after the publication date of
these final results of this review. In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
we are calculating importer- (or
customer-) specific assessment rates for
the merchandise subject to this review.
For any individually examined
respondent whose weighted-average

the Preliminary Results, the Department
found New King Shan affiliated with certain
entities and treated New King Shan and one
affiliated entity to be a single entity. Because we
have not made any changes to the Preliminary
Results, we will assign this rate to New King Shan
and its affiliated entity in this administrative
review. See Preliminary Results, and accompanying
Preliminary Decision Memorandum at pages 3–4.

dumping margin is above de minimis
(i.e., 0.50 percent), the Department will
calculate importer-specific 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.4 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 weightedaverage 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.5 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.
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 New King
Shan (Zhu Hai) Co., Ltd., the cash
deposit rate will be that established in
the final results of this review; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed PRC
and non-PRC exporters that received a
separate rate in a prior segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate; (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 that for the
PRC-wide entity; 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 non-PRC exporter. These
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notifications
This notice 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.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to the administrative
protective order (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely
notification of the destruction of APO
materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and the terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing these
results and this notice in accordance

Background
On September 3, 2013, the
Department of Commerce (Department)
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
countervailing duty (CVD) order on
certain new pneumatic off-the-road tires
(OTR Tires) from the People’s Republic
of China (PRC) covering the period
January 1, 2012 through December 31,
2013.1 The Department received a
timely request from Guizhou Tyre Co.
Ltd. (GTC) for a CVD administrative
review of itself.2 No other interested
party submitted a request for review. On
November 8, 2013, the Department
published a notice of initiation of an
administrative review of the CVD order
on OTR Tires from the PRC with respect
to GTC.3 On December 30, 2013, GTC
timely withdrew its request for a
review.4
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if a party that requested the review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of the notice of
initiation of the requested review. GTC
timely submitted a withdrawal request
within the 90-day period (i.e., before
February 6, 2014). Because the review
request filed by GTC was the only
request filed, we are rescinding this
administrative review of the CVD order
on OTR Tires from the PRC, consistent
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess CVDs on all appropriate entries.
GTC shall be assessed CVDs at rates
equal to the cash deposit of estimated
CVDs required at the time of entry, or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department has conducted this administrative review in
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(``the Act'').
Scope of the Order
The scope of the order consists of shelving and racks for
refrigerators, freezers, combined refrigerator-freezers, other
refrigerating or freezing equipment, cooking stoves, ranges, and ovens
(``certain kitchen appliance shelving and racks'' or ``the merchandise
under order''). Certain kitchen appliance shelving and racks are
defined as shelving, baskets, racks (with or without extension slides,
which are carbon or stainless steel hardware devices that are connected
to shelving, baskets, or racks to enable sliding), side racks (which
are welded wire support structures for oven racks that attach to the
interior walls of an oven cavity that does not include support ribs as
a design feature), and subframes (which are welded wire support
structures that interface with formed support ribs inside an oven
cavity to support oven rack assemblies utilizing extension slides) with
the following dimensions:
--shelving and racks with dimensions ranging from 3 inches by 5 inches
by 0.10 inch to 28 inches by 34 inches by 6 inches; or
--baskets with dimensions ranging from 2 inches by 4 inches by 3 inches
to 28 inches by 34 inches by 16 inches; or
--side racks from 6 inches by 8 inches by 0.1 inch to 16 inches by 30
inches by 4 inches; or
--subframes from 6 inches by 10 inches by 0.1 inch to 28 inches by 34
inches by 6 inches.
The merchandise under the order is comprised of carbon or stainless
steel wire ranging in thickness from 0.050 inch to 0.500 inch and may
include sheet metal of either carbon or stainless steel ranging in
thickness from 0.020 inch to 0.2 inch. The merchandise under this order
may be coated or uncoated and may be formed and/or welded. Excluded
from the scope of this order is shelving in which the support surface
is glass.
The merchandise subject to the order is currently classifiable in
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'')
statistical reporting numbers 8418.99.8050, 8418.99.8060, 7321.90.5000,
7321.90.6090, 8516.90.8000, 7321.90.6040, 8516.90.8010 and
8419.90.9520. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope
of the order is dispositive.
PRC-Wide Entity
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party that requested
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the initiation notice of the requested review. As noted
in the Preliminary Results, Petitioners timely requested an
administrative review for Jiangsu Weixi Group, Co. (``Weixi''), a
company that previously has not received a separate rate in earlier
segments of this proceeding. Petitioners were the only parties to
request an administrative review of Weixi, and timely withdrew their
request for review of Weixi.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Preliminary Results, 78 FR at 54450.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Preliminary Results, because the PRC-wide entity remained
potentially under review for the final results of this administrative
review, the Department did not rescind this review for Weixi, because
it was part of the PRC-wide entity. The PRC-wide entity did not come
under review for these final results. Therefore, for the final results
the Department is rescinding this review with respect to Weixi, who
remains part of the PRC-wide entity.
Final Results of the Review
The Department has made no changes to the Preliminary Results. As a
result of our review, we determine that the following dumping margin
exists for the period September 1, 2011, through August 31, 2012:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
Exporter average dumping
margin (%)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
New King Shan (Zhu Hai) Co., Ltd.\3\................... 0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment
The Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review. The Department intends to
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date
of these final results of this review. In accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), we are calculating importer- (or customer-) specific
assessment rates for the merchandise subject to this review. For any
individually examined respondent whose weighted-average
[[Page 3177]]
dumping margin is above de minimis (i.e., 0.50 percent), the Department
will calculate importer-specific 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.\4\ 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ In the Preliminary Results, the Department found New King
Shan affiliated with certain entities and treated New King Shan and
one affiliated entity to be a single entity. Because we have not
made any changes to the Preliminary Results, we will assign this
rate to New King Shan and its affiliated entity in this
administrative review. See Preliminary Results, and accompanying
Preliminary Decision Memorandum at pages 3-4.
\4\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Department announced a refinement to its assessment practice in
NME cases.\5\ 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.

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 New King Shan (Zhu
Hai) Co., Ltd., the cash deposit rate will be that established in the
final results of this review; (2) for previously investigated or
reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters that received a separate rate in a
prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue
to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (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 that for the PRC-wide
entity; 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 non-PRC
exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
