SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 28, 2000, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

AD order on tin mill products from 

Japan.1 On June 1, 2023, Commerce 

published the notice of initiation of the 

fourth sunset review of the Order, 

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

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

On June 16, 2023, Commerce received 

notices of intent to participate in this 

review from Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. 

(Cleveland-Cliffs) and United States 

Steel Corporation (U.S. Steel) within the 

deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(i).3 Cleveland-Cliffs and 

U.S. Steel claimed interested party 

status under section 771(9)(C) of the 

Act, as producers of the domestic like 

product in the United States. On June 30 

and July 3, 2023, we received adequate 

substantive responses from ClevelandCliffs and U.S. Steel, respectively, 

within the 30-day deadline specified in 

19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).4 We received 

no substantive responses from 

respondent interested parties. Therefore, 

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 the Order. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the 

Order is tin mill products. For a 

complete description of the scope of the 

Order, see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum.6

Analysis of Comments Received 

A complete discussion of all issues 

raised in this sunset review is contained 

in the accompanying Issues and 

Decision Memorandum.7 A list of topics 

discussed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is included as an 

appendix to this notice. The Issues and 

Decision Memorandum is a public 

document and is on file electronically

Final Results of Sunset Review 

Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 

752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, Commerce 

determines that revocation of the Order 

would likely lead to the continuation or 

recurrence of dumping and that the 

magnitude of the dumping margins 

likely to prevail would be weightedaverage margins up to 95.29 percent.8

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Orders 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to interested parties subject to 

an administrative protective order 

(APO) of their responsibility concerning 

the disposition of proprietary 

information disclosed under APO in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. 

Timely 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 in accordance with sections 

751(c), 752(c), and 777(i)(1) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.218.

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are paper file folders. For 

a full description of the scope of this 

investigation, see Appendix I. 

Scope Comments 

During the course of this 

investigation, Commerce received scope 

comments from interested parties. 

Commerce issued a Preliminary Scope 

Memorandum to address these 

comments and set aside a period of time 

for parties to address scope issues in 

scope-specific case and rebuttal briefs.4

We did not receive comments from any 

interested parties on the Preliminary 

Scope Memorandum. We, therefore, did 

not make any changes to the scope of 

the investigation from the scope 

published in the Preliminary 

Determination, as noted in Appendix I. 

Analysis of Subsidy Programs and 

Comments Received 

The subsidy programs under 

investigation, and the issues raised in 

the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in 

this investigation, are discussed in the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. For 

a list of the issues raised by parties, and 

to which we responded in the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum, see 

Appendix II. 

Methodology 

Commerce conducted this 

investigation in accordance with section 

701 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). For each of the 

subsidy programs found to be 

countervailable, Commerce determines 

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

contribution by an ‘‘authority’’ that 

gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, 

and that the subsidy is specific.5 For a 

full description of the methodology 

underlying our final determination, 

including our determination with 

respect to Lotus Global Pvt. Ltd (Lotus 

Global) that relied upon the use of 

adverse facts available pursuant to 

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

the Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Changes Since the Preliminary 

Determination and Post-Preliminary 

Analysis 

Based on our review and analysis of 

the information received during 

verification and comments received 

from arties, for this final determination, 

we made certain changes to the 

countervailable subsidy rate 

calculations for Navneet Education Ltd. 

(Navneet), Lotus Global, and for all 

other producers/exporters. For a 

discussion of these changes, see the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

All-Others Rate 

Pursuant to section 705(c)(5)(A)(i) of 

the Act, Commerce will determine an 

all-others rate equal to the weightedaverage countervailable subsidy rates 

established for exporters and/or 

producers individually investigated, 

excluding any zero and de minimis 

countervailable subsidy rates, and any 

rates determined entirely under section 

776 of the Act. In this investigation, 

Commerce calculated a total subsidy 

rate for Lotus Global determined 

entirely under section 776 of the Act. 

Therefore, the only rate that is not zero, 

de minimis, or based entirely on facts 

otherwise available is the rate calculated 

for Navneet. Consequently, the rate 

calculated for Navneet is also assigned 

as the rate for all other producers and 

exporters. 

Final Determination 

Commerce determines that the 

following estimated net countervailable 

subsidy rates exist for the period 

January 1, 2021, through December 31, 

2021: 

Company 

Subsidy rate 

(percent 

ad valorem) 

Navneet Education Ltd ......... 3.78 

Lotus Global Pvt. Ltd ............ 90.98 

All Others .............................. 3.78 

Disclosure 

Normally, Commerce will disclose to 

the parties in a proceeding the 

calculations performed in connection 

with a final determination within five 

days of any public announcement or, if 

there is no public announcement, 

within five days of the date of 

publication of the notice of final 

determination in the Federal Register, 

in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

However, because we have made no 

calculation changes from the 

Preliminary Determination, there are no 

calculations to disclose. 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

As a result of our Preliminary 

Determination, and pursuant to sections 

703(d)(1)(B) and (d)(2) of the Act, 

Commerce instructed U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) to collect cash 

deposits and suspend liquidation of 

entries of subject merchandise as 

described in the scope of the 

investigation section entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after March 20, 

2023, the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination in the 

Federal Register. In accordance with 

section 703(d) of the Act, on July 19, 

2023, we instructed CBP to discontinue 

the suspension of liquidation of all 

entries of subject merchandise entered 

or withdrawn from warehouse, on or 

after July 18, 2023, but to continue the 

suspension of liquidation of all entries 

of subject merchandise on or after 

March 20, 2023 and on or before July 17, 

2023. 

If the U.S. International Trade 

Commission (ITC) issues a final 

affirmative injury determination, we 

will issue a countervailing duty order, 

reinstate the suspension of liquidation 

under section 706(a) of the Act, and 

require a cash deposit of estimated 

countervailing duties for such entries of 

subject merchandise in the amounts 

indicated above, in accordance with 

section 706(a) of the Act. If the ITC 

determines that material injury, or 

threat of material injury, does not exist, 

this proceeding will be terminated, and 

all estimated duties deposited or 

securities posted as a result of the 

suspension of liquidation will be 

refunded or canceled. 

ITC Notification 

In accordance with section 705(d) of 

the Act, Commerce will notify the ITC 

of its final affirmative determination 

that countervailable subsidies are being 

provided to producers and exporters of 

paper file folders from India. As 

Commerce’s final determination is 

affirmative, in accordance with section 

705(b) of the Act, the ITC will 

determine, within 45 days, whether the 

domestic industry in the United States 

is materially injured, or threatened with 

material injury, by reason of imports of 

paper file folders from India. In 

addition, we are making available to the 

ITC all non-privileged and nonproprietary information related to this 

investigation. We will allow the ITC 

access to all privileged and business

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

written notification of the return/ 

destruction of APO materials or

with the regulations and terms of an 

APO is a violation which is subject to 

sanction.
