deadlines in administrative proceedings by an additional 21 days.\3\

2026.

Analysis of Comments Received

    The issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs submitted by 
interested parties in this administrative review are addressed in the 
Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues addressed in the 
Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as the 
Appendix.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and our analysis of the comments 
received from interested parties regarding the Preliminary Results, 
Commerce made certain changes to the preliminary weighted-average 
dumping margin calculations for mandatory respondents Heze Huayi 
Chemical Co. Ltd. and Juancheng Kangtai Chemical Co. Ltd. for the final 
results. For further details on the changes made since the Preliminary 
Results, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

China-Wide Entity

    As noted in the Preliminary Results, in accordance with Commerce's 
policy, the China-wide entity is not under review because no party 
specifically requested, and Commerce did not self-initiate, a review of 
the China-wide entity.\6\ Thus, the China-wide entity's dumping margin, 
i.e., 285.63 percent, is not subject to change as a result of this 
administrative review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Preliminary Results at 7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Administrative Review

    Commerce determines the following estimated weighted-average 
dumping margins for the companies listed below for the period June 1, 
2023, through May 31, 2024:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                               Weighted-
                                                                average
                      Producer/exporter                         dumping
                                                                margin
                                                               (percent)

Heze Huayi Chemical Co. Ltd.................................       39.87
Juancheng Kangtai Chemical Co. Ltd..........................       30.24
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these 
final results of review within five days of the date of publication of 
this notice in the Federal Register,in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce shall determine, and 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance 
with the final results of this review. For any individually examined 
respondents whose weighted-average dumping margin is above de minimis, 
we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based 
on the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for 
the examined sales to the total entered value of the examined sales to 
that importer, and we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on 
all appropriate entries covered by this. Where either the respondent's 
weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the 
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific assessment 
rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the 
appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
    Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier 
than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this 
administrative 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 subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results 
of this administrative review in the Federal Register, as provided for 
by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for 
companies subject to this review will be the rates established in these 
final results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by producers 
or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment 
of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the 
company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) for all 
China exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate 
rate, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average 
dumping margin assigned to the China-wide entity (i.e. 285.63 percent); 
(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.

Administrative Protective Order (APO)

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
an APO of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of 
proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.305, 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 which is subject to 
sanction.

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 has occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This determination is issued and published pursuant to sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221.

    Dated: March 6, 2026.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the 
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance.
