producer/exporter chains from the 

antidumping duty Order: 28

Accordingly, the Department will direct 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) to release any bonds or other 

security and refund cash deposits 

pertaining to any suspended entries 

from the three aforementioned 

producer-exporter combinations. This 

exclusion does not apply beyond the 

three producer-exporter combinations 

referenced above. 

We note, however, that pursuant to 

Timken the suspension of liquidation 

must continue during the pendency of 

the appeals process. Thus, we will 

instruct CBP to suspend liquidation of 

all unliquidated entries from the three 

aforementioned producer-exporter 

combinations at a cash deposit rate of 

0.00 percent which are entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption after August 27, 2017, 

which is ten days after the CIT’s final 

decision, in accordance with section 

516A of the Act.29 If the CIT’s ruling is 

not appealed, or if appealed and upheld, 

the Department will instruct CBP to 

terminate the suspension of liquidation 

and to liquidate entries subject to the 

three producer-exporter combination 

rates stated above without regard to 

antidumping duties. As a result of the 

exclusion, the Department is 

discontinuing the ongoing fifth 

administrative review covering the 

period June 1, 2016, through May 31, 

2017, which only pertains to BTIC’s 

entries during that period of review,30

and the Department will not initiate any 

new administrative reviews of BTIC’s 

entries pursuant to the antidumping 

Order.31

Lastly, we note that, at this time, the 

Department remains enjoined by Court 

order from liquidating entries that were 

exported by BTIC, and were entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption during the period 

December 16, 2011, through May 31, 

2016. These entries will remain 

enjoined pursuant to the terms of the 

injunction during the pendency of any 

appeals process. 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 516A(c)(1) and 

(e) of the Act.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the Department) is amending the final 

results of the countervailing duty 

administrative review of crystalline 

silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or 

not assembled into modules (solar 

cells), from the People’s Republic of 

China (PRC) to correct ministerial 

errors. The period of review (POR) is 

January 1, 2014, through December 31, 

2014. 

DATES: Applicable October 6, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In accordance with section 751(a)(1) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5), on 

July 17, 2017, the Department published 

its final results in the countervailing 

duty administrative review of solar cells 

from the PRC.1 On July 28, 2017, 

Canadian Solar Manufacturing 

(Changshu) Inc. and its cross-owned 

affiliates (collectively, Canadian Solar) 

timely alleged that the Department 

made two ministerial errors in the Final 

Results.2 No other parties submitted 

ministerial error allegations or 

comments on Canadian Solar’s 

allegations. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by this 

order is crystalline silicon photovoltaic 

cells, and modules, laminates, and 

panels, consisting of crystalline silicon 

photovoltaic cells, whether or not 

partially or fully assembled into other 

products, including, but not limited to, 

modules, laminates, panels and building 

integrated materials. The merchandise 

covered by this order is currently 

classified in the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

under subheadings 8501.61.0000, 

8507.20.80, 8541.40.6020, 8541.40.6030, 

and 8501.31.8000. While these HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, our 

written description of the scope, which 

is contained in the Decision 

Memorandum accompanying the Final 

Results, is dispositive.3

Ministerial Errors 

Section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.224(f) define a ‘‘ministerial error’’ as 

an error ‘‘in addition, subtraction, or 

other arithmetic function, clerical error 

resulting from inaccurate copying, 

duplication, or the like, and any other 

similar type of unintentional error 

which the Secretary considers 

ministerial.’’ As discussed in the 

Department’s Ministerial Error 

Memorandum, the Department finds 

that the errors alleged by Canadian Solar 

constitute ministerial errors within the 

meaning of 19 CFR 351.224(f).4

Specifically, we made ministerial errors 

with regard to calculating the benefit 

Canadian Solar received from the 


asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 193 / Friday, October 6, 2017 / Notices 46761 

5See the Ministerial Error Memorandum for a 

complete discussion of these alleged errors. 

6See Final Results, 82 FR at 32680. 

7Consistent with the Final Results, for the nonselected companies, we calculated a rate by weightaveraging the calculated subsidy rates of the two 

mandatory respondents (i.e., Canadian Solar and 

Changzhou Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd. and its 

cross-owned affiliates) using their publicly-ranged 

sales data for exports of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. 

8See Final Results, 82 FR at 32680. Cross-owned 

affiliates are: Canadian Solar Inc.; Canadian Solar 

Manufacturing (Luoyang) Inc.; CSI Cells Co., Ltd.; 

CSI Solar Power (China) Inc.; CSI Solartronics 

(Changshu) Co., Ltd.; CSI Solar Technologies Inc.; 

and CSI Solar Manufacture Inc. 

9 Id. Cross-owned affiliates are: Trina Solar 

Limited; Trina Solar (Changzhou) Science & 

Technology Co., Ltd.; Yancheng Trina Solar Energy 

Technology Co., Ltd.; Changzhou Trina Solar 

Yabang Energy Co., Ltd.; Hubei Trina Solar Energy 

Co., Ltd.; Turpan Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd.; and 

Changzhou Trina PV Ribbon Materials Co., Ltd. 

10The CIT issued the preliminary injunctions in 

case numbers 17–00207, 17–00198, 17–00220, and 

17–00221, respectively. 

‘‘Preferential Policy Lending Program,’’ 

and in calculating the inland freight 

values when constructing Canadian 

Solar’s benchmark for programs 

regarding the provision of inputs for less 

than adequate remuneration.5

In accordance with section 751(h) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are 

amending the Final Results.6

Specifically, we are amending the net 

subsidy rates for Canadian Solar and for 

the 17 companies for which a review 

was requested that were not selected as 

mandatory company respondents (i.e., 

the non-selected companies).7 The 

revised net subsidies rates are provided 

below. 

Amended Final Results 

As result of correcting the ministerial 

errors, we determine that that the

Assessment Rates/Cash Deposits 

Normally, the Department would 

issue appropriate assessment 

instructions to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) 15 days after the date 

of publication of these amended final 

results of review, to liquidate shipments 

of subject merchandise produced and/or 

exported by the companies listed above 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after January 1, 

2014, through December 31, 2014. 

However, on August 3, 8, and 17, 2017, 

and on September 8, 2017, the U.S. 

Court of International Trade (CIT) 

preliminarily enjoined liquidation of 

certain entries that are subject to the 

Final Results.10 Accordingly, the 

Department will not instruct CBP to 

assess countervailing duties on those 

enjoined entries pending resolution of 

the associated litigation. 

The Department intends to instruct 

CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties, in the 

amounts shown above for the 

companies listed above, on shipments of 

subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after July 17, 2017, 

which is the date of publication of the 

Final Results. For all non-reviewed 

firms, we will instruct CBP to collect 

cash deposits at the most-recent 

company specific or all-others rate 

applicable to the company, as 

appropriate. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice also serves a reminder to 

parties that are subject to 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(a)(3), which 

continues to government business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return/destruction of 

APO materials, or conversion to judicial 

protective order, is hereby requested. 

Failure to comply with the regulations 

and the terms of an APO is a 

sanctionable violation. 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed for these amended final 

results to interested parties within five 

business days of the date of the 

publication of this notice in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results in accordance with sections 

751(h) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.224(e).

of the antidumping duty orders on 

certain circular welded non-alloy steel 

pipe from Brazil, Mexico, the Republic 

of Korea, and Taiwan and certain 

circular welded carbon steel pipes and 

tubes from Taiwan would be likely to 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

dumping. The magnitude of the 

dumping margins likely to prevail are 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Sunset 

Review’’ section of this notice.
