SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 7, 2021, Commerce published the Initiation and 
Preliminary Results,\1\ finding that Jacobi should be collapsed with 
JAM, and the Jacobi single entity, inclusive of JAM, should be assigned 
the same AD cash deposit rate assigned to Jacobi for purposes of 
determining AD liability in this proceeding.\2\ In the Initiation and 
Preliminary Results, we provided all interested parties with an 
opportunity to comment and request a public hearing regarding our 
preliminary finding.\3\ We received no comments or requests for a

    The merchandise covered by the scope of the Order is activated 
carbon. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review

    For the reasons stated in the Initiation and Preliminary Results, 
and because we received no comments from interested parties to the 
contrary, Commerce continues to find that Jacobi should be collapsed 
with JAM, and that the Jacobi single entity, inclusive of JAM, should 
be assigned the same AD cash deposit rate assigned to Jacobi for 
purposes of determining AD liability in this proceeding.\5\ As a result 
of this determination and consistent with established practice, we find 
that JAM should receive the cash deposit rate previously assigned to 
Jacobi in the most recently completed review of the Order. The cash 
deposit rate assigned to Jacobi in the most recently completed review 
was $0.65 per kilogram.\6\ Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments 
of subject merchandise exported by JAM and entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this 
notice in the Federal Register at $0.65 per kilogram, which is the 
current AD cash deposit rate for Jacobi. This cash deposit requirement 
shall remain in effect until further notice.
