Final Results of CCRs

    For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, and because we 
received no comments from interested parties regarding the Preliminary 
Results, we continue to find that HSP is the successor-in-interest to 
Hyundai Steel with respect to the subject merchandise and the Orders. 
As a result of this determination, and consistent with our established 
practice,\5\ we find that HSP is entitled to the AD cash deposit rates 
applicable to Hyundai Steel for entries of subject merchandise. Because 
there are no changes from the Preliminary Results, there is no decision 
memorandum accompanying this notice, and we are adopting the 
Preliminary Results as the final results of these CCRs.

Review, 89 FR 77472 (September 23, 2024).

    Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject 
merchandise produced and/or exported by HSP and entered, or withdrawn 
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of 
this notice in the Federal Register at Hyundai Steel's AD cash deposit 
rates in effect for the respective Orders. These cash deposit 
requirements shall remain in effect until further notice.
