companies made sales of subject merchandise from the People's Republic 
of China (China) at less than normal value during the period of review 
(POR) April 1, 2020, through March 31, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 31, 2021, Commerce published the 
Preliminary Results and invited interested parties to comment.\1\ We 
received no comments from interested parties on the Preliminary 
Results. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance 
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Preliminary Results of the Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review and Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2020-2021, 86 FR 48666 (August 31, 2021) 
(Preliminary Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum (PDM).

Scope of the Order <SUP>2</SUP>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks from the People's Republic 
of China: Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair 
Value and Antidumping Duty Order, 78 FR 21592 (April 11, 2013) 
(Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The products covered by the Order include drawn stainless steel 
sinks. Imports of subject merchandise are currently classified under 
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 
7324.10.0000 and 7324.10.0010.

[[Page 64184]]

Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs 
purposes, the written description of the scope of the order is 
dispositive.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see 
Preliminary Results PDM at 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    We received no comments and are making no changes from the 
Preliminary Results. Therefore, as a result of this review, we continue 
to determine that Jiangmen New Star Hi-Tech Enterprise Ltd. (New Star) 
and KaiPing Dawn Plumbing Products, Inc. (KaiPing) have not established 
their eligibility for a separate rate and are part of the China-wide 
entity.

Assessment Rates

    Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in 
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). 
Because we determined that KaiPing and New Star were not eligible for a 
separate rate and are part of the China-wide entity, we will instruct 
CBP to apply the China-wide entity rate, an ad valorem assessment rate 
of 76.45 percent,\4\ to all entries of subject merchandise during the 
POR that were produced and/or exported by KaiPing and New Star.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The China-wide rate determined in the investigation was 
76.53 percent. See Order. This rate was adjusted for export 
subsidies and estimated domestic subsidy pass through to determine 
the cash deposit rate (76.45 percent) collected for companies in the 
China-wide entity. See explanation in Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks 
from the People's Republic of China: Investigation, Final 
Determination, 78 FR 13019, 13025 (February 26, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 for all 
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results 
of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 
the Act: (1) For previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-
Chinese exporters not listed above that have separate rates, the cash 
deposit rate will continue to be equal to the exporter-specific 
weighted-average dumping margin published of the most recently-
completed segment of this proceeding; (2) for all Chinese exporters of 
subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a 
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate for China-wide 
entity, 76.45 percent; \5\ and (3) for all exporters of subject 
merchandise which are not located in China and which are not eligible 
for a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable 
to Chinese exporter(s) that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a 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 Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written 
notification of return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to 
judicial 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) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 
351.221(b)(5).

    Dated: November 10, 2021.
Ryan Majerus,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the 
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance.
