service delivery for the healthcare 

industry, and its importance has 

increased during the current pandemic. 

Expanding the collection of data on 

telemedicine use will support 

measurement on changes in its adoption 

during this unprecedented public health 

emergency. SAS currently asks 

ambulatory health care providers 

(NAICS 621) about telemedicine 

services in relation to patient visits. 

This proposal will add a question about 

revenues from telemedicine services for 

hospitals (NAICS 622) and nursing 

homes (NAICS 623). Furthermore, to 

standardize content across industries 

and provide consistency for 

respondents, the current telemedicine 

question asked of the ambulatory health 

care providers would be revised to 

match the question being added to the 

other industries. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

Legal Authority: Title 13, United 

States Code, Sections 131 and 182

Methodology 

Commerce conducted this 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For 

each subsidy program found to be 

countervailable, Commerce finds that 

there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial 

contribution from a government or 

public entity that gives rise to a benefit 

to the recipient, and that the subsidy is 

specific.6 For a full description of the 

methodology underlying all of 

Commerce’s conclusions, including any 

determination that relied upon the use 

of adverse facts available pursuant to 

section 776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Final Results of Administrative Review 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(5), Commerce calculated a 

countervailable subsidy rate for the 

mandatory company respondents, JA 

Solar and Risen Energy. For the nonselected companies subject to this 

review,7 Commerce followed its 

practice, which is to base the subsidy 

rates on a weighted average of the 

subsidy rates calculated for those 

companies selected for individual 

examination, excluding rates of zero, de 

minimis, or rates determined entirely 

based on adverse facts available.8 To 

this end, Commerce calculated a rate by 

weight-averaging the calculated subsidy 

rates of JA Solar and Risen Energy using 

their publicly-available sales data for 

exports of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. 

Commerce finds the countervailable 

subsidy rates for the producers/ 

exporters under review to be as follows: 

Company 

Subsidy rate 

(ad valorem) 

(percent) 

JA Solar Technology Yangzhou, 

Co., Ltd. (JA Solar) 9 .................... 14.86 

Risen Energy Co., Ltd. (Risen Energy) 10 ......................................... 11.68 

Non-Selected Companies Under 

Review 11 ..................................... 12.67 

Disclosure 

Commerce will disclose to the parties 

in this proceeding the calculations 

performed for these final results within 

five days of the date of publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register.12

Assessment Rates 

Consistent with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), 

Commerce intends to issue assessment 

instructions to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) 15 days after the 

publication of these final results of 

review, to liquidate shipments of subject 

merchandise entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption, on or 

after January 1, 2017 through December 

31, 2017, at the ad valorem rates listed 

above. 

Cash Deposit Instructions 

In accordance with section 751(a)(1) 

of the Act, Commerce intends to instruct 

CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties in the 

amounts shown for each of the 

respective companies listed above. 

These cash deposits, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective order (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the 

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 sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

Commerce is issuing and publishing 

these results in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) is correcting its notice of 

the final results of the sixth 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty (AD) order on 

crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, 

whether or not assembled into modules 

(solar cells), from the People’s Republic 

of China (China). The period of review 

(POR) is December 1, 2017 through 

November 30, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 2, 2020, Commerce 

published the final results of the 2017– 

2018 administrative review of the AD 

order on solar cells from China in the 

Federal Register.1 On September 30, 

2020, one company claiming that it had 

no shipments under review contended 

that in the Final Results Commerce 

incorrectly identified it as ‘‘LERRI Solar 

Technology Co., Ltd’’ (LERRI) and that 

its correct name is ‘‘LONGi Solar 

Technology Co. Ltd. (a.k.a. LERRI Solar 

Technology Co., Ltd.).’’ 2 On October 6, 

2020, Trina 3 and Risen 4 submitted 

timely ministerial error comments.5

Specifically, Trina and Risen allege that 

we applied the incorrect amount in 

valuing their tempered glass inputs. 

Risen also alleges that we incorrectly 

valued its junction box inputs and 

incorrectly calculated the surrogate 

financial ratios. On October 12, 2020, 

SunPower Manufacturing Oregon LLC 

(the petitioner) submitted a timely 

rebuttal proposing an alternative to 

Trina and Risen’s suggest valuation of 

tempered glass, arguing that there was 

no ministerial error in the valuation of 

Risen junction boxes, and asserting that 

labor was omitted from the calculation 

of surrogate financial ratios.6

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, 

and modules, laminates, and panels, 

consisting of crystalline silicon 

photovoltaic cells, whether or not 

partially or fully assembled into other 

products, including, but not limited to, 

modules, laminates, panels and building
