this new shipper review are addressed in the Issues and Decision 
Memorandum, which is hereby adopted by this notice. A list of the 
issues which parties raised and to which we respond in the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as an Appendix. 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 https://access.trade.gov and 
it is available to all parties in the Central Records Unit, Room 7046

Final Results Margin

    The Department finds that the following weighted-average dumping 
margin exists for the exporter/producer combination listed below for 
the period July 19, 2013 through December 31, 2013:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    We intend to disclose to parties the calculations performed in this 
proceeding within five days of the date of public announcement of the 
results of this review in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results, the Department will determine, 
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(b). The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to 
CBP 15 days after the date of publication of the final results of 
review. Because Meihua's weighted-average dumping margin is zero, we 
will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard 
to antidumping duties. For entries that were not reported in the U.S. 
sales database submitted by Meihua, the Department will instruct CBP to 
liquidate such entries at the NME-wide rate.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Non-Market 
Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 
76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this new shipper review for 
shipments of the subject merchandise from the PRC entered, or withdrawn 
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as 
provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the ``Act''). For the exporter/producer combination listed 
above, the cash deposit rate will be 0.00 percent. This deposit 
requirement, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also 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 POR. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding APO

    This notice also serves as a reminder to the parties subject to 
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of business proprietary information 
(``BPI'') disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 
which continues to govern BPI in this segment of the proceeding. Timely 
notification of 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.
    This determination is issued and published in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: May 18, 2015.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
