Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 217 / Monday, November 13, 2023 / Notices
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise covered
by the final results of this review.
Commerce intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35
days after the date of publication date 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).
Where the respondent reported
reliable entered values, we calculated
importer–specific ad valorem
assessment rates by aggregating the
amount of dumping calculated for all
U.S. sales to the importer and dividing
this amount by the total entered value
of the merchandise sold to the
importer.6 Where the respondent did
not report reliable entered values, we
calculated importer-specific per-unit
assessment rates by dividing the total
amount of dumping calculated for all
reviewed U.S. sales to the importer by
the total quantity of those sales. We also
calculated an estimated ad valorem
importer–specific assessment rate to
determine whether the per-unit
assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., 0.50
percent or less).7 Where an importer–
specific ad valorem assessment rate is
not zero or de minimis, Commerce will
instruct CBP to collect the appropriate
duties at the time of liquidation.
However, where an importer-specific ad
valorem assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, or a respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de
minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to
liquidate appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.8
We will instruct CBP to apply an
assessment rate to entries of subject
merchandise from the non-individually
examined company, Constellium, equal
to the company’s weighted-average
dumping margin listed in the table in
the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section
above.
For entries that were not reported in
the U.S. sales data submitted by
Novelis, and Speira, but that were
entered under their CBP 10-digit case
numbers (i.e., their cash deposit rates
were applied at the time of entry),
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate
such entries at the all-others rate if there
is no rate for the intermediate

regulations and the terms of an APO is
a sanctionable violation.
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 date of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash
deposit rate for the companies identified
in the table in the ‘‘Final Results of
Review’’ section above will be equal to
the weighted-average dumping margin
listed for the company in that table; (2)
the cash deposit rate for an exporter not
covered by this administrative, will
continue to be the company’s currently
existing cash deposit rate; (3) if the
exporter was not covered by this review
or a completed segment of this
proceeding, but the producer of the
subject merchandise was covered, the
cash deposit rate will be the producers’
most recently established cash deposit
rate; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all
other producers or exporters will
continue to be 49.40 percent, the cash
deposit rate established in the
investigation of this proceeding.10
These cash deposit requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect
until further notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing these final results of
administrative review 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) and 19 CFR
351.213(h)(2).
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 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 final
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(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
