Background
On August 24, 2017, Commerce
published in the Federal Register the
antidumping duty (AD) order on
finished carbon steel flanges from
India.1 On September 7, 2023,
Commerce published in the Federal
Register the preliminary results of the
2021–2022 administrative review of the
Order.2 We invited interested parties to
comment on the Preliminary Results;
however, no interested party submitted
comments. Accordingly, the final results
remain unchanged from the Preliminary
Results, and there is no decision
memorandum accompanying this
notice. Commerce conducted this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).

Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the
Order is finished carbon steel flanges.
For a complete description of the scope
of the Order, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.
Rate for Non-Selected Respondents
The Act and Commerce’s regulations
do not address the establishment of a
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
market economy investigation, for
guidance when calculating the rate for
companies which were not selected for
individual examination in an
administrative review. 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}.’’
In this administrative review, we
preliminarily calculated weightedaverage dumping margins for Norma
group and RNG that are not zero, de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), or
determined entirely on the basis of facts
available. For these final results, we
continue to calculate weighted-average
dumping margins for Norma group and
RNG that are not zero, de minimis, or
determined entirely on the basis of facts
available. Accordingly, Commerce is
assigning to the companies not
individually examined, listed in the
appendix to this notice, a margin of 1.00
percent, which is the weighted average
of Norma group’s and RNG’s margins

review.
Assessment
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce shall determine, 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. For Norma
group and RNG, we calculated importerspecific assessment rates on the basis of
the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for each importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of those
sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1). Where an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, the entries by that importer
will be liquidated without regard to
antidumping duties. For entries of

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 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.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a 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 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 24, 2017, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
antidumping duty (AD) order on finished carbon steel flanges from
India.\1\ On September 7, 2023, Commerce published in the Federal
Register the preliminary results of the 2021-2022 administrative review
of the Order.\2\ We invited interested parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results; however, no interested party submitted comments.
Accordingly, the final results remain unchanged from the Preliminary
Results, and there is no decision memorandum accompanying this notice.
Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the Order is finished carbon steel
flanges. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Rate for Non-Selected Respondents
The Act and Commerce's regulations do not address the establishment
of a 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 market economy investigation, for
guidance when calculating the rate for companies which were not
selected for individual examination in an administrative review. 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} .''
In this administrative review, we preliminarily calculated
weighted-average dumping margins for Norma group and RNG that are not
zero, de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), or determined entirely
on the basis of facts available. For these final results, we continue
to calculate weighted-average dumping margins for Norma group and RNG
that are not zero, de minimis, or determined entirely on the basis of
facts available. Accordingly, Commerce is assigning to the companies
not individually examined, listed in the appendix to this notice, a
margin of 1.00 percent, which is the weighted average of Norma group's
and RNG's margins based on publicly ranged data.\3\

Steel Flanges from India; Administrative Review; 2021-2022:
Preliminary Results Calculation of Margin for Respondents Not
Selected for Individual Examination,'' dated August 31, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
As noted above, the final results of this administrative review
remain unchanged from the Preliminary Results. Thus, Commerce
determines that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist
for the period August 1, 2021, through July 31, 2022:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce will disclose to the parties in a proceeding the
calculations performed in connection with the final results of review
within five days of any 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, Commerce received no comments on the Preliminary
Results, and we have made no adjustments to the margin calculation
methodology used in the Preliminary Results. Consequently, there are no
calculations to disclose for these final results of the administrative
review.
Assessment
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce shall determine, 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. For Norma group and RNG, we calculated importer-specific
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of
dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total
entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
Where an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, the
entries by that importer will be liquidated without regard to
antidumping duties. For entries of subject merchandise during the POR
produced by Norma group and RNG for which the producer did not know its
merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate in the less-than-
fair-value investigation if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\4\ For the companies
identified in the appendix to this notice that were not selected for
individual examination, we will instruct CBP to liquidate entries at
the rates established in these final results of the review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ 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 cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of these final results of
administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
the cash deposit rate for companies subject to this review will be

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 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.
Administrative Protective Order

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
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
The final results of this review are issued and published in
