3 In the final determination of the circumvention 

inquiry involving Vietnam Quijiang (see Certain 

Tissue Paper Products from the People’s Republic 

of China: Affirmative Final Determination of 

Circumvention of the Antidumping Duty Order, 73 

FR 57591 (October 3, 2008), the Department stated 

that if Vietnam Quijiang did not participate in this 

administrative review, we would immediately 

revoke the certification program relevant to its 

entries of certain tissue paper products from 

Vietnam, thereby presuming all of its entries to be 

of PRC origin regardless of whether they are 

declared to be Vietnamese or PRC origin. See

Assessment 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the 

Department will determine, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries. The Department 

intends to issue assessment instructions 

to CBP 15 days after the date of 

publication of these final results of 

review. In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1), for Max Fortune, we 

calculated importer (or customer)- 

specific assessment rates for the 

merchandise subject to this review. 

Because we do not have entered values 

on the record for Max Fortune’s sales, 

we calculated a per-unit assessment rate 

by aggregating the antidumping duties 

due for all U.S. sales to each importer 

(or customer) and dividing this amount 

by the total quantity sold to that 

importer (or customer). See 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1). 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 

calculated importer (or customer)- 

specific ad valorem ratios based on the 

estimated entered value. Where an 

importer (or customer)-specific ad 

valorem rate is zero or de minimis, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. See 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(2). 

With respect to the PRC-wide entity 

(including Vietnam Quijiang and Guilin 

Qifeng), we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate appropriate entries at the PRCwide rate of 112.64 percent.3

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the notice of final results 

of the administrative review for all 

shipments of certain tissue paper 

products from the PRC entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the date of 

publication, as provided by section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) A cash 

deposit rate of 14.25 percent will be 

required for certain tissue paper 

products from the PRC exported by Max 

Fortune; (2) for previously reviewed or 

investigated companies not listed above 

that have separate rates, the cashdeposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recent period; (3) for all other PRC 

exporters of subject merchandise, which 

have not been found to be entitled to a 

separate rate, the cash-deposit rate will 

be PRC-wide rate of 112.64 percent; and 

(4) for all non-PRC exporters of subject 

merchandise, the cash-deposit rate will 

be the rate applicable to the PRC 

exporter that supplied that non-PRC 

exporter. These deposit requirements, 

when imposed, shall remain in effect 

until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as the final 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 

to file a certificate regarding the 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

prior to liquidation of the relevant 

entries during this review period. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in the Secretary’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and in the 

subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition 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 the terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

We are issuing and publishing these 

final results of review in accordance 

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

the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). 

Dated: October 5, 2009.

Mexico. See Purified 

Carboxymethylcellulose From Mexico: 

Notice of Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 74 FR 16359 (April 10, 2009) 

(Preliminary Results). The review covers 

one producer/exporter, Quimica Amtex, 

S.A. de C.V. (Amtex). The period of 

review (POR) is July 1, 2007, through 

June 30, 2008. We invited interested 

parties to comment on our Preliminary 

Results. The Department received 

comments concerning our Preliminary 

Results from respondents only. Based 

on our analysis of the comments 

received, we have made certain changes 

in the margin calculations. Therefore, 

the final results differ from the 

Preliminary Results. The final 

weighted–average dumping margin for 

the reviewed firm is listed below in the 

section entitled ‘‘Final Results of 

Review.’’

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On April 10, 2009, the Department 

published the preliminary results of this 

review in the Federal Register. See 

Preliminary Results. We invited parties 

to comment on the Preliminary Results. 

Since the Preliminary Results, we 

received a case brief from respondent 

Amtex on May 11, 2009. No brief was 

received from petitioner, Aqualon 

Company (a division of Hercules 

Incorporated). 

Amtex originally reported as many as 

three entered values for some of its 

constructed export price (CEP) sales; 

these particular sales quantities had 

been blended from various lots of CMC 

held in Amtex USA’s U.S. inventory. In 

order for the Department to calculate 

importer–specific ad valorem 

assessment rates, we directed Amtex to 

report a single weighted entered value 

for each reported CEP sale in a 

supplemental questionnaire. See 

‘‘Purified Carboxymethylcellulose from 

Mexico: Supplemental Section C 

Questionnaire,’’ dated July 17, 2009. 

Amtex fully complied with this request 

in its ‘‘Quimica Amtex, S.A. de C.V. 

Supplemental Section C Questionnaire 

Response,’’ dated August 5, 2009. At our 

instruction, Amtex allocated its entered 

value to report a single weighted– 

average entered value for each CEP 

transaction. 

On August 5, 2009, the Department 

published in the Federal Register an 

extension of the time limit for the final 

results until October 7, 2009. See 

Purified Carboxymethylcellulose from 

Mexico: Extension of Time Limit for 

Final Results of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, 74 FR 39054 

(August 5, 2009). 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is all purified carboxymethylcellulose 

(CMC), sometimes also referred to as 

purified sodium CMC, polyanionic 

cellulose, or cellulose gum, which is a 

white to off–white, non–toxic, odorless, 

biodegradable powder, comprising 

sodium CMC that has been refined and 

purified to a minimum assay of 90 

percent. Purified CMC does not include 

unpurified or crude CMC, CMC 

Fluidized Polymer Suspensions, and 

CMC that is cross–linked through heat 

treatment. Purified CMC is CMC that 

has undergone one or more purification 

operations which, at a minimum, reduce 

the remaining salt and other by–product 

portion of the product to less than ten 

percent. The merchandise subject to this 

order is classified in the Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States at 

subheading 3912.31.00. This tariff 

classification is provided for 

convenience and customs purposes; 

however, the written description of the 

scope of the order is dispositive. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received, we have made 

certain changes to the margin 

calculations. In its case brief, Amtex 

alleged that the Department had failed 

to make several conversions from 

pounds to kilograms for those sales 

originally invoiced in pounds. See 

‘‘Purified Carboxymethylcellulose from 

Mexico (A–201–834): Case Brief for the 

Final Results,’’ dated May 11, 2009, at 

pages 1–5. The comparison market 

database fields affected were inland 

freight charges (INLFTCH) and variable 

cost of manufacture (VCOMH). Id., at 1– 

4. The U.S. market database fields 

affected were variable cost of 

manufacture (VCOMU), total cost of 

manufacture (TCOMU), and packing 

(PACKU and PACK1U). Id., at 1–5. 

After analyzing the databases and the 

programming used in the Preliminary 

Results, we agreed with Amtex. 

Therefore, we added two lines of 

programming to the comparison market 

program stipulating that if the quantity 

unit reporting was in pounds, then the 

following adjustments to the 

comparison market program were 

appropriate: ‘‘INLFTCH = INLFTCH * 

2.204’’ and ‘‘VCOMH = VCOMH * 

2.204.’’ We also added three lines of 

programming to the U.S. market 

program stipulating that if the quantity 

unit reporting was in pounds, then the 

following adjustments to the U.S. 

market program were appropriate: 

‘‘VCOMU = VCOMU * 2.204’’ and 

‘‘TCOMU = TCOMU * 2.204’’ and 

‘‘PACKU = PACK1U’’ (PACK1U 

reported the PACKU value as converted 

into kilograms). 

Final Results of Review 

The final weighted–average dumping 

margin for the period July 1, 2007, 

through June 30, 2008, is as follows: 

Producer/Exporter 

Weighted–Average 

Margin 

(Percentage) 

Quimica Amtex, S.A. de 

C.V. ........................... 2.94 

Assessment 

The Department shall determine, and 

CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 

all appropriate entries. We have 

calculated importer–specific ad valorem 

duty assessment rates based on the ratio 

of the total amount of antidumping 

duties calculated for the examined sales 

to the total entered value of the sales. 

We will instruct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review if any 

importer–specific assessment rate 

calculated in the final results of this 

review is above de minimis (i.e., less 

than 0.50 percent). The Department 

intends to issue assessment instructions 

to CBP 15 days after the date of 

publication of these final results of 

review. 

The Department clarified its 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on 

May 6, 2003. See Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). This 

clarification will apply to entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR 

produced by companies included in 

these final results of review for which 

the reviewed companies did not know 

their merchandise was destined for the 

United States. In such instances, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate un–reviewed 

entries at the all–others rate established 

in the less–than-fair–value (LTFV) 

investigation if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company or companies 

involved in the transaction.

Cash Deposit Requirements 

Further, the following deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of purified 

carboxymethylcellulose from Mexico 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this administrative review, as provided 

for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act): (1) 

the cash deposit rates for the reviewed 

companies will be the rates shown 

above, except if the rate is less than 0.50 

percent, de minimis within the meaning 

of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), the cash 

deposit will be zero; (2) for previously– 

investigated or reviewed companies not 

listed above, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the company–specific 

rate published for the most recent 

period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm 

covered in this review, or the LTFV 

investigation, but the manufacturer is, 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recent period 

for the manufacturer of the 

merchandise; and, (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other manufacturers or 

exporters will continue to be 12.61 

percent, the ‘‘all others’’ rate established 

in the LTFV investigation. See Notice of 

Final Determination of Sales at Less 

Than Fair Value: Purified 

Carboxymethylcellulose from Mexico, 

70 FR 28280 (May 17, 2005). These 

deposit requirements 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 review period. Failure to 

comply with this requirement could 

result in the Secretary’s presumption 

that reimbursement of antidumping 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of return/ 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and the terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

This administrative review and notice 

are issued and published in accordance 

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

the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 8, 2009, the Department of 

Commerce (the Department) published 

the preliminary results of review of the 

antidumping duty order on freshwater 

crawfish tail meat from the People’s 

Republic of China (PRC). See Freshwater 

Crawfish Tail Meat From the People’s 

Republic of China: Preliminary Results 

of Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review and Intent to Rescind Review in 

Part, 74 FR 27109 (June 8, 2009) 

(Preliminary Results). The 

administrative review covers Xiping 

Opeck Food Co., Ltd. (Xiping Opeck). 

We invited interested parties to 

comment on the preliminary results. On 

July 8, 2009, we received a case brief 

from the petitioner, the Crawfish 

Processors Alliance. We did not receive 

a rebuttal brief from Xiping Opeck. No 

interested party has requested a hearing. 

The Department has conducted this 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by the 

antidumping duty order is freshwater 

crawfish tail meat, in all its forms 

(whether washed or with fat on, 

whether purged or un–purged), grades, 

and sizes; whether frozen, fresh, or 

chilled; and regardless of how it is 

packed, preserved, or prepared. 

Excluded from the scope of the order are 

live crawfish and other whole crawfish, 

whether boiled, frozen, fresh, or chilled. 

Also excluded are saltwater crawfish of 

any type, and parts thereof. 

Freshwater crawfish tail meat is 

currently classifiable in the Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS) under item numbers 

1605.40.10.10 and 1605.40.10.90, which 

are the HTSUS numbers for prepared 

foodstuffs, indicating peeled crawfish 

tail meat and other, as introduced by 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) in 2000, and HTSUS numbers 

0306.19.00.10 and 0306.29.00.00, which 

are reserved for fish and crustaceans in 

general. The HTSUS subheadings are 

provided for convenience and customs 

purposes only. The written description 

of the scope of the order is dispositive. 

Rescission of Administrative Review in 

Part 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

preliminarily found that Shanghai Now 

Again International Trading Co., Ltd. 

(Shanghai Now Again), and Yancheng 

Hi–King Agriculture Developing Co., 

Ltd. (Hi–King), had no shipments of 

subject merchandise during the period 

of review and we stated our intent to 

rescind the administrative review with 

respect to these companies. See 

Preliminary Results, 74 FR at 27110. We 

have received no comments concerning 

our intent to rescind this administrative 

review in part. We continue to find that 

Shanghai Now Again and Hi–King had 

no shipments of freshwater crawfish tail 

meat from the PRC during the period of 

review. In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(3), we are rescinding the
