SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 21, 2020, Commerce published in the Federal Register the 
preliminary results of the 2021-2022 administrative review \1\ of the 
antidumping duty order on threaded rod from China.\2\ We invited 
interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. No interested 
parties submitted comments. Accordingly, Commerce made no changes to 
the Preliminary Results. Commerce conducted this administrative review 
in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Alloy and Certain Carbon Steel Threaded Rod from the 
People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review and Rescission of Administrative Review, in 
Part; 2021-2022, 87 FR 78640 (December 22, 2022) (Preliminary 
Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).
    \2\ See Alloy and Certain Carbon Steel Threaded Rod from the 
People's Republic of China: Antidumping Duty Order, 85 FR 19929 
(April 9, 2020) (Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The products covered by this Order are threaded rod. A full 
description of the scope of the Order is provided in the Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Preliminary Results PDM.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Administrative Review

    We received no comments and made no changes to the Preliminary 
Results. We continue to find that the sole mandatory respondent, Ningbo 
Dongxin High-Strength Nut Co., Ltd. (Ningbo Dongxin), is not eligible 
for a separate rate and is, thus, part of the China-wide entity. In 
this administrative review, no party requested a review of the China-
wide entity, and Commerce did not self-initiate a review of the China-
wide entity. Because no review of the China-wide entity is being 
conducted, the China-wide entity rate is not subject to change as a 
result of this review. The

[[Page 18118]]

rate previously established for the China-wide entity is 48.91 
percent.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Order. We adjusted the dumping margin of 59.45 percent 
to account for subsidy offsets calculated in the companion 
countervailing duty proceeding.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 review. We 
intend to instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment rate of 48.91 
percent (i.e., the China-wide entity rate), to all entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR which were exported by Ningbo Dongxin.
    Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier 
than 35 days after the date of publication of these 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 from China 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 Ningbo Dongxin, that has not been 
found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be 
that for the China-wide entity; (2) for previously investigated or 
reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that received a separate 
rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (3) 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 that for the 
China-wide entity; and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject 
merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit 
rate will be the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter 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 final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping 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 and/or countervailing duties occurred 
and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties, and/or an 
increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of the 
countervailing duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written 
notification of the return or 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 subject 
to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

    Commerce is issuing and publishing the final results of this review 
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 
351.221(b)(5).

    Dated: March 20, 2023.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
