Changes Since the Preliminary Results

Based on our review of the comments received from interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, and for the reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we have revised the margin calculation for ( printed page 32353) Dezhou Kaihang. The analysis memorandum for Dezhou Kaihang contains further explanation of the margin calculations utilized in the final results.^[8]

Final Results of Review

The weighted average dumping margin for the final results of this review for the period February 1, 2013 through February 28, 2014 and for the following exporter/producer combination is as follows:

Disclosure

The Department intends to disclose calculations performed for these final results to the parties within five days of the date of publication of this notice, 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), the Department will determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review. The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review.

For assessment purposes, because Dezhou Kaihang's margin is zero, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the entry covered in this new shipper review without regard to antidumping duties.

On October 24, 2011, the Department announced a refinement to its assessment practice in non-market economy cases.^[9] Pursuant to this refinement in practice, for entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales databases submitted by Dezhou Kaihang during this review, the Department will instruct CBP to liquidate at the PRC-wide rate.

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this new shipper review for shipments of the subject merchandise from the PRC entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For subject merchandise produced by Shandong Fengyu Edible Fungus Co., Ltd. and exported by Dezhou Kaihang, no cash deposit rate will be required since the rate established in the Final Results of Review section of this notice is zero; (2) for subject merchandise exported by Dezhou Kaihang but not produced by Shandong Fengyu Edible Fungus Co., Ltd., the cash deposit rate will be that for the PRC-wide entity ( i.e., 308.33 percent); and (3) for subject merchandise produced by Shandong Fengyu Edible Fungus Co., Ltd. but not exported by Dezhou Kaihang, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to that exporter. These cash 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 prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

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), 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 sanctionable violation.

We are issuing and publishing these results and this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i) of the Act.
