<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 215 / Wednesday, November 6, 2019 / Notices
within five days of the date of
publication of this notice, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However,
because no changes were made to the
preliminary calculations, we refer
parties to the preliminary disclosure
calculation memoranda.8
Assessment Rates
Commerce will determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b). Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days
after the date of publication of the final
results of this review in the Federal
Register.
For any individually examined
respondent whose (estimated) ad
valorem weighted-average dumping
margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e.,
less than 0.50 percent), Commerce will
calculate importer-specific ad valorem
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of those
sales, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).9 We will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review when the importer-specific ad
valorem assessment rate calculated is
not zero or de minimis. Where either the
respondent’s ad valorem weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de
minimis, or an importer-specific ad
valorem assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.10
Cash Deposit Requirements
Because the antidumping duty order
on OTR tires from China was revoked,11
Commerce will not issue cash deposit
instructions at the conclusion of this
administrative review.
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 the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Administrative Protective Order
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 the 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 terms of an APO is a violation
which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
final results of administrative review in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i) of the Act.
Dated: October 30, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 19, 2019, Commerce
published the Preliminary Results of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain coldrolled steel flat products (cold-rolled
steel) from the United Kingdom.1 The
administrative review covers one
producer or exporter of the subject
merchandise, Caparo Precision Strip,
Ltd./Liberty Performance Steels Ltd.
(Liberty).2 We gave interested parties an
opportunity to comment on the
Preliminary Results, and we received a
case brief from Liberty.3 We did not
receive any rebuttal briefs.
Commerce conducted this review in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B)
and (2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the
antidumping duty order are certain
cold-rolled (cold-reduced), flat-rolled
steel products, whether or not annealed,
painted, varnished, or coated with
plastics or other non-metallic
substances. The products subject to this
review are currently classified in the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) under item

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received we
made changes for these final results
which are enumerated in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of the Administrative
Review
We determine that the following

Assessment Rate
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce will determine, 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.
For Liberty, we calculated importerspecific assessment rates on the basis of
the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for each
importer’s examined sales and the total
entered value of the sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).5 For entries
of subject merchandise during the POR
produced by Liberty for which it did not
know its merchandise was destined for
the United States, we intend to instruct
CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at
the all-others rate if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved
in the transaction. We intend to issue
liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days
after publication of these final results of
review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of
this notice for all shipments of coldrolled steel from the United Kingdom
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of
publication, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash
deposit rate for Liberty will be equal to

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain
exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce
(as delegated to NMFS) to allow, upon
request, the incidental, but not
intentional, taking of small numbers of
marine mammals by U.S. citizens who
engage in a specified activity (other than
commercial fishing) within a specified
geographical region if certain findings
are made and either regulations are
issued or, if the taking is limited to
harassment, a notice of a proposed
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
59773
incidental take authorization may be
provided to the public for review.
Authorization for incidental takings
shall be granted if NMFS finds that the
taking will have a negligible impact on
the species or stock(s) and will not have
an unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
taking for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe
the permissible methods of taking and
other ‘‘means of effecting the least
practicable adverse impact’’ on the
affected species or stocks and their
habitat, paying particular attention to
rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of
similar significance, and on the
availability of such species or stocks for
taking for certain subsistence uses
(referred to in shorthand as
‘‘mitigation’’); and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such takings are set
forth.
The definitions of all applicable
MMPA statutory terms cited above are
included in the relevant sections below.
National Environmental Policy Act
To comply with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and
NOAA Administrative Order (NAO)
216–6A, NMFS must review our
proposed action (i.e., the issuance of an
incidental harassment authorization)
with respect to potential impacts on the
human environment. This action is
consistent with categories of activities
identified in Categorical Exclusion B4
(incidental harassment authorizations
with no anticipated serious injury or
mortality) of the Companion Manual for
NOAA Administrative Order 216–6A,
which do not individually or
cumulatively have the potential for
significant impacts on the quality of the
human environment and for which we
have not identified any extraordinary
circumstances that would preclude this
categorical exclusion. Accordingly,
NMFS has preliminarily determined
that the issuance of the proposed IHA
qualifies to be categorically excluded
from further NEPA review.
We will review all comments
submitted in response to this notice
prior to concluding our NEPA process
or making a final decision on the IHA
request.
Summary of Request
On June 3, 2019 NMFS received a
request from the City of Astoria (City)
for an IHA to take marine mammals
incidental to pile driving and
construction work in Astoria, Oregon.
The application was deemed adequate
and complete on October 17, 2019. The

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received we made changes for these final
results which are enumerated in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of the Administrative Review
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin
exists for Liberty for the period of September 1, 2017 through August
31, 2018.

Assessment Rate
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce will determine, 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.
For Liberty, we calculated importer-specific assessment rates on
the basis of the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties
calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total entered
value of the sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\5\ For
entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Liberty for
which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United
States, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at
the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction. We intend to issue
liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of these
final results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

calculation method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation
of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in
Certain Antidumping Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of this notice for all shipments of cold-rolled steel from
the United Kingdom entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for

equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by
producers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a
prior completed segment of the proceeding, then the cash deposit rate
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 investigation but the producer has been
covered in a prior completed segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent segment
for the producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all
other producers or exporters will continue to be 22.58 percent, the
all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.\6\ These cash 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 POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce presuming that reimbursement of
antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
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(a)(3), which
continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or
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 subject to sanction.
