Background
On August 13, 2018, the Department
of Commerce (Commerce) published its
Final Results of the first administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain uncoated paper from
Portugal.1 Also on August 13, 2018, The
Navigator Company, S.A. (Navigator),
the respondent in this administrative
review, submitted comments alleging
ministerial errors in Commerce’s Final
Results.2 On August 22, 2018, United
Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber,
Manufacturing, Energy, Allied
Industrial Service Workers International
Union, AFL–CIO, CLC (USW); and the
Packaging Corporation of America
(PCA) (collectively, the petitioners),
submitted a reply rebutting Navigator’s
ministerial error allegation.3 Following

Commerce reviewed the record and
agrees in part with Navigator that it
committed a ministerial error in our
application of AFA.4 In our Final
Results, Commerce commited an
inadvertent error within the meaning of
section 735(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.224(f).5
Therfore, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.224(e), Commerce is amending the
Final Results to reflect the correction of
this ministerial error in the calculation
of the final margin assigned to
Navigator, which changes from 37.34
percent to 1.75 percent.6
Commerce also agrees with Navigator
that we incorrectly published the period
of review (POR) in the ‘‘Final Results of
Review’’ section in the Final Results,
which should have been stated as the
period of August 26, 2015, through
February 28, 2017. These amended final
results of the review reflect the correct
POR throughout.
Amended Final Results of the Review
We determine that, for the period of
August 26, 2015, through February 28,
2017, the following weighted-average
dumping margin exists:
