On January 23, 2018, Commerce exercised its discretion to toll deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government from January 20 through 22, 2018. If the new deadline falls on a non-business day, in accordance with Commerce’s practice, the deadline will become the next business day. The revised deadline for the preliminary determination of this review is now February 5, 2018.6 sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES Rescission of Administrative Review In instances when a questionnaire is returned because of an undeliverable address and the petitioner is unable to provide an alternative address, Commerce’s practice is to rescind the review of the company.7 While 1 See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 31292 (July 6, 2017); Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Request for Administrative Review,’’ dated May 31, 2017. 2 See Memorandum, ‘‘Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Tracking of Documents to Overseas Distribution Services, Inc.,’’ dated August 2, 2017. 3 See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Re: Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Comments on August 2, 2017 Memorandum to the File,’’ dated August 14, 2017. 4 See Memorandum, ‘‘Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Alternate Contact Information for Overseas Distribution Services, Inc.,’’ dated concurrently with this notice. 5 See Memorandum, ‘‘Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Second Tracking of Documents to Overseas Distribution Services, Inc.,’’ dated January 24, 2018. 6 See Memorandum, ‘‘Deadlines Affected by the Shutdown of the Federal Government,’’ dated January 23, 2018 (Tolling Memorandum).

VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:57 Feb 08, 2018 Jkt 244001 Commerce understands the concerns raised by the petitioner,8 it would be futile to conduct a review of a closed company. Because the questionnaire was undeliverable with indications that the business was closed, ODS being the only respondent under review, and the petitioner is unable to provide an alternative address, we are rescinding the administrative review of certain steel nails from the UAE for the 2016– 2017 POR. Assessment We will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Because Commerce is rescinding this administrative review in its entirety, the entries to which this administrative review pertained shall be assessed antidumping duties 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). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication of this notice. Notifications This notice 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 review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce’s presumption that reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties. This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, 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 terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction. This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4). 8 See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Re: Certain Steel Nails from the United Arab Emirates: Comments on January 24, 2018 Memorandum to the File,’’ dated January 31, 2018.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on our review of the record and comments received from 
interested parties, we made certain changes to the margin calculations 
for Region. For a discussion of these changes, see the ``Margin 
Calculations'' section of the Issues and Decision Memorandum. As a 
result of these changes, the weighted-average dumping margin also 
changed for the company not selected for individual examination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ As we did not have a publicly ranged total U.S. sales value 
for Region for the period December 29, 2014, through June 30, 2016, 
in accordance with our practice, to calculate a weighted-average 
dumping margin for the non-examined company, Tag Fasteners Sdn. 
Bhd., the rate applied to this company is a simple average of the 
weighted-average dumping margins calculated for Inmax and Region.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of the Review

    The final weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: \4\

Disclosure

    We will disclose the calculations performed to parties in this 
proceeding within five days of the date of publication of this notice, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Duty Assessment

    Commerce shall determine and U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) shall assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.\5\ 
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), Commerce will issue instructions directly to CBP to 
assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ In these final results, Commerce 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To determine whether the duty assessment rates covering the period 
were de minimis, in accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 
351.106(c)(2), for each respondent we calculated importer (or 
customer)-specific ad valorem rates by aggregating the amount of 
dumping calculated for all U.S. sales to that importer or customer and 
dividing this amount by the total entered value of the sales to that 
importer (or customer). Where an importer (or customer)-specific ad 
valorem rate is greater than de minimis, and the respondent has 
reported reliable entered values, we will apply the assessment rate to 
the entered value of the importer's/customer's entries during the 
review period.
    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 this notice for all shipments of subject merchandise 
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the

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,

recently completed segment of this proceeding for the manufacturer of 
the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other

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 
liquidation of the relevant entries during the period of review. 
Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's 
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing 
duties did occur and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping 
duties.

Administrative Protective Order

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.
