Assessment of Duties

    Pursuant to the Court's Judgment, the Department shall instruct 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all 
shipments of floor-standing, metal-top ironing tables and certain parts 
thereof, from the PRC, which were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption during the period February 3, 2004-July 31, 2005, and 
that were produced or exported by Since Hardware at a rate of 72.29 
percent. The Department shall also instruct CBP to assess antidumping 
duties on all shipments of floor-standing, metal-top ironing tables and 
certain parts thereof, from the PRC, which were entered, or withdrawn 
from warehouse, for consumption during the

[[Page 1323]]

period August 1, 2005-July 31, 2006, and that were exported by Since 
Hardware at a rate of 72.29 percent. The Department intends to issue 
assessment instructions to CBP within 15 days after the date of 
publication of these amended final results of the reviews in the 
Federal Register.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Because Since Hardware has a superseding review,\5\ these amended 
finals do not establish a revised cash deposit rate for Since Hardware.

    \5\ See Floor-Standing, Metal-Top Ironing Tables and Certain 
Parts Thereof From the People's Republic of China: Notice of Court 
Decision Not in Harmony With Final Results and Notice of Amended 
Final Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2008-
2009, 80 FR 36507 (June 25, 2015) (2008-2009 Amended Final Results), 
assigning Since Hardware a rate of 83.83 percent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
    We are issuing this determination and publishing these amended 
final results of antidumping duty administrative review pursuant to the 
Court's Judgment.

    Dated: December 29, 2016.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
