Analysis of Comments Received
Commerce addressed the issues raised in parties' comments on
Commerce's notice of intent to rescind this review in the accompanying
Issues and Decision Memorandum. The issues are identified in the
appendix to this notice.
Rescission of Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to
rescind an administrative review of a CVD order where it concludes
there were no suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR
for an exporter or producer. Normally, upon completion of an
administrative review, the suspended entries are liquidated at the CVD
assessment rate(s) based on the final results for the review period.
Therefore, for an administrative review to be conducted, there must be
a suspended entry that Commerce can instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to liquidate at the calculated CVD assessment rate for the
review period. As explained in detail in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, Tanghenam has no suspended entries of subject merchandise
during the POR. Accordingly, in the absence of suspended entries of
subject merchandise during the POR, we are rescinding this
administrative review in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
Cash Deposit Requirements
As Commerce is rescinding this administrative review, cash deposit
rates will not change. Accordingly, the current cash deposit
requirements shall remain in effect until further notice.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries of subject merchandise. Countervailing duties shall
be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit rate of estimated
countervailable duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal
from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to
CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this
rescission notice in the Federal Register.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice 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(a)(3), which continues to govern business proprietary
information in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction of the APO materials, or
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
comply with regulations and terms of an APO is a violation, which is
subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: May 28, 2026.
Scot Fullerton,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Operations.
