Final Results of the Administrative Review For these final results, we determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period September 1, 2019, through August 31, 2020: Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and our analysis of the comments received, we made certain changes to the margin calculation for Hyundai. For a complete discussion of these changes, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Rate for Non-Selected Respondents The Act and Commerce’s regulations do not address the establishment of a weighted-average dumping margin to be applied to companies not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a lessthan-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, for guidance when calculating the weighted-average dumping margin for companies which were not selected for individual examination in an administrative review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted-average dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually examined, excluding any margins that are zero, de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), or determined entirely on the basis of facts available. Consistent with our practice and section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, for the companies that were not selected for individual review, we assigned a rate based on the rates of the respondents that were selected for individual examination. Consistent with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit’s decision in Albemarle, we are assigning to the 38 companies not selected for individual examination the zero percent rates calculated for the mandatory respondents, Hyundai and POSCO/PIC.9 These are the only rates determined in this review for individual respondents and, thus, we determine that they apply to the 38 firms not selected for individual examination under section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. 9 See Albemarle Corp. v. United States, 821 F.3d 1345 (Fed. Cir. 2016) (Albemarle). 10 See Appendix II for a full list of the nonselected companies.

Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) 0.00 0.00 0.00 Disclosure Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these final results to parties within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 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. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Commerce calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of those sales. Where the respondent’s weighted-average dumping margin is either zero or de minimis, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Because the weighted-average dumping margins for Hyundai, POSCO/PIC, and the 38 firms not selected for individual examination have been determined to be zero percent, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. In accordance with Commerce’s practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Hyundai or POSCO/PIC for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the all-others rate if there is no company-specific rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.11 11 See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). E:\FR\FM\18MRN1.SGM 18MRN1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 53 / Friday, March 18, 2022 / Notices Consistent with its recent notice,12 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). The final results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise under review and for future cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties, where applicable. jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication in the Federal Register of the notice of these final results 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) The cash deposit rates for the reviewed companies will be the rates established in the final results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by producers 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 in the most recently completed segment of this proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation but the producer has been covered in a prior completed segment of this proceeding, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most recent period for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 20.33 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.13 These cash 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 certificate regarding the reimbursement 12 See Notice of Discontinuation of Policy to Issue Liquidation Instructions After 15 Days in Applicable Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Proceedings, 86 FR 3995 (January 15, 2021). 13 See Order.

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 reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the disposition 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 or 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. Notification to Interested Parties This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(5). Dated: March 11, 2022.

Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in the case brief filed by Hyundai, an interested 
party in this review, are discussed in the Issues and Decision 
Memorandum. A list of the issues which Hyundai raised, and to which we 
responded in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, is attached as 
Appendix I to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a 
public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and 
Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic 
Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at 
https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues 
and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and our analysis of the comments 
received, we made certain changes to the margin calculation for 
Hyundai. For a complete discussion of these changes, see the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum.

Rate for Non-Selected Respondents

    The Act and Commerce's regulations do not address the establishment 
of a weighted-average dumping margin to be applied to companies not 
selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its 
examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) 
of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, 
which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a 
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, for guidance when 
calculating the weighted-average dumping margin for companies which 
were not selected for individual examination in an administrative 
review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is 
normally an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated 
weighted-average dumping margins established for exporters and 
producers individually examined, excluding any margins that are zero, 
de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), or determined entirely on the 
basis of facts available.
    Consistent with our practice and section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, 
for the companies that were not selected for individual review, we 
assigned a rate based on the rates of the respondents that were 
selected for individual examination. Consistent with the U.S. Court of 
Appeals for the Federal Circuit's decision in Albemarle, we are 
assigning to the 38 companies not selected for individual examination 
the zero percent rates calculated for the mandatory respondents, 
Hyundai and POSCO/PIC.\9\ These are the only rates determined in this 
review for individual respondents and, thus, we determine that they 
apply to the 38 firms not selected for individual examination under 
section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Albemarle Corp. v. United States, 821 F.3d 1345 (Fed. 
Cir. 2016) (Albemarle).
    \10\ See Appendix II for a full list of the non-selected 
companies.

Final Results of the Administrative Review

    For these final results, we determine that the following weighted-
average dumping margins exist for the period September 1, 2019, through 
August 31, 2020:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these 
final results to parties within five days of the date of publication of 
this notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), 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. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Commerce calculated 
importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio 
of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the 
total entered value of those sales. Where the respondent's weighted-
average dumping margin is either zero or de minimis, we intend to 
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to 
antidumping duties. Because the weighted-average dumping margins for 
Hyundai, POSCO/PIC, and the 38 firms not selected for individual 
examination have been determined to be zero percent, we intend to 
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to 
antidumping duties. In accordance with Commerce's practice, for entries 
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Hyundai or POSCO/PIC 
for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United 
States, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the all-
others rate if there is no company-specific rate for the intermediate 
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\11\

    Consistent with its recent notice,\12\ 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). The final results of this administrative review shall be 
the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries of 
merchandise under review and for future cash deposits of estimated 
antidumping duties, where applicable.

Liquidation Instructions After 15 Days in Applicable Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Proceedings, 86 FR 3995 (January

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication in the Federal Register of the notice of these final 
results 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) The cash deposit rates for the 
reviewed companies will be the rates established in the final results 
of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by 
producers 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 in the most recently completed 
segment of this proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered 
in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation but 
the producer has been covered in a prior completed segment of this 
proceeding, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in 
the completed segment for the most recent period for the producer of 
the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers 
or exporters will continue to be 20.33 percent, the all-others rate 
established in the LTFV investigation.\13\ These cash 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 certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or countervailing 
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.

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 disposition 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 or 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.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 
351.221(b)(5).

    Dated: March 11, 2022.
Lisa W. Wang,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
