Amendment to Rates for Non-Selected Companies Under Review In light of the above corrections, for the 38 companies for which a review was requested and not rescinded, but were not selected as mandatory respondents, we have recalculated the net subsidy rate which is based on the overall subsidy rates calculated for the mandatory respondents of this review.11 We have also recalculated the net subsidy rate assigned to those companies for which we applied AFA in the Final Results because the AFA rate includes the individual subsidy rates determined for the glass for LTAR and aluminum extrusions for LTAR programs.12 Amended Final Results of Administrative Review In accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(e) we determine the following amended final net subsidy rates for the 2013 administrative review: Correction to the Final Results Company asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES As discussed in the memoranda accompanying this notice, and which are hereby adopted by this notice, we determine that the Final Results contained two ministerial errors.10 First, in Guangzhou Jangho’s glass for less than adequate remuneration (LTAR) purchases and benefits spreadsheet, we inadvertently referenced the wrong column in the transaction-specific benefits formulas for Guangzhou Jangho’s glass purchases. We have corrected this error by modifying the relevant formula to refer to the correct column. Second, in Shanghai Jangho’s aluminum extrusions for LTAR purchases and benefits spreadsheet, the formulas used to reference monthly aluminum extrusions benchmark prices were returning the value for the wrong month in certain instances, and in some instances we had used incorrect formulas. We have corrected these errors. 10 See Memorandum from Tyler Weinhold and Davina Friedmann, through Robert James, program Manager, Office VI, to Scot Fullerton, Director, AD/ CVD Operations, Office VI, regarding: ‘‘Administrative Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum Extrusions from the People’s Republic of China: Ministerial Error Allegation,’’ dated concurrently with this memorandum (Amended Final Results Decision Memorandum), and Memorandum from Tyler Weinhold through Robert James, Program Manager, Office VI, to the File, regarding: ‘‘Administrative Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum Extrusions from the People’s Republic of China: Amended Final Results Analysis Memorandum for the Jangho Companies,’’ dated concurrently with this memorandum (Amended Final Analysis Memorandum for the Jangho Companies).

Also, interested parties submitted comments on surrogate country and surrogate value selection. The Department has exercised its discretion to toll all administrative deadlines due to the recent closure of the Federal Government because of Snowstorm ‘‘Jonas.’’ Thus, all of the deadlines in this segment of the proceeding have been extended by four business days. The revised deadline for the preliminary results of this review, after the four business-day extension, was February 23, 2016.2 However, on February 17, 2016, the Department extended the time period for issuing the preliminary results of this NSR by 21 days, until March 15, 2016.3 [A–570–985] Scope of the Order Dated: March 15, 2016.

    Before the Department could take action on the alleged ministerial 
errors, both Taizhou United Imp & Exp Co Ltd. and the Jangho Companies 
filed a summons and complaint with the U.S. Court of International 
Trade (``CIT'') challenging the Final Results, which vested the CIT 
with jurisdiction over the administrative proceeding.\7\ On February 8 
and 12, 2016, the CIT granted the Department leave to publish amended 
final results upon considering the ministerial error allegations.\8\

Correction to the Final Results

    As discussed in the memoranda accompanying this notice, and which 
are hereby adopted by this notice, we determine that the Final Results 
contained two ministerial errors.\10\ First, in Guangzhou Jangho's 
glass for less than adequate remuneration (LTAR) purchases and benefits 
spreadsheet, we inadvertently referenced the wrong column in the 
transaction-specific benefits formulas for Guangzhou Jangho's glass 
purchases. We have corrected this error by modifying the relevant 
formula to refer to the correct column. Second, in Shanghai Jangho's 
aluminum extrusions for LTAR purchases and benefits spreadsheet, the 
formulas used to reference monthly aluminum extrusions benchmark prices 
were returning the value for the wrong month in certain instances, and 
in some instances we had used incorrect formulas. We have corrected 
these errors.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Memorandum from Tyler Weinhold and Davina Friedmann, 
through Robert James, program Manager, Office VI, to Scot Fullerton, 
Director, AD/CVD Operations, Office VI, regarding: ``Administrative 
Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum Extrusions from the 
People's Republic of China: Ministerial Error Allegation,'' dated 
concurrently with this memorandum (Amended Final Results Decision 
Memorandum), and Memorandum from Tyler Weinhold through Robert 
James, Program Manager, Office VI, to the File, regarding: 
``Administrative Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum 
Extrusions from the People's Republic of China: Amended Final 
Results Analysis Memorandum for the Jangho Companies,'' dated 
concurrently with this memorandum (Amended Final Analysis Memorandum 
for the Jangho Companies).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amendment to Rates for Non-Selected Companies Under Review

    In light of the above corrections, for the 38 companies for which a 
review was requested and not rescinded, but were not selected as 
mandatory respondents, we have recalculated the net subsidy rate which 
is based on the overall subsidy rates calculated for the mandatory 
respondents of this review.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ For further information see Memorandum from Davina 
Friedmann and Tyler Weinhold, Case Analysts, to Robert James, 
Program Manager, Office VI, AD/CVD Operations, regarding: 
``Administrative Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum 
Extrusions from the People's Republic of China: Non-Selected Rate 
Calculation Memorandum for the Amended Final Results,'' dated 
concurrently with these amended final results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We have also recalculated the net subsidy rate assigned to those 
companies for which we applied AFA in the Final Results because the AFA 
rate includes the individual subsidy rates determined for the glass for 
LTAR and aluminum extrusions for LTAR programs.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ For further information see Memorandum from Davina 
Friedmann and Tyler Weinhold, Case Analysts, to Robert James, 
Program Manager, Office VI, AD/CVD Operations, regarding: 
``Administrative Review of Countervailing Duty Order on Aluminum 
Extrusions from the People's Republic of China: AFA Calculation 
Memorandum for the Amended Final Results,'' dated concurrently with 
these amended final results of review.
    \13\ Because the net subsidy rate for the Guang Ya Group did not 
change as a result of these amended final results, their net subsidy 
rate remains the same as was published in the Final Results. See 
Final Results, 80 FR 77325, 77327.
    \14\ In the Final Results, the Department misspelled the name of 
this company. This error has been corrected for these amended final 
results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(e) we determine the following
