SUMMARY: On February 24, 2021, the U.S. Court of International Trade (the Court) entered final judgment sustaining the final results of remand redetermination pursuant to court order by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) pertaining to the 2015– 2016 antidumping duty (AD) administrative review on diamond jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:13 Mar 18, 2021 Jkt 253001 sawblades and parts thereof (diamond sawblades) from the People’s Republic of China (China). Commerce is notifying the public that the final judgment in this case is not in harmony with Commerce’s final results in the 2015–2016 AD administrative review of diamond sawblades from China, and that Commerce is amending the final results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On April 20, 2018, Commerce published its final results of the 2015– 2016 AD administrative review for diamond sawblades from China.1 In the Final Results, we determined the dumping margin for both mandatory respondents, Chengdu Huifeng New Material Technology Co., Ltd. (Chengdu Huifeng) and the Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity,2 based entirely on adverse facts available (AFA). Because all the mandatory respondents’ rates were based on AFA (and were both the same at 82.05 percent), we applied the mandatory respondents’ rate to the companies eligible for a separate rate that were not selected for individual examination, consistent with section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and the ‘‘expected method’’ of the SAA.3 On September 23, 2019, the Court remanded aspects of the Final Results to Commerce for further consideration.4 The Court remanded Commerce’s decision to reject as untimely a supplemental questionnaire response submitted by Chengdu Huifeng and directed Commerce to consider Chengdu Huifeng’s response in calculating Chengdu Huifeng’s individual dumping margin.5 If this 1 See Diamond Sawblades and Parts Thereof from the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2015– 2016, 83 FR 17527 (April 20, 2018) (Final Results), and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum. 2 The Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity is comprised of Jiangsu Fengtai Diamond Tool Manufacturer Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Fengtai Diamond Tools Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Fengtai Sawing Industry Co., Ltd. 3 See Statement of Administrative Action Accompanying the Uruguay Round Agreements Act, H.R.

For a full description of the scope of these orders, see Appendix I.

Because the ITC determined that imports of corrosion inhibitors from China are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. Therefore, in accordance with sections 736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise and countervailing duties for all relevant entries of corrosion inhibitors from China. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of corrosion inhibitors from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after September 10, 2020, the date of publication of the AD Preliminary Determination, but will not include entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of the ITC’s final injury determination, as further described below.4 2 See ITC’s Letter, ‘‘Notification of ITC Final Determinations,’’ dated March 12, 2021 (ITC Notification Letter). 3 Id. 4 See Certain Corrosion Inhibitors from the People’s Republic of China: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Postponement of Final Determination, and Extension of Provisional Measures, 85 FR 55825 (September 10, 2020) (AD Preliminary Determination), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 20, 2018, Commerce published its final results of the 
2015-2016 AD administrative review for diamond sawblades from China.\1\ 
In the Final Results, we determined the dumping margin for both 
mandatory respondents, Chengdu Huifeng New Material Technology Co., 
Ltd. (Chengdu Huifeng) and the Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity,\2\ based 
entirely on adverse facts available (AFA). Because all the mandatory 
respondents' rates were based on AFA (and were both the same at 82.05 
percent), we applied the mandatory respondents' rate to the companies 
eligible for a separate rate that were not selected for individual 
examination, consistent with section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (the Act) and the ``expected method'' of the SAA.\3\

Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review; 2015-2016, 83 FR 17527 (April 20, 2018) (Final Results), and 
accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum.
    \2\ The Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity is comprised of Jiangsu 
Fengtai Diamond Tool Manufacturer Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Fengtai Diamond 
Tools Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Fengtai Sawing Industry Co., Ltd.
    \3\ See Statement of Administrative Action Accompanying the 
Uruguay Round Agreements Act, H.R. Doc. 103-316, vol. 1 (1994) at

(Fed. Cir. 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 23, 2019, the Court remanded aspects of the Final 
Results to Commerce for further consideration.\4\ The Court remanded 
Commerce's decision to reject as untimely a supplemental questionnaire 
response submitted by Chengdu Huifeng and directed Commerce to consider 
Chengdu Huifeng's response in calculating Chengdu Huifeng's individual 
dumping margin.\5\ If this resulted in a change to Chengdu Huifeng's 
margin, the Court ordered Commerce to adjust the separate rate 
respondents' rates accordingly.\6\ In its first remand redetermination, 
issued in March 2020,\7\ Commerce accepted Chengdu Huifeng's response 
and calculated an individual dumping margin of zero percent for Chengdu 
Huifeng.\8\ Because all the mandatory respondents' rates were either 
zero, de minimis, or based entirely on AFA, Commerce continued to 
determine the separate rate pursuant to the ``expected method.'' \9\ 
Specifically, Commerce averaged the zero percent margin for Chengdu 
Huifeng with the 82.05 percent margin for the Jiangsu Fengtai Single 
Entity to determine a 41.03 percent rate for the separate rate 
companies.\10\

    On July 14, 2020, the Court sustained Commerce's calculation of 
Chengdu Huifeng's zero percent individual margin but remanded 
Commerce's determination of the separate rate, finding that Commerce 
improperly did not consider lower margins from prior administrative 
reviews in determining whether the separate rate reasonably reflects 
the separate rate companies' potential dumping behavior.\11\ In its 
Second Remand Redetermination, issued in October 2020, Commerce 
considered the rates from prior reviews, under respectful protest, and 
determined that the prior rates support continuing to use the expected 
method to determine the separate rate.\12\ Accordingly, Commerce 
continued to calculate a separate rate of 41.03. The Court sustained 
the Second Remand Redetermination in full.\13\

constitutes a final decision of that court that is not in harmony with

the publication requirements of Timken. Accordingly, Commerce will 
continue suspension of liquidation of subject merchandise pending 
expiration of the period of appeal or, if appealed, pending a final and
