SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 6, 2023, Commerce published the preliminary results of
this administrative review in the Federal Register and invited
interested parties to comment.\1\ We received no comments from
interested parties on the Preliminary Results, and we have made no
changes from the Preliminary Results. Accordingly, no decision
memorandum accompanies this Federal Register notice. The Preliminary
Results are hereby adopted in these final results. Commerce conducted
this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Scope of the Order

complete description of the scope of the order, see the Preliminary

Final Results of Review
For the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, we
determine that the following net countervailable subsidies exist:

\2\ Commerce previously found, and continues to find, the
following companies to be cross-owned with Ningbo Master: Ningbo
Major Draft Beer Equipment Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Major Technology
Co., Ltd.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce intends to
instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to collect cash
deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts shown for
the companies listed above for shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
date of publication of the final results of this administrative review.
For all non-reviewed firms, we will instruct CBP to continue to collect
cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the all-others rate
or the most recent company-specific rate applicable to the company, as
appropriate. These cash deposit instructions, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Assessment Rates
Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(2), upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce
shall determine, and CBP shall assess, countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review.
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).
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
of the final results of an administrative review within five days of a
public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five
days of the date of publication of the notice of final results in the
Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However,
because we have made no changes to the Preliminary Results, there are
no calculations to disclose.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
an 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(a)(3). 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 these final results of this
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and
351.221(b)(5).
Dated: April 4, 2024.
