Commerce is notifying the public that the CIT’s final judgment is not in harmony with Commerce’s final results of the administrative review, and that Commerce is amending the final results with respect to the dumping margins assigned to Meihua Group International Trading (Hong Kong) Limited/Langfang Meihua Biotechnology Co., Ltd./ Xinjiang Meihua Amino Acid Co., Ltd (collectively, Meihua), Jianlong Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (formerly, Inner Mongolia Jianlong Biochemical Co., Ltd) (Jianlong), and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. DATES: Applicable July 29, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On February 8, 2022, Commerce published its final results in the 2019– 2020 AD review of xanthan gum from the People’s Republic of China. Commerce calculated a weighted- average dumping margin of 154.07 percent for Meihua, a weighted-average dumping margin of 0.00 percent for Neimenggu Fufeng Biotechnologies Co., Ltd. (aka Inner Mongolia Fufeng Biotechnologies Co., Ltd.)/Shandong Fufeng Fermentation Co., Ltd./Xinjiang Fufeng Biotechnologies Co., Ltd (collectively, Fufeng), and reviewspecific average rates of 77.04 percent for Jianlong and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd./Deosen Biochemical Ltd (collectively, Deosen).1 Meihua, Deosen, and Jianlong appealed Commerce’s Final Results. On April 19, 2023, the CIT remanded the Final Results to Commerce, ordering Commerce to reconsider: (1) the application of adverse facts available (AFA) to Meihua; (2) the calculation of the separate rate; and (3) whether Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. should be collapsed into a single entity.2 In its first remand redetermination, issued in June 2023, Commerce found that: (1) its application of AFA to Meihua was appropriate; (2) Commerce’s decision to not rescind its review of Deosen Biochemical Ltd. was proper because it continued to find it to be collapsed with Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd.; and (3) Commerce did not need to recalculate the separate rate.3 The CIT remanded for a second time, ordering Commerce to reconsider: (1) the application of facts otherwise available and total AFA to Meihua; (2) the calculation of the separate rate; (3) whether Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos), Ltd. should be collapsed into a single entity; and (4) whether the review of Deosen Biochemical Ltd. should be rescinded.4 In its final remand redetermination, issued in May 2024, Commerce found that: (1) a rate of zero percent is applicable for Meihua for the POR; (2) the separate rate is now calculated at zero percent for the POR; (3) Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. did not comprise a single entity during the POR; and (4) the 2019–2020 administrative review for Deosen Biochemical Ltd. should be rescinded.5 The CIT sustained Commerce’s final redetermination.6 Timken Notice In its decision in Timken,7 as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,8 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant to section 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), Commerce must publish a notice of court decision that is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with a Commerce determination and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a ‘‘conclusive’’ court decision. The CIT’s July 29, 2024, judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not in harmony with Commerce’s Final Results. Thus, this notice is published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken. Amended Final Results Because there is now a final court judgment, Commerce is amending its Final Results with respect to Meihua, Jianlong, and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. as follows: Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) Exporter Meihua Group International Trading (Hong Kong) Limited/Langfang Meihua Biotechnology Co., Ltd./Xinjiang Meihua Amino Acid Co., Ltd ............................................................................................................................................................................................. 0.00 Review-Specific Average Rate Applicable to the Following Companies: lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Jianlong Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

These entries will remain enjoined pursuant to the terms of the injunction during the pendency of any appeals process. In the event the CIT’s ruling is not appealed, or, if appealed, upheld by a final and conclusive court decision, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Meihua, Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd., and Jianlong in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b). We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 8, 2022, Commerce published its final results in the 
2019-2020 AD review of xanthan gum from the People's Republic of China. 
Commerce calculated a weighted-average dumping margin of 154.07 percent 
for Meihua, a weighted-average dumping margin of 0.00 percent for 
Neimenggu Fufeng Biotechnologies Co., Ltd. (aka Inner Mongolia Fufeng 
Biotechnologies Co., Ltd.)/Shandong Fufeng Fermentation Co., Ltd./
Xinjiang Fufeng Biotechnologies Co., Ltd (collectively, Fufeng), and 
review-specific average rates of 77.04 percent for Jianlong and Deosen 
Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd./Deosen Biochemical Ltd (collectively, 
Deosen).\1\

Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Final 
Determination of No Shipments; 2019-2020, 87 FR 7104 (February 8, 
2022) (Final Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Meihua, Deosen, and Jianlong appealed Commerce's Final Results. On 
April 19, 2023, the CIT remanded the Final Results to Commerce, 
ordering Commerce to reconsider: (1) the application of adverse facts 
available (AFA) to Meihua; (2) the calculation of the separate rate; 
and (3) whether Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) 
Ltd. should be collapsed into a single entity.\2\

    \2\ See Meihua Group Int'l Trading (Hong Kong) Ltd. v. United 
States, 633 F. Supp. 3d 1203 (CIT 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In its first remand redetermination, issued in June 2023, Commerce 
found that: (1) its application of AFA to Meihua was appropriate; (2) 
Commerce's decision to not rescind its review of Deosen Biochemical 
Ltd. was proper because it continued to find it to be collapsed with 
Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd.; and (3) Commerce did not need to 
recalculate the separate rate.\3\ The CIT remanded for a second time, 
ordering Commerce to reconsider: (1) the application of facts otherwise 
available and total AFA to Meihua; (2) the calculation of the separate 
rate; (3) whether Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical 
(Ordos), Ltd. should be collapsed into a single entity; and (4) whether 
the review of Deosen Biochemical Ltd. should be rescinded.\4\

v. United States, 686 F. Supp. 3d 1359 (CIT 2024).

    In its final remand redetermination, issued in May 2024, Commerce 
found that: (1) a rate of zero percent is applicable for Meihua for the 
POR; (2) the separate rate is now calculated at zero percent for the 
POR; (3) Deosen Biochemical Ltd. and Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd. 
did not comprise a single entity during the POR; and (4) the 2019-2020 
administrative review for Deosen Biochemical Ltd. should be 
rescinded.\5\ The CIT sustained Commerce's final redetermination.\6\

Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken,\7\ as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,\8\ 
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant 
to section 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), Commerce must publish a notice of court decision that is not ``in 
harmony'' with a Commerce determination and must suspend liquidation of 
entries pending a ``conclusive'' court decision. The CIT's July 29, 
2024, judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not in 
harmony with Commerce's Final Results. Thus, this notice is published 
in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken.

    Because Meihua, Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd., and Jianlong have 
a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been final results 
published in a subsequent administrative review, we will not issue 
revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP). This notice will not affect the current cash deposit rate.

Liquidation of Suspended Entries

    At this time, Commerce remains enjoined by CIT order from 
liquidating entries that: were produced and/or exported by Meihua, 
Deosen Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd., and Jianlong and were entered, or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period July 1, 
2019, through June 30, 2020. These entries will remain enjoined 
pursuant to the terms of the injunction during the pendency of any 
appeals process.
    In the event the CIT's ruling is not appealed, or, if appealed, 
upheld by a final and conclusive court decision, Commerce intends to 
instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries of 
subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Meihua, Deosen 
Biochemical (Ordos) Ltd., and Jianlong in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(b). We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all 
appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer-specific 
ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis. Where an import-
specific ad valorem assessment rate is zero or de minimis,\9\ we will 
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to 
antidumping duties.
