For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by MCC 

EuroChem for which it did not know its 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, 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. For a full discussion,

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following deposit requirements 

will be effective upon publication of the 

notice of final results of administrative 

review for all shipments of solid urea 

from Russia entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption on or after 

the date of publication as provided by 

section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash 

deposit rate for MCC EuroChem will be 

0.00 percent, the weighted average 

dumping margin established in the final 

results of this administrative review; (2) 

for previously reviewed or investigated 

companies not listed above, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original investigation but 

the manufacturer is, the cash deposit 

rate will be the rate established for the 

manufacturer of the merchandise for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding; (4) the cash deposit rate for 

all other manufacturers or exporters will 

continue to be 64.93 percent, the allothers rate established in the original

These cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

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 entries 

during this review period. Failure to 

comply with this requirement could 

result in the Secretary’s presumption 

that reimbursement of antidumping 

duties occurred and the subsequent 

assessment of double antidumping 

duties. 

Administrative Protective Orders 

This notice also serves as a 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 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. 

The Department is issuing and 

publishing these final results of 

administrative review in accordance 

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

the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h).

Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags From 

Taiwan: Affirmative Final 

Determination of Circumvention of the 

Antidumping Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) determines that 

imports of unfinished polyethylene 

retail carrier bags (PRCBs) from Taiwan 

are circumventing the antidumping duty 

order on PRCBs from Taiwan.1

DATES: Effective October 9, 2014.

respectively. 

Background 

We initiated an anti-circumvention 

inquiry of the antidumping duty order 

on PRCBs from Taiwan on July 31, 2013, 

pursuant to section 781(a) of the Tariff 

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

19 CFR 351.225(g).2 We published the 

affirmative preliminary determination 

on June 2, 2014, finding that imports of 

unfinished PRCBs from Taiwan are 

circumventing the Order.3

We invited interested parties to 

comment on the Preliminary 

Determination. We received no 

comments. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the Order 

is PRCBs which may be referred to as tshirt sacks, merchandise bags, grocery 

bags, or checkout bags. The subject 

merchandise is defined as non-sealable 

sacks and bags with handles (including 

drawstrings), without zippers or integral 

extruded closures, with or without 

gussets, with or without printing, of 

polyethylene film having a thickness no 

greater than 0.035 inch (0.889 mm) and 

no less than 0.00035 inch (0.00889 mm), 

and with no length or width shorter 

than 6 inches (15.24 cm) or longer than 

40 inches (101.6 cm). The depth of the 

bag may be shorter than 6 inches but not 

longer than 40 inches (101.6 cm). PRCBs 

are typically provided without any 

consumer packaging and free of charge 

by retail establishments, e.g., grocery, 

drug, convenience, department, 

specialty retail, discount stores, and 

restaurants, to their customers to 

package and carry their purchased 

products. The scope of the order 

excludes (1) polyethylene bags that are 

not printed with logos or store names 

and that are closeable with drawstrings 

made of polyethylene film and (2) 

polyethylene bags that are packed in 

consumer packaging with printing that 

refers to specific end-uses other than

packaging and carrying merchandise 

from retail establishments, e.g., garbage 

bags, lawn bags, trash-can liners. 

Imports of the subject merchandise are 

currently classifiable under statistical 

category 3923.21.0085 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). This 

subheading also covers products that are 

outside the scope of the order. 

Furthermore, although the HTSUS 

subheading is provided for convenience 

and customs purposes, our written 

description of the scope of the order is 

dispositive. 

Scope of the Circumvention Inquiry 

This circumvention inquiry covers 

merchandise from Taiwan that appears 

ready to undergo the final processing of 

cutting the unfinished PRCBs to length, 

sealing the bottoms, and die-cutting the 

unfinished PRCBs to create the handles 

of the finished PRCBs. The unfinished 

PRCBs subject to this inquiry may or 

may not have printing and may be of 

different dimensions as long as they 

otherwise meet the description of the 

scope of the order. 

Final Determination 

In the Preliminary Determination, we 

determined that imports of unfinished 

PRCBs from Taiwan are circumventing 

the Order. Specifically, we determined 

that imports of unfinished PRCBs from 

Taiwan are being completed and sold in 

the United States pursuant to the 

statutory and regulatory criteria laid out 

in section 781(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.225(g). We based our Preliminary 

Determination upon record evidence 

submitted by the petitioners and an 

importer, SmileMakers, Inc. For a 

complete discussion of the evidence 

which led to our preliminary 

determination, see the Preliminary 

Determination.4

Because no party provided any 

additional information or comments 

regarding our Preliminary 

Determination, our final determination 

remains unchanged from the 

Preliminary Determination. 

Accordingly, we determine, pursuant to 

section 781(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.225(g), that imports of unfinished 

PRCBs from the Taiwan are 

circumventing the Order. 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

As a result of this determination, and 

consistent with 19 CFR 351.225(l)(3), we 

intend to direct U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection to continue to 

suspend liquidation and to require a 

cash deposit of estimated antidumping 

duties at the applicable rate on 

unliquidated entries of merchandise 

subject to this inquiry that are entered, 

or withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after July 31, 2013, 

the date of publication of the initiation 

of this inquiry.5

Notifications to Interested Parties 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to the 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

return or destruction of proprietary 

information disclosed under APO in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. 

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 violation which is subject to 

sanction. 

This determination of circumvention 

is in accordance with section 781(a) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.225(g).
