determined. Parties should confirm by
telephone the date, time, and location of
the hearing two days before the
scheduled date.
Unless the deadline is extended
pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of
the the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2),
Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review,
including the results of its analysis of
issues raised in any written briefs, not
later than 120 days after the date of
publication of this notice.8
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results,
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.9
If JBL Canada’s calculated weightedaverage dumping margin is above de
minimis in the final results of this
review, we will calculate importerspecific ad valorem duty assessment
rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of antidumping duties
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of the examined
sales to that importer, and we will
instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered
by this review. If JBL Canada’s
weighted-average dumping margin
continues to be zero or de minimis, or
the importer-specific assessment rate is
zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP
to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.10
In accordance with the Department’s
‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, for
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR produced by JBL Canada for
which it did not know its merchandise
was destined for the United States, we
will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others
rate.11
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 41 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review.

after the publication date, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for JBL Canada
will be the rate established in the final
results of this review, except if the rate
is de minimis within the meaning of 19
CFR 351.106(c)(1) (i.e., less than 0.50
percent), in which case the cash deposit
rate will be zero; (2) for merchandise
exported by manufacturers or exporters
not covered in this 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; (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 recentlycompleted segment for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 23.21
percent, the all-others rate established
in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.12 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)(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.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: January 24, 2018.
