Therefore, in accordance with section 735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act, Commerce is issuing this AD order. Because the ITC determined that imports of brass rod from Israel are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from Israel, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise, for all relevant entries of brass rod from Israel. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of brass rod from Israel entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after December 14, 2023, the date of publication of the AD Preliminary Determination but will not include entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of the ITC’s final injury determination, as further described below.3 BILLING CODE 3510–DS–P DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [A–508–814, C–508–815] Brass Rod From Israel: Antidumping Duty and Countervailing Duty Orders Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.

Accordingly, effective on the date of publication in the Federal Register of the notice of the ITC’s final affirmative injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated customs duties on this subject merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the rates listed in the table below. Estimated Weighted-Average Antidumping Duty Margins The estimated weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: Exporter or producer Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) Finkelstein Metals Ltd ........... All Others .............................. 19.48 19.48 Provisional Measures—AD Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in effect for more than four months, except where exporters representing a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise request that Commerce extend the fourmonth period to no more than six months. At the request of exporters that accounted for a significant proportion of exports of brass rod from Israel, Commerce extended the four-month period to no more than six-months.4 In the underlying investigation, Commerce published the AD Preliminary Determination on December 14, 2023. Therefore, the six-month period beginning on the date of the publication of the AD Preliminary Determination ended on June 10, 2024. For all companies, in accordance with section 733(d) of the Act, we instructed CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without regard to antidumping duties, unliquidated entries of brass rod from Israel entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after June 11, 2024, the first day provisional measures were no longer in effect, until and through the day preceding the date of publication of the ITC’s final injury determination in the Federal Register. 4 See E:\FR\FM\27SEN1.SGM AD Preliminary Determination. 27SEN1
