In accordance with section 751(h) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are
amending the Final Results.7 The
revised weighted-average dumping

Assessment Rate
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the
Department will determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
amended final results of this review.
The Department intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 41 days
after the date of publication of these
amended final results of review.
For assessment purposes, the
Department applied the assessment rate
calculation method adopted in
Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation
of the Weighted-Average Dumping
Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain
Antidumping Proceedings: Final
Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14,
2012).
We calculated such rates based on the
ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of the sales for which
entered value was reported. If an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50
percent) or the exporter has a weightedaverage dumping margin that is zero or
de minimis, the Department will
instruct CBP to assess that importer’s
entries of subject merchandise without

accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by a
respondent for which it did not know
that 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. For a full discussion of
this assessment practice, see
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Proceedings: Assessment of
Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of amended
final results of administrative review for
all shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication of the amended final results
of this administrative review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act:
(1) The cash deposit rate for Deacero
will be the rate established in the
amended final results of this
administrative review; (2) for
merchandise exported by manufacturers
or exporters not covered in this
administrative 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; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 20.11
percent, the all-others rate established
in the investigation.8 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice 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 Secretary’s presumption
that reimbursement of antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
increase in antidumping duties by the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 26, 2015, the Department
published notice of initiation of a new
shipper review of calcium hypochlorite
from the PRC for the period July 25,
2014, through June 30, 2015.2 On
November 5, 2015, the Department
extended the deadline for the
preliminary results to June 14, 2016.3
The Department tolled the deadline for
these preliminary results by an
additional four business days as a result
of the Government closure due to
Snowstorm ‘‘Jonas,’’ which extended
the deadline to June 20, 2016.4
Scope of the Order
mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES
The merchandise covered by the
Order is calcium hypochlorite,
regardless of form (e.g., powder, tablet
(compressed), crystalline (granular), or
in liquid solution), whether or not
blended with other materials,
containing at least 10% available
chlorine measured by actual weight.
Calcium hypochlorite is currently
classifiable under the subheading

Methodology
The Department is conducting this
review in accordance with section
751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’), and 19 CFR
351.214. For a full description of the

Preliminary Rescission of Jingmei New
Shipper Review
For the reasons detailed in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum, the
Department preliminarily finds that, as
a result of Jingmei’s customers’ failure
to provide necessary information, we
cannot determine whether Jingmei’s
sales under review are bona fide, and,
therefore, whether they provide a
reasonable or reliable basis for
calculating a dumping margin. As
result, the Department is preliminarily
rescinding the new shipper review of
Jingmei.

this requirement could result in the
Department’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
The Department is issuing and
publishing these results in accordance
with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(l)

the Department preliminarily finds that, as a result of Jingmei's
customers' failure to provide necessary information, we cannot
determine whether Jingmei's sales under review are bona fide, and,
therefore, whether they provide a reasonable or reliable basis for
calculating a dumping margin. As result, the Department is
preliminarily rescinding the new shipper review of Jingmei.
Disclosure and Public Comment
The Department will disclose the analysis performed for these
preliminary results to the parties within five days of the date of
publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Interested parties may submit written comments by no later than 30 days
after the date of publication of these preliminary results of
review.\6\ Rebuttals, limited to issues raised in the written comments,

publication of this notice.\8\ Hearing requests should contain the
following information: (1) The party's name, address, and telephone
number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of the issues to
be discussed. Oral presentations will be limited to issues raised in
the briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, parties will be

The Department intends to issue the final results of this new
shipper review, which will include the results of its analysis of
issues raised in any such comments, within 90 days of publication of
these preliminary results, pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the
Act.
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the final results, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.212(b), the Department will determine, and the U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. If we proceed to a final rescission of the new
shipper review, Jingmei's entries will be assessed at the rate
entered.\10\ If we do not proceed to a final rescission of the new
shipper review, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we will calculate
importer-specific assessment rates. We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review if
any importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final results
of this review is above de minimis.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See 19 CFR 351.212(c).
\11\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).

Cash Deposit Requirements
Effective upon publication of the final rescission or the final
results of this new
[[Page 41524]]
shipper review, we will instruct CBP to discontinue the option of
posting a bond or security in lieu of a cash deposit for entries of
subject merchandise by Jingmei. If the Department proceeds to a final
rescission of the new shipper review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the PRC-wide rate. If we issue final results of the new
shipper review for Jingmei, we will instruct CBP to collect cash
deposits, effective upon the publication of the final results, at the
rates established therein.
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
The Department is issuing and publishing these results in
accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(l) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.214 and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: June 20, 2016.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
