2023, Ningbo Eagle Machinery &
Technology Co., Ltd. (Ningbo Eagle) and
Zhejiang KIN–SHINE Technology Co.,
Ltd. (Zhejiang KIN–SHINE) timely
requested that Commerce conduct an

On July 12, 2023, Commerce
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of an administrative
review with respect to Ningbo Eagle and
Zhejiang KIN–SHINE, in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).3 On July 13,
2023, Commerce released a
memorandum indicating that there were
no entries of subject merchandise
during the POR based on a U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) entry data
query.4 Commerce provided parties an
opportunity to submit comments on the
data query results.5 No party submitted
comments to Commerce.
On October 17, 2023, Commerce
issued a notice of intent to rescind the
2022 administrative review and
provided parties with an opportunity to
comment.6 No party submitted
comments to Commerce.

Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is
Commerce’s practice to rescind an
administrative review of a
countervailing duty order where it
concludes that there were no reviewable
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR for an exporter or producer.7
Normally, upon completion of an
administrative review, the suspended
entries are liquidated at the
countervailing duty assessment rate for
the review period.8 Therefore, for an
administrative review to be conducted,
there must be a reviewable, suspended

to liquidate at the calculated
countervailing duty assessment rate for
the review period.9 As noted above,
there were no entries of subject
merchandise from either Ningbo Eagle
or Zhejiang KIN–SHINE during the POR.
Accordingly, in the absence of
reviewable, suspended entries of subject
merchandise during the POR, we are
rescinding this administrative review, in
its entirety, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(3).
Cash Deposit Requirements
As Commerce has proceeded to a final
rescission of this administrative review,
no cash deposit rates will change.
Accordingly, the current cash deposit
requirements shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Assessment Rates
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 a final 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 the APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with
regulations and terms of an APO is a
violation, which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(l) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this
administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. 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. If either SNCZ’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis within the meaning
of 19 CFR 351.106(c), or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.

for consumption on or after the date of
publication of the final results of this
administrative review, as provided for
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 review (except, if that rate is de
minimis, then the cash deposit rate will
be zero); (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed in the
final results of this review, including
those for which Commerce may

completed segment of this proceeding;
(3) if the exporter is not a firm covered
in this review or another completed
segment of this proceeding, but the
producer is, then the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most

Background
In accordance with section 751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as

the antidumping duty order on strontium chromate from France.\1\ On
January 3, 2023, in accordance with 19 CFR 251.221(c)(1)(i), we
initiated the administrative review of the Order on SNCZ.\2\ For a

Scope of the Order
The product covered by the Order is strontium chromate from France.
The merchandise subject to review is currently classifiable in the

Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a)(2) of the Act. The export price and constructed export price are
calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. Normal value is
calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full
description of the methodology underlying these preliminary results,
see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. A list of topics discussed in
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached in 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 Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In
addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum can
be accessed directly on the internet at https://access.trade/gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. 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. If either
SNCZ's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c), 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. To determine
whether an importer-specific per-unit duty assessment rate is de
minimis, we calculated an estimated entered value.
Commerce clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on May
6, 2003.\5\ This clarification applies to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by SNCZ for which it did not know
its merchandise 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ For a full discussion of this clarification, see Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping
Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend 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 cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review, as provided for 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 review (except, if that rate is de minimis, then the
cash deposit rate will be zero); (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed in the final results of this review,
including those for which Commerce may determine had no shipments
during the POR, 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 in this review or
another completed segment of this proceeding, 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; and (4) if neither the exporter nor the producer is a firm
covered in this or any previously completed segment of this proceeding,
then the cash deposit rate will be the all-others rate of 32.16 percent
that was established in the less-than-fair-value investigation.\6\
These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary 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 this review period. 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 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 351.213(h) and
351.221(b)(4).
Dated: October 30, 2023.
