SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 9, 2024, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register its 

preliminary affirmative determination 

in the LTFV investigation of wine 

bottles from Mexico, in which it also 

postponed the final determination until 

December 23, 2024.1 We invited 

interested parties to comment on the 

Preliminary Determination.2 We 

received no comments from interested 

parties regarding the preliminary 

determination of negative critical 

circumstances. Therefore, we continue 

to determine that critical circumstances 

do not exist for all companies.3

A summary of the events that 

occurred since Commerce published the 

Preliminary Determination, as well as a 

full discussion of the issues raised by 

parties for this final determination, may 

be found in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum.4 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. 

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are wine bottles from 

Mexico. For a complete description of 

the scope of this investigation, see 

Appendix I.5

Scope Comments 

On August 19, 2024, Commerce 

published the final scope memorandum 

for this investigation.6 Commerce is not 

modifying the scope language as it 

appeared in the Initiation Notice and 

Preliminary Determination for the final 

determination.7 See the scope in 

Appendix I to this notice. 

Verification 

As provided in section 782(i) of the 

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

in August and October 2024, we verified 

the sales and cost information submitted 

by Owens Ame ́rica, S. de R.L. de C.V. 

(Owens Ame ́rica) and Fevisa Industrial 

S.A. de C.V./Fevisa Comercial S.A. de 

C.V./Fa ́brica de Envases de Vidrio S.A. 

de C.V./Fa ́brica de Envases de Vidrio 

del Potosi, S.A. de C.V (collectively, 

Fevisa) for use in our final 

determination.8 We used standard 

verification procedures, including an 

examination of relevant sales and 

accounting records, and original source 

documents provided by Owens Ame ́rica 

and Fevisa. 

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 to this notice 

as Appendix II. 

Changes Since the Preliminary 

Determination 

Based on a review of the record and 

comments received from interested 

parties regarding our Preliminary 

Determination, we made certain changes 

to both Fevisa’s and Owens America’s 

preliminary weighted-average dumping 

margin calculations. For a discussion of 

these changes, see the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum. 

All-Others Rate 

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

provides that the estimated weightedaverage dumping margin for all other 

producers and exporters not 

individually investigated shall be equal 

to the weighted average of the estimated 

weighted-average dumping margins 

established for individually investigated 

exporters and producers, excluding 

rates that are zero, de minimis, or 

determined entirely under section 776 

of the Act, i.e., facts otherwise available.

9See Memorandum, ‘‘All-Others Rate 

Calculation,’’ dated concurrently with this notice. 

With two respondents under examination, 

Commerce normally calculates: (A) a weightedaverage of the estimated weighted-average dumping 

margins calculated for the examined respondents; 

(B) a simple average of the estimated weightedaverage dumping margins calculated for the 

examined respondents; and (C) a weighted-average 

of the estimated weighted-average dumping margins 

calculated for the examined respondents using each 

company’s publicly-ranged U.S. sales values 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, 53662 

(September 1, 2010), and accompanying Issues and 

Decision Memorandum at Comment 1. As complete 

publicly ranged sales data were available, 

Commerce based the all others rate on the publicly 

ranged sales data of the mandatory respondents. For 

a complete analysis of the data, see the All Others 

Rate Calculation Memorandum. 

In this investigation, Commerce 

calculated estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins for Ownes America 

and Fevisa that are not zero, de minimis, 

or based entirely on facts otherwise 

available. Commerce calculated the allothers rate using a weighted average of 

the estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins calculated for the 

examined respondents using each 

company’s publicly-ranged values for 

the merchandise under consideration.9

Final Determination 

Commerce determines that the 

following estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins exist:

Disclosure 

Commerce intends to disclose the 

calculations performed in connection 

with this final determination to 

interested parties within five days of 

any public announcement or, if there is 

no public announcement, within five 

days of the date of publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

In accordance with section 

735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, Commerce will 

instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to continue to suspend 

liquidation of all entries of subject 

merchandise, as described in Appendix 

I of this notice, which were entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after August 9, 2024, 

the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination in the 

Federal Register. These suspension of 

liquidation instructions will remain in 

effect until further notice. 

Pursuant to section 735(c)(1)(B)(ii) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(d), upon 

the publication of this notice, we will 

instruct CBP to require a cash deposit 

for estimated antidumping duties for 

such entries as follows: (1) the cash 

deposit rate for the respondents listed in 

the table above is the company-specific 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margins listed for the respondents in the 

table; (2) if the exporter is not a 

respondent listed in the table above, but 

the producer is, then the cash deposit 

rate is the company-specific estimated 

weighted-average dumping margins 

listed for the producer of the subject 

merchandise in the table above; and (3) 

the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers and exporters is the all-others 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margins listed in the table above. 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

Notification 

In accordance with section 735(d) of 

the Act, Commerce will notify the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) of 

its final affirmative determination of 

sales at LTFV. Because Commerce’s 

final determination is affirmative, in 

accordance with section 735(b)(2) of the 

Act, the ITC will make its final 

determination as to whether the 

domestic industry in the United States 

is materially injured, or threatened with 

material injury, by reason of imports or 

sales (or the likelihood of sales) for 

importation of aluminum extrusions no 

later than 45 days after this final 

determination. If the ITC determines 

that such injury does not exist, this 

proceeding will be terminated, all cash 

deposits posted will be refunded, and 

suspension of liquidation will be lifted. 

If the ITC determines that such injury 

does exist, Commerce will issue an 

antidumping duty order directing CBP 

to assess, upon further instruction by 

Commerce, antidumping duties on all 

imports of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the effective 

date of the suspension of liquidation, as 

discussed in the ‘‘Continuation of 

Suspension of Liquidation’’ section 

above. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice serves as the only 

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 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 

This final determination and notice 

are issued and published in accordance 

with sections 735(d) and 777(i) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.210(c). 

Dated: December 23, 2024.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance.
