SUMMARY: On June 8, 2015, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the fifth administrative review of the antidumping duty order on citric acid and certain citrate salts (citric acid) from Canada.\1\ The review covers one producer and exporter of the subject merchandise, Jungbunzlauer Canada Inc. (JBL Canada). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ See Citric Acid and Certain Citrate Salts from Canada: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2013- 2014, 80 FR 32342 (June 8, 2015) (Preliminary Results). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on our analysis of the comments received, we made changes to our margin calculations. The final weighted-average dumping margin for JBL Canada is listed below in the ``Final Results of the Review'' section of this notice. DATES: Effective Date: October 15, 2015. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rebecca Trainor or Kate Johnson, AD/ CVD Operations, Office II, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution [[Page 62017]] Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone (202) 482-4007 or (202) 482-4929, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On June 8, 2015, the Department published the Preliminary Results. We invited parties to comment on the preliminary results of the review. We received a case brief from Archer Daniels Midland Company, Cargill, Incorporated, and Tate & Lyle Ingredients Americas LLC (collectively, the petitioners) on July 8, 2015, and a rebuttal brief from JBL Canada on July 13, 2015. 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 merchandise covered by this order is citric acid and certain citrate salts from Canada. The product is currently classified under subheadings 2918.14.0000, 2918.15.1000, 2918.15.5000, and 3824.90.9290 of the Harmonized Tariff System of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of merchandise subject to the scope is dispositive.\2\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \2\ A full description of the scope of the order is contained in the memorandum to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the 2013-2014 Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Citric Acid and Certain Citrate Salts from Canada'' (Issues and Decision Memorandum), dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Period of Review The POR is May 1, 2013, through April 30, 2014. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised by parties in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues raised is attached to this notice as Appendix I. 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 http://access.trade.gov; the Issues and Decision Memorandum is available to all parties in the Central Records Unit (CRU), Room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed and electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and comments received from interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we recalculated JBL Canada's weighted-average dumping margin. Our calculations are discussed in detail in the accompanying final calculation memorandum.\3\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \3\ See Memorandum to the File entitled, ``Final Results Margin Calculations for Jungbunzlauer Canada Inc.,'' dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Results of the Review We determine that a weighted-average dumping margin of 0.00 percent exists for entries of subject merchandise that were produced and/or exported by JBL Canada and that entered, or were withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the POR. Assessment Rates 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 appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 41 days after publication of these final results of review. Because we have calculated a zero margin for JBL Canada in the final results of this review, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on May 6, 2003.\4\ This clarification applies to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by JBL Canada for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate effective during the POR if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. See Assessment Policy Notice for a full discussion of this clarification. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003) (Assessment Policy Notice). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for JBL Canada will be that established in the final results of this review, (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a previous review, or the original less- than-fair-value (LTFV) 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; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 23.21 percent, the all-others rate made effective by the LTFV investigation.\5\ These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \5\ See Citric Acid and Certain Citrate Salts from Canada and the People's Republic of China: Antidumping Duty Orders, 74 FR 25703 (May 29, 2009) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 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. Notification to Interested Parties In accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 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, which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. 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 the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. This administrative review and notice are published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. [[Page 62018]] Dated: October 6, 2015.
