Final Determination of No Shipments
We preliminarily found that Bosun
Tools Co., Ltd., Danyang Weiwang Tools
Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and Weihai
Xiangguang Mechanical Industrial Co.,
Ltd., which have been eligible for
separate rates in previous segments of
the proceeding and are subject to this
review, did not have any shipments of
subject merchandise during the POR.7
No party commented on the Preliminary
Results regarding our no-shipments
determination. Therefore, for these final
results, we continue to find that these
companies did not have any shipments
of subject merchandise during the POR
and will issue appropriate instructions
to CBP based on these final results.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and
comments received from interested
parties regarding our Preliminary
Results, and for the reasons explained in
the Issues and Decision Memorandum,
we did not make changes to the
preliminary calculations of the
weighted-average dumping margins for
the mandatory respondents, Chengdu
Huifeng and Wuhan Wanbang, and the
margin assigned to the separate rate
respondents.
Separate Rate for Non-Selected
Companies
In the Preliminary Results, we found
that evidence provided by Chengdu
Huifeng, the Jiangsu Fengtai Single
Entity,8 Wuhan Wanbang, and Zhejiang
Wanli Tools Group Co., Ltd., supported
finding an absence of both de jure and
de facto government control, and,
therefore, we preliminarily granted a
separate rate to each of these

companies/company groups.9 We
received no comments since the
issuance of the Preliminary Results
regarding our determination that these
four companies/company groups are
eligible for a separate rate. As in the
Preliminary Results, Commerce
calculated rates for the mandatory
respondents Chengdu Huifeng and
Wuhan Wanbang that are zero, de
minimis, or based entirely on facts
available. Therefore, in accordance with
section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act and its
prior practice, Commerce assigned a
simple average of Chengdu Huifeng’s
calculated rate (i.e., 0.00 percent) and
Wuhan Wanbang’s AFA rate (i.e., 82.05
percent) as the separate rate for the nonexamined separate rate exporters for

Final Results of Administrative Review
As stated in the Preliminary Results,

the China-wide entity in this review, the
entity is not under review and the
entity’s rate is not subject to change (i.e.,
82.05 percent).11 Aside from the no-

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce
has determined, and 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 no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of these final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a
timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Because the dumping margin for
Chengdu Huifeng New Material
Technology Co., Ltd. is zero, Commerce
will instruct CBP to liquidate the

appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties.13 For Wuhan
Wanbang Laser Diamond Tools Co.,
Ltd., we will instruct CBP to apply an
antidumping duty assessment rate of
82.05 percent to all entries of subject
merchandise that entered the United
States during the POR. For all nonselected respondents that received a
separate rate, we will instruct CBP to
apply an antidumping duty assessment
rate of 41.03 percent to all entries of
subject merchandise that entered the
United States during the POR. For the
three companies that we determined
had no reviewable entries of the subject
merchandise in this review period, any
suspended entries that entered under
that exporter’s case number (i.e., at that
exporter’s rate) will be liquidated at the
China-wide rate, 82.05 percent. For all
other companies, we will instruct CBP
to apply the antidumping duty
assessment rate of the China-wide entity
to all entries of subject merchandise
exported by these companies.14

Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder

China.1 Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than
September 7, 2021.2
Postponement of Preliminary
Determination
Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in an LTFV investigation
within 140 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation.
However, section 733(c)(1) of the Act
permits Commerce to postpone the
preliminary determination until no later
than 190 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation if:
(A) The petitioner makes a timely
request for a postponement; or (B)
Commerce concludes that the parties
concerned are cooperating, that the
investigation is extraordinarily
complicated, and that additional time is
necessary to make a preliminary
determination. Under 19 CFR
351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a
request for postponement 25 days or
more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must
state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.
On August 6, 2021, the petitioner 3
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
determination in the LTFV
investigation.4 The petitioner states that
a postponement is necessary to provide
Commerce with adequate time to collect
and analyze questionnaire responses
from the mandatory respondent,
Zhejiang Zhouli Industrial Co., Ltd.
(Zhejiang Zhouli), to review data to
identify deficiencies, and to investigate
fully the extent to which Zhejiang
Zhouli has engaged in LTFV sales of the

determination falls on September 6, 2021.
Commerce’s practice dictates that where a deadline
falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the
appropriate deadline is the next business day. See

of the Preliminary Results regarding our determination that these four
companies/company groups are eligible for a separate rate. As in the
Preliminary Results, Commerce calculated rates for the mandatory
respondents Chengdu Huifeng and Wuhan Wanbang that are zero, de
minimis, or based entirely on facts available. Therefore, in accordance
with section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act and its prior practice, Commerce
assigned a simple average of Chengdu Huifeng's calculated rate (i.e.,
0.00 percent) and Wuhan Wanbang's AFA rate (i.e., 82.05 percent) as the
separate rate for the non-examined separate rate exporters for these
final results.\10\

China-Wide Entity
As stated in the Preliminary Results, because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity in this review, the entity is not under
review and the entity's rate is not subject to change (i.e., 82.05
percent).\11\ Aside from the no-shipment and separate rate companies
discussed above, Commerce considers all other companies for which a
review was requested and which did not file a separate rate application
to be part of the China-wide entity.\12\

Review; 2012-2013, 80 FR 32344 (June 8, 2015).

Administrative Reviews, 84 FR 2159 (February 6, 2019) (``All firms
listed below that wish to qualify for separate rate status in the
administrative reviews involving NME countries must complete, as
appropriate, either a separate rate application or certification, as
described below.''); see also Appendix II for the list of companies
that are subject to this administrative review and considered to be
part of the China-wide entity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Administrative Review
As a result of this administrative review, Commerce determines that
the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period
November 1, 2018, through October 31, 2019:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-average
Exporters dumping margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chengdu Huifeng New Material Technology Co., Ltd.... 0.00
Wuhan Wanbang Laser Diamond Tools Co., Ltd.......... 82.05
Separate Rate Applicable to the Following Non-
Selected Companies:
Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity................... 41.03
Zhejiang Wanli Tools Group Co., Ltd............. 41.03
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these
final results within five days of any public announcement or, if there
is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication
of this notice of final results in the Federal Register in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b),
Commerce has determined, and 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 no earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of these final results of this review in the Federal
Register. If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of
International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to
liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request
for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 90 days of
publication).
Because the dumping margin for Chengdu Huifeng New Material
Technology Co., Ltd. is zero, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate
the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\13\ For
Wuhan Wanbang Laser Diamond Tools Co., Ltd., we will instruct CBP to
apply an antidumping duty assessment rate of 82.05 percent to all
entries of subject merchandise that entered the United States during
the POR. For all non-selected respondents that received a separate
rate, we will instruct CBP to apply an antidumping duty assessment rate
of 41.03 percent to all entries of subject merchandise that entered the
United States during the POR. For the three companies that we
determined had no reviewable entries of the subject merchandise in this
review period, any suspended entries that entered under that exporter's
case number (i.e., at that exporter's rate) will be liquidated at the
China-wide rate, 82.05 percent. For all other companies, we will
instruct CBP to apply the antidumping duty assessment rate of the
China-wide entity to all entries of subject merchandise exported by
these companies.\14\

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this review for shipments of the
subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For subject merchandise exported
by the companies listed above that have separate rates, the cash
deposit rate will be the rate established in these final results of
review for each exporter as listed above; (2) for previously
investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters not listed
above that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing
exporter-specific rate; (3) for all Chinese exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be that for the China-wide entity; and (4)
for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not
received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate
applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese
exporter. 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
[[Page 46825]]
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's presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a 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. 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
Commerce is issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: August 16, 2021.
