Assessment Rates
Upon issuing the final results of the
review, the Department shall determine,
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries. The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of the final results of
review.
For any individually examined
respondents whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis,
we will calculate importer-specific ad
valorem duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales to the total entered value of those
same sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).7 We will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review when the importer-specific
assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is above de
minimis. Where either the respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
The final results of this review shall
be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise covered by the final results
of this review and for future deposits of
estimated duties, where applicable.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective for all shipments of
PET Film from the UAE entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication of the final results of this
administrative review, as provided for
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for the companies
under review will be the rate
established in the final results of this
review (except, if the rate is zero or de
minimis, no cash deposit will be
required); (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above,
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 less-thanfair-value investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
7 In these preliminary results, the Department
applied the assessment rate calculation
methodology adopted in Antidumping Proceedings:

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 4.05
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 also serves as a
preliminary 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 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.
These preliminary results of
administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: December 5, 2016.

Final Results of Review
As noted above, the Department
received no comments concerning the
Preliminary Results on the record of this
segment of the proceeding. As there are
no changes from, or comments upon,
the Preliminary Results, the Department
finds that there is no reason to modify
its analysis. Therefore, in these final
results of review, we have continued to
treat all 38 exporters subject to this
review as part of the PRC-wide entity.2
The PRC-wide entity rate is 40.41
percent.3
Assessment Rates
The Department will determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries in this review,
in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).

2 In the Preliminary Results, we found all 38
exporters subject to this review to be part of the
PRC-wide entity as each exporter failed to submit
an SRA and/or an SRC to establish its eligibility for
separate rate status. As noted above, no party
submitted comments regarding the Preliminary
Results on the record of this segment of the
proceeding. Accordingly, no decision memorandum

projects/building_blocks.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The NCCoE, part of
NIST, is a public-private collaboration
for accelerating the widespread
adoption of integrated cybersecurity
tools and technologies. The NCCoE
brings together experts from industry,
government, and academia under one
roof to develop practical, interoperable
cybersecurity approaches that address
the real-world needs of complex
Information Technology (IT) systems.
By accelerating dissemination and use
of these integrated tools and
technologies for protecting IT assets, the
NCCoE will enhance trust in U.S. IT
communications, data, and storage
systems; reduce risk for companies and
individuals using IT systems; and
encourage development of innovative,
job-creating cybersecurity products and
services.
Process: NIST is soliciting responses
from all sources of relevant security
capabilities (see below) to enter into a
Cooperative Research and Development
Agreement (CRADA) to provide
products and technical expertise to
support and demonstrate security
platforms for the Privacy-Enhancing
Identity Federation Building Block. The
full building block can be viewed at:
https://nccoe.nist.gov/projects/building_
blocks/privacy-enhanced-identitybrokers.
Interested parties should contact NIST
using the information provided in the
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section of this notice. NIST will then
provide each interested party with a
letter of interest template, which the
party must complete, certify that it is
accurate, and submit to NIST. NIST will
contact interested parties if there are
questions regarding the responsiveness
of the letters of interest to the building
block objective or requirements

identified below. NIST will select
participants who have submitted
complete letters of interest on a first
come, first served basis within each
category of product components or
capabilities listed below up to the
number of participants in each category
necessary to carry out this building
block. However, there may be
continuing opportunity to participate
even after initial activity commences.
Selected participants will be required to
enter into a consortium CRADA with
NIST (for reference, see ADDRESSES
section above). NIST published a notice
in the Federal Register on October 19,
2012 (77 FR 64314), inviting U.S.
companies to enter into National
Cybersecurity Excellence Partnerships
(NCEPs) in furtherance of the NCCoE.
For this demonstration project, NCEP
partners will not be given priority for
participation.
Building Block Objective: The primary
objective of this building block is to
demonstrate how federated identity
services, leveraging market dominant
standards, can include privacy
enhancements for individuals and
organizations that are not widely
available in market available identity
solutions. More specifically, this project
seeks innovative ways to protect user
attributes in order to prevent
intermediaries in federated identity
transactions from gaining access to
personal information. Additionally, it
seeks architectures in which
organizations and identity brokers do
not know each other’s organizational
identities, so that neither entity can
track or link user activities beyond what
is known from their direct relationship
with the user. Any approach utilized to
achieve this goal must be able to
mitigate common online attacks, such as
a man-in-the-middle attack.
This project will result in a freely
available NIST Cybersecurity Practice
Guide, describing in depth the technical
decisions, trade-offs, lessons-learned,
and build instructions, based on market
dominant standards, such that
organizations can accelerate the
deployment of a similar privacy
enhancing federated identity
architectures.
A detailed description of the PrivacyEnhancing Identity Federation Building
Block is available at https://
nccoe.nist.gov/projects/building_blocks/
privacy-enhanced-identity-brokers.
Requirements
Each responding organization’s letter
of interest should identify which
security platform component(s) or
capability(ies) it is offering. Letters of
interest should not include company

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as
provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For previously
investigated or reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters not under review in
this segment of the proceeding, but who have separate rates, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published
for the most recent period; (2) 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 PRC-wide entity rate (i.e., 40.41
percent); and (3) 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.
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also 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 Order
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/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 and publishing this notice in accordance with
