In addition, all tires that lack any of the
prefixes or suffixes listed above in their
sidewall markings are included in the scope,
regardless of their intended use, as long as
the tire is of a size that is among the
numerical size designations listed in the
following sections of the Tire and Rim
Association Year Book, as updated annually,
unless the tire falls within one of the specific
exclusions set forth below. The sections of
the Tire and Rim Association Year Book
listing numerical size designations of covered
certain off road tires include:
The table of mining and logging tires
included in the section on Truck-Bus tires;
The entire section on Off-the-Road tires;
The entire section on Agricultural tires;
and
The following tables in the section on
Industrial/ATV/Special Trailer tires:
• Industrial, Mining, Counterbalanced Lift
Truck (Smooth Floors Only);
• Industrial and Mining (Other than
Smooth Floors);
• Construction Equipment;
• Off-the-Road and Counterbalanced Lift
Truck (Smooth Floors Only);
• Aerial Lift and Mobile Crane; and
• Utility Vehicle and Lawn and Garden
Tractor.
Certain off road tires, whether or not
mounted on wheels or rims, are included in
the scope. However, if a subject tire is
imported mounted on a wheel or rim, only
the tire is covered by the scope. Subject
merchandise includes certain off road tires
produced in the subject countries whether
mounted on wheels or rims in a subject
country or in a third country. Certain off road
tires are covered whether or not they are
accompanied by other parts, e.g., a wheel,
rim, axle parts, bolts, nuts, etc. Certain off
road tires that enter attached to a vehicle are
not covered by the scope.
Specifically excluded from the scope are
passenger vehicle and light truck tires, racing
tires, mobile home tires, motorcycle tires, allterrain vehicle tires, bicycle tires, on-road or
on-highway trailer tires, and truck and bus
tires. Such tires generally have in common
that the symbol ‘‘DOT’’ must appear on the
sidewall, certifying that the tire conforms to
applicable motor vehicle safety standards.
Such excluded tires may also have the
following prefixes and suffixes included as
part of the size designation on their
sidewalls:
Prefix letter designations:
AT—Identifies a tire intended for service on
All-Terrain Vehicles;
P—Identifies a tire intended primarily for
service on passenger cars;
LT—Identifies a tire intended primarily for
service on light trucks;
T—Identifies a tire intended for one-position
‘‘temporary use’’ as a spare only; and
ST—Identifies a special tire for trailers in
highway service.
Suffix letter designations:
TR—Identifies a tire for service on trucks,
buses, and other vehicles with rims having
specified rim diameter of nominal plus
0.156″ or plus 0.250″;
MH—Identifies tires for Mobile Homes;

trucks, buses, and other vehicles. This
suffix is intended to differentiate among
tires for light trucks, and other vehicles or
other services, which use a similar
designation.
Example: 8R17.5 LT, 8R17.5 HC;
LT—Identifies light truck tires for service on
trucks, buses, trailers, and multipurpose
passenger vehicles used in nominal
highway service;
ST—Special tires for trailers in highway
service; and
M/C—Identifies tires and rims for
motorcycles.
The following types of tires are also
excluded from the scope: Pneumatic tires
that are not new, including recycled or
retreaded tires and used tires; non-pneumatic
tires, including solid rubber tires; aircraft
tires; and turf, lawn and garden, and golf
tires. Also excluded from the scope are
mining and construction tires that have a rim
diameter equal to or exceeding 39 inches.
Such tires may be distinguished from other
tires of similar size by the number of plies
that the construction and mining tires
contain (minimum of 16) and the weight of
such tires (minimum 1500 pounds).

Background
On December 28, 2015, the
Department published its Preliminary
Results in this review. On January 27,
2016, SolarWorld Americas Inc.
(‘‘Petitioner’’), Yingli, and Trina
requested a hearing. On February 2,
2016, Petitioner, Yingli, and Trina
submitted case briefs.4 On February 10,
2016, Petitioner, Yingli, and Trina
submitted rebuttal briefs.5 On March 4,
2016, Yingli and Trina withdrew their
requests for a hearing.6 On March 9,
2016, Petitioner withdrew its request for
a hearing.7 Thus, there are no
outstanding hearing requests. On
January 27, 2016, the Department tolled
all administrative deadlines as a result
of the government closure due to
Snowstorm ‘‘Jonas.’’ 8 Subsequently, the
Department extended the deadline for
the final results of this review until June
13, 2016.9

Changes Specific to Trina
• Revised surrogate value choices for
certain direct materials, material offsets,
and movement expenses.
• Revised the imputed credit expense
calculation.
• Revised the warranty expense
calculation.
• Revised the calculation of domestic
inland insurance and marine insurance
expenses.
Changes Specific to Yingli
• Revised surrogate value choices for
certain direct materials and movement
expenses.
• Corrected a conversion error.
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, we found
that Jiangsu Sunlink PV Technology Co.,
Ltd. and Shanghai JA Solar Technology
Co., Ltd. each had no shipments during
the POR.12 We did not receive any
comments concerning our finding of no
shipments by these two companies. For
these final results, the Department
continues to find that Jiangsu Sunlink
PV Technology Co., Ltd. and Shanghai
JA Solar Technology Co., Ltd. did not
have any reviewable transactions of
subject merchandise during the POR.
Separate Rates
In the Preliminary Results, the
Department determined that Trina,
Yingli, and 15 other separate rate
applicants (‘‘separate rate
respondents’’),13 had demonstrated their
eligibility for separate rates 14 but
determined to treat six other
companies 15 subject to this review as
part of the PRC-wide entity because they
did not establish their eligibility to
receive a separate rate.16 Since the
Preliminary Results, the Department has
not received any comments that would
warrant a review of our preliminary

separate rate determinations regarding
these companies. Therefore, we
continue to find that these 15 separate
rate respondents are eligible for a
separate rate while the other six
companies are not, and thus these six
companies are part of the PRC-wide
entity. The Department assigned a
weighted-average dumping margin to
the separate rate companies that it did
not individually examine, but which
demonstrated their eligibility for a
separate rate, based on the mandatory
respondent’s dumping margins as
explained in the memorandum to the
file regarding ‘‘Calculation of the Final
Dumping Margin for Separate Rate
Recipients’’ dated concurrently with

Assessment Rates
The Department will determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review. The Department intends
to issue assessment instructions to CBP
15 days after the publication date of
these final results of this review. In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
we are calculating importer- (or
customer-) specific assessment rates for
the merchandise subject to this review.
For any individually examined
respondent whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis
(i.e., 0.50 percent), the Department will
calculate importer- (or customer)specific assessment rates for
merchandise subject to this review.

Where the respondent reported reliable
entered values, the Department
calculated importer- (or customer)specific ad valorem rates by aggregating
the dumping margins calculated for all
U.S. sales to the importer- (or customer)
and dividing this amount by the total
entered value of the sales to the
importer- (or customer).18 Where the
Department calculated an importer- (or
customer)-specific weighted-average
dumping margin by dividing the total
amount of dumping for reviewed sales
to the importer- (or customer) by the
total sales quantity associated with
those transactions, the Department will
direct CBP to assess importer- (or
customer)-specific assessment rates
based on the resulting per-unit rates.19
Where an importer- (or customer)specific ad valorem or per-unit rate is
greater than de minimis, the Department
will instruct CBP to collect the
appropriate duties at the time of
liquidation. Where either the
respondent’s weighted average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis, or an

For merchandise that was not
reported in the U.S. sales database
submitted by an exporter individually
examined during this review, but that
entered under the case number of that
exporter (i.e., at the individuallyexamined exporter’s cash deposit rate),
the Department will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the PRC-wide
rate. Additionally, if the Department
determines that an exporter under
review had no shipments of the subject
merchandise, any suspended entries
that entered under that exporter’s case
number will be liquidated at the PRCwide rate.21

The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon

Results’’ section of this notice; (2) for
previously investigated PRC and nonPRC exporters that received a separate
rate in a prior segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate; (3) for all PRC exporters of
subject merchandise that have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate
previously established for the PRC-wide
entity (i.e., 238.95 percent); 22 and (4) 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 that supplied that non-PRC
exporter. These deposit requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.

Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)
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 has occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Administrative Protective Order
(‘‘APO’’)
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to APO of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction 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 terms of an APO is a violation
which is subject to sanction.

Background
On December 28, 2015, the Department published its Preliminary
Results in this review. On January 27, 2016, SolarWorld Americas Inc.
(``Petitioner''), Yingli, and Trina requested a hearing. On February 2,
2016, Petitioner, Yingli, and Trina submitted case briefs.\4\ On
February 10, 2016, Petitioner, Yingli, and Trina submitted rebuttal
briefs.\5\ On March 4, 2016, Yingli and Trina withdrew their requests
for a hearing.\6\ On March 9, 2016, Petitioner withdrew its request for
a hearing.\7\ Thus, there are no outstanding hearing requests. On
January 27, 2016, the Department tolled all administrative deadlines as
a result of the government closure due to Snowstorm ``Jonas.'' \8\
Subsequently, the Department extended the deadline for the final
results of this review until June 13, 2016.\9\

\11\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and comments received from
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, and for the
reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we made the
following revisions to our preliminary calculations of the weighted-
average dumping margins for Trina and Yingli:
Changes Specific to Trina
Revised surrogate value choices for certain direct
materials, material offsets, and movement expenses.
Revised the imputed credit expense calculation.
Revised the warranty expense calculation.
Revised the calculation of domestic inland insurance and
marine insurance expenses.
Changes Specific to Yingli
Revised surrogate value choices for certain direct
materials and movement expenses.
Corrected a conversion error.
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, we found that Jiangsu Sunlink PV
Technology Co., Ltd. and Shanghai JA Solar Technology Co., Ltd. each
had no shipments during the POR.\12\ We did not receive any comments
concerning our finding of no shipments by these two companies. For
these final results, the Department continues to find that Jiangsu
Sunlink PV Technology Co., Ltd. and Shanghai JA Solar Technology Co.,
Ltd. did not have any reviewable transactions of subject merchandise
during the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ See Preliminary Results, 80 FR at 80746, and PDM at 5-6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Rates
In the Preliminary Results, the Department determined that Trina,
Yingli, and 15 other separate rate applicants (``separate rate
respondents''),\13\ had demonstrated their eligibility for separate
rates \14\ but determined to treat six other companies \15\ subject to
this review as part of the PRC-wide entity because they did not
establish their eligibility to receive a separate rate.\16\ Since the
Preliminary Results, the Department has not received any comments that
would warrant a review of our preliminary
[[Page 39907]]
separate rate determinations regarding these companies. Therefore, we
continue to find that these 15 separate rate respondents are eligible
for a separate rate while the other six companies are not, and thus
these six companies are part of the PRC-wide entity. The Department
assigned a weighted-average dumping margin to the separate rate
companies that it did not individually examine, but which demonstrated
their eligibility for a separate rate, based on the mandatory
respondent's dumping margins as explained in the memorandum to the file
regarding ``Calculation of the Final Dumping Margin for Separate Rate
Recipients'' dated concurrently with this notice.\17\

Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these final
results of review within five days of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
The Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review. The Department intends to
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date
of these final results of this review. In accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), we are calculating importer- (or customer-) specific
assessment rates for the merchandise subject to this review. For any
individually examined respondent whose weighted-average dumping margin
is above de minimis (i.e., 0.50 percent), the Department will calculate
importer- (or customer)-specific assessment rates for merchandise
subject to this review. Where the respondent reported reliable entered
values, the Department calculated importer- (or customer)-specific ad
valorem rates by aggregating the dumping margins calculated for all
U.S. sales to the importer- (or customer) and dividing this amount by
the total entered value of the sales to the importer- (or
customer).\18\ Where the Department calculated an importer- (or
customer)-specific weighted-average dumping margin by dividing the
total amount of dumping for reviewed sales to the importer- (or
customer) by the total sales quantity associated with those
transactions, the Department will direct CBP to assess importer- (or
customer)-specific assessment rates based on the resulting per-unit
rates.\19\ Where an importer- (or customer)- specific ad valorem or
per-unit rate is greater than de minimis, the Department will instruct
CBP to collect the appropriate duties at the time of liquidation. Where
either the respondent's weighted average dumping margin is zero or de
minimis, or an importer (or customer-) specific ad valorem or per-unit
rate is zero or de minimis, the Department will instruct CBP to
liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\20\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8103 (February 14,
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For merchandise that was not reported in the U.S. sales database
submitted by an exporter individually examined during this review, but
that entered under the case number of that exporter (i.e., at the
individually-examined exporter's cash deposit rate), the Department
will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the PRC-wide rate.
Additionally, if the Department determines that an exporter under
review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended
entries that entered under that exporter's case number will be
liquidated at the PRC-wide rate.\21\

of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011), for a full

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for
shipments of the subject merchandise from the PRC entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse,
[[Page 39908]]
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the
Federal Register, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
For the exporters listed above, the cash deposit rate will be the rate
listed for each exporter in the table in the ``Final Results'' section
of this notice; (2) for previously investigated PRC and non-PRC
exporters that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing
exporter-specific rate; (3) for all PRC exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate previously established for the
PRC-wide entity (i.e., 238.95 percent); \22\ and (4) 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 that supplied that non-PRC exporter. These deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.

14, 2015).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 has occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (``APO'')
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to APO of
their responsibility concerning the return or destruction 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 terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to
sanction.
We are issuing these final results of administrative review and
publishing this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)
of the Act.
