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)(2) to file a 

certificate regarding the reimbursement 

of antidumping duties prior to 

liquidation of the relevant POR entries. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of doubled 

antidumping duties. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Orders 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective orders (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the return or 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under an 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 

sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties

notice in accordance with sections 

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

CFR 351.221(b)(5).

Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised by the interested 

parties in their case and rebuttal briefs 

are addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. A list of these issues is 

identified 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 CVD 

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. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on the comments received from 

interested parties, we revised the 

calculation of the net countervailable 

subsidy rates for the respondents: Agro 

Sevilla Aceitunas S.COOP Andalusia 

(Agro Sevilla) and Angel Camacho 

Alimentacion S.L. (Camacho). For a 

discussion of these issues, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum. 

Methodology 

Commerce conducted this review in 

accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act). For each of the subsidy programs 

found to be countervailable, we 

determine that there is a subsidy, i.e., a 

government-provided financial 

contribution that gives rise to a benefit 

to the recipient, and that the subsidy is 

specific.4 The Issues and Decision 

Memorandum contains a full 

description of the methodology 

underlying Commerce’s conclusions, 

including any determination that relied 

upon the use of facts otherwise 

available, including, adverse facts 

available, pursuant to sections 776(a) 

and (b) of the Act. 

Rate for Non-Selected Companies 

Under Review 

There are three companies for which 

a review was requested and not 

rescinded, and which were not selected 

as mandatory respondents or found to 

be cross owned with a mandatory 

respondent. For these companies, 

because the rates calculated for the 

mandatory respondents, Agro Sevilla 

and Camacho, were above de minimis 

and not based entirely on facts 

available, we are applying to the nonselected companies the weighted 

average of the net subsidy rates 

calculated for Agro Sevilla and 

Camacho, which we calculated using 

the publicly-ranged sales data submitted 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 48 / Friday, March 11, 2022 / Notices 13971 

5With two respondents under examination, 

Commerce normally calculates (A) a weightedaverage of the estimated subsidy rates calculated for 

the examined respondents; (B) a simple average of 

the estimated subsidy rates calculated for the 

examined respondents; and (C) a weighted-average 

of the estimated subsidy rates calculated for the 

examined respondents using each company’s 

publicly-ranged U.S. sale quantities for the 

merchandise under consideration. Commerce then 

compares (B) and (C) to (A) and selects the rate 

closest to (A) as the most appropriate rate for all 

other producers and exporters. See, e.g., Ball 

Bearings and Parts Thereof from France, Germany, 

Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom: Final Results 

of Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews, Final 

Results of Changed-Circumstances Review, and 

Revocation of an Order in Part, 75 FR 53661, 53663 

(September 1, 2010). 

6Commerce found the following companies to be 

cross-owned with Angel Camacho Alimentacio ́n, 

S.L.: Grupo Angel Camacho, S.L., Cuarterola S.L., 

and Cucanoche S.L. 

7This rate is based on the rates for the 

respondents that were selected for individual 

review, excluding rates that are zero, de minimis, 

or based entirely on facts available. See section 

735(c)(5)(A) of the Act. 

by Agro Sevilla and Camacho.5 This 

methodology to establish the all-others 

subsidy rate is consistent with our 

practice and section 705(c)(5)(A) of the 

Act.

countervailable subsidy rates for the 

POR January 1, 2019, through December 

31, 2019:

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of this

of the Act, Commerce also intends to 

instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties in the 

amounts shown above for the abovelisted companies with regard to 

shipments of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the date of 

publication of these final results of 

review. For all non-reviewed firms, CBP 

will continue to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties at the 

most recent company-specific or allothers rate applicable to the company, 

as appropriate. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to parties subject to 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 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 sanctionable violation.
