Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of this new shipper

(CBP) shall assess antidumping duties 

on all appropriate entries. If Bes ̧san’s 

weighted-average dumping margin is

the basis of the ratio of the total amount 

of antidumping duties calculated for an 

importer’s examined sales and the total 

entered value of such sales in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). 

If Bes ̧san’s weighted-average dumping 

margin is zero or de minimis in the final 

results of review, or an importer-specific 

rate is zero or de minimis, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 

entries without regard to dumping 

margins. 

We intend to issue instructions to 

CBP 15 days after publication of the 

final results of this review.

rate established in the final results of 

this new shipper review except if the 

rate is de minimis within the meaning 

of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case 

the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) for 

merchandise exported by manufacturers 

or exporters not covered in this review 

but covered in a prior segment of the 

proceeding, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the company-specific rate 

published for the most recent period in 

which the manufacturer or exporter 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original less-than-fairvalue investigation but the manufacturer 

is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recent period 

for the manufacturer of the 

merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate 

for all other manufacturers or exporters 

will continue to be 51.49 percent, the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Publication of this notice on the 

NCWM’s behalf is undertaken as a 

public service; NIST does not endorse, 

approve, or recommend any of the 

proposals or other information 

contained in this notice or in the 

publications of the NCWM. 

The NCWM is an organization of 

weights and measures officials of the 

states, counties, and cities of the United 

States, federal agencies, and 

representatives from the private sector. 

These meetings bring together 

government officials and representatives 

of business, industry, trade associations, 

and consumer organizations on subjects 

related to the field of weights and 

measures technology, administration, 

and enforcement. NIST participates to 

encourage cooperation between federal 

agencies and the states in the 

development of legal metrology 

requirements. NIST also promotes 

uniformity among the states in laws, 

regulations, methods, and testing 

equipment that comprise the regulatory 

control of commercial weighing and 

measuring devices, packaged goods, and 

other trade and commerce issues. 

The following are brief descriptions of 

some of the significant agenda items 

that will be considered at the NCWM 

Interim Meeting. Comments will be 

taken on these and other issues during 

several public comment sessions. At 

this stage, the items are proposals. This 

meeting also includes work sessions in 

which the Committees may also accept 

comments, and where recommendations 

will be developed for consideration and 

possible adoption at the NCWM 2015 

Annual Meeting. The Committees may 

withdraw or carryover items that need 

additional development. The 100th 

Annual Meeting of the NCWM will be 

held July 19 to 23, 2015, at The 

Sheraton Philadelphia Society Hill 

Hotel, 1 Dock Street, Philadelphia, 

Pennsylvania 19106. 

Some of the items listed below 

provide notice of projects under 

development by groups working to 

develop specifications, tolerances, and 

other requirements for devices used in 

the retail sales of engine fuels and the 

establishment of approximate gallon 

and liter equivalents to diesel fuel that 

would be used in marketing both 

compressed and liquefied natural gas. 

These notices are intended to make 

interested parties aware of these 

development projects and to make them 

aware that reports on the status of the 

project will be given at the Interim 

Meeting. The notices are also presented 

to invite the participation of 

manufacturers, experts, consumers, 

users, and others who may be interested 

in these efforts. 

The Specifications and Tolerances 

Committee (S&T Committee) will 

consider proposed amendments to NIST 

Handbook 44, ‘‘Specifications, 

Tolerances, and other Technical 

Requirements for Weighing and 

Measuring Devices.’’ Those items 

address weighing and measuring 

devices used in commercial 

applications, that is, devices that are 

used to buy from or sell to the public 

or used for determining the quantity of 

products or services sold among 

businesses. Issues on the agenda of the 

NCWM Laws and Regulations 

Committee (L&R Committee) relate to 

proposals to amend NIST Handbook 

130, ‘‘Uniform Laws and Regulations in 

the area of Legal Metrology and Engine 

Fuel Quality’’ and NIST Handbook 133,
