SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On July 6, 2021, based on timely 

requests for review, in accordance with 

19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an 

administrative review on nickel-plated 

steel products from Japan.1 This review 

covers one producer/exporter of the 

subject merchandise, Toyo Kohan. 

In January 2021, Commerce extended 

the preliminary results of this review to 

no later than May 31, 2022.2 For a 

complete description of the events that 

followed the initiation of this review, 

see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.3

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the Order 

is diffusion-annealed, nickel-plated flatrolled steel products from Japan. For a 

complete description of the scope of the 

Order, see Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with sections 751(a)(1)(B) 

and (2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). Export price is 

calculated in accordance with section 

772 of the Act. NV is calculated in 

accordance with section 773 of the Act. 

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

topics discussed in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is attached as 

the appendix to this notice. The 

Preliminary 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 Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at https://access.trade.gov/

Preliminary Results of the Review 

As a result of this review, we 

preliminarily determine that the 

following weighted-average dumping 

margin exists for the period May 1, 

2020, through April 30, 2021:

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce intends to disclose the 

calculations performed in connection 

with these preliminary results to 

interested parties within five days after 

the date of publication of this notice.4

Interested parties may submit case briefs 

to Commerce no later than 30 days after 

the date of publication of this notice.5

Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues raised 

in the case briefs, may be filed no later 

than seven days after the deadline for 

filing case briefs.6 Parties who submit 

case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this 

proceeding are encouraged to submit 

with each argument: (1) a statement of 

the issue; (2) a brief summary of the 

argument; and (3) a table of authorities.7

Case and rebuttal briefs should be filed 

using ACCESS.8

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, filed electronically via 

ACCESS within 30 days after the date of 

publication of this notice.9 Hearing 

requests should contain: (1) the party’s 

name, address, and telephone number; 

(2) the number of participants; and (3) 

a list of issues to be discussed. Oral 

presentations at the hearing will be 

limited to issues raised in the briefs. If 

a request for a hearing is made, parties 

will be notified of the time and date for 

the hearing.10 An electronically-filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on the established 

deadline. 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of its analysis of 

issues raised in any written briefs, not 

later than 120 days after the date of 

publication of this notice, unless 

otherwise extended.11

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of the 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries.12

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we 

calculated importer-specific ad valorem 

duty assessment rates based on the ratio 

of the total amount of dumping 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
34254 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 108 / Monday, June 6, 2022 / Notices 

13See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act. 14For a full discussion of this practice, see 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 

(May 6, 2003). 

15See Diffusion-Annealed, Nickel-Plated FlatRolled Steel Products from Japan: Antidumping 

Duty Order, 79 FR 30816 (May 29, 2014). 

calculated for the examined sales to the 

total entered value of the sales for which 

entered value was reported. Where 

either the respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de 

minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific 

rate is zero or de minimis, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties. The final results of this review 

shall be the basis for the assessment of 

antidumping duties on entries of 

merchandise covered by the final results 

of this review and for future deposits of 

estimated duties, where applicable.13

Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’ 

will apply to entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR produced 

by Toyo Kohan for which Toyo Kohan 

did not know that the merchandise it 

sold to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, 

trading company, or exporter) was 

destined for the United States. In such 

instances, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction.14

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 

listed above will be equal to the 

weighted-average dumping margin 

established in the final results of this 

review, except if the rate is less than 

0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis 

within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), in which case 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 cash deposit rate 

published for the most recently 

completed segment in which the 

company was reviewed; (3) if the 

exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review, a prior review, or the original 

less-than-fair-value (LTFV) 

investigation, but the producer is, then 

the cash deposit rate will be the cash 

deposit rate established for the most 

recently completed segment of this 

proceeding for the producer of the 

merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other producers or exporters 

will continue to be 45.42 percent, the 

all-others rate established in the LTFV 

investigation.15 These deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f) 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 Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of doubled 

antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

Commerce is issuing and publishing 

these results in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
