SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the Preliminary 

Results of the administrative review of 

the antidumping duty order on June 24, 

2020.1 The administrative review covers 

two mandatory respondents: (1) Jiangsu 

Zhongji Lamination Materials Co., (HK) 

Ltd.; Jiangsu Zhongji Lamination 

Materials Stock Co., Ltd.; Jiangsu 

Zhongji Lamination Materials Co., Ltd.; 

and Jiangsu Huafeng Aluminum 

Industry Co., Ltd. (collectively, 

Zhongji),2 and (2) Xiamen Xiashun 

Aluminum Foil Co., Ltd. (Xiashun). The 

administrative review also covers ten 

other companies that were not selected 

for individual examination. 

On July 21, 2020, Commerce tolled all 

deadlines for administrative reviews by 

60 days.3 On December 15, 2020, 

Commerce extended the deadline for the 

final results of this administrative 

review by 60 days.4 The deadline for the 

final results of this review is now 

February 19, 2021. For a complete 

description of the events that occurred 

since the Preliminary Results, see the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum.5

Scope of the Order 6

The merchandise covered by this 

administrative review is aluminum foil 

from China. For a full description of the 

scope, see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in interested parties’ 

briefs are addressed in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

issues raised by interested parties and to 

which we responded in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum is provided in 

the Appendix to this notice. The Issues 

and Decision Memorandum is a public 

document and is on file electronically 

via Enforcement and Compliance’s 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Centralized Electronic Service System 

(ACCESS). ACCESS is available to 

registered users at http://

access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete 

version of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum can be accessed directly 

at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/ 

index.html. The signed and the 

electronic versions of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum are identical in 

content. 

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, we found 

no evidence calling into question the 

no-shipment claims of Jiangsu 

Dingsheng New Materials Joint-Stock 

Co., Ltd. No parties commented on this 

preliminary decision. For the final 

results of this review, we continue to 

find that Jiangsu Dingsheng New 

Materials Joint-Stock Co., Ltd. had no 

shipments of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on a review of the record and 

comments received from interested 

parties, Commerce has made two 

changes to the Preliminary Results. 

First, for Zhongji, we have revised our 

calculation of ash/dross to account for 

the metal content of the ash/dross. 

Second, we have revised our calculation 

of an adverse inference with regard to 

Xiashun. For a more detailed discussion 

of these changes, see the Final Analysis 

Memoranda for Zhongji and Xiashun.7

Separate Rate 

In the Preliminary Results, we found 

that information placed on the record by 

Zhongji; Xiashun; Alcha International 

Holdings Limited; Dingsheng 

Aluminum Industries Hong Kong 

Trading Co.; Granges Aluminum 

(Shanghai) Co., Ltd; Hangzhou 

Dingsheng Import & Export Co., Ltd.; 

Hunan Suntown Marketing Limited;

Co.; SNTO International Trade Limited; 

and Suzhou Manakin Aluminum 

Processing Technology Co., Ltd. 

demonstrates that these entities are 

entitled to separate rate status.8 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 companies 

listed in the table for the ‘‘final results 

of the review’’ section of this notice are 

eligible for a separate rate. For a more 

detailed discussion of this issue, see 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Final Results of the Review 

Commerce determines that the 

following weighted-average dumping 

margins exist for the period November 

2, 2017, through March 31, 2019: 

Exporter 

Weightedaverage margin 

(percent) 

Jiangsu Zhongji Lamination Materials Co., (HK) Ltd./Jiangsu Zhongji Lamination Materials Stock Co., Ltd./Jiangsu Zhongji 

Lamination Materials Co., Ltd./Jiangsu Huafeng Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd ............................................................................ 23.62 

Xiamen Xiashun Aluminum Foil Co., Ltd ........................................................................................................................................ 47.57 

Alcha International Holdings Limited ............................................................................................................................................... 35.60

SNTO International Trade Limited ................................................................................................................................................... 35.60 

Suzhou Manakin Aluminum Processing Technology Co., Ltd ........................................................................................................ 35.60 

For the respondents which are eligible 

for a separate rate, but were not selected 

for individual examination in this 

administrative review, we have assigned 

a margin based on the average of the 

weighted average dumping margins 

calculated for Zhongji and Xiashun, 

consistent with section 735(c)(3)(A) of 

the Act. 

China-Wide Entity 

Commerce’s policy regarding 

conditional review of the China-wide 

entity applies to this administrative 

review.9 Under this policy, the Chinawide entity will not be under review 

unless a party specifically requests, or 

Commerce self-initiates, a review of the 

entity. Because no party requested a 

review of the China-wide entity in this 

review, the entity is not under review 

and the entity’s rate (i.e., 105.80 

percent) is not subject to change.10

Assessment Rates 

Commerce shall determine, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.212(b). In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1), we have calculated 

importer-specific assessment rates for 

merchandise subject to this review. We 

calculated importer (or customer)- 

specific assessment rates for 

merchandise subject to this review on a 

per-unit (i.e., per-kilogram) basis. 

Specifically, we calculated a per-unit 

assessment rate by aggregating the 

antidumping duties due for all U.S. 

sales to that importer (or customer) and 

divided this amount by the total 

quantity sold to that importer (or 

customer) during the POR. To determine 

whether the duty assessment rates are 

de minimis, in accordance with the 

requirement set forth in 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(2), we calculate importer- (or 

customer-) specific ad valorem ratios 

based on the estimated entered value. If 

an importer (or customer)-specific 

assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less 

than 0.50 percent), Commerce will 

instruct CBP to liquidate that importer’s 

(or customer’s) entries of subject 

merchandise without regard to 

antidumping duties. 

Consistent with its recent notice,11

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). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for 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 Xiashun 

and Zhongji and for each of the 10 

companies identified above as eligible 

for a separate rate, the cash deposit rate 

will be equal to the weighted-average 

dumping margin established in the final 

results of this review; (2) for previously 

investigated or reviewed Chinese and 

non-Chinese exporters not listed above 

that have received a separate rate in a 

prior segment of this proceeding, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

existing exporter-specific cash deposit 

rate published for the completed 

segment of the most recent period; (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 the rate for the 

China-wide entity; and (4) for all nonChinese exporters of subject 

merchandise which have not received 

their own separate rate, the cash deposit 

rate will be the rate applicable to the 

Chinese exporter that supplied that nonChinese exporter. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice.

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 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

Melamine From the People’s Republic 

of China: Final Results of the 

Expedited Five-Year Sunset Review of 

the Countervailing Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of this sunset 

review, the Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) finds that revoking the 

countervailing duty (CVD) order on 

melamine from the People’s Republic of 

China (China) would likely lead to 

continuation or recurrence of 

countervailable subsidies at the levels 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of 

Review’’ section of this notice. 

DATES: Applicable February 25, 2021.

(202) 482–2181. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 28, 2015, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

CVD Order on melamine from China.1

On November 3, 2020, Commerce 

published the notice of initiation of the 

first sunset review of the Order, 

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).2 On 

November 10, 2020, Commerce received 

a notice of intent to participate from 

Cornerstone Chemical Company 

(Cornerstone, or domestic interested 

party), within the deadline specified in 

19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).3 Cornerstone 

claimed interested party status under 

section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as a 

domestic producer engaged in the 

production of melamine in the United 

States. 

On November 25, 2020, Commerce 

received a substantive response from the 

domestic interested party within the 30- 

day deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(i).4 We received no 

substantive response from any other 

domestic or interested parties in this 

proceeding and no hearing was 

requested. 

On December 23, 2020, Commerce 

notified the U.S. International Trade 

Commission that it did not receive an 

adequate substantive response from 

respondent interested parties.5 As a 

result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce 

conducted an expedited (120-day) 

sunset review of this Order. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the Order 

is melamine (Chemical Abstracts 

Service (CAS) registry number 108–78– 

01, molecular formula C3H6N6).6

Melamine is a crystalline powder or 

granule typically (but not exclusively) 

used to manufacture melamine 

formaldehyde resins. All melamine is 

covered by the scope of this order 

irrespective of purity, particle size, or 

physical form. Melamine that has been 

blended with other products is included 

within this scope when such blends 

include constituent parts that have been 

intermingled, but that have not been 

chemically reacted with each other to 

produce a different product. For such 

blends, only the melamine component 

of the mixture is covered by the scope 

of this order. Melamine that is otherwise 

subject to this order is not excluded 

when commingled with melamine from 

sources not subject to this order. Only 

the subject component of such 

commingled products is covered by the 

scope of this order. 

The subject merchandise is provided 

for in subheading 2933.61.0000 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Although the 

HTSUS subheading and CAS registry 

number are provided for convenience 

and customs purposes, the written 

description of the scope is dispositive. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in this sunset review 

are addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, which is hereby adopted 

by this notice. The Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is on file electronically via the
