SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 9, 2024, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
Preliminary Results of the 2022-2023 administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on chlorinated isos from Spain.\1\ On July 22,
2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this administrative
proceeding by seven days.\2\ On October 31, 2024, Commerce extended the
deadline for the final results of review until January 10, 2025.\3\
Additionally, on December 9, 2024, Commerce tolled the deadline to
issue the final results in this administrative review by 90 days.\4\
Accordingly, the deadline for these final results is now April 10,
2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Chlorinated Isocyanurates from Spain: Preliminary
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2022-2023, 89 FR
56295 (July 9, 2024) (Preliminary Results), and accompanying
Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).
\2\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated July 22, 2024 (barcode
ACCESS code 4605486-01, dated July 29, 2024).
\3\ See Memorandum, ``Extension of Deadline for Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review,'' dated October 31, 2024.
\4\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated December 9, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary
Results; \5\ however, no interested party submitted comments.
Accordingly, the final results remain unchanged from the Preliminary
Results, and thus, there are no decision memoranda accompanying this
notice. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ See Chlorinated Isocyanurates from Spain: Notice of
Antidumping Duty Order, 70 FR 36562 (June 24, 2005) (Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The products covered by the Order are chlorinated isos from
China.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see
Preliminary Results PDM at 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
In the Preliminary Results, we calculated weighted-average dumping
margins for
Ercros S.A. (Ercros) and Electroquimica de Hernani, S.A. (EHER)
that are zero, and we did not calculate any margins which are not zero,
de minimis, or determined entirely on the basis of facts available.
Therefore, consistent with section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act, in the
Preliminary Results we applied to Industrias Quimicas Tamar S.L.
(Industrias Quimicas Tamar), the company not selected for individual
examination in this review, a margin of zero percent. We received no
comments with respect to our preliminary finding. Therefore, for these
final results, we continue to determine the following weighted-average
dumping margins for the period June 1, 2022, through May 31, 2023:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Manufacturer/exporter dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ercros S.A.................................................. 0.00
Electroquimica de Hernani, S.A.............................. 0.00
Industrias Quimicas Tamar S.L............................... 0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce will disclose to the parties in a proceeding the
calculations performed in connection with the final results 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 final
results in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Because Commerce received no comments and therefore, has not modified
its analysis or calculations from the Preliminary Results,\8\ there are
no new calculations to disclose for these final results of review in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Preliminary Results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined in these final results of this
review, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise
during the POR.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-specific
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount
of dumping calculated for examined sales to each importer to the total
entered value of those sales. Where an importer-specific assessment
rate is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1),
we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise that entered the United States
during the POR that were produced by each respondent for which it did
not know that its merchandise was destined to the United States,
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-
others rate (i.e., 24.83 percent),\9\ if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Order.
\10\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 for all
shipments of chlorinated isos from Spain entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this
notice in the Federal Register, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for the companies under review will
be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin listed in the ``Final
Results of Review'' section above (except, if the rate is zero or de
minimis, no cash deposit will be required); (2) for merchandise that
was exported by a
[[Page 8924]]
company that is not under review and the company has a company-specific
cash deposit rate from a completed segment of this proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific cash deposit rate
from a completed segment of the proceeding that is currently applicable
to the company; (3) if the exporter of the subject merchandise was not
covered by this review or a previously completed segment of this
proceeding, but the producer of the subject merchandise was covered,
then the cash deposit rate will be equal to the company-specific cash
deposit rate from a completed segment of this proceeding that is
currently applicable to the producer of the subject merchandise; and,
(4) if neither the exporter nor the producer of the subject merchandise
was covered by this review or a previously completed segment of this
proceeding, then the cash deposit rate will be 24.83 percent ad
valorem, the all-others rate established in the less than fair value
investigation.\11\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 the POR. 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
This notice also serves as a 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), 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 violation subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and
19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: January 28, 2025.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
