SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the
Order 2 is nails from the UAE. The
products are currently classifiable under
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) subheadings
7317.00.55, 7317.00.65, and 7317.00.75.
While the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written product
description remains dispositive. A full
description of the scope of the order is
contained in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.3

Preliminary Determination of No
Shipments
Based on our analysis of U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP)
information and information provided
by Oman Fasteners, OISI, and Precision,
we preliminarily determine that these
companies had no shipments of the
subject merchandise, and, therefore, no
reviewable transactions, during the
POR. For a full discussion of this
determination, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
The Department is conducting this
review in accordance with section
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). Export price is
calculated in accordance with section
772 of the Act. Normal value is
calculated in accordance with section
773 of the Act. For a full description of
the methodology underlying our
conclusions, see Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
The Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is a public document and
is made available to the public via
Enforcement and Compliance’s
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Centralized Electronic Service System
(ACCESS). ACCESS is available to
registered users at https://

We intend to disclose the calculations
performed to parties in this proceeding
within five days of the date of
publication of this notice in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Pursuant to 19
CFR 351.309(c), interested parties may
submit case briefs not later than 30 days
after the date of publication of this
notice. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues
raised in the case briefs, may be filed
not later than five days after the date for
filing case briefs.5 Parties who submit
case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this
proceeding are encouraged to submit
with each argument: (1) A statement of
the issue; (2) a brief summary of the
argument; and (3) a table of authorities.6
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, filed
electronically via ACCESS. An
electronically filed document must be
received successfully in its entirety by
the Department’s electronic records
system, ACCESS, by 5 p.m. Eastern
Time within 30 days after the date of
publication of this notice.7 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. Issues raised in
the hearing will be limited to those
raised in the respective case briefs. The
Department intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review,
including the results of its analysis of
the issues raised in any written briefs,
not later than 120 days after the date of
publication of this notice, unless
extended, pursuant to section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
4 Dubai Wire was not selected for individual
examination in this review. Generally, we look to
section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides
instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an
investigation, for guidance when calculating the
rate for respondents not selected for individual
review. Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act instructs that
we are not to calculate an all-others rate using any
zero or de minimis margins or any margins based
on total facts available. Accordingly, our usual
practice has been to average the rates for the
selected companies excluding zero, de minimis, and
rates based entirely on facts available. In this
review, we calculated a weighted-average dumping
margin above zero or de minimis for the sole
respondent selected for individual examination,
ODS. Based on this, and analogous to the statutory
provision concerning investigations, we
preliminarily determine that a reasonable method
for determining the weighted-average dumping
margin for Dubai Wire in this review is to assign
the rate calculated for ODS.

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the
administrative review, the Department
shall determine and CBP shall assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. If ODS’ weighted-average
dumping margin continues to be above
de minimis in the final results of this
review, we will calculate an importerspecific assessment rate on the basis of
the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for each
importer’s examined sales and the total
entered value of the sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If ODS’
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis in the final results
of review, we will instruct CBP not to
assess duties on any of its entries in
accordance with the Final Modification
for Reviews, i.e., ‘‘{w}here the weightedaverage margin of dumping for the
exporter is determined to be zero or de
minimis, no antidumping duties will be
assessed.’’ 8
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by ODS for
which it did not know its merchandise
was destined for the United States, 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.
Consistent with our practice, if we
continue to find that Oman Fasteners,
OISI, and Precision had no shipments of
subject merchandise to the United
States in the final results of this review,
we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
any existing entries of merchandise
produced by Oman Fasteners, OISI, and
Precision and exported by other parties
at the all-others rate.
For Dubai Wire, the company not
selected for individual examination, we
will instruct CBP to apply the rate
assigned to it in the final results of this
review, to all entries of subject
merchandise produced and/or exported
by Dubai Wire.
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after publication of the
final results of this review.
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 nails from
the UAE entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after

section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash
deposit rates for ODS and Dubai Wire
will be the rates 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 recent period; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior

the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the
most recent period for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other manufacturers or
exporters will continue to be 4.30
percent, the all-others rate established
in the Order. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
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
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments
Based on our analysis of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
information and information provided by Oman Fasteners, OISI, and
Precision, we preliminarily determine that these companies had no
shipments of the subject merchandise, and, therefore, no reviewable
transactions, during the POR. For a full discussion of this
determination, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
The Department is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Export price
is calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. Normal value
is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, see
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is
made available to the public via Enforcement and Compliance's

Preliminary Decision Memorandum and the electronic version of the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content. A list of the
topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached as
an Appendix to this notice.
Preliminary Results of Review
As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine that the
following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period May 1,
2014, through April 30, 2015:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
Producer/exporter average margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overseas Distribution Services Inc...................... 7.80
Dubai Wire FZE \4\...................................... 7.80
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 37572]]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Dubai Wire was not selected for individual examination in
this review. Generally, we look to section 735(c)(5) of the Act,
which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in
an investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for
respondents not selected for individual review. Section 735(c)(5)(A)
of the Act instructs that we are not to calculate an all-others rate
using any zero or de minimis margins or any margins based on total
facts available. Accordingly, our usual practice has been to average
the rates for the selected companies excluding zero, de minimis, and
rates based entirely on facts available. In this review, we
calculated a weighted-average dumping margin above zero or de
minimis for the sole respondent selected for individual examination,
ODS. Based on this, and analogous to the statutory provision
concerning investigations, we preliminarily determine that a
reasonable method for determining the weighted-average dumping
margin for Dubai Wire in this review is to assign the rate
calculated for ODS.

Disclosure and Public Comment
We intend to disclose the calculations performed to parties in this
proceeding within five days of the date of publication of this notice

and telephone number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of
issues to be discussed. Issues raised in the hearing will be limited to
those raised in the respective case briefs. The Department intends to
issue the final results of this administrative review, including the
results of its analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, not
later than 120 days after the date of publication of this notice,
unless extended, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the administrative review, the Department shall
determine and CBP shall assess antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. If ODS' weighted-average dumping margin continues to be above
de minimis in the final results of this review, we will calculate an
importer-specific assessment rate on the basis of the ratio of the
total amount of antidumping duties calculated for each importer's
examined sales and the total entered value of the sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If ODS' weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis in the final results of review, we will instruct CBP
not to assess duties on any of its entries in accordance with the Final
Modification for Reviews, i.e., ``{w{time} here the weighted-average
margin of dumping for the exporter is determined to be zero or de
minimis, no antidumping duties will be assessed.'' \8\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8102 (February 14,
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by ODS
for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United
States, 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.
Consistent with our practice, if we continue to find that Oman
Fasteners, OISI, and Precision had no shipments of subject merchandise
to the United States in the final results of this review, we intend to
instruct CBP to liquidate any existing entries of merchandise produced
by Oman Fasteners, OISI, and Precision and exported by other parties at
the all-others rate.
For Dubai Wire, the company not selected for individual
examination, we will instruct CBP to apply the rate assigned to it in
the final results of this review, to all entries of subject merchandise
produced and/or exported by Dubai Wire.
We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of
the final results of this review.
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 nails from the UAE 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 rates
for ODS and Dubai Wire will be the rates 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 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; (4) the cash deposit rate for all
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 4.30 percent, the
all-others rate established in the Order. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.
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 review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: June 3, 2016.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
