SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the Preliminary 

Results of this review on November 4, 

2021.1 On December 21, 2021, 

Commerce issued a post-preliminary 

analysis relating to two programs.2 On 

February 25, 2022, Commerce extended 

the deadline for the final results of this 

administrative review until May 3, 

2022.3 For a complete description of the 

events that occurred since the 

Preliminary Results, see the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum.4

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by this order is 

hot-rolled steel. For a complete 

description of the scope of this order, 

see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

We addressed all issues raised in 

interested parties’ case briefs in the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum 

accompanying this notice. A list of the 

issues raised by parties, to which 

Commerce responded in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum, is provided as 

an 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 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 http://access.trade.gov/public/ 

FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

After evaluating the comments 

received from interested parties and 

record information, we have made 

certain changes to our analysis, but have 

made no changes to the net subsidy rate 

calculated for Hyundai Steel. For a 

discussion of these comments, 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 countervailable, we find that 

there is a subsidy, i.e., a governmentprovided financial contribution that 

gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, 

and that the subsidy is specific.5 For a 

description of the methodology 

underlying Commerce’s conclusions, 

see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Final Rate for Non-Selected Company 

Under Review 

There is one company in this review 

that was not selected as a mandatory 

respondent, i.e., POSCO. Because the 

subsidy rate calculated for mandatory 

respondent Hyundai Steel was above de 

minimis and not based entirely on facts 

available, we are applying that rate to 

POSCO. This methodology for 

establishing the subsidy rate for the 

non-selected company is consistent 

with our practice and with section 

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

Final Results of Administrative Review 

We determine that, for the period 

January 1, 2019, through December 31, 

2019, the following net countervailable 

subsidy rates exist: 

Company 

Subsidy rate 

(percent 

ad valorem) 

Hyundai Steel Company 6 .... 0.56 

POSCO ................................. 0.56 

Disclosure 

Normally, Commerce discloses to 

interested parties the calculations 

performed in connection with final 

results within five days of any public 

announcement or, if there is no public 

announcement, within five days of the 

date of publication of the notice of final 

determination in the Federal Register, 

in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

However, because there are no changes 

from the Preliminary Results and PostPreliminary Analysis, there are no new 

calculations to disclose. 

Assessment Rate 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C), 

Commerce will determine, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, countervailing duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

final results of this review. 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 

In accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce 

intends to instruct CBP to collect cash 

deposits of estimated countervailing 

duties in the amounts shown for the 

companies listed above. For all nonreviewed firms, we will instruct CBP to 

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 deposits, 

when imposed, shall remain in effect 

until further notice.

Taking of Marine Mammals Incidental 

to Specific Activities 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice; issuance of incidental 

harassment authorization. 

SUMMARY: NMFS has received a request 

from the City of Hoonah (City) for the 

re-issuance of a previously issued 

incidental harassment authorization 

(IHA) with the only change being 

effective dates. The initial IHA 

authorized take of nine species of 

marine mammals, by Level A and Level 

B harassment, incidental to pile driving 

activities associated with construction 

upgrades of a cargo dock at the cityowned Hoonah Marine Industrial Center 

(HMIC) in Port Frederick Inlet on 

Chichagof Island in Hoonah, Alaska. 

The project has been delayed and none 

of the work covered in the initial IHA 

has been conducted. The initial IHA 

was effective from May 7, 2021, through 

May 6, 2022. The City has requested reissuance with new effective dates of 

October 1, 2022 through September 30, 

2023. The scope of the activities and 

anticipated effects remain the same, 

authorized take numbers are not 

changed, and the required mitigation, 

monitoring, and reporting remains the 

same as included in the initial IHA. 

NMFS is, therefore, issuing a second 

identical IHA to cover the incidental 

take analyzed and authorized in the 

initial IHA. 

DATES: This authorization is effective 

from October 1, 2022 through 

September 30, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: An electronic copy of the 

final 2021 IHA previously issued to the 

City, the City’s application, and the 

Federal Register notices proposing and 

issuing the initial IHA may be obtained
