Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and
comments received from interested
parties regarding our Preliminary
Results, we made certain changes to the
preliminary weighted-average margin
for Electrolux.6
Final Results of the Review
As a result of this review, Commerce
determines that a weighted-average
dumping margin of 2.25 percent exists
for Electrolux for the period February 1,
2017 through January 31, 2018.
Disclosure of Calculations
We intend to disclose the calculations
performed within five days of the date
of publication of this notice to parties in
this proceeding, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce has determined, 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 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Electrolux reported the entered value of
its U.S. sales such that we calculated
importer-specific ad valorem duty
assessment rates based on the ratio of
the total amount of dumping calculated
for the examined sales to the total
entered value of the sales for which
entered value was reported. Where the
respondent’s weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis within the
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero

Comment 2.
E:\FR\FM\01OCN1.SGM
01OCN1
52064
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 190 / Tuesday, October 1, 2019 / Notices
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
We intend to issue liquidation
instructions to CBP 41 days after
publication of the final results of this
review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for Electrolux will
be equal to the weighted-average
dumping margin that is established in
the final results of this review; (2) for
previously investigated companies not
participating in this review, the cash
deposit will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company
participated; (3) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the original less-than-fairvalue (LTFV) investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the cash deposit rate established
for the most recently completed segment
for the producer of the subject
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters
will continue to be 36.52 percent, the
all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation.7 These deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
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 antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to APO of
their responsibility concerning the
disposition 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 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act.
