Final Results of the Administrative

Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations
performed for these final results to
parties within five days after public
announcement or, if there is no public
announcement, within five days of the
date of publication of this notice, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rate
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries.7 For any
individually examined respondents
whose weighted-average dumping
margin is above de minimis (i.e., 0.5
percent), we calculated importerspecific ad valorem duty assessment
rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for the
importer’s examined sales to the total
entered value of those same sales, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
Upon issuance of the final results of this
administrative review, if any importerspecific assessment rates calculated in
the final results are above de minimis,
Commerce will issue instructions
directly to CBP to assess antidumping
duties on appropriate entries.
To determine whether the duty
assessment rates covering the period
were de minimis, in accordance with
the requirement set forth in 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we calculated importer(or customer-) specific ad valorem rates
by aggregating the amount of dumping
calculated for all U.S. sales to that
importer or customer and dividing this
amount by the total entered value of the
sales to that importer (or customer).
Where an importer (or customer)specific ad valorem rate is greater than
de minimis, and the respondent has

6 Based
on the record information, Commerce
preliminarily determined that Nagase and YGK are
affiliated within the meaning of section 771(33)(E)
of Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and
should be treated as a single entity pursuant to 19
CFR 351.401(f). See Preliminary Results. No party
commented on our preliminary determination with
respect to this issue, and we have received no new
information regarding this issue. Therefore, we
determine that Nagase and YGK are affiliated
within the meaning of section 771(33)(E) of the Act.
7 In these final results, Commerce applied the
assessment rate calculation method adopted in
Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the
Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and
Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101
(February 14, 2012).

reported reliable entered values, we will
apply the assessment rate to the entered
value of the importer’s/customer’s
entries during the POR.
Commerce intends to issue
appropriate assessment instructions
directly 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 of this notice for all
shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication of these final results, as
provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act:
(1) the cash deposit rate for respondents
noted above will be equal to the
weighted-average dumping margins
established in the final results of this
administrative review; (2) for
merchandise exported by producers or
exporters not covered in this
administrative review but covered in a
prior segment of the proceeding, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the original investigation, but
the producer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recently completed segment of this
proceeding for the producer of the
subject merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other producers or
exporters will continue to be 53.66
percent, the all-others rate established
in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.8 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)
to file a certificate regarding the
reimbursement of antidumping duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant
entries during the POR. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
did occur and the subsequent

to parties subject to 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/destruction of

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
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) and 19 CFR

should be treated as a single entity pursuant to 19 CFR 351.401(f).
See Preliminary Results. No party commented on our preliminary

Nagase and YGK are affiliated within the meaning of section

We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these final
results to parties within five days after public announcement or, if
there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of
publication of this notice, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rate
Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.\7\
For any individually examined respondents whose weighted-average
dumping margin is above de minimis (i.e., 0.5 percent), we calculated
importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's examined
sales to the total entered value of those same sales, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Upon issuance of the final results of this
administrative review, if any importer-specific assessment rates
calculated in the final results are above de minimis, Commerce will
issue instructions directly to CBP to assess antidumping duties on
appropriate entries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ In these final results, Commerce applied the assessment rate
calculation method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation
of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in
Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101
(February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
To determine whether the duty assessment rates covering the period
were de minimis, in accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we calculated importer- (or customer-) specific ad
valorem rates by aggregating the amount of dumping calculated for all
U.S. sales to that importer or customer and dividing this amount by the
total entered value of the sales to that importer (or customer). Where
an importer (or customer)-specific ad valorem rate is greater than de
minimis, and the respondent has reported reliable entered values, we
will apply the assessment rate to the entered value of the importer's/
customer's entries during the POR.
Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions
directly 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 of this notice for all shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
publication of these final results, as provided by section 751(a)(2) of
the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for respondents noted above will be

results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by
producers or exporters not covered in this administrative review but

cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to
