Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), and given that SIW reported entered values for all of its U.S. sales, we 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 the sales. Where an importer-specific assessment rate is de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Consistent with Commerce’s clarification of its assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by SIW for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-others rate in the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation 5 if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.6 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).

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 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 antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as a 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), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding.

    We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin 
exists for the period January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020:

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

Disclosure

    Normally, Commerce will disclose the calculations performed in 
connection with the final results of review to parties to the 
proceeding in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because 
Commerce made no adjustments to the margin calculation methodology used 
in the Preliminary Results, there are no additional calculations to 
disclose for the final results of this review.

[[Page 48153]]

Assessment Rates

    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 section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.212(b).
    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), and given that SIW reported 
entered values for all of its U.S. sales, we 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 the sales. Where an importer-specific assessment rate 
is de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) (i.e., less 
than 0.5 percent), we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the 
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
    Consistent with Commerce's clarification of its assessment 
practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by 
SIW for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the 
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the 
all-others rate in the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) 
investigation \5\ if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) 
involved in the transaction.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Id.
    \6\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 for all 
shipments of PC strand from Thailand entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the 
final results of this administrative review as provided by section 
751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for SIW will be equal 
to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results 
of this review; (2) for producers or exporters not covered in this 
review but covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the 
cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate 
published in the most recently completed segment; (3) if the exporter 
is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original 
LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate 
will be the rate established in the most recently completed segment for 
the producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all 
other producers or exporters will continue to be 12.91 percent, the 
all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation in this 
proceeding.\7\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 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 antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a 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), 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 
terms of an APO is a violation subject to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative 
review in accordance with sections 751(a) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 
CFR 351.221(b)(5).
