Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review
As noted above, Commerce received no comments regarding its
Preliminary Results. Accordingly, Commerce made no changes to its
Preliminary Results and no decision memorandum accompanies this Federal
Register notice.
For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, Commerce
continues to find that Zhangzhou XMB is the successor-in-interest to
Zhangzhou XYM for purposes of the Order. As a result of this
determination and consistent with established practice, we find that
the combination AD cash deposit rate (i.e., zero percent) for subject
merchandise exported by Golden Well and produced by Zhangzhou XYM
should be applied to subject merchandise exported by Golden Well and
produced by Zhangzhou XMB. Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection to require, for all subject merchandise
exported by Golden Well and produced by Zhangzhou XMB that is entered,
or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
publication date of this notice in the Federal Register, a zero percent
AD cash deposit, which is the current AD cash deposit rate for subject
merchandise exported by Golden Well and produced by Zhangzhou XYM.\8\
This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further
notice.
