Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Review
Upon review of the comments
received,10 Commerce continues to
determine that GreenFirst QC is the
successor-in-interest to RYAM.
As a result of this determination,
Commerce finds that entries of subject
merchandise produced and/or exported
by GreenFirst QC should enter the
United States at the cash deposit rate
assigned to RYAM in the most recently
completed administrative review of the
Order, which is 6.20 percent ad
valorem.11 Consequently, Commerce
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to collect estimated
antidumping duties for all shipments of
subject merchandise produced and/or
exported by GreenFirst QC and entered,
or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date of this notice in the Federal
Register at the cash deposit rate
currently in effect for RYAM. This cash
deposit requirement shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice serves as a final reminder
to parties subject to an administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 sanctionable violation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 2, 2023, Commerce
published in the Federal Register a
notice of opportunity to request an
administrative review of the CVD order
on utility scale wind towers from
China.1 On February 28, 2023, the Wind
Tower Trade Coalition (the petitioner)
submitted a timely request that
Commerce conduct an administrative
review.2
On April 11, 2023, Commerce
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of administrative
review with respect to imports of utility
scale wind towers exported and/or
produced by the companies in the
appendix to this notice, in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i).3 On May 11, 2023, we
placed on the record U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) data for entries
of utility scale wind towers from China
during the POR, showing no reviewable
POR entries.4
On May 18, 2023, the petitioner filed
comments that available information
indicated that there may have, in fact,
been entries of subject merchandise that
were not correctly classified upon
entry.5 Upon review, on July 20, 2023,
Commerce referred the matter to CBP for
further consideration.6 Additionally, on
July 20, 2023, Commerce notified all
interested parties of its intent to rescind
the instant review in whole because
there were no reviewable, suspended
entries of subject merchandise by any of
the companies subject to this review
during the POR and invited interested
parties to comment.7 No interested party
submitted comments to Commerce.

when there are no reviewable entries of
subject merchandise during the POR for
which liquidation is suspended.8
Normally, upon completion of an
administrative review, the suspended
entries are liquidated at the CVD
assessment rate calculated for the
review period.9 Therefore, for an
administrative review to be conducted,
there must be at least one reviewable,
suspended entry that Commerce can
instruct CBP to liquidate at the CVD
assessment rate calculated for the
review period.10 As noted above, there
were no entries of subject merchandise
for any of the companies subject to this
review during the POR.11 Accordingly,
in the absence of suspended entries of
subject merchandise during the POR, we
are hereby rescinding this
administrative review in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3) for the
companies listed in the appendix to this
notice.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess
countervailing duties on all appropriate
entries. Countervailing duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated countervailing
duties required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends
to issue assessment instructions to CBP
no earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of this rescission notice in
the Federal Register.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to an
administrative protective order (APO) of
their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).

information indicated that there may have, in fact, been entries of
subject merchandise that were not correctly classified upon entry.\5\
Upon review, on July 20, 2023, Commerce referred the matter to CBP for
further consideration.\6\ Additionally, on July 20, 2023, Commerce
notified all interested parties of its intent to rescind the instant
review in whole because there were no reviewable, suspended entries of
subject merchandise by any of the companies subject to this review
during the POR and invited interested parties to comment.\7\ No
interested party submitted comments to Commerce.

\5\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Comments on CBP Data Query,''
dated May 18, 2023.
\6\ See Commerce's Letter, ``Utility Scale Wind Towers from the
People's Republic of China,'' dated July 20, 2023.
\7\ See Commerce's Letter, ``Notice of Intent to Rescind
Review,'' dated July 20, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to
rescind an administrative review of a CVD order when there are no
reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR for which
liquidation is suspended.\8\ Normally, upon completion of an
administrative review, the suspended entries are liquidated at the CVD
assessment rate calculated for the review period.\9\ Therefore, for an
administrative review to be conducted, there must be at least one
reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce can instruct CBP to liquidate
at the CVD assessment rate calculated for the review period.\10\ As
noted above, there were no entries of subject merchandise for any of
the companies subject to this review during the POR.\11\ Accordingly,
in the absence of suspended entries of subject merchandise during the
POR, we are hereby rescinding this administrative review in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3) for the companies listed in the appendix to
this notice.

Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries. Countervailing duties shall be assessed at rates
equal to the cash deposit of estimated countervailing duties required
at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date
of publication of this rescission notice in the Federal Register.
