PET film, whether extruded or coextruded. Excluded are metallized films
and other finished films that have had
at least one of their surfaces modified by
the application of a performanceenhancing resinous or inorganic layer
more than 0.00001 inches thick. Also
excluded is roller transport cleaning
film which has at least one of its
surfaces modified by application of 0.5
micrometers of SBR latex. Tracing and
drafting film is also excluded. PET film
is classifiable under subheading
3920.62.00.90 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
While HTSUS subheadings are provided
for convenience and customs purposes,
our written description of the scope of
the order is dispositive.
Determination of No Shipments
As noted in the Preliminary Results,
we received a no-shipment claim from
Terphane, and we confirmed this claim
with U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP). Because no party
commented on our preliminary results,
we continue to find that the record
indicates that Terphane did not export
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR and that it had no
reviewable transactions during the POR.
Assessment
Pursuant to 19 CFR 356.8(a), the
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of these final results
of review. On May 6, 2003, the
Department clarified its ‘‘automatic
assessment’’ regulation.3 This
clarification will apply to entries of
subject merchandise during the POR for
which the reviewed company 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 any entries by
Terphane, we will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties in accordance with
the reseller policy.
Cash Deposit Requirements
As this order has been revoked in full,
and the suspension of liquidation of
entries of PET film from Brazil has been
lifted, we do not intend to issue cash
deposit instructions.4

Notifications
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
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping
duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APOs) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305, 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 the terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended.
Dated: December 9, 2015.
