Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
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 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.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (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.
Notification to Interested Parties
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).

Memorandum.3 A list of topics
discussed in the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum is included as an
Appendix to this notice. The
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a
public document and is on file

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.
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the order
is modules, laminates and/or panels
consisting of crystalline silicon
photovoltaic cells, whether or not
partially or fully assembled into other
products, including building integrated
materials. For purposes of the order,
subject merchandise includes modules,
laminates and/or panels assembled in
China consisting of crystalline silicon
photovoltaic cells produced in a
customs territory other than 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
with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For
each of the subsidy programs
preliminarily found to be
countervailable, Commerce
preliminarily determines 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 Commerce’s preliminary
conclusions, including Commerce’s
reliance, in part, on facts available with
adverse inferences pursuant to sections
776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received from interested parties and our
examination of record information, we made no changes to our
preliminary dumping margin calculation for SNCZ.
Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, we determine the following weighted-
average dumping margin exists for the POR:

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
performed in connection with the final results of review within five
days of a public announcement or, if there is no public announcement,
within five days of the date of publication of the notice of final
results in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
However, because we have made no changes from the Preliminary Results,
there are no calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), 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 the final results of
this review. As there are no entered values on the record for SNCZ's
sales, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-
specific per-unit duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total
quantity of those sales.\4\ Where an importer-specific assessment rate
is zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will instruct
CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping
duties.\5\ To determine whether an importer-specific per-unit duty
assessment rate is de minimis, we calculated an estimated entered
value.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ We incorrectly stated in the Preliminary Results that we
intended to calculate ad valorem importer-specific assessment rates.
See Preliminary Results, 87 FR at 66652.
\5\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8102 (February 14,
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce's ``reseller policy'' will apply to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by the company included in these
final results of review for which the reviewed company 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 instance, 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.\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 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 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 SNCZ will be
equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final
results of this administrative review (i.e., 2.04 percent); (2) for
merchandise exported by a producer or exporter 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
[[Page 14331]]
most recently completed segment of this proceeding in which the
producer or exporter participated; (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, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most recently completed segment of
the proceeding for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other producers and exporters will continue to be
32.16 percent ad valorem, the all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation.\7\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
