Certain Steel Nails From the Republic of Korea: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2020-2021, 9863-9865 [2023-03156]

Where either the respondent’s weighted average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is zero or deminimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. For entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales database submitted by an exporter individually examined during this review, but that entered under the case number of that exporter (i.e., at the individually-examined exporter’s cash deposit rate), Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the China-wide entity rate (i.e., 154.07 percent).9 For respondents not individually examined in this administrative review that qualified for a separate rate (i.e., Meihua, Jianlong, and Deosen), the assessment rate will be the dumping margin assigned to the sole mandatory respondent (i.e., Fufeng) in the final results of this review. For the respondents not eligible for a separate rate and that are part of the China-wide entity, we intend to instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment rate of 154.07 percent (i.e., the Chinawide entity rate) to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR that were exported by these companies. Additionally, if Commerce determines that an exporter under review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries that entered under that exporter’s case number will be liquidated at the China-wide rate. Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of review, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for the exporters listed in the table above, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the final results of review that is listed for the exporter in the table; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed China and non-China 8 Id. 9 See Order. VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:16 Feb 14, 2023 Jkt 259001 exporters not listed in the table above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) for all China exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate previously established for the China-wide entity, which is 154.07 percent; and (4) for all non-China exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the China exporter that supplied that non-China exporter. The cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 (APO) This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to APO of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, 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 which is subject to sanction.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On August 4, 2022, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of 
this administrative review and we invited interested parties to 
comment.\1\ On October 31, 2022, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), Commerce 
extended the deadline for issuing these final results until January 31, 
2023.\2\ A summary of the events that occurred since Commerce published 
the Preliminary Results, as well as a full discussion of the issues 
raised by parties for these final results, are discussed in the Issues 
and Decision Memorandum.\3\

Decision Memorandum.

Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in the parties' case and rebuttal briefs are 
addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum and are listed in the 
appendix to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public 
document and is on-file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's

System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on comments received from interested parties regarding our 
Preliminary Results and our review of the record to address those 
comments, we made changes to the preliminary weighted-average dumping 
margin calculations for Daejin and KOWIRE, as detailed in the Issues 
and Decision Memorandum.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comments 4, 5, 6, 10, 
and 11.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rate for Non-Examined Companies

    The Act and Commerce's regulations do not address the establishment 
of a rate to be applied to companies not selected for individual 
examination when Commerce limits its examination in an administrative 
review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, when 
calculating margins for non-selected respondents, Commerce looks to 
section 735(c)(5) of the Act for guidance, which provides instructions 
for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation. Section 
735(c)(5)(A) of the Act provides that when calculating the all-others 
rate, Commerce will exclude any zero and de minimis weighted-average 
dumping margins, as well as any weighted-average dumping margins based 
on total facts available. Accordingly, Commerce's usual practice has 
been to average the margins for selected respondents, excluding margins 
that are zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts available. For 
these final results, we have calculated dumping margins for the two 
mandatory respondents, Daejin and KOWIRE, that are above de minimis and 
not based on total facts available. Therefore, in accordance with 
section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, Commerce assigned to the companies not 
individually examined (i.e., Je-il Wire Production Co., Ltd. and Koram 
Inc.), listed in the chart below, a margin of 2.64 percent which is the 
simple average of Daejin's and KOWIRE's calculated weighted-average 
dumping margins for these final results.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Commerce was unable to compare a simple average to a 
weighted-average relative to publicly available data because public 
data for volume of U.S. sales were not available for respondents.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    As a result of this review, we determine the following weighted-
average dumping margins exist for the POR:

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

                                                               (percent)

Koram Inc...................................................        2.64
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these 
final results within five days of the date of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

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 these final results of 
review.\7\ Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 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 for which entered value was reported. Where 
the respondent's 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice will apply to entries 
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by companies included in 
these final results of review for which the reviewed companies did not 
know that the merchandise it sold to the intermediary (e.g., a 
reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United 
States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed 
entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate 
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\8\ 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,

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

[[Page 9865]]

section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for the 
companies listed above will be equal to the weighted-average dumping 
margin that is established in the final results of this review; (2) for 
previously investigated or reviewed companies not subject to this 
review, the cash deposit rate 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

Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties

    This notice also 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 the 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 
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.

    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5)
