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). Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), if Habas’ weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent) in the final results of this review, we will calculate an importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rate based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the U.S. sales for a given importer to the total entered value of those sales. If, in the final results, either Habas’ weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Habas for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate such unreviewed entries pursuant to the reseller policy,11 i.e., the assessment rate for such entries will be equal to the all-others rate established in the investigation (i.e., 2.73 percent),12 if there is no rate for the intermediate 9 See 19 CFR 351.212(b). section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act. 11 See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). 12 See Timken Notice. 10 See VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:12 Nov 03, 2022 Jkt 259001 company(ies) involved in the transaction. For the companies for which we have rescinded this review, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit rate of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the POR, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Cash Deposit Requirements The following deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the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 Habas will be equal to its weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of this review (except if the ad valorem rate is de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate will be zero); (2) for previously investigated companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding in which the company participated; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or the underlying investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the completed segment for the most recent POR for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 2.73 percent, the allothers rate established in the underlying investigation.13 These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results, Commerce will determine, and 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.\9\ 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.\10\ 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
    \10\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), if Habas' weighted-average 
dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent) 
in the final results of this review, we will calculate an importer-
specific ad valorem duty assessment rate based on the ratio of the 
total amount of dumping calculated for the U.S. sales for a given 
importer to the total entered value of those sales. If, in the final 
results, either Habas' weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de 
minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-
specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to 
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
    For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Habas 
for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined for the 
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate such unreviewed 
entries pursuant to the reseller policy,\11\ i.e., the assessment rate 
for such entries will be equal to the all-others rate established in 
the investigation (i.e., 2.73 percent),\12\ if there is no rate for the 
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.

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

    For the companies for which we have rescinded this review, Commerce 
intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit rate of estimated 
antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 
warehouse, for consumption, during the POR, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(c)(1)(i).

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following 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 Habas will be 
equal to its weighted-average dumping margin established in the final 
results of this review (except if the ad valorem rate is de minimis 
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash 
deposit rate will be zero); (2) for previously investigated companies 
not participating in this review, the cash deposit will continue to be 
the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed 
segment of this proceeding in which the company participated; (3) if 
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or the underlying 
investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be 
the rate established for the completed segment for the most recent POR 
for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for 
all other producers or exporters will continue to be 2.73 percent, the 
all-others rate established in the underlying investigation.\13\

antidumping duties.

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
