Methodology
The Department conducted this
review in accordance with section
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). Export price is
calculated in accordance with section
772 of the Act. Normal value is
calculated in accordance with section
773 of the Act. For a full description of
the methodology underlying our
conclusions, see Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Facts Available
For the preliminary results, we have
relied, in part, on facts available.
Because we lack necessary Dubai Wire

it is appropriate to apply ‘‘facts

776(a)(2)(B) of the Act. We further
determine that an adverse inference is

notice of final results of administrative
review for all shipments of nails from
the UAE entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the date of publication as provided by
section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash
deposit rate for Dubai Wire and
Precision will be the rate established in
the final results of this administrative
review; (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for
the most recently completed segment of
this proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not
a firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the original investigation but
the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the
manufacturer of the merchandise for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (4) the cash deposit rate for
all other manufacturers or exporters will
continue to be 4.30 percent.7 These cash
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary
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
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.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.213(h)(1).

the antidumping duty order on diamond
sawblades from the PRC.1 We received

The merchandise subject to the order
is diamond sawblades. The diamond
sawblades subject to the order are
currently classifiable under subheadings
8202 to 8206 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS),
and may also enter under 6804.21.00.
The HTSUS subheadings are provided
for convenience and customs purposes.

Based on our analysis of comments
received, we made revisions that have
changed the results for certain
companies, including the valuation of
certain factors of production.
Additionally, we made calculation
programming changes for the final
results. For further details on the
changes we made for these final results,

preliminarily find that Dubai Wire and Precision sold subject
merchandise at less than normal value in the United States during the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the Order \1\ is certain steel nails
from the UAE. The products are currently classifiable under the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings
7317.00.55, 7317.00.65, and 7317.00.75. Although the HTSUS numbers are

Methodology
The Department conducted this review in accordance with section
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Export price
is calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. Normal value
is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Facts Available
For the preliminary results, we have relied, in part, on facts
available. Because we lack necessary Dubai Wire sales and cost data, we
determine that it is appropriate to apply ``facts otherwise available''
pursuant to section 776(a)(2)(B) of the Act. We further determine that
an adverse inference is not warranted in accordance with
[[Page 35722]]
section 776(b) of the Act because, pursuant to section 782(e) of the
Act, Dubai Wire acted to the best of its ability to comply with our
requests for information and we have sufficient sales and cost
information on the record to calculate a margin for Dubai Wire. Because
Precision did not act to the best of its ability to respond to the
Department's request for information, we have drawn an adverse
inference in selecting from among the facts otherwise available,
pursuant to 776(a) and (b) of the Act. For a full description of the
methodology underlying our conclusions, see Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Preliminary Results of Review
As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine that the
following weighted-average dumping margins on certain steel nails from
the UAE exist for the period November 3, 2011, through April 30, 2013
at the following rates:

later than 120 days after the date of publication of this notice,
pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Assessment Rates
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. If we
continue to rely on adverse facts available to establish Precision's
weighted-average dumping margin, we will instruct CBP to apply an ad
valorem assessment rate of 184.41 percent to all entries of subject
merchandise during the POR which were produced and/or exported by
Precision. If Dubai Wire's weighted-average dumping margin is not zero
or de minimis in the final results of this review, we will calculate
importer-specific ad valorem assessment rates on the basis of the ratio
of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for an importer's
examined sales and the total entered value of such sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If Dubai Wire's weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis in the final results of review, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties in accordance with the Final Modification for
Reviews, i.e., ``{w{time} here the weighted-average margin of dumping
for the exporter is determined to be zero or de minimis, no antidumping
duties will be assessed.'' \5\ We will instruct CBP to take into
account the ``provisional measures cap'' in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(d).

The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on
May 6, 2003.\6\ This clarification will apply to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by Dubai Wire for which it did not
know its 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) (Assessment Policy Notice).

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 nails from the UAE entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as
provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for
Dubai Wire and Precision will be the rate established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most
recently completed segment of this proceeding; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original
investigation but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate established for the manufacturer of the merchandise for the
most recently completed segment of this proceeding; (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to
be 4.30 percent.\7\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary 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 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.
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
