(Kangtai) sold chlorinated isocyanurates (chlorinated isos) from the People's Republic of China (China) at less than normal value during the period of review (POR) June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On July 7, 2023, Commerce published its 
                    *Preliminary Results.*[1]
                    
                     For events subsequent to the 
                    *Preliminary Results, see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[2] Scope of the Order The products covered by the order are chlorinated isos, which are derivatives of cyanuric acid, described as chlorinated s-triazine triones. A full description of the scope of the Order is contained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised by interested parties in briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues addressed 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 
                    *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 two changes to the Romanian surrogate values (SVs) for chlorine and brokerage and handling charges.[3] Separate Rate Eligibility In the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we found that Heze Huayi and Kangtai demonstrated their eligibility for separate rates.[4]
                    
                     As we received no information or interested party arguments to the contrary since the issuance of the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we continue to find that Heze Huayi and Kangtai are each eligible for a separate rate. China-Wide Entity Commerce's policy regarding the conditional review of the China-wide entity applies to this administrative review.[5]
                    
                     Under this policy, the China-wide 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, we did not review the entity in this segment of the proceeding. Thus, the China-wide entity's rate (
                    *i.e.,*
                     285.63 percent) [6]
                    
                     did not change. Final Results of Review Commerce determines that the following weighted-average dumping margins exists for Heze Huayi and Kangtai for the period of June 1, 2021, through May 31, 2022: Exporter

 Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed to parties in this proceeding within five days of the date of publication of this notice 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. Commerce intends 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). For the individually-examined respondent in this review which has a final weighted-average dumping margin that is not zero or 
                    *de minimis*
                     (
                    *i.e.,*
                     less than 0.5 percent), we will calculate importer- (or customer-) specific per-unit duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's (or customer's) examined sales to the total sales quantity associated with those sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).[7]
                    
                     We will also calculate (estimated) 
                    *ad valorem*
                     importer-specific assessment rates with which to determine whether the per-unit assessment rates are 
                    *de minimis.*
                     Where either a respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or 
                    *de minimis,*
                     or an importer- (or customer-) specific assessment rate is zero or 
                    *de minimis,*
                     we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.[8] 
 
 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 the exporters listed above, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the final results of this review (except, if the rate is zero or 
                    *de minimis,*
                     a zero cash deposit rate will be required for that company); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed China and non-China exporters not listed above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing producer/exporter-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) for all China exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be eligible for a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the China-wide rate of 285.63 percent; and (4) for all non-China exporters of subject merchandise that have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the China exporter(s) that supplied that non-China exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties This notice serves as a 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 POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or countervailing duties has occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties, and/or increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of the countervailing duties. Administrative Protective Order (APO) This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 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 in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). Dated: December 28, 2023. Abdelali Elouaradia, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
