Final Results of the Changed Circumstances Reviews

    Because no interested party submitted comments on, and the record 
contains no information or evidence that calls into question, the 
Preliminary Results, the Department adopts the analysis from the 
Preliminary Results and Preliminary Decision Memorandum and continues 
to find that Q CELLS Qidong is the successor-in-interest to SolarOne 
Qidong with respect to the AD orders on solar cells and solar products 
from the PRC, and that Q CELLS Hong Kong is the successor-in-interest 
to SolarOne Hong Kong with respect to the AD order on solar products 
from the PRC. Therefore, Q CELLS Qidong is entitled to the AD cash 
deposit rate of SolarOne Qidong for purposes of the AD orders on solar 
cells and solar products from the PRC, and Q CELLS Hong Kong is 
entitled to the AD cash deposit rate of SolarOne Hong Kong for purposes 
of the AD order on solar products from the PRC.

Instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection

    Based on these final results, we intend to instruct U.S. Customs 
and Border Protection (``CBP'') to collect estimated duties for all 
shipments of solar cells from the PRC and solar products from the PRC 
exported and produced by Q CELLS Qidong and entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this 
notice in the Federal Register at the current AD cash deposit rates for 
SolarOne Qidong. Those cash deposit rates are 13.18 percent \10\ and 
30.06 percent,\11\ respectively.\12\

Qidong is identified as the exporter and manufacturer. In the solar 
cells proceeding, SolarOne Hong Kong does not have a separate rate 
and SolarOne Qidong does have a separate rate, classified under case 
number A-570-979-014, where SolarOne Qidong is identified as the 
exporter and manufacturer. In updating these combination rates, we 
intend to revise both the names of the exporters and manufacturer 
consistent with our final determination that Q CELLS Hong Kong and Q 
CELLS Qidong are the successors-in-interest to SolarOne Hong Kong 
and SolarOne Qidong, respectively.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department furthermore intends to instruct CBP to collect 
estimated duties for all shipments of solar products from the PRC
