Appendix I—Scope of the Investigation 

The merchandise covered by this 

investigation consists of twist ties, which are 

thin, bendable ties for closing containers, 

such as bags, bundle items, or identifying 

objects. A twist tie in most circumstances is 

comprised of one or more metal wires 

encased in a covering material, which allows 

the tie to retain its shape and bind against 

itself. However, it is possible to make a twist 

tie with plastic and no metal wires. The 

metal wire that is generally used in a twist 

tie is stainless or galvanized steel and 

typically measures between the gauges of 19 

(.0410′ diameter) and 31 (.0132′) (American 

Standard Wire Gauge). A twist tie usually has 

a width between .075′ and 1′ in the crossmachine direction (width of the tie— 

measurement perpendicular with the wire); a 

thickness between .015′ and .045′ over the 

wire; and a thickness between .002′ and .020′ 

in areas without wire. The scope includes an 

all-plastic twist tie containing a plastic core 

as well as a plastic covering (the wing) over 

the core, just like paper and/or plastic in a 

metal tie. An all-plastic twist tie (without 

metal wire) would be of the same 

measurements as a twist tie containing one 

or more metal wires. Twist ties are 

commonly available individually in pre-cut 

lengths (‘‘singles’’), wound in large spools to 

be cut later by machine or hand, or in 

perforated sheets of spooled or single twist 

ties that are later slit by machine or by hand 

(‘‘gangs’’). 

The covering material of a twist tie may be 

paper (metallic or plain), or plastic, and can 

be dyed in a variety of colors with or without 

printing. A twist tie may have the same 

covering material on both sides or one side 

of paper and one side of plastic. When 

comprised of two sides of paper, the paper 

material is bound together with an adhesive 

or plastic. A twist tie may also have a tag or 

label attached to it or a pre-applied adhesive 

attached to it. 

Excluded from the scope of the 

investigation are twist ties packaged with 

bags for sale together where the quantity of 

twist ties does not exceed twice the number 

of bags in each package. Also excluded are 

twists ties that constitute part of the 

packaging of the imported product, for 

example, merchandise anchored/secured to a 

backing with twist ties in the retail package 

or a bag of bread that is closed with a twist 

tie. 

Twist ties are imported into the United 

States under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 

8309.90.0000 and 5609.00.3000. Subject 

merchandise may also enter under HTSUS 

subheadings 3920.51.5000, 3923.90.0080, 

3926.90.9990, 4811.59.6000, 4821.10.2000, 

4821.10.4000, 4821.90.2000, 4821.90.4000, 

and 4823.90.8600. These HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for reference only.

investigation is dispositive.

18 In the second administrative review of the 

Order, Commerce determined that it would 

calculate per-unit weighted-average dumping 

margins and assessment rates for all future reviews. 

See Certain Activated Carbon from the People’s 

Republic of China: Final Results and Partial 

Rescission of Second Antidumping Duty

accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum 

(IDM) at Comment 3. 

19This is the rate applicable to the non-examined 

separate rate respondents, as discussed above. 

20 In the third administrative review of the Order, 

Commerce found that Jacobi Carbons AB, Tianjin 

Jacobi International Trading Co. Ltd., and Jacobi 

Carbons Industry (Tianjin) should be treated as a 

single entity, and because there were no facts 

presented on the record of this review which would 

call into question our prior finding, we continue to 

treat these companies as part of a single entity for 

this administrative review, pursuant to sections 

771(33)(E), (F), and (G) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.401(f). See Certain Activated Carbon from the

Memorandum is available to parties at

versions of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum are identical in content. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our review of the record and 

comments received from interested 

parties regarding our Preliminary 

Results, we made certain revisions to 

the margin calculations for Carbon 

Activated and Datong Juqiang,6 and 

consequently, to the rate assigned to the 

non-examined, separate rate 

respondents.7

Rescission of Administrative Review, in 

Part 

As noted in the Preliminary Results, 

in the Initiation Notice,8 we included 

Jacobi Carbons, Inc. among the 

companies for which a review was 

requested. The record of this review 

demonstrates that Jacobi Carbons, Inc. is 

a U.S. importer of Jacobi.9,10 Therefore, 

for these final results, we are rescinding 

the review with respect to Jacobi 

Carbons, Inc. 

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

preliminarily determined that Ningxia 

Guanghua Cherishmet Activated Carbon 

Co., Ltd.; Jilin Bright Future Chemicals 

Co., Ltd.; Shanxi Dapu International 

Trade Co., Ltd.; and Tianjin Channel 

Filters Co., Ltd. had no shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR.11 We received no 

arguments identifying information that 

contradicts this determination. 

Therefore, we continue to find that 

these companies had no shipments of 

subject merchandise during the POR 

and will issue appropriate liquidation 

instructions that are consistent with our 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ clarification for 

these final results.12

Separate Rate Respondents 

In our Preliminary Results, we 

determined that Carbon Activated, 

Datong Juqiang, and nine other 

companies demonstrated their eligibility 

for a separate rate.13 We received no 

comments or arguments since the 

issuance of the Preliminary Results that 

provide a basis for reconsideration of 

these determinations. Therefore, for 

these final results, we continue to find 

that the eleven companies listed in the 

table in the ‘‘Final Results of the 

Review’’ section of this notice are 

eligible for a separate rate. 

Rate for Non-Examined Separate Rate 

Respondents 

In the Preliminary Results,14 and 

consistent with Commerce’s practice,15

we assigned the non-examined, separate 

rate companies a rate equal to the 

weighted average of the calculated 

weighted-average dumping margins for 

the mandatory respondents that are not 

zero, de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 

percent), or based entirely on facts 

available, weighted by the total U.S. 

sales quantities from the public version 

of the submissions from the mandatory 

respondents.16 No parties commented 

on the methodology for calculating this 

separate rate. For the final results, we 

continue to apply this methodology, as 

it is consistent with the intent of, and 

our use of, section 735(c)(5)(A) of the 

Act.17

Final Results of the Review 

For the companies subject to this 

review, which established their 

eligibility for a separate rate, Commerce 

determines that the following weightedaverage dumping margins exist for the 

POR from April 1, 2018, through March 

31, 2019: 

Producers/exporters 

Weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(USD/ 

kg) 18

Carbon Activated Tianjin Co., Ltd ......... 1.83 

Datong Juqiang Activated Carbon Co., 

Ltd ...................................................... 0.38 

Review-Specific Average Rate Applicable to the 

Following Companies 19

Beijing Pacific Activated Carbon Products Co., Ltd ...................................... 0.65 

Jacobi Carbons AB20 ............................ 0.65 

Ningxia Huahui Activated Carbon Co., 

Ltd ...................................................... 0.65 

Ningxia Mineral & Chemical Limited ..... 0.65 

Shanxi Sincere Industrial Co., Ltd ........ 0.65 

Shanxi Tianxi Purification Filter Co., Ltd 0.65 

Datong Municipal Yunguang Activated 

Carbon Co., Ltd ................................. 0.65 

Shanxi Industry Technology Trading 

Co., Ltd .............................................. 0.65 

Tancarb Activated Carbon Co., Ltd ...... 0.65 

In the Preliminary Results, Commerce 

found that 63 companies for which a 

review was requested 21 did not 

establish eligibility for a separate rate 

because they did not file a separate rate 

application or a separate rate 

certification, as appropriate.22 No 

interested party commented on 

Commerce’s preliminary determination 

with respect to these 63 companies, 

identified at Appendix II to this notice. 

Therefore, for these final results we 

determine these companies to be part of 

the China-wide entity. Because no party 

requested a review of the China-wide 

entity, and Commerce no longer 

considers the China-wide entity as an

exporter conditionally subject to 

administrative reviews,23 we did not 

conduct a review of the China-wide 

entity. Thus, the weighted-average 

dumping margin for the China-wide 

entity (i.e., 2.42 USD/kg) 24 is not subject 

to change as a result of this review. 

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 covered by this review. 

Consistent with its recent notice,25

Commerce intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 

days after the date of publication of the 

final results of this review in the 

Federal Register. 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). 

For each individually-examined 

respondent in this review which has a 

final weighted-average dumping margin 

that is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less 

than 0.5 percent), we will calculate 

importer- (or customer-) specific perunit duty assessment rates based on the 

ratio of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for the examined sales to that 

importer (or customer) to the total 

quantity associated with those sales, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).26

We will also calculate (estimated) ad 

valorem importer-specific assessment 

rates with which to determine whether 

the per-unit assessment rates are de 

minimis.27 Where either the 

respondent’s weighted-average dumping 

margin is zero or de minimis, or an 

importer- (or customer-) specific 

assessment rate is zero or de minimis, 

we will instruct CBP to liquidate the 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties.28

For the respondents which were not 

selected for individual examination in 

this administrative review and which 

qualified for a separate rate, the 

assessment rate will be equal to the rate 

assigned to them for the final results 

(i.e., 0.65 USD/kg). For the companies 

identified as part of the China-wide 

entity, we will instruct CBP to apply a 

per-unit assessment rate of 2.42 USD/kg 

to all entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR which were produced or 

exported by those companies. Pursuant 

to a refinement in our non-market 

economy practice, for sales that were 

not reported in the U.S. sales data 

submitted by companies individually 

examined during this review, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate entries 

associated with those sales at the rate 

for the China-wide entity. Furthermore, 

where we found that an exporter under 

review had no shipments of the subject 

merchandise, any suspended entries 

that entered under that exporter’s case 

number (i.e., at that exporter’s cash 

deposit rate) will be liquidated at the 

rate for the China-wide entity.29

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following per-unit 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 Carbon 

Activated, Datong Juqiang, and the nonexamined separate rate respondents, the 

cash deposit rate will be equal to their 

weighted-average dumping margins 

established in the final results of this 

review; (2) for previously investigated or 

reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese 

exporters not listed above that have 

separate rates, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the exporter-specific rate 

published for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding in 

which they were reviewed; (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 equal to the 

weighted-average dumping margin for 

the China-wide entity (i.e., 2.42 USD/ 

kg); and (4) for all non-Chinese 

exporters of subject merchandise which 

have not received their own separate 

rate, the cash deposit rate will be the 

rate applicable to the Chinese exporters 

that supplied those non-Chinese 

exporters. These per-unit cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed to parties in this proceeding 

within five days of the date of 

publication of this notice in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Notification to Importers Regarding the 

Reimbursement of Duties 

This notice also 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 

antidumping duties has occurred and 

the subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Order (APO) 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to 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 

violation subject to sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

final results of administrative review 

and notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.
