results of review, we are adopting the
decisions in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum, and continue to find that
the four companies listed above had no
shipments of subject merchandise to the
United States during the POR.
Because no party requested a review
of the China-wide entity, we are not
conducting a review of that entity 5 and
have not changed the antidumping duty
cash deposit rate for the China-wide
entity. The existing antidumping duty
cash deposit rate for the China-wide
entity is 216.01 percent.
For additional details, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum,
which is a public document and is on
file electronically via Enforcement and
Compliance’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).

Decision Memorandum are identical in

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.212(b), 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. Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days
after the publication date of the final
results of this review. Pursuant to
Commerce’s practice in non-market
economy cases, if there are any
suspended entries of subject
merchandise during the POR under the
case numbers of the four companies that
claimed no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR, they will
be liquidated at the China-wide rate.6
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for shipments of

subject merchandise from China
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date in the Federal Register
of the final results of this review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act: (1) The cash deposit rates for the
four companies listed above, which had
no shipments of subject merchandise to
the United States during the POR, will
continue to be the existing cash deposit
rates for those companies; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed
China and non-China exporters which
are not under review in this segment of
the proceeding but which received a
separate rate in a prior segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate; (3) for all China exporters
of subject merchandise that have not
been found to be entitled to a separate
rate, the cash deposit rate will be the
rate for the China-wide entity, which is
216.01 percent; and (4) for all non-China
exporters of subject merchandise which
have not received their own cash
deposit rate, the cash deposit rate will
be the rate applicable to the China
exporter that supplied that non-China
exporter.
These deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice also 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 the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APOs) 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 that
is subject to sanction.

Methodology
We conducted this review in
accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act). For each of the subsidy programs
found to be countervailable during the
POR, we find that there is a subsidy, i.e.,
a government-provided financial
contribution that gives rise to a benefit
to the recipient, and that the subsidy is
specific.6 For a full description of the
