Commerce conducted this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).
Analysis of Comments Received
In the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, we address the sole issue
raised in the case brief submitted by
Echjay, as reflected in Appendix I of
this notice.6 The Issues and Decision
Memorandum is a public document and

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
We made no changes to the
Preliminary Results based on comments
from interested parties.7 However, in
the Preliminary Results, we stated our
intention to update the applicable
countervailing duty (CVD) offset rate in
Chandan’s and Goodluck’s margin
calculation, once the new rates became
available.8 Therefore, for the final
results, we are updating the applicable

proceeding (i.e., the final results of the
2020 administrative review).9
Final Determination of No Shipments
We preliminarily found that Emerson
and Echjay had no reviewable
shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR.10 Based on the
comments received from Echjay, we
continue to find that Echjay had no
reviewable shipments.11 Moreover, no
party commented on the Preliminary
Results regarding the no-shipment
decision for Emerson. Therefore, for
these final results, we continue to find
that these companies had no reviewable
shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR, and we will issue
appropriate instructions to U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
based on these final results.
Rate for Companies Not Selected for
Individual Examination
The Act and Commerce’s regulations
do not address the 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, Commerce looks to
section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which
provides instructions for calculating the
all-others rate in a less-than-fair-value
(LTFV) investigation, for guidance.
Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act,
the all-others rate is normally ‘‘an
amount equal to the weighted-average of
the estimated weighted-average
dumping margins established for
exporters and producers individually
investigated, excluding any zero or de
minimis margins, and any margins
determined entirely {on the basis of
facts available}.’’
For the final results, Commerce
calculated estimated weighted-average
dumping margins for Chandan and
Goodluck that are not zero, de minimis,
or based entirely on facts otherwise
available. Accordingly, Commerce has
continued to calculate the rate for
companies not selected for individual
examination using a weighted average of
the margins calculated for Chandan and
Goodluck weighted by each

Background
On April 12, 2022, Commerce
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of an administrative
review of the countervailing duty order
on CAAS from China with respect to
three companies.1 On September 30,
2022, Commerce extended the deadline
for completion of these preliminary
results until no later than February 28,
2023.2
For a complete description of the
events that followed the initiation of
this review, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.3 A list of topics
discussed in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is included as the
appendix to this notice. The Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is a public
document and is on file electronically
via Enforcement and Compliance’s
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

(ACCESS). ACCESS is available to
registered users at https://

version of the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly

Scope of the Order
The product covered by the Order is
CAAS from China. For a complete
description of the scope of this Order,
see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this
administrative review in accordance

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For
each of the subsidy programs
preliminarily found to be
countervailable, we preliminarily
determine that there is a subsidy, i.e., a
financial contribution from an authority
that gives rise to a benefit to the
recipient and that the subsidy is
specific.4 For a full description of the
methodology underlying our
preliminary results, including our
reliance, in part, on facts available with
adverse inferences pursuant to sections
776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
In making these findings, Commerce
relied, in part, on facts available and,
because the Government of China (GOC)
did not respond to the Initial
Questionnaire,5 Commerce finds that
the GOC did not provide necessary
information, as requested. On that basis,
Commerce determines that the GOC did
not act to the best of its ability to
respond to Commerce’s request for
information and, therefore, in reaching
these preliminary results of review, we
drew an adverse inference where
appropriate in selecting from among the
facts otherwise available. For further
information, see the ‘‘Use of Facts
Otherwise Available and Application of
Adverse Inferences’’ section in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Preliminary Results of Review
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(b)(4)(i), Commerce calculated a
countervailable subsidy rate for the
mandatory respondents that are
identified below. Because there are no
other producers or exporters subject to
this review and not selected for
individual examination (i.e., nonselected companies), Commerce does
not need to establish a rate for such
companies in this review.
4 See sections 771(5)(B) and (D) of the Act
regarding financial contribution; section 771(5)(E)
of the Act regarding benefit; and section 771(5A) of
the Act regarding specificity.

Rate for Companies Not Selected for Individual Examination
The Act and Commerce's regulations do not address the 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, Commerce looks to section
735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the
all-others rate in a less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, for
guidance. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is
normally ``an amount equal to the weighted-average of the estimated
weighted-average dumping margins established for exporters and
producers individually investigated, excluding any zero or de minimis
margins, and any margins determined entirely {on the basis of facts
available{time} .''
For the final results, Commerce calculated estimated weighted-
average dumping margins for Chandan and Goodluck that are not zero, de
minimis, or based entirely on facts otherwise available. Accordingly,
Commerce has continued to calculate the rate for companies not selected
for individual examination using a weighted average of the margins
calculated for Chandan and Goodluck weighted by each

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to disclose the calculations performed for the final
results within five days of the publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and CBP shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise
covered by this review. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), for Chandan
and Goodluck, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem 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 entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced any of
these companies under review for which they did not know their
merchandise was destined for the United States, 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.
For the companies which were not selected for individual
examination, we will assign an assessment rate based on the methodology
described in the ``Rate for Companies Not Selected for Individual
Examination'' section, above.
We intend to issue appropriate 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 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 for by section
751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for Chandan, Goodluck,
and the companies not selected for individual examination will be the
rate established in the final results of this administrative review;
(2) for merchandise exported by producers or exporters not covered by
this review but covered in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published
for the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered by this review, a previous 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; (4) the case deposit rate for all other
producers or exporters will continue to be 7.00 percent,\15\ the all-
others rate established in the LTFV investigation. These cash deposits,
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

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 and/or countervailing 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 and/or countervailing duties occurred
and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties, and/or an
increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of the
countervailing duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
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 which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
