Duty Assessment
mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES
The Department shall determine and
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries.8 For any
individually examined respondents
whose weighted-average dumping
margin is above de minimis, we
calculated 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). Upon issuance of the final
results of this administrative review, if
any importer-specific assessment rates
calculated in the final results are above
de minimis (i.e., at or above 0.5 percent),
the Department will issue instructions
directly to CBP to assess antidumping
duties on appropriate entries.

Respondent Selection
In the event the Department limits the
number of respondents for individual
examination for administrative reviews
initiated pursuant to requests made for
the orders identified below, the
Department intends to select
respondents based on U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) data for U.S.
imports during the period of review. We
intend to place the CBP data on the
record within five days of publication of
the initiation notice and to make our
decision regarding respondent selection
within 30 days of publication of the
initiation Federal Register notice.
Comments regarding the CBP data and
respondent selection should be
submitted seven days after the
placement of the CBP data on the record
of this review. Parties wishing to submit
rebuttal comments should submit those
comments five days after the deadline
for the initial comments.
In the event the Department decides
it is necessary to limit individual
examination of respondents and
conduct respondent selection under
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act:
In general, the Department has found
that determinations concerning whether
particular companies should be
‘‘collapsed’’ (i.e., treated as a single
entity for purposes of calculating
antidumping duty rates) require a
substantial amount of detailed
information and analysis, which often
require follow-up questions and
analysis. Accordingly, the Department
will not conduct collapsing analyses at
the respondent selection phase of this
review and will not collapse companies
at the respondent selection phase unless
there has been a determination to
collapse certain companies in a
previous segment of this antidumping
proceeding (i.e., investigation,
administrative review, new shipper
review or changed circumstances
review). For any company subject to this
review, if the Department determined,
or continued to treat, that company as
collapsed with others, the Department
will assume that such companies
continue to operate in the same manner
and will collapse them for respondent
selection purposes. Otherwise, the
Department will not collapse companies
for purposes of respondent selection.
Parties are requested to (a) identify
which companies subject to review
previously were collapsed, and (b)
provide a citation to the proceeding in
which they were collapsed. Further, if
companies are requested to complete

Final Results of the Review
As a result of this review, the Department calculated a weighted-
average dumping margin of 1.20 percent for Indalco and 10.79 percent
for Liguori for the period July 1, 2014, through June 30, 2015.
Therefore, in accordance with section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the
Department assigned the weighted-average of these two calculated
weighted-average dumping margins, 4.00 percent, to the 19 non-selected
companies in these final results, as referenced below.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ The rate applied to the non-selected companies is a

Duty Assessment
The Department shall determine and Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.\8\
For any individually examined respondents whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis, we calculated 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). Upon issuance of the final results of this
administrative review, if any importer-specific assessment rates
calculated in the final results are above de minimis (i.e., at or above
0.5 percent), the Department will issue instructions directly to CBP to
assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ In these final results, 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 intend to issue assessment instructions directly 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 subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication of the final
results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)
of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for respondents noted above will
be the rate established in the 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 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
the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 15.45 percent, the all-
others rate established in the antidumping investigation as modified by
the section 129 determination. These cash 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 and/or countervailing duties prior to
[[Page 91122]]
liquidation of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties occurred and
the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (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 the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h).
Dated: December 12, 2016.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
