Machinery. Antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i).
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department will determine, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.18 The Department intends to
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15
days after the publication date of the
final results of this review. We will
instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review if any assessment rate
calculated in the final results of this
review is above de minimis. 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.
Assessment of duties resulting from the
final results of this review will pertain
only to entries of subject merchandise
(i.e., innerspring units from the PRC).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for shipments of
the subject merchandise from the PRC
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of this notice, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act: (1) For PT Sunhere, the cash
deposit rate will be that established in
the final results of this review (except,
if the rate is zero or de minimis, then
zero cash deposit will be required) and
the Department will collect cash
deposits only on PT Sunhere’s PRCorigin merchandise; (2) for previously
investigated or reviewed PRC and nonPRC exporters not listed above that
received a separate rate in a prior
segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
existing exporter-specific rate published
for the most recently completed period;
(3) 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 rate
of 234.51 percent; and (4) for all nonPRC 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.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a
preliminary 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
Department’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 3, 2017, the Department
published the notice of initiation of the
first sunset review of the antidumping
duty order on LPTs from Korea,
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).1 On
July 18, 2017, the Department received
a notice of intent to participate in this
review from ABB Inc., (ABB) within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i). ABB claimed interested
party status under section 771(9)(C) of
the Act, as a manufacturer of a domestic
like product in the United States.
On August 2, 2017, we received a
complete substantive response for this
review from ABB within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no
substantive responses from any other
interested parties, nor was a hearing
requested. As a result, pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the
Department conducted an expedited
(120-day) sunset review of the order.
Scope of the Order
The scope of this order covers large
liquid dielectric power transformers
(LPTs) having a top power handling
capacity greater than or equal to 60,000
kilovolt amperes (60 megavolt amperes),
whether assembled or unassembled,
complete or incomplete.
Incomplete LPTs are subassemblies
consisting of the active part and any
other parts attached to, imported with or
invoiced with the active parts of LPTs.
The ‘‘active part’’ of the transformer
consists of one or more of the following
when attached to or otherwise
assembled with one another: The steel
core or shell, the windings, electrical
insulation between the windings, the
mechanical frame for an LPT.
The product definition encompasses
all such LPTs regardless of name
designation, including but not limited to
step-up transformers, step-down
transformers, autotransformers,
interconnection transformers, voltage
regulator transformers, rectifier
