Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of the
comments received, we have not made
changes to the Preliminary Results. For
a discussion of our analysis of the
comments received, see Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of Review
For the final results of this review, in
accordance with sections 776(a) and (b)
of the Act, we continued to rely on facts
available with an adverse inference to
establish a rate of 6.19 percent as the
weighted-average dumping margin for
TFM for the period May 1, 2014,
through April 30, 2015. As the
Department explained in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum, the
6.19 percent rate is the highest applied
margin in a separate segment of the
same proceeding, and according to
776(c)(2) of the Act, this rate does not
require corroboration.6
ehiers on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
apply an ad valorem assessment rate of
6.19 percent to all entries of subject
merchandise during the POR which
were produced and/or exported by
TFM. We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after publication of the
final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of final results
of administrative review for all
shipments of OBAs from Taiwan
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,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
rate for TFM will be 6.19 percent, the
weighted average dumping margin
established in the final results of this
administrative review; (2) for other
manufacturers and exporters covered in
a prior segment of the proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (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 recently completed segment of this
proceeding for the manufacturer of
subject merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 6.19
percent, the all-others rate established
in the less than fair value investigation.7
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
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: June 27, 2016.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance.

Background
Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the
MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) direct
the Secretary of Commerce to allow,
upon request by U.S. citizens who
engage in a specified activity (other than
commercial fishing) within a specified
area, the incidental, but not intentional,
taking of small numbers of marine
mammals, providing that certain
findings are made and the necessary
prescriptions are established.

The incidental taking of small
numbers of marine mammals may be
allowed only if NMFS (through
authority delegated by the Secretary)
finds that the total taking by the
specified activity during the specified
time period will (i) have a negligible
impact on the species or stock(s) and (ii)
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on the availability of the species or
stock(s) for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, the permissible
methods of taking and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such taking must be set
forth, either in specific regulations or in
an authorization.
The allowance of such incidental
taking under section 101(a)(5)(A), by
harassment, serious injury, death, or a
combination thereof, requires that
regulations be established.
Subsequently, a Letter of Authorization
may be issued pursuant to the
prescriptions established in such
regulations, providing that the level of
taking will be consistent with the
findings made for the total taking
allowable under the specific regulations.
Under section 101(a)(5)(D), NMFS may
authorize such incidental taking by
harassment only, for periods of not more
than one year, pursuant to requirements
and conditions contained within an
IHA. The establishment of prescriptions
through either specific regulations or an
authorization requires notice and
opportunity for public comment.
NMFS has defined ‘‘negligible
impact’’ in 50 CFR 216.103 as ‘‘. . . an
impact resulting from the specified
activity that cannot be reasonably
expected to, and is not reasonably likely
to, adversely affect the species or stock
through effects on annual rates of
recruitment or survival.’’ Except with
respect to certain activities not pertinent
here, section 3(18) of the MMPA defines
‘‘harassment’’ as: ‘‘. . . any act of
pursuit, torment, or annoyance which (i)
has the potential to injure a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild [Level A harassment]; or (ii) has
the potential to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of behavioral
patterns, including, but not limited to,
migration, breathing, nursing, breeding,
feeding, or sheltering [Level B
harassment].’’
Summary of Request
On February 8, 2016, we received a
request from WETA for authorization of
the taking, by level B harassment only,
of marine mammals, incidental to pile
driving and removal in association with
the San Francisco Ferry Terminal
Expansion Project, South Basin
