Companies That Did Not Demonstrate
Separate Rate Eligibility
In the Preliminary Results, the
Department determined that five
companies did not establish their
eligibility for separate rate status and,
thus, are part of the PRC-wide entity.3
In its comments on the Preliminary
Results, Petitioner states that the
Department correctly denied Hunan
Valin Xiangtan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd.
(‘‘Hunan Valin’’) separate rate status. In
these final results, we are continuing to
treat Hebei Iron, Hunan Valin, Jiangyin
Plastic, Jiangyin Steel, and Xiamen
Paper as part of the PRC-wide entity.
Because no party requested a review of
the PRC-wide entity, the entity is not
under review and the entity’s rate is not
subject to change.4
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, we
determined that Wuyang Iron & Steel
Co, Ltd. (‘‘Wuyang Iron’’) did not have
any reviewable transactions during the
POR.5 We did not receive any comments
concerning our finding of no shipments
by Wuyang Iron. In these final results,
we continue to determine that Wuyang
Iron had no reviewable transactions of
subject merchandise during the POR.

companies that did not establish their eligibility for

Jiangyin Xingcheng Special Steel Works Co., Ltd.

merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review. The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
publication date of these final results of
this review. The Department intends to
instruct CBP to liquidate any entries of
subject merchandise from Hebei Iron,
Hunan Valin; Jiangyin Plastic, Jiangyin
Steel, and Xiamen Paper, at 128.59
percent (the PRC-wide rate).
Additionally, pursuant to the
Department’s practice, because we
determined that Wuyang Iron had no
shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR, we intend to instruct
CBP to liquidate any suspended entries
of subject merchandise from Wuyang
Iron at the PRC-wide rate.6
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for all shipments
of the subject merchandise entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date of the final results of review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act: (1) For previously investigated or
reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters
which are not under review in this
segment of the proceeding but which
have separate rates, the cash deposit rate
will continue to be the exporter-specific
rate published for the most recent
period; (2) for all PRC exporters of
subject merchandise that have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate,
including Hebei Iron; Hunan Valin;
Jiangyin Plastic; Jiangyin Steel; and
Xiamen Paper, the cash deposit rate will
be the PRC-wide rate of 128.59 percent;
and (3) 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(s) that supplied that nonPRC exporter. These deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Department’s presumption that

Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the 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/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.
These final results of review are
issued and published in accordance
with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.213.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 3, 2015, the Department
initiated a sunset review of the CVD
Order 1 on ribbons from the PRC
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).2 On
August 14, 2015, the Department
received a notice of intent to participate
in the review on behalf of Berwick
Offray LLC and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Lion Ribbon Company, LLC
(collectively, Berwick Offray) within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i). Berwick Offray claimed
interested party status under section
771(9)(C) of the Act, as domestic
producers of the domestic like product.
The Department received adequate
substantive responses from the domestic
industry within the 30-day deadline
specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).
The Department did not receive a
substantive response from the
Government of the PRC or any
respondent interested party to the
proceeding. Because the Department
received no response from the
respondent interested parties, the
Department conducted an expedited
review of this CVD Order, pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(l)(ii)(B)(2) and (C)(2).
