SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 9, 2024, Commerce published the preliminary results in
this administrative review in the Federal Register.\1\ Although we
provided interested parties with an opportunity to comment on the
Preliminary Results, no interested party submitted comments.
Accordingly, the final results remain unchanged from the Preliminary
Results, and thus, there is no decision memorandum accompanying this
notice. Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Final Results of the Review
For these final results, we determine that the following estimated
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period December 1, 2021,
through November 30, 2022:

Producer and/or exporter dumping margin

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to parties in the proceeding the
calculations performed in connection with the final results of review
within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public
announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice
of the final results in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b). However, because we made no changes from the Preliminary
Results, there are no calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S.
[[Page 77819]]
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on
all appropriate entries covered by this review. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), because Al Jazeera Steel Products Co. SAOG (Al Jazeera)
reported the entered value for all of its U.S. sales, we calculated
importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of those same sales.
Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' will apply to entries of
subject merchandise during the POR produced by Al Jazeera for which the
company did not know that the merchandise it sold to an intermediary
(e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the
United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate
such entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of these final results of
administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
the cash deposit rate for Al Jazeera will be equal to the weighted-
average dumping margin established in these final results of this
administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by companies not
covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published in the completed segment for the most recent
period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or
the less-than-fair-value (LFTV) investigation, but the producer is,
then the cash deposit rate will be the cash deposit rate established
for the most recently completed segment for the producer of the subject
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers and
exporters will continue to be the all-others rate (i.e., 7.36
percent).\5\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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 duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to an
APO of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary
information disclosed under 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 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 sanctionable
violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is being issued and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: September 19, 2024.
