# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Background

                    On July 15, 2024, Commerce published the preliminary results of this expedited CCR, determining that TRAPA is the successor-in-interest to Trans-Pacific for purposes of determining AD cash deposits and liabilities, and provided all interested parties with an opportunity to comment.[1]                                          No interested party submitted comments on the                     *Preliminary Results.*                     Accordingly, the final results remain unchanged from the                     *Preliminary Results.*

## Scope of the Order

                    The merchandise subject to the order is certain softwood lumber.[2]                                          The product is currently classified under the following Harmonized Tariff Schedule                           ( print page 77473)                        of the United States (HTSUS) numbers: 4406.11.0000; 4406.91.0000; 4407.10.01.01; 4407.10.01.02; 4407.10.01.15; 4407.10.01.16; 4407.10.01.17; 4407.10.01.18; 4407.10.01.19; 4407.10.01.20; 4407.10.01.42; 4407.10.01.43; 4407.10.01.44; 4407.10.01.45; 4407.10.01.46; 4407.10.01.47; 4407.10.01.48; 4407.10.01.49; 4407.10.01.52; 4407.10.01.53; 4407.10.01.54; 4407.10.01.55; 4407.10.01.56; 4407.10.01.57; 4407.10.01.58; 4407.10.01.59; 4407.10.01.64; 4407.10.01.65; 4407.10.01.66; 4407.10.01.67; 4407.10.01.68; 4407.10.01.69; 4407.10.01.74; 4407.10.01.75; 4407.10.01.76; 4407.10.01.77; 4407.10.01.82; 4407.10.01.83; 4407.10.01.92; 4407.10.01.93; 4407.11.00.01; 4407.11.00.02; 4407.11.00.42; 4407.11.00.43; 4407.11.00.44; 4407.11.00.45; 4407.11.00.46; 4407.11.00.47; 4407.11.00.48; 4407.11.00.49; 4407.11.00.52; 4407.11.00.53; 4407.12.00.01; 4407.12.00.02; 4407.12.00.17; 4407.12.00.18; 4407.12.00.19; 4407.12.00.20; 4407.12.00.58; 4407.12.00.59; 4407.19.05.00; 4407.19.06.00; 4407.19.10.01; 4407.19.10.02; 4407.19.10.54; 4407.19.10.55; 4407.19.10.56; 4407.19.10.57; 4407.19.10.64; 4407.19.10.65; 4407.19.10.66; 4407.19.10.67; 4407.19.10.68; 4407.19.10.69; 4407.19.10.74; 4407.19.10.75; 4407.19.10.76; 4407.19.10.77; 4407.19.10.82; 4407.19.10.83; 4407.19.10.92; 4407.19.10.93; 4409.10.05.00; 4409.10.10.20; 4409.10.10.40; 4409.10.10.60; 4409.10.10.80; 4409.10.20.00; 4409.10.90.20; 4409.10.90.40; 4418.50.0010; 4418.50.0030; 4418.50.0050; and 4418.99.10.00.

## Final Results of CCR

                    For the reasons stated in the                     *Preliminary Results,*                     and because we received no comments from interested parties challenging our preliminary finding, Commerce continues to find that TRAPA is the successor-in-interest to Trans-Pacific. As a result of this determination and consistent with our established practice, we find that TRAPA should receive the AD cash deposit rate previously assigned to Trans-Pacific. Because there are no changes from the                     *Preliminary Results,*                     there is no decision memorandum accompanying this notice and we are adopting the                     *Preliminary Results*                     as the final results of this CCR.                

                    Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Trans-Pacific and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the                     **Federal Register**                     at 7.80 percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate for Trans-Pacific.[3]                                          This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further notice.                

## Administrative Protective Order

This notice serves as the final reminder to 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(a)(3). Timely written notification of 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 sanctionable violation.

## Notification to Interested Parties

We are issuing this determination and publishing these final results and notice in accordance with sections 751(b)(1) and 777(i)(1) and (2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.216(e), 351.221(b), and 351.221(c)(3).
