Production Activity, Flemish Master
Weavers (Machine-Made Woven Area
Rugs), Sanford, Maine
The City of Waterville, Maine, grantee
of FTZ 186, submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ
Board (the Board) on behalf of Flemish
Master Weavers (FMW), located in
Sanford, Maine, within Subzone 186A.
The notification conforming to the
requirements of the Board’s regulations
(15 CFR 400.22) was received on August
2, 2022.
Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ
production activity would be limited to
the specific foreign-status materials/
components and specific finished
product described in the submitted
notification (summarized below) and
subsequently authorized by the Board.
The benefits that may stem from
conducting production activity under
FTZ procedures are explained in the
background section of the Board’s
website—accessible via www.trade.gov/
ftz.
In 2016, FMW received limited FTZ
authority to produce machine-made
woven area rugs using polypropylene
and polyester yarns in privileged foreign
(PF) status (19 CFR 146.41), which
precludes inverted tariff benefits on
those inputs (see 81 FR 51850, August
5, 2016).
In 2017, FMW requested authority to
admit continuous filament
polypropylene (CFPP) yarn in
nonprivileged foreign (NPF) status (19
CFR 146.42) (B–28–2017, 82 FR 26434,
6/7/2017). That request was approved
subject to the following restrictions: (1)
the annual quantitative volume of CFPP
yarn that FMW may admit into Subzone
186A under NPF status was limited to
3 million kilograms; and, (2) approval
was limited to an initial period of five

years, subject to extension upon review
(Board Order 2071, 83 FR 54709, 10/31/
2018).
The pending notification requests to
remove the restriction requiring
admission in PF status for CFPP yarn—
to which FMW’s operation would
otherwise be subject beginning on
October 25, 2023 (upon expiration of the
time-limited authority approved in
Board Order 2071).
The finished product is machinemade woven area rugs (duty-free). The
proposed foreign-status materials and
components include single-ply and twoply continuous filament polypropylene
textured yarn (duty rates 8.8% and 8%
respectively). The request indicates that
the materials/components are subject to
duties under Section 301 of the Trade
Act of 1974 (Section 301), depending on
the country of origin. The applicable
Section 301 decisions require subject
merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in
PF status.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the Board’s Executive
Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The
closing period for their receipt is
September 19, 2022.
A copy of the notification will be
available for public inspection in the
‘‘Online FTZ Information System’’
section of the Board’s website.

Final Determination of No Shipments
Commerce preliminarily found that
17 exporters had not shipped subject
merchandise during the POR.6 As noted
in the Preliminary Results, we received
no shipment statements from these
exporters, and their statements were
consistent with the information we
received from U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP).7 Therefore, for these
final results, we continue to find that
these 17 exporters had no shipments of
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR.

Analysis of Comments Received
VerDate Sep<11>2014
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
With the exception of the
aforementioned 17 exporters that
submitted no shipment certifications,
we find all other companies for which
a review was requested to be part of the
China-wide entity. Accordingly, the
companies listed in Appendix I are part
of the China-wide entity.8
Because no party requested a review
of the China-wide entity, 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.9
6 These 17 exporters are: (1) Shanghai Luli
Trading Co., Ltd.; (2) Celtic Co., Ltd.; (3) Cosco Star
International Co., Ltd.; (4) Happy Wood Industrial
Group Co., Ltd.; (5) Jiaxing Hengtong Wood Co.,

Assessment Rates
We have not calculated any
assessment rates in this administrative
review. Based on record evidence, we
have determined that the
aforementioned 17 companies 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.10
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 sections
751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act): (1) the cash deposit
rates for the 17 companies that had no
shipments during the POR will remain
unchanged from the rates assigned to
them in the most recently completed
segment for each company; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed
Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that
have separate rates, and which were not
assigned the China-wide rate in this
review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the exporter-specific rate
published for the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding;
(3) 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 (4) 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 Order
This notice also serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to an
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).

2022, Commerce published the notice of
initiation of this sunset review of the
Order,2 pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
Subsequently, Commerce received a

receive a substantive response from any
respondent interested party.
On May 24, 2022, Commerce notified
the U.S. International Trade
Commission that it did not receive an
adequate substantive response from
respondent interested parties.6 As a
result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B)
of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce
conducted an expedited (120-day)
sunset review of the Order.

Companies during the Period 01/01/2020 through 12/31/2020,'' dated
April 16, 2021.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
China-Wide Entity
With the exception of the aforementioned 17 exporters that
submitted no shipment certifications, we find all other companies for
which a review was requested to be part of the China-wide entity.
Accordingly, the companies listed in Appendix I are part of the China-
wide entity.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Appendix I.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity, 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.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ 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 17 companies 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.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ 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
sections 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act):
(1) the cash deposit rates for the 17 companies that had no shipments
during the POR will remain unchanged from the rates assigned to them in
the most recently completed segment for each company; (2) for
previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters
that have separate rates, and which were not assigned the China-wide
rate in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the
exporter-specific rate published for the most recently completed
segment of this proceeding; (3) 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 (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
[[Page 48151]]
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 Order
This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
an 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: August 1, 2022.
