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). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this administrative review, as provided 

by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the 

cash deposit rate for Dalmine will be 

equal to the weighted-average dumping 

margin established in the final results of 

this administrative review; (2) for 

merchandise exported by a company not 

covered in this review but covered in a 

prior segment of the proceeding, the 

cash deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently-completed segment in 

which it was reviewed; (3) if the 

exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review or the original LTFV 

investigation, but the producer is, then 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recentlycompleted segment of this proceeding 

for the producer of the merchandise; 

and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be 47.87 percent,7 the all-others rate 

established in the LTFV investigation. 

These cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, 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 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 final 

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/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. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.221(b)(5) and 19 CFR

Tin Mill Products From the 

Netherlands: Final Negative 

Determination of Sales at Less Than 

Fair Value 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) determines that 

tin mill products from the Netherlands 

are not being, or are not likely to be, 

sold in the United States at less than fair 

value (LTFV) for the period of 

investigation January 1, 2022, through 

December 31, 2022. 

DATES: Applicable January 10, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 22, 2023, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register its 

preliminary determination in the LTFV 

investigation of tin mill products from 

the Netherlands, in which we also 

postponed the final determination until 

January 4, 2023.1 We invited interested 

parties to comment on the Preliminary 

Determination.2 We received comments 

on the Preliminary Determination from 

Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (Cleveland Cliffs) 

and the United Steel, Paper and 

Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, 

Energy, Allied Industrial and Service 

Workers International Union (USW).3

On December 1, 2023, we received a 

rebuttal brief from Tata Steel IJmuiden 

BV (TSIJ).4

For a complete description of the 

events that followed the Preliminary 

Determination, see the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum.5 The Issues and 

Decision Memorandum is a public 

document and is made available to the 

public 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. In addition, a 

complete version of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at https://access.trade.gov/ 

public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are tin mill products from 

the Netherlands. For a complete 

description of the scope of this 

investigation, see Appendix I. 

Scope Comments 

During the course of this 

investigation, Commerce received scope 

comments from parties. Commerce 

issued a Preliminary Scope Decision 

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.6

We received comments from parties on 

the Preliminary Scope Decision 

Memorandum, which we address in the 

Final Scope Decision Memorandum.7

We made no changes to the scope of the 

investigation from the scope published 

in the Preliminary Determination, as 

noted in Appendix I to this notice. 

Verification 

As provided in section 782(i) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 

in September and October 2023, we 

conducted verifications of the sales and 

cost information submitted by TSIJ for 

use in our final determination. We used 

standard verification procedures, 

including an examination of relevant 

sales and accounting records, and 

original source documents provided by 

TSIJ.8

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in the case and 

rebuttal briefs submitted by interested 

parties in this investigation are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. A list of the issues 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is attached as Appendix 

II to this notice. 

Changes Since the Preliminary 

Determination 

We have made certain changes to the 

margin calculations for TSIJ since the 

Preliminary Determination. For a 

discussion of these changes, see the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Final Determination 

The final estimated weighted-average 

dumping margin is as follows: 

Exporter/producer 

Estimated 

weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(percent) 

Tata Steel IJmuiden BV ............. 0.00 

Commerce determines that TSIJ, the 

only individually-examined respondent, 

has not made sales of subject 

merchandise at LTFV. Accordingly, 

Commerce has not calculated an 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin for all other producers and 

exporters pursuant to sections 

735(c)(1)(B) and (c)(5) of the Act, 

because it has not made an affirmative 

determination of sales at LTFV. 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed in this final determination 

within five days of the date of 

publication of this notice to parties in 

this proceeding in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.224(b). 

Suspension of Liquidation 

In the Preliminary Determination, we 

calculated an estimated weightedaverage dumping margin for TSIJ that 

was zero percent, and, therefore, we did 

not suspend liquidation of entries of tin 

mill products from the Netherlands.9

Because Commerce has now made a 

final negative determination of sales at 

LTFV with regard to the subject 

merchandise, Commerce will not direct 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection to 

suspend liquidation or to require a cash 

deposit of estimated antidumping duties 

for entries of tin mill products from the 

Netherlands. 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

Notification 

In accordance with section 735(d) of 

the Act, we will notify the International 

Trade Commission of this final negative 

determination of sales at LTFV. As our 

final determination is negative, this 

proceeding is terminated in accordance 

with section 735(c)(2) of the Act. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice will serve as the final 

reminder to parties subject to an 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

destruction 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 violation which is subject to 

sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This determination and this notice are 

issued and published pursuant to 

sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, 

and 19 CFR 351.210(c). 

Dated: January 4, 2024.
