The U.S. Department of
Commerce (Commerce) published a
notice in the Federal Register of August
24, 2022, in which Commerce
announced the final results of the
changed circumstances review of the
antidumping duty (AD) order on certain
large vertical shaft engines between
225cc and 999cc, and parts thereof
(vertical shaft engines) from the People’s
Republic of China (China). In this
notice, Commerce inadvertently failed
to apply the finding to subject
merchandise produced and exported by
Jialing-Honda Motors Co., Ltd (Jialing)
or produced and exported by Honda
Power Products (China) Co., Ltd.
(Honda). In addition, Commerce did not
include the term ‘‘large’’ in the heading
of the notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On August 24, 2022, Commerce
published in the Federal Register the
final results of the changed
circumstances review of the Order on
vertical shaft engines from China.3 In
the Final CCR Results, Commerce found
that Honda is the successor-in-interest
to Jialing. However, Commerce
incorrectly referenced the cash deposit
rate for subject merchandise ‘‘exported
by Honda’’ 4 instead of subject
merchandise ‘‘produced and exported
by Honda.’’ In addition, Commerce did
not specify that the cash deposit rate for
Jialing applied to subject merchandise
produced and exported by Jialing.

Register at the AD cash deposit rate in
effect for merchandise produced and
exported by Jialing.
On March 4, 2021, Commerce
published an amended final
determination and antidumping duty
order on vertical shaft engines from
China.1 In the Order, Commerce
specified an estimated weighted-average
dumping margin and cash deposit rate
for merchandise produced and exported
by Jialing-Honda Motors Co., Ltd
(Jialing).2 This cash deposit rate, a
producer-exporter combination rate, is
currently imposed for entries of subject
merchandise produced and exported by
Jialing.

Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 59051]]
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the Order is ESB rubber from Mexico. For
a complete description of the scope, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Act. We have calculated constructed export price in
accordance with section 772 of the Act. Normal value is calculated in
accordance with section 773 of the Act.
For a full description of the methodology underlying these
preliminary results, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. A list of
topics included in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is included as
an appendix to this notice. The Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a
public document and is made available to the public 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
Preliminary Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.
Preliminary Results of the Review
For these preliminary results, Commerce has calculated an estimated
weighted-average dumping margin for Negromex for the period September
1, 2020, through August 31, 2021, as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Exporter/producer dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Industrias Negromex S.A. de C.V............................. 0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. If Negromex's weighted-
average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis in the final results
of this review, we will calculate importer-specific ad valorem
antidumping duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales during
the POR to the total entered value of those same sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review where the
importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final results of
this review is not zero or de minimis. If the respondent's weighted-
average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
The final results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment
of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by this review
and for future deposits of estimated duties, where applicable.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Negromex
for which the company 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 if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\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 41 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective 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 rate for Negromex will be
equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final
results of this administrative review, except if the rate is less than
0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2)
for 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 for the most recently-completed
segment of this proceeding in which they were reviewed; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the
original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the producer
is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the
most recently-completed segment of this proceeding for the producer of
the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers
or exporters will continue to be 19.52 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.\7\ These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.

Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, including the results of any
analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, not later than 120
days after the date of publication of this notice, pursuant to section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a 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 doubled
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
section 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: September 22, 2022.
