SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 1, 2024, Commerce published the preliminary results of the
2022-2023 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on steel
threaded rod from China in the Federal Register and invited interested
parties to comment.\1\ We received no comments from interested parties
on the Preliminary Results and have made no changes to 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(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 and Partial
Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2022-2023, 89
FR 35069 (May 1, 2024) (Preliminary Results), and accompanying
Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).

Scope of the Order <SUP>2</SUP>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The merchandise covered by the Order is alloy and certain carbon
steel threaded rod from China. For a complete description of the scope
of the order, see the Preliminary Results.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Preliminary Results PDM at 2-3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
China-Wide Entity
As stated in the Preliminary Results, because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity in this review, the China-wide entity
is not under review and the China-wide entity's rate, i.e., 48.91
percent, is not subject to change.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Preliminary Results, 89 FR at 35071.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin
exists for the period April 1, 2022, through March 31, 2023, for the
mandatory respondent:

Weighted-
average
Exporter dumping

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.
Assessment Rates
Consistent with 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 covered this review. Because Ningbo
Dongxin's weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis,
i.e., less than 0.50 percent, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
entries at the importer-specific assessment rate for antidumping duties
calculated based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated
for each importer's examined sales and the total entered value of those
same sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\5\ These final
results of administrative review shall be the basis for the assessment
of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by these final
results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties,
where applicable.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping
Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8102-03 (February 14,
2012).
\6\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of publication of these final results of
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 upon
publication in the Federal Register of this notice of final results of
administrative review for all shipments of steel threaded rod from
China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication date of these final results of review, as provided in
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) for the subject merchandise
exported by the company listed above that has a separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of this administrative review, i.e.,
35.10 percent; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and
non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise not listed above 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, i.e., 48.91 percent; \7\ 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 cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain
in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See Order, 85 FR at 19930, adjusted for export subsidies as
outlined in Alloy and Certain Carbon Steel Threaded Rod from the
People's Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review; 2021-2022, 88 FR 18117 (March 27, 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 this review period.
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
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. 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
[[Page 52028]]
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
