    \2\ See memorandum to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance, from Gary Taverman, Associate Deputy 
Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results 
of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Large Residential 
Washers from the Republic of Korea,'' dated concurrently with and 
adopted by this notice (Issues and Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department conducted this administrative review in accordance 
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Scope of the Order

    The products covered by the order are all large residential washers 
and certain subassemblies thereof from Korea. The products are 
currently classifiable under subheadings 8450.20.0040 and 8450.20.0080 
of the Harmonized Tariff System of the United States (HTSUS). Products 
subject to this order may also enter under HTSUS subheadings 
8450.11.0040, 8450.11.0080, 8450.90.2000, and 8450.90.6000. Although 
the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs 
purposes, the written description of the merchandise subject to this 
scope is dispositive.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ A full description of the scope of the order is contained in 
the Issues and Decision Memorandum. The HTSUS numbers are revised 
from the numbers previously stated in the scope. See Memorandum to 
The File (MTF) entitled ``Changes to the HTS Numbers to the ACE Case 
Reference Files for the Antidumping Duty Orders,'' dated January 6, 
2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in 
the Issues and Decision Memorandum. 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 Appendix I.

Final Results of the Review

    Based on our analysis of the comments received, we made changes to 
the weighted-average dumping margin calculation for LGE. No party 
submitted comments on the Department's preliminary decision to assign 
Daewoo and Samsung a margin based on adverse facts available (AFA) for 
their failure to respond to our request for information.\4\ As the 
facts with respect to these two respondents remain the same, we made no 
changes to the rate assigned to them as AFA in these final results.\5\ 
Therefore, we are assigning the following weighted-average dumping

margins for the period August 3, 2012, through January 31, 2014: \6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Preliminary Results, 80 FR 12457.
    \5\ This rate equals the AFA rate of 82.41 percent adjusted for 
export subsidies totaling 3.30 percent assigned to Daewoo in the 
final determination of the CVD investigation of LRWs from Korea. See 
MTF, entitled ``Source Documentation Relevant to Export Subsidy 
Adjustments,'' dated concurrently with this notice, at Attachment I.
    \6\ This rate equals the AFA rate of 82.41 percent adjusted for 
an export subsidy in the amount of 0.06 percent assigned to Samsung 
in the final determination of the CVD investigation of LRWs from 
Korea. Id., at Attachment II.

Disclosure and Public Comment

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

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), the Department determined, and U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of 
this review. The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment 
instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of the final 
results of this administrative review.
    For those sales where LGE reported the entered value of its U.S. 
sales, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates 
based on the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated 
for the examined sales to the total entered value of the examined sales 
to that importer. For those sales where LGE did not report the entered 
value of its U.S. sales, we calculated importer-specific customer-
specific per-unit duty assessment rates by aggregating the total amount 
of antidumping duties calculated for the examined sales and dividing 
this amount by the total quantity of those sales. To determine whether 
the duty assessment rate is de minimis, in accordance with the 
requirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we calculated an 
importer-specific ad valorem ratio based on the estimated entered 
value. Where an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis 
(i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the Department will instruct CBP to 
liquidate these entries without regard to antidumping duties pursuant 
to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
    For Daewoo's and Samsung's U.S. sales, we based the assessment rate 
assigned to the corresponding entries on the weighted-average dumping 
margins listed above.
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003.\7\ If applicable, this clarification will apply to entries 
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by LGE, for which the 
company did not know that its merchandise was destined for the United 
States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate these 
entries at the all-others rate established in the less-than fair-value 
(LTFV) investigation, 11.80 percent,\8\ if there is no rate for the 
intermediary involved in the transaction. See Assessment Policy Notice 
for a full discussion of this clarification.

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 the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication, as 
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates 
for Daewoo, LGE, and Samsung will be equal to the weighted-average 
dumping margins established in the final results of this administrative 
review, as shown above; (2) for merchandise exported by manufacturers 
or exporters not covered in this administrative 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 recently-completed 
segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a 
prior review, or the original LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer 
is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most 
recently-completed segment of this proceeding for the manufacturer of 
the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 
manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 11.80 percent, the all-
others rate determined in the LTFV investigation.\9\ These cash deposit 
requirements, 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) to file a certificate regarding 
the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing 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 and/or countervailing 
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping 
duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written 
notification of 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.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a)(1) and 
777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: September, 8, 2015.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
