Final Determination of No Shipments

    We preliminarily found that Danyang City Ou Di Ma Tools Co., Ltd., 
Danyang Hantronic Import & Export Co., Ltd., Danyang Like Tools 
Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Danyang Tsunda Diamond Tools Co., Ltd., 
Jiangsu Huachang Tools Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Inter-China 
Group Corporation, Orient Gain International Limited, Qingdao Shinhan 
Diamond Industrial Co., Ltd., and Sino Tools Co., Ltd., which have been 
eligible for separate rates in previous segments of the proceeding and 
are subject to this review, did not have any reviewable entries of 
subject merchandise during the POR.\4\ After the Preliminary Results, 
we received no comments or additional information with respect to these 
nine companies. Therefore, for the final results, we continue to find 
that these nine companies did not have any reviewable entries of 
subject merchandise during the POR. Consistent with our practice, we 
will issue appropriate instructions to U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) based on our final results.

to receive separate rates in this review.\5\ We made no changes to 
these determinations for the final results.

Assessment

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), 
Commerce shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 
all appropriate entries covered by this review.\9\ For all respondents 
eligible for a separate rate, we will instruct CBP to apply an 
antidumping duty assessment rate of 82.05 percent to all entries of 
subject merchandise that entered the United States during the POR.\10\ 
For all other companies, we will instruct CBP to apply the antidumping 
duty assessment rate of the China-wide entity, 82.05 percent, to all 
entries of subject merchandise exported by these companies.\11\ For the 
nine companies that we determined had no reviewable entries of the 
subject merchandise in this review period, any suspended entries that 
entered under that exporter's case number (i.e., at that exporter's 
rate) will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.

Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Changed 
Circumstances Review, 82 FR 60177 (December 19, 2017). In this

Huifeng New Material Technology Co., Ltd. is the successor-in-
interest to Chengdu Huifeng Diamond Tools Co., Ltd., for which we 
initiated this administrative review.
    \7\ Jiangsu Fengtai Diamond Tool Manufacture Co., Ltd., Jiangsu 
Fengtai Tools Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Fengtai Sawing Industry Co., 
Ltd., comprise the Jiangsu Fengtai Single Entity. See Preliminary 
Results, 82 FR at 57585, n.9, and accompanying Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum at 2, n.5.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this administrative review for all 
shipments of the subject merchandise from China 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) For subject 
merchandise exported by the companies listed above that have separate 
rates, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in these 
final results of review for each exporter as listed above; (2) for 
previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters 
not listed above that received a separate rate in a prior segment of 
this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the 
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; (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 deposit requirements shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

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 POR. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement 
of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of 
doubled antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to 
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). 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.
    These final results of review are issued and published in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: April 16, 2018.
Gary Taverman,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
