Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 74—
Baltimore, Maryland; Notification of
Proposed Production Activity;
Mercedes Benz USA, LLC
(Accessorizing Passenger Motor
Vehicles); Baltimore, Maryland
The City of Baltimore, Maryland,
grantee of FTZ 74, submitted a
notification of proposed production
activity to the FTZ Board on behalf of
Mercedes Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA),
located in Baltimore, Maryland. The
notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on May 8, 2017.
MBUSA already has FTZ authority for
accessorizing passenger motor vehicles
within Site 6 of FTZ 74. The current
request would add foreign-status
materials/components to the scope of
authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b),
FTZ activity would be limited to the
specific foreign-status materials and
components described in the submitted
notification (as described below) and
subsequently authorized by the FTZ
Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt MBUSA from customs
duty payments on the foreign-status
components used in export production.
On its domestic sales, MBUSA would be
able to choose the duty rate during
customs entry procedures that applies to
passenger motor vehicles (duty rate—

2.5%) for the foreign-status inputs noted
below and in the existing scope of
authority. Customs duties also could
possibly be deferred or reduced on
foreign-status production equipment.
The components and materials
sourced from abroad include plastic
statuettes and other ornamental articles,
carpets of man-made fiber, smart cards/
memory cards for data storage, and
steering wheels (duty rates range from
free to 5.3%). The applicant indicates
that carpets of man-made fibers would
be admitted to the FTZ in privileged
foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). This
would preclude inverted tariff benefits
on the foreign-status carpets used in its
domestic sales of passenger motor
vehicles.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the FTZ Board’s Executive
Secretary at the address below. The
closing period for their receipt is July
11, 2017.

Elizabeth Whiteman,
Acting Executive Secretary.
The proposed subzone (7.4 acres) is
located at 101 W. Eldora Road in Pharr.
The proposed subzone would be subject
to the existing activation limit of FTZ
12. No authorization for production
activity has been requested at this time.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, Camille Evans of the FTZ
Staff is designated examiner to review
the application and make
recommendations to the Executive
Secretary.

published the Preliminary Results in the
Federal Register.1 From February 15
through February 24, 2017, and March
21 through March 23, 2017, we verified
SIW’s cost and sales questionnaire
responses.2 We invited interested
parties to comment on the Preliminary
Results (inclusive of verification
findings). However, no interested party
submitted comments or requested a
hearing. For the final results, we made
certain changes to our preliminary
margin calculations based on

conducted this administrative review in
accordance with section 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (Act).

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
We made certain changes to the
preliminary margin calculations based
on verification findings. As no parties
commented on the Preliminary Results,
an Issues and Decision Memorandum
has not been prepared. Instead, the
changes to the margin calculation are
detailed in the Final Results Calculation
Memorandum.
Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, the
Department determines that the
following weighted-average dumping
margin exists for entries of subject
merchandise that were produced and/or
exported by the following company
during the POR:
Manufacturer/exporter
The Siam Industrial Wire Co.,
Ltd ...........................................
Weightedaverage
margin
(percent)
0.00
Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review, pursuant to
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.212(b). Because we calculated
a zero margin for SIW in the final results
of this review, we intend to instruct CBP
to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of the
notice of these final results for all
shipments of PC strand from Thailand
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date as provided by section
751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit
rate for SIW will be zero; (2) for
merchandise exported by manufacturers
or exporters not covered in this review
but covered in a completed prior
segment of the proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment; (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 for the manufacturer

of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other manufacturers or
exporters will continue to be 12.91
percent, the all-others rate established
in the Order. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
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 POR.
Failure to comply with this requirement
could result in the Department’s
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping duties has occurred and
the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.305(a)(3), 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 the APO,
which continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. 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
violation subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We intend to issue and publish these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(5).
