Download as PDF jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 212 / Friday, November 5, 2021 / Notices 500–1 System. Manufacturer: Sipat Co., Ltd., Canada. Intended Use:The instruments will only be used for the study and basic understanding of the physical properties of oxide and/or metallic materials, various physical phenomena based on strongly correlated materials such as high temperature superconductors, Topological insulators, or Multiferroics. The growth of new materials will be conducted which have unique electric and magnetic properties using purchased crystal grower. To identify grown materials, we will employ x-ray diffraction and Laue. The high-quality crystals will be further investigated with a physical property measurement system and Magnetic property measurement system to obtain its electric and magnetic properties in varying conditions of temperature, electric and magnetic fields. Docket Number: 21–007. Applicant: Oregon State University, 100 Wiegand Hall, 3051 SW Campus Way, Corvallis, OR 97331. Instrument: Radio Frequency Heating System. Manufacturer: FOSHAN JIYAN HIGH FREQUENCY EQUIP CO., LTD., China.Intended Use: The instrument will be used for studying the phenomena of radio frequency (FR) drying of food materials and understanding the effectiveness in comparison with conventional hot-air drying method. The objectives to be studied: (a) To investigate drying efficiency of radio frequency at various operation conditions and compare with conventional hot-air drying to reduce drying time/cost and improve product quality, (b) to evaluate radio frequency heating for other application in food processing, such as pasteurization, deshelling and roasting of nuts, and drying food processing byproducts. Analytical techniques will be used to obtain quantitative data from the experiments and analyzed statistically to draw valuable conclusions. Docket Number: 21–008. Applicant: University of North Dakota, 266 Upson Hall II, 243 Centennial Drive, Grand Forks, ND 58202–8359. Instrument: Laser metal deposition system. Manufacturer: InssTek, South Korea. Intended Use: Materials to be used are elemental pure metal powders or alloyed metal powders, the research goal will be in-situ alloying of multiple different types of elemental powders (up to six) in the laser melting pool. The primary interest of materials is Inconel 625 alloy, which will be built using the in-situ alloying of commercially pure elemental powders, they are Cr, Mo, Nb, Fe, and Ni powders, and have the diameter ranging from 45 um to 150 um. VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:40 Nov 04, 2021 Jkt 256001 After material is prepared, the energydispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) will be used to analyze the chemical composition and elemental distribution, and the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) will be applied to observe the crystal orientation and grain structure. The objective is to broaden the material availability for AM and to explore its full potential. Docket Number: 21–009. Applicant: Yale University, BCT326, 15 Prospect Street, New Haven, CT 06511. Instrument: 1.25W@4K G–M Cryocooler. Manufacturer: CSIC PRIDE (NANJING) CRYOGENIC TECHNOLOGY CO., China. Intended Use: The instrument will be used to research on superconducting films synthesized in our lab. These phenomena can only be brought to life when cooled to cryogenic temperatures created with liquid helium. The transition temperature (Tc) and magnetic susceptibility of our superconductor samples from the resistive normal state to the zeroresistance superconducting states will be measured. The instrument would slowly cool the sample to low temperature (4 K = ¥269° C) and measure its resistance and magnetic susceptibility at the same time to find the transition temperature Tc. This cryocooler will help to cool our sample from room temperature to 4 K, which is 269 °C below the freezing point in a controlled way. The cooling power required here is essential to ensure that we can reach and maintain at 4 K temperature. The small formfactor and vacuum-compatible design is also required for compatibility reasons.

raised in the case and rebuttal briefs submitted by interested parties. 
In the appendix to this notice, we provide a list of the topics 
discussed in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum. The 
Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file

Final Determination of No Shipments

    In the Preliminary Determination, Commerce determined that Create 
Trading had no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR.\5\ As 
we have not received any information to contradict this determination, 
we continue to find that Create Trading had no shipments during the 
POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Preliminary Determination, 86 FR at 30591.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    As discussed in the Preliminary Determination,\6\ consistent with 
our reseller policy, we find it appropriate in this case to instruct 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate any existing 
entries of subject merchandise produced by Create Trading's 
unaffiliated producers and attributed to Create Trading at the rate 
applicable to the producer(s).\7\ Because none of the producer(s) have 
their own rates, we will instruct CBP to liquidate entries at the all-
others rate from the investigation, as revised, of 2.16 percent,\8\ in 
accordance with the reseller policy.\9\

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).

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be in effect 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) For merchandise exported by manufacturers 
or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment 
of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the 
company-specific rate published for the most recently-completed 
segment; (2) if the exporter is not a firm covered in a prior review, 
or the original investigation, but the manufacturer is, then the cash 
deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently 
completed segment for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (3) the 
cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will 
continue to be 2.16 percent, the all-others cash deposit rate 
established in the Amended LTFV Final. These cash deposit requirements, 
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties

    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 the POR. 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.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (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/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.
