Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and the comment received from interested parties, we made no changes to the Preliminary Results. Final Determination of No Shipments Commerce preliminarily found that 24 exporters had not shipped subject merchandise to the United States during the POR.5 As noted in the Preliminary Results, we received no-shipment certifications from these exporters, and their statements were consistent with the information we received from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).6 Although we received comments from the petitioner 7 on our preliminary noshipment findings with respect to these 24 companies, we find that these comments provide no basis to change our preliminary findings. Therefore, for these final results, we continue to find that these 24 exporters had no shipments of subject merchandise to the United States during the POR. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 China-Wide Entity With the exception of the aforementioned 24 exporters that submitted no-shipment certifications, 5 These 24 exporters are: (1) Anhui Hoda Wood Co., Ltd.; (2) Celtic Co., Ltd.; (3) Cosco Star International Co., Ltd.; (4) Happy Wood Industrial Group Co., Ltd.; (5) Jiaxing Hengtong Wood Co., Ltd.; (6) Linyi Chengen Import and Export Co., Ltd.; (7) Linyi Evergreen Wood Co., Ltd.; (8) Linyi Glary Plywood Co., Ltd.; (9) Linyi Huasheng Yongbin Wood Co., Ltd.; (10) Linyi Jiahe Wood Industry Co., Ltd.; (11) Linyi Sanfortune Wood Co., Ltd.; (12) Qingdao Top P&Q International Corp.; (13) Shandong Qishan International Trading Co., Ltd.; (14) Shanghai Brightwood Trading Co., Ltd.; (15) Shanghai Futuwood Trading Co., Ltd.; (16) Shanghai Luli Trading Co., Ltd.; (17) Suining Pengxiang Wood Co., Ltd.; (18) Suqian Hopeway International Trade Co., Ltd.; (19) Suzhou Oriental Dragon Import and Export Co., Ltd.; (20) Vietnam Finewood Company Limited; (21) Xuzhou Jiangheng Wood Products Co., Ltd.; (22) Xuzhou Jiangyang Wood Industries Co., Ltd.; (23) Xuzhou Timber International Trade Co., Ltd.; and (24) Zhejiang Dehua TB Import & Export Co., Ltd. 6 See Memoranda, ‘‘Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China (A–570–051): No shipment inquiry with respect to the company below during the period 01/01/2019 through 12/31/ 2019,’’ dated May 12, 2020; May 14, 2020, May 15, 2020, May 19, 2020, and May 21, 2020; see also Memoranda, ‘‘Hardwood Plywood Products from the People’s Republic of China (A–570–051): No shipment inquiry with respect to the companies below during the period 01/01/2019 through 12/31/ 2019,’’ dated July 9, 2020, and July 17, 2020. 7 The petitioner is the Coalition for Fair Trade in Hardwood Plywood. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:42 Nov 10, 2021 Jkt 256001 we find all other companies for which a review was requested, including Yuantai, to be part of the China-wide entity. Accordingly, the companies listed in Appendix I are part of the China-wide entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, and Commerce no longer considers the China-wide entity as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative reviews, we did not conduct a review of the Chinawide entity. The rate previously established for the China-wide entity is 183.36 percent and is not subject to change as a result of this review.8 Assessment Rates We have not calculated any assessment rates in this administrative review. Based on record evidence, we have determined that the aforementioned 24 exporters had no shipments of subject merchandise, and, therefore, pursuant to Commerce’s assessment practice, any suspended entries entered under their case numbers will be liquidated at the Chinawide entity rate.9 For all remaining companies subject to this review, which are part of the China-wide entity, we will instruct CBP to liquidate their entries at the current rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 183.36 percent). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the 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). Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this review for shipments of 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 previouslyinvestigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, and which were not assigned the China-wide rate in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter8 See Order. Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011). 9 See PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 62781 specific rate published for the most recently-completed period; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate (including the companies listed in Appendix I), the cash deposit rate will be that for the China-wide entity (i.e., 183.36 percent); and (3) for all nonChinese 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 cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 315.402(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 antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Administrative Protective Orders This notice also serves as the only 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). 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 These final results are issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h). Dated: November 5, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background In accordance with section 705(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), on September 23, 2021, Commerce published its affirmative final determinations that countervailable subsidies are being provided to producers and exporters of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey.1 On November 5, 2021, the ITC notified Commerce of its affirmative final determinations that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by reason of subsidized imports of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey.2 The products covered by these orders are aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey. For a complete description of the scope of these orders, see the appendix to this notice.

Because the ITC determined that imports of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from Oman and Turkey, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, are subject to the assessment of countervailing duties. Therefore, in accordance with section 706(a) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, countervailing duties for all relevant entries of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey. With the exception of entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before the publication of the ITC’s final affirmative injury determinations, as further described below, countervailing duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after March 5, 2021, the date of publication of the Preliminary Determinations.4 Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits In accordance with section 706 of the Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation of aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey, effective on the date of publication of the ITC’s final affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register, and to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, countervailing duties for each entry of the subject merchandise in an amount based on the net countervailable subsidy rates below.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and the comment received from 
interested parties, we made no changes to the Preliminary Results.

Final Determination of No Shipments

    Commerce preliminarily found that 24 exporters had not shipped 
subject merchandise to the United States during the POR.\5\ As noted in 
the Preliminary Results, we received no-shipment certifications from 
these exporters, and their statements were consistent with the 
information we received from U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP).\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ These 24 exporters are: (1) Anhui Hoda Wood Co., Ltd.; (2) 
Celtic Co., Ltd.; (3) Cosco Star International Co., Ltd.; (4) Happy 
Wood Industrial Group Co., Ltd.; (5) Jiaxing Hengtong Wood Co., 
Ltd.; (6) Linyi Chengen Import and Export Co., Ltd.; (7) Linyi 
Evergreen Wood Co., Ltd.; (8) Linyi Glary Plywood Co., Ltd.; (9) 
Linyi Huasheng Yongbin Wood Co., Ltd.; (10) Linyi Jiahe Wood 
Industry Co., Ltd.; (11) Linyi Sanfortune Wood Co., Ltd.; (12) 
Qingdao Top P&Q International Corp.; (13) Shandong Qishan 
International Trading Co., Ltd.; (14) Shanghai Brightwood Trading 
Co., Ltd.; (15) Shanghai Futuwood Trading Co., Ltd.; (16) Shanghai 
Luli Trading Co., Ltd.; (17) Suining Pengxiang Wood Co., Ltd.; (18) 
Suqian Hopeway International Trade Co., Ltd.; (19) Suzhou Oriental 
Dragon Import and Export Co., Ltd.; (20) Vietnam Finewood Company 
Limited; (21) Xuzhou Jiangheng Wood Products Co., Ltd.; (22) Xuzhou 
Jiangyang Wood Industries Co., Ltd.; (23) Xuzhou Timber 
International Trade Co., Ltd.; and (24) Zhejiang Dehua TB Import & 
Export Co., Ltd.
    \6\ See Memoranda, ``Hardwood Plywood Products from the People's 
Republic of China (A-570-051): No shipment inquiry with respect to 
the company below during the period 01/01/2019 through 12/31/2019,'' 
dated May 12, 2020; May 14, 2020, May 15, 2020, May 19, 2020, and 
May 21, 2020; see also Memoranda, ``Hardwood Plywood Products from 
the People's Republic of China (A-570-051): No shipment inquiry with 
respect to the companies below during the period 01/01/2019 through 
12/31/2019,'' dated July 9, 2020, and July 17, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Although we received comments from the petitioner \7\ on our 
preliminary no-shipment findings with respect to these 24 companies, we 
find that these comments provide no basis to change our preliminary 
findings. Therefore, for these final results, we continue to find that 
these 24 exporters had no shipments of subject merchandise to the 
United States during the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ The petitioner is the Coalition for Fair Trade in Hardwood 
Plywood.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

China-Wide Entity

    With the exception of the aforementioned 24 exporters that 
submitted no-shipment certifications, we find all other companies for 
which a review was requested, including Yuantai, to be part of the 
China-wide entity. Accordingly, the companies listed in Appendix I are 
part of the China-wide entity.
    Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, and 
Commerce no longer considers the China-wide entity as an exporter 
conditionally subject to administrative reviews, we did not conduct a 
review of the China-wide entity. The rate previously established for 
the China-wide entity is 183.36 percent and is not subject to change as 
a result of this review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    We have not calculated any assessment rates in this administrative 
review. Based on record evidence, we have determined that the 
aforementioned 24 exporters had no shipments of subject merchandise, 
and, therefore, pursuant to Commerce's assessment practice, any 
suspended entries entered under their case numbers will be liquidated 
at the China-wide entity rate.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For all remaining companies subject to this review, which are part 
of the China-wide entity, we will instruct CBP to liquidate their 
entries at the current rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 183.36 
percent). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no 
earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the 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).

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this review for shipments of 
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 previously-investigated or 
reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that received a separate 
rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, and which were not assigned 
the China-wide rate in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue 
to be the existing exporter-specific rate published for the most 
recently-completed period; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject 
merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate 
(including the companies listed in Appendix I), the cash deposit rate 
will be that for the China-wide entity (i.e., 183.36 percent); and (3) 
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 cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain 
in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 315.402(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 antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as the only 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). 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

    These final results are issued and published in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h).

    Dated: November 5, 2021.
Ryan Majerus,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, Performing the 
Non-Exclusive Functions and Duties of The Assistant Secretary for
