Final Results of Review
Consistent with the Preliminary Results, we continue to determine
that the sole respondent under review, Tian Mei, did not establish its
eligibility for a separate rate and is part of the China-wide entity.
No parties commented on this decision.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b),
Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the final results of this
[[Page 21094]]
review. No earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to
liquidate any entries of subject merchandise from Tian Mei that entered
the United States during the POR at the China-wide rate (i.e., 216.01
percent). 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 in the Federal Register for all shipments of
subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For previously
investigated or reviewed China and non-China exporters which are not
under review in this review, but which received a separate rate in a
prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue
to be the exporter's existing cash deposit rate; (2) for all China
exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate rate, the
cash deposit rate will be the China-wide entity rate (i.e., 216.01
percent); and (3) for all non-China exporters of subject merchandise
that do not have their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate
applicable to the China exporter(s) that supplied that non-China
exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties/and or countervailing
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 occurred and the
subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to
an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the 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 APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5) and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Dated: April 5, 2022.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
