and material(s)/component(s) would be
added to the production authority that
the Board previously approved for the
operation, as reflected on the Board’s
website.
The proposed foreign-status
materials/components include: lithiumion battery cells and finished lithiumion batteries (duty rate of 3.4%). The
request indicates that certain materials/
components may be subject to duties
under section 301 of the Trade Act of
1974 (section 301), depending on the
country of origin. The applicable section
301 decisions require subject
merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in
privileged foreign status (19 CFR
146.41). Lucid’s original request for
production authority (B–37–2020)
sought to admit the foreign-status
components described in this
notification in PF status. This request
would remove the PF status limitation.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the Board’s Executive
Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The

review. If the weighted-average
dumping margin for a mandatory
respondent is not zero or de minimis in
the final results of this review, we will
calculate an importer-specific
assessment rate 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 such
sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).12 If the weighted-average
dumping margin is zero or de minimis
in the final results of review, or if an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero
or de minimis, Commerce will instruct
CBP to liquidate appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.13
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by the
respondent(s) for which it did not know
its merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the all-others
rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.14 The final results of
this administrative review shall be the
basis for the assessment of antidumping
duties on entries of merchandise under
review and for future cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties, where
applicable.
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 final results of this administrative
review for all shipments of the subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn

for merchandise exported by a company
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 in the
completed segment for the most recent
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm
covered in this review, a prior review,
or the less-than-fair-value investigation
but the producer is, then the cash
deposit rate will be the rate established
in the most recently completed segment
of the proceeding for the producer of the
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters
will continue to be 112.11 percent, the
all-others rate established in the lessthan-fair-value investigation.15 These
cash 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)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.213(h)(2) and 19 CFR

proceedings we have encouraged interested parties to provide an
executive summary of their brief that should be limited to five pages
total, including footnotes. In this administrative review, we instead
request that interested parties provide, at the beginning of their
briefs, a public executive summary for each issue raised in their
briefs.\9\ Further, we request that interested parties limit their
executive summary of each issue to no more than 450 words, not
including citations. We intend to use the executive summaries as the
basis of the comment summaries included in the issues and decision
memorandum that will accompany the final determination in this
investigation. We request that interested parties include footnotes for
relevant citations in the executive summary of each issue. Note that
Commerce has amended certain of its requirements pertaining to the
service of documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).\10\

\9\ We use the term ``issue'' here to describe an argument that
Commerce would normally address in a comment of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.

Final Results of Review
Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative
review, including the results of its analysis of the issues raised in
any written briefs, no later than 120 days after the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal Register, unless extended,
pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, pursuant to section
751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
[[Page 47131]]
review. If the weighted-average dumping margin for a mandatory
respondent is not zero or de minimis in the final results of this
review, we will calculate an importer-specific assessment rate 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 such sales in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\12\ If the weighted-average
dumping margin is zero or de minimis in the final results of review, or
if an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, Commerce
will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties.\13\ For entries of subject merchandise during the
POR produced by the respondent(s) for which it did not know its
merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\14\ The
final results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise under review
and for future cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties, where
applicable.

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 the final results of this
administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act:
(1) the cash deposit rate for companies subject to this review will be
equal to the company-specific weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of this administrative review; (2) for
merchandise exported by a company 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 in the
completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the less-than-
fair-value investigation but the producer is, then the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established in the most recently completed
segment of the proceeding for the producer of the merchandise; and (4)
the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will
continue to be 112.11 percent, the all-others rate established in the
less-than-fair-value investigation.\15\ These cash 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)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2)
and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: May 23, 2024.
