SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
 
 Background On January 16, 2018, Commerce published the 
                    *Preliminary Results*
                    .[1]
                    
                     For the events that occurred since Commerce published the 
                    *Preliminary Results, see*
                     Issues and Decision Memorandum.[2]
                    
                     Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Commerce exercised its discretion to toll all deadlines affected by the closure of the Federal Government from January 20 through 22, 2018. As a result, the revised deadline for the final results of this administrative review was May 22, 2018.[3]
                    
                     On May 15, 2018, we extended this deadline to July 18, 2018.[4] Scope of the Order The product covered by the order is multilayered wood flooring from China. A full description of the scope of the order is contained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of these issues is attached to this notice as an Appendix. 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*
                     and in the Central Records Unit, room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the internet at 
                    *http://enforcement.trade.gov/​frn/​index.html.*
                     The signed Issues and Decision Memorandum and electronic version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Final Determination of No Shipments In the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we determined preliminarily that 16 companies did not have shipments of subject merchandise during the POR.[5]
                    
                     As we have not received any information to contradict our preliminary finding, we determine that these companies did not have any shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. We will issue appropriate instructions that are consistent with our “automatic assessment” clarification, for these final results.[6] Separate Rates In the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     Commerce determined that Jiangsu Senmao and 69 additional companies not selected for individual review demonstrated their eligibility for separate rates.[7]
                    
                     Commerce also determined that Jinqiao Flooring, one of the companies that Commerce selected as a mandatory respondent in this administrative review, was ineligible for a separate rate and is part of the China-wide entity, subject to the China-wide entity rate of 25.62 percent.[8]
                    
                     These determinations remain unchanged. 
                    *See*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum for further discussion. Partial Rescission of Administrative Review In accordance with the Court of International Trade's decision in
                    *Changzhou Hawd Flooring Co., Ltd., et al.*
                     v. 
                    *United States,*[9]
                    
                     and consistent with the amended final determination, dated concurrently with this notice,[10]
                    
                     we are excluding Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Limited and Dunhau City Jisen Wood Industry Co., Ltd., from the antidumping duty order. As a result, we are partially rescinding this administrative review with respect to these companies. Separate Rate Respondents In accordance with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit's decision in 
                    *Albemarle Corp.*
                     v. 
                    *United States,*[11]
                    
                     we assigned to eligible non-selected respondents the separate rate we assigned to Jiangsu Senmao for the final results of this review.[12] Final Results As a result of this administrative review, we determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period December 1, 2015, through November 30, 2016:

 Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce will determine, 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. Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results. With regard to Jinqiao Flooring, we will instruct CBP to apply the China-wide assessment rate of 25.62 percent of the entered value of subject merchandise which was exported by this company during the POR. For Jiangsu Senmao and the other companies listed above that were not selected for individual review but were found eligible for separate rates, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. Additionally, consistent with its assessment practice in non-market economy (NME) cases, for the 16 companies which Commerce determined had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries made under those exporters' case numbers (
                    *i.e.,*
                     at the exporters' rates) will be liquidated at the China-wide rate.[13]
                    
                     These companies are listed in Appendix II. With regard to Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Limited, and Dunhua City Jisen Wood Industry Co., Ltd., because of the pending litigation, as discussed above, we intend to provide CBP with appropriate instructions with respect to this review at a later time. Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of these final results of 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 sections 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For companies which have received a separate rate in this segment of the proceeding, no cash deposit will be required; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-Chinese exporters that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (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 that for the China-wide entity; and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Reimbursement of Duties This notice also serves as a 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 occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Administrative Protective Orders 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, 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. This determination is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). Dated: July 18, 2018. Gary Taverman, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
