SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On June 25, 2014, the Department published in the Federal Register the Preliminary Results. We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. On July 25, 2014, the Department received case briefs from ASB and the Petitioners.2 On July 31, 2014, ASB submitted a request for an extension of time to submit its rebuttal brief.3 On August 4, 2014, ASB submitted its rebuttal brief. However, on August 5, 2014, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.302(c) (2012), the Department found ASB’s July 31, 2014, extension request untimely, and thus denied ASB’s request for an extension of time to submit a rebuttal brief.4 Consequently, on the same day, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.104(a)(2)(iii) and 19 CFR 351.302(d), the Department rejected and removed ASB’s untimely filed rebuttal brief from the record.5 In response, on August 5, 2014, ASB urged the Department to reconsider its decision.6 In the event that the Department chose not to allow the submission of ASB’s rebuttal brief, ASB urged for Petitioners’ case brief to be rejected and removed from the record since Petitioners failed to properly serve ASB with its case brief on July 25, 2014.7 On August 8 and 13, 2014, ASB reiterated its request to strike Petitioners’ case brief.8 In their letters, dated August 7, 12, and 14, 2014, Petitioners stated that they properly served ASB with their case brief, and therefore, there was no basis to reject it.9 On August 15, 2014, the Department rejected ASB’s multiple requests to strike Petitioners’ case and refused to 2 Petitioners are Allegheny Ludlum Corporation, North American Stainless, United Auto Workers Local 3303, Zanesville Armco Independent Organization, and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union (AFL–CIO/CLC). 3 See ASB’s letter dated July 31, 2014. 4 See the Department’s Letter to ASB dated August 5, 2014, Re: Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Stainless Steel Plate from Coils from Belgium. 5 See the Department’s Letter dated August 5, 2014, Re: Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from Belgium. 6 See ASB’s letter dated August 5, 2014. 7 See id. at 3. 8 See ASB’s letters dated August 8 and 13, 2014. 9 See Petitioners’ letters dated August 7, 12, and 14, 2014.

The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date of the final results of this review. Since the weighted-average dumping margin is above de minimis, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer’s examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).

Where either a respondent’s weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. The Department clarified its ‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on May 6, 2003.13 This clarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the respondent 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.

Cash Deposit Requirements The following antidumping duty deposit rates will be effective upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for all shipments of steel plate from Belgium entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of these final results, as provided for by section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) For ASB, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the final results of this review; (2) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, but was covered in a previous review or the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate established for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the subject merchandise; and (4) if neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered by this review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, the cash deposit rate will be 8.54 percent ad valorem, the ‘‘allothers’’ rate established in the LTFV investigation.14 These deposit rates, 13 See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003) (Assessment Policy Notice). 14 See Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from Belgium, 64 FR 15476 (March 31, 1999), as amended by Implementation of the Findings of the WTO Panel in U.S.—Zeroing (EC): Notice of Determinations Under Section 129 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act and Revocations and Partial Revocations of Certain Antidumping Duty Orders, 72 FR 25261 (May 4, 2007).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 25, 2014, the Department published in the Federal Register 
the Preliminary Results.
    We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary 
Results. On July 25, 2014, the Department received case briefs from ASB 
and the Petitioners.\2\ On July 31, 2014, ASB submitted a request for 
an extension of time to submit its rebuttal brief.\3\ On August 4, 
2014, ASB submitted its rebuttal brief. However, on August 5, 2014, 
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.302(c) (2012), the Department found ASB's July 
31, 2014, extension request untimely, and thus denied ASB's request for 
an extension of time to submit a rebuttal brief.\4\ Consequently, on 
the same day, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.104(a)(2)(iii) and 19 CFR 
351.302(d), the Department rejected and removed ASB's untimely filed 
rebuttal brief from the record.\5\ In response, on August 5, 2014, ASB 
urged the Department to reconsider its decision.\6\ In the event that 
the Department chose not to allow the submission of ASB's rebuttal 
brief, ASB urged for Petitioners' case brief to be rejected and removed 
from the record since Petitioners failed to properly serve ASB with its 
case brief on July 25, 2014.\7\ On August 8 and 13, 2014, ASB 
reiterated its request to strike Petitioners' case brief.\8\ In their 
letters, dated August 7, 12, and 14, 2014, Petitioners stated that they 
properly served ASB with their case brief, and therefore, there was no 
basis to reject it.\9\ On August 15, 2014, the Department rejected 
ASB's multiple requests to strike Petitioners' case and refused to 
reconsider its decision to reject ASB's rebuttal brief.\10\

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on our analysis of the comments received, we made certain 
changes to the margin calculations for ASB, which we discuss in the 
Issues and Decision Memorandum and Final Calculation Memorandum.\12\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    As a result of our review, we determined that the following 
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2012, 
through April 30, 2013:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                            Weighted-

Aperam Stainless Belgium N.V...........................            1.47
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act), the Department shall 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 publication date of the final 
results of this review. Since the weighted-average dumping margin is 
above de minimis, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty 
assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping 
calculated for the importer's examined sales to the total entered value 
of those same 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 since the importer-specific assessment rate 
calculated in the final results of this review is above de minimis 
(i.e., 0.50 percent). Where either a respondent's weighted-average 
dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific 
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we instruct CBP to liquidate the 
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003.\13\ This clarification will apply to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by the respondent 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. For a full discussion of this 
clarification, see Assessment Policy Notice.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following antidumping duty deposit rates will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this administrative review for all 
shipments of steel plate from Belgium entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of these 
final results, as provided for by section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) For 
ASB, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the final 
results of this review; (2) if the exporter is not a firm covered in 
this review, but was covered in a previous review or the original less-
than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the company-specific rate established for the most 
recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this 
review, a prior review, or the LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer 
is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most

responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
