Final Results of Review

    Consistent with the Preliminary Results, we continue to determine 
that the sole respondent under review, Tian Mei, did not establish its 
eligibility for a separate rate and is part of the China-wide entity. 
No parties commented on this decision.

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), 
Commerce has determined, 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

[[Page 21094]]

review. No earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to 
liquidate any entries of subject merchandise from Tian Mei that entered 
the United States during the POR at the China-wide rate (i.e., 216.01 
percent). 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 upon 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register for all shipments of 
subject merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice, as 
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For previously 
investigated or reviewed China and non-China exporters which are not 
under review in this review, but which received a separate rate in a 
prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue 
to be the exporter's existing cash deposit rate; (2) for all China 
exporters of subject merchandise that do not have a separate rate, the 
cash deposit rate will be the China-wide entity rate (i.e., 216.01 
percent); and (3) for all non-China exporters of subject merchandise 
that do not have their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate 
applicable to the China exporter(s) that supplied that non-China 
exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, 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/and or countervailing 
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 Orders

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under the 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/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 Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative 
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5) and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).

    Dated: April 5, 2022.
Lisa W. Wang,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
