SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Commerce published the 
                    *Preliminary Results*
                     on March 7, 2023.[1]
                    
                     For a discussion of events subsequent to the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[2]
                    
                     Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). On June 28, 2023, we extended the deadline for these final results to September 5, 2023.[3] Scope of the Order The product covered by the order includes all small diameter graphite electrodes with a nominal or actual diameter of 400 millimeters (16 inches) or less and graphite pin joining systems for small diameter graphite electrodes. A full description of the scope of the order is provided in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the parties' briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of these issues is attached as an appendix to this notice.[4]
                    
                     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 
                    *https://access.trade.gov*. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at 
                    *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx*. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on our review of the record and comments received from interested parties regarding our 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we made one revision to the margin calculation for Fushun Jinly as explained in Comment 2 of the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Final Results of the Review Commerce determines that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for Fushun Jinly for the period February 1, 2021, through January 31, 2022: Exporter
Weighted-
                             average  
                             dumping 
                             margin 
                             (percent)Fushun Jinly Petrochemical Carbon Co., Ltd
30.14
 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,[5]
                    
                     we did not conduct a review of the China-wide entity. Thus, the weighted-average dumping margin for the China-wide 
                    ( print page 62319)
                    entity (
                    *i.e.,*
                     159.64 percent) [6]
                    
                     is not subject to change as a result of this review. Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed within five days of the date of publication of this notice to parties in this proceeding in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 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 of subject merchandise in accordance with these final results of review. We intend to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of these final results. 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). Because Fushun Jinly did not report entered value, we calculated a per-unit rate for each importer (or customer) by dividing the total amount of dumping calculated for reviewed sales to that party by the total sales quantity associated with those transactions. For duty-assessment rates calculated on this basis, we will direct CBP to assess the resulting per-unit rate against the entered quantity of the subject merchandise. Where an importer- (or customer-) specific assessment rate is zero or 
                    *de minimis*
                     (
                    *i.e.,*
                     less than 0.50 percent), Commerce will instruct CBP to assess that importer's (or customer's) entries of subject merchandise without regard to antidumping duties in accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). For entries that were not reported in the U.S. sales database submitted by Fushun Jinly during this review, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the antidumping duty assessment rate for the China-wide entity (
                    *i.e.,*
                     159.64 percent). Cash Deposit Requirements The following 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 Fushun Jinly the cash deposit rate will be the margin listed above; (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.,*
                    159.64 percent); 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 exporter(s) that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. 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. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as a 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 violation which is 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 and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). Dated: September 5, 2023. Lisa W. Wang, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
