Assessment Rates
Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act, upon issuance of the final
results, Commerce shall determine, and
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review. If the rate calculated for any
respondent, in the final results is zero
or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate all appropriate entries of
subject merchandise without regard to
countervailing duties. 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
Pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of the
Act, Commerce intends to instruct CBP
to collect cash deposits of estimated
countervailing duties in the amounts
calculated for the year 2021 for Bharat
Forge Limited, except, where the rate
calculated in the final results is zero or
de minimis, no cash deposit will be
required on shipments of the subject
merchandise entered or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the date of publication of the final
results of this review. For all nonreviewed firms, CBP will continue to
collect cash deposits of estimated
countervailing duties at the all-others
rate or the most recent company-specific
rate applicable to the company, as
appropriate. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review

selected companies under review also
changed.5
Methodology
Commerce conducted this review in
accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act). For each of the subsidy programs
found countervailable, we find that
there is a subsidy, i.e., a governmentprovided financial contribution that
gives rise to a benefit to the recipient,
and that the subsidy is specific.6 For a
description of the methodology
underlying all of Commerce’s
conclusions, see the Issues and Decision
Memorandum.
Companies Not Selected for Individual
Review
There are six companies for which a
review was requested, but which were
not selected as mandatory respondents
or found to be cross-owned with a
mandatory respondent. These
companies are: POSCO; POSCO Coated
& Color Steel Co., Ltd.; Samsung
Electronics Co., Ltd.; SeAH Coated
Metal; SeAH Steel Corporation; and SY
Co., Ltd. For these six companies, we
applied the final subsidy rate calculated
for KG Dongbu, as this rate is the only
rate calculated for a mandatory
respondent that was above de minimis
and not based entirely on facts
available. This methodology for
establishing the subsidy rate for the
non-selected companies is consistent
with our practice and with section
705(c)(5)(A) of the Act.
Final Results of Review
We determine that, for the period
January 1, 2020, through December 31,
2020, the following total net

Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by this Order is fluid end blocks from
Italy. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(l)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For each
of the subsidy programs found to be countervailable, we preliminarily
determine that there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial contribution by an
``authority'' that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that
the subsidy is specific.\5\ For a full description of the methodology
underlying our conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Preliminary Results of Review
As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine that, for
2020 and 2021, the following estimated countervailable subsidy rates
exist:

Assessment Rates
Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, upon issuance of
the final results, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review. If the rate calculated for
any respondent, in the final results is zero or de minimis, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise without regard to countervailing duties. 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
Pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce intends to
instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing
duties in the amounts calculated for the year 2021 for Lucchini Mame
Forge S.p.A, except, where the rate calculated in the final results is
zero or de minimis, no cash deposit will be required on shipments of
the subject merchandise entered or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of
this review. For all non-reviewed firms, CBP will continue to collect
cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the all-others rate
or the most recent company-specific rate applicable to the company, as
appropriate. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
