SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On August 6, 2021, we published the preliminary results of this administrative review and invited interest parties to comment.[1]
                    
                     These final results cover eight companies for which an administrative review was initiated and not rescinded.[2]
                    
                     For a complete description of the events that followed the 
                    *Preliminary Results, see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[3]
                    
                     Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Scope of the Order 
                    4 The product covered by the 
                    *Order*
                     is steel concrete reinforcing bar from Turkey. For a full description of the scope, 
                    *see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[5] Analysis of Comments Received We addressed all issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of these issues discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached in an appendix to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is available electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Services 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.* Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on our analysis of the comments received from interested parties, a review of the record, and for the reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we made changes to Kaptan Demir's margin calculations. We did not make changes to Colakoglu's margin. Final Determination of No Shipments For the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we found that Habas Sinai ve Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal Endüstrisi A.S (Habas) did not have any shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. No parties commented on this preliminary determination. For the final results of the review, we continue to find that Habas made no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. Final Results of the Review We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period July 1, 2019, through June 30, 2020: Producers/exporters 6

 Rates for Non-Selected Companies For the rate for non-selected respondents in an administrative review, generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a market economy investigation. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally “an amount equal to the weighted-average of the estimated weighted-average dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually investigated, excluding any zero or 
                    *de minimis*
                     margins, and any margins determined entirely {on the basis of facts available}.” In this segment of the proceeding, we calculated a margin for Kaptan Demir that was not zero, 
                    *de minimis,*
                     or based on facts available, whereas, for Colakoglu, we calculated a margin that was zero. Accordingly, Commerce is assigning Colakoglu's rate of 1.02 percent to companies not selected for individual examination. Disclosure Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these final results within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , 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 shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this 
                    ( print page 7120)
                    review.[8]
                    
                     In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), Commerce calculated an importer-specific 
                    *ad valorem*
                     antidumping assessment rate for Kaptan Demir that is not zero or 
                    *de minimis,*
                     and will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. Commerce will also instruct CBP to apply an 
                    *ad valorem*
                     assessment rate of 1.02 percent to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR which were produced and/or exported by Icdas Celik Enerji Tersane ve Ulasim Sanayi A.S., Kroman Celik Sanayi A.S., Yücel Boru Ithalat-Ihracat ve Pazarlama A.Ş., and Diler Dis Ticaret A.S. In addition, we continue to find that Habas had no shipments during the POR. Accordingly, consistent with Commerce's practice, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate any existing entries of merchandise produced by Habas, but exported by other parties, at the rate for the intermediate reseller, if available, or at the all-others rate.[9] Consistent with Commerce's assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Kaptan Demir for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.[10] Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . 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). Cash Deposit Requirements The following 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 the companies under review will be the rate established in the final results of this review (except, if the 
                    *ad valorem*
                     rate is 
                    *de minimis,*
                     then the cash deposit rate will be zero); (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not covered in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding in which the company was reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding for the producer of subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 3.90 percent, the all-others rate established in the investigation.[11]
                    
                     These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice serves as 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 review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under the 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 terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. Notification to Interested Parties We are issuing and publishing these final results in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(5). Dated: February 2, 2022. Lisa W. Wang, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
