Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 178 / Tuesday, September 15, 2015 / Notices Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department determines, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review. For assessment purposes, because Bhansali’s weighted-average dumping margin remains zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent) in these final results, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties in accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). Our instructions will be on an importer-specific basis, where the importer is known, or on a customer-specific basis, where the importer is not known. The Department clarified its ‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on May 6, 2003. This clarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Bhansali 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 Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 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of the notice of final results of administrative review for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for Bhansali will be the rate established in the final results of this administrative review; (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 of this proceeding in which that manufacturer or exporter participated; (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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:04 Sep 14, 2015 Jkt 235001 55333 most recently completed segment of this proceeding for the manufacturer of subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 12.45 percent, the ‘‘all others’’ rate established in the order.4 These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and comments received from 
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we made revisions 
to CS Wind Group's margin calculations. These changes are discussed in 
the Issues and Decision Memorandum and CS Wind Group's analysis 
memorandum.

Final Results of the Review

    We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin 
exists for the period of review from February 13, 2013 through January

Assessment Rates

    The Department shall 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 pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``Act'') and 19 CFR 351.212(b). 
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.\6\ 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.\7\ For CS 
Wind Group, whose weighted average dumping margin is zero, the 
Department will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without 
regard to antidumping duties.\8\

    \8\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 24, 2011, the Department announced a refinement to its 
assessment practice in NME cases.\9\ Pursuant to this refinement in 
practice, for entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales 
databases submitted by the company individually examined during this 
review, the Department will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at 
the rate applicable to the Vietnam-wide entity (i.e., 58.54 percent). 
In addition, for companies for which the Department determined that the 
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 Vietnam-wide rate.

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

    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, the final 
results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment of 
antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final 
results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, 
where applicable.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of these final results of this administrative review for 
all shipments of the subject merchandise from Vietnam, entered or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication 
date, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the 
exporters listed above, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the 
weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of 
this review (except, if the rate is zero or de minimis, then a cash 
deposit rate of zero will be established for that company); (2) for 
previously investigated or reviewed Vietnam or non-Vietnam exporters 
not listed above that currently have a separate rate, the cash deposit 
rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the 
most the recently completed segment of this proceeding where the 
exporter received that separate rate; (3) for all Vietnam exporters of 
subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a 
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate for the Vietnam-
wide entity, 58.54 percent; and (4) for all non-Vietnam exporters of 
subject merchandise which have not received their own separate rate, 
the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Vietnam 
exporter that supplied that non-Vietnam exporter. These deposit 
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further 
notice.

Disclosure

    We intend to disclose the calculations performed regarding these

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) 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.

Administrative Protective Order (``APO'')

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
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 the final results of this review and 
notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 
19 CFR 351.213.

    Dated: September 8, 2015.
