Final Determination of No Shipments
As explained above, in the
Preliminary Results, the Department
found that TMI/TMM did not have
reviewable entries during the POR.8
Also in the Preliminary Results, the
Department stated that that consistent
with its recently announced refinement
to its assessment practice in non-market
economy (‘‘NME’’) cases, it is
appropriate not to rescind the review in
part in this circumstance but, rather, to
complete the review with respect to
TMI/TMM and to issue appropriate
instructions to CBP based on the final
results of the review.9
After issuing the Preliminary Results,
the Department received no comments
from interested parties, nor has it
received any information that would
cause it to revisit its preliminary
determination. Therefore, for these final
results, the Department continues to
find that TMI/TMM did not have any
reviewable entries during the POR.
Assessment Rates
The Department determined, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review.10 The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
Results, 79 FR 10474.

date of publication of these final results
of review.
Additionally, consistent with the
Department’s refinement to its
assessment practice in NME cases,
because the Department determined that
TMI/TMM had no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR, any
suspended entries that entered under
TMI/TMM’s antidumping duty case
numbers (i.e., at those exporters’ rates)
will be liquidated at the PRC-wide
rate.11
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective for all
shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of this notice of final
results of the administrative review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act: (1) For TMI/TMM, which claimed
no shipments, the cash deposit rate will
remain unchanged from the rate
assigned to TMI/TMM in the most
recently completed review of the
company; (2) for previously investigated
or reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters
who are not under review in this
segment of the proceeding but who have
separate rates, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the exporter-specific rate
published for the most recent period; (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 PRC-wide rate
of 111.73 percent;12 and (4) for all nonPRC exporters of subject merchandise
which have not received their own rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate
applicable to the PRC exporter(s) that
supplied that non-PRC exporter. These
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification to Importers
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
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.

Disclosure and Public Comment
The Department intends to disclose to
interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with these
preliminary results within five days of
the date of publication of this notice.2
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c),
interested parties may submit case briefs
to the Department no later than seven
days after the date of the final
verification report issued in this
proceeding. Rebuttal briefs, the content
of which is limited to the issues raised
in the case briefs, may be filed within
five days from the deadline date for the
submission of case briefs.3 A list of
authorities used, a table of contents, and
an executive summary of issues should
accompany any briefs submitted to the
Department.4 Executive summaries
should be limited to five pages total,
including footnotes. Interested parties
who wish to comment on the
preliminary results must file briefs
electronically using IA ACCESS. An
electronically-filed document must be
received successfully in its entirety by
the Department’s electronic records
system, IA ACCESS, by 5 p.m. on the
date the document is due.
In accordance with section 774 of the
Act, the Department will hold a hearing,
if timely requested, to afford interested
parties an opportunity to comment on
arguments raised in case or rebuttal
briefs, provided that such a hearing is
requested by an interested party.5
Interested parties who wish to request a
hearing, or to participate if one is
requested, must submit a written
request to the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, U.S.
Department of Commerce, filed
electronically using IA ACCESS, as
noted above. Requests should contain
the following information: (1) The
party’s name, address, and telephone
number; (2) the number of participants;
and (3) a list of the issues to be

Parties should confirm by telephone the
date, time, and location of the hearing.
The Department intends to issue the
final results of this administrative
review, including the results of its
analysis of the issues raised in any
written briefs, not later than 120 days
after the date of publication of this
notice, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A)
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.8 If Acron’s or EuroChem’s
weighted-average dumping margins are
not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than
0.50 percent), we will calculate
importer-specific assessment rates based
on the ratio of the total amount of
dumping calculated for the importer’s
examined sales and the total entered
value of those sales in accordance with
19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). We will instruct
CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review when the importer-specific
assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is not zero or de
minimis. Where either of 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.

specific assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of
dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales and the total
entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review when the importer-specific assessment
rate calculated in the final results of this review is not zero or de
minimis. Where either of 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 clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on
May 6, 2003.\9\ This clarification will apply to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by Acron or EuroChem for which
these companies did not know that the merchandise was destined for the
United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all others rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.

and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping
Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).

We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of
the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of final results of administrative review for
all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates
for Acron and EuroChem will be equal to the weighted-average dumping
margins established in the final results of this administrative review,
except if the rate is less than 0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for merchandise exported by
manufacturers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a
prior segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to
be the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed
segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or
the original investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the most recently completed
segment for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to
be 253.98 percent, the all-others rate established in the order.\10\
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: May 16, 2014.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
