Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the

shall determine, and U.S. Customs and

antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review.7

entered value, we calculated importer4 See

specific or customer-specific per-unit
duty assessment rates by aggregating the
total amount of antidumping duties
calculated for the examined sales and
dividing this amount by the total
quantity of those sales. To determine
whether this duty assessment rate is de
minimis, in accordance with the
requirement set forth in 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we calculated an
importer-specific ad valorem ratio based
on the estimated entered value. We will
instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review when the importerspecific assessment rate calculated in
the final results of this review is above
de minimis. Where either the
respondent’s weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, or the
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.8
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective 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entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,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
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for Himalya will
be the rate established in the final
results of this review, except if the rate
is de minimis within the meaning of 19
CFR 351.106(c)(1) (i.e., less than 0.50
percent), in which case the cash deposit
rate will be zero; (2) for previously
reviewed or investigated companies not
participating in this review, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recent period; (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
most recent period for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 11.30
percent, the all-others rate established
in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.9 These requirements,

\4\ See 19 CFR 351.309.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), interested parties who wish to
request a hearing must submit a written request to the Assistant
Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce,
filed electronically via ACCESS. An electronically filed request must
be received successfully in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time, within 30 days after the date of publication of this
notice.\5\ Requests should contain: (1) The party's name, address, and
telephone number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of
issues to be discussed. If a request for a hearing is made, the
Department intends to hold the hearing at the U.S. Department of
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC
20230, at a time and date to be determined. Issues raised in the
hearing will be limited to those raised in the respective case and
rebuttal briefs. Parties should confirm by telephone the date, time,
and location of the hearing two days before the scheduled date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Department intends to issue the final results of this
administrative review, including the results of its analysis of issues
raised in any written briefs, not later than 120 days after the date of
publication of this notice, unless the deadline is extended.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ See section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the administrative review, the Department shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this
review.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because Himalya did not report entered value, we calculated
importer-specific or customer-specific per-unit duty assessment rates
by aggregating the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for
the examined sales and dividing this amount by the total quantity of
those sales. To determine whether this duty assessment rate is de
minimis, in accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we calculated an importer-specific ad valorem ratio
based on the estimated entered value. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review
when the importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is above de minimis. Where either the
respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or
the importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties.\8\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8103 (February 14,
2012); see also 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective 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 this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for Himalya will be
the rate established in the final results of this review, except if the
rate is de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) (i.e.,
less than 0.50 percent), in which case the cash deposit rate will be
zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not
participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (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 most recent period for the
manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 11.30 percent, the
all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.\9\ These requirements,
[[Page 12465]]
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Preserved
Mushrooms From India, 64 FR 8311 (February 19, 1999).

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 POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled 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 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: March 2, 2016.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
