Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on our review of the record and comments received from 
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we made certain 
revisions to the margin calculations for Jacobi, Datong Juqiang, and 
the non-examined, separate rate respondents.\7\ Further, the Issues and 
Decision Memorandum contains descriptions of these revisions.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Memoranda, ``Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of

Memorandum for Datong Juqiang Activated Carbon Co., Ltd., '' dated 
concurrently with this memorandum.
    \8\ See Issues and Decisions Memorandum at 4-5 for a summary of 
these revisions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Determination of No Shipments

    In the Preliminary Results, the Department preliminarily determined 
that Calgon Carbon (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., Sinoacarbon International 
Trading Co., Ltd., and Shanxi Dapu International Trade Co., Ltd. had no 
shipments during the period of review (POR).\9\ We received no 
information to contradict this determination. Therefore, the Department 
continues to determine that Calgon Carbon (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., 
Sinoacarbon International Trading Co., Ltd., and Shanxi Dapu 
International Trade Co., Ltd. had no shipments of subject merchandise 
during the POR, and will issue appropriate liquidation instructions 
that are consistent with our ``automatic assessment'' clarification, 
for these final results.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Preliminary Results at 21195.
    \10\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 4, 2011) (Assessment 
Practice Refinement).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rate Respondents

    In our Preliminary Results, we determined that Jacobi, Datong 
Juqiang, and 13 other companies demonstrated their eligibility for 
separate rates.\11\ We have received no comments or argument since the 
issuance of the Preliminary Results that provides a basis for 
reconsideration of these determinations. Therefore, for these final 
results, we continue to find that the 13 companies listed in the table 
in the ``Final Results'' section of this notice are eligible for a 
separate rate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See Preliminary Results, 82 FR 21196, and accompanying 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum at 7-9.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rate for Non-Examined Separate Rate Respondents

    The statute and the Department's regulations do not address the 
establishment of a rate to be assigned to respondents not selected for 
individual examination when the Department limits its examination of 
companies subject to the administrative review pursuant to section 
777A(c)(2)(B) of the Act. Generally, the Department looks to section 
735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the 
all-others rate in an investigation, for guidance when calculating the 
rate for respondents not individually examined in an administrative 
review. Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act articulates a preference for 
not calculating an all-others rate using rates which are zero, de 
minimis, or based entirely on facts available.\12\ Accordingly, the 
Department's usual practice has been to determine the dumping margin 
for companies not individually examined by averaging the weighted-
average dumping margins for the individually examined respondents, 
excluding rates that are zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts 
available.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Ball Bearings and Parts Thereof from France, Germany, 
Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom: Final Results of Antidumping 
Duty Administrative Reviews and Rescission of Reviews in Part, 73 FR 
52823, 52824 (September 11, 2008), and accompanying Issues and 
Decision Memorandum(IDM) at Comment 16.
    \13\ See, e.g., Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than 
Fair Value and Partial Affirmative Determination of Critical 
Circumstances: Certain Polyester Staple Fiber from the People's 
Republic of China, 71 FR 77373, 77377 (December 26, 2006), unchanged 
in Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Partial 
Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances: Certain 
Polyester Staple Fiber from the People's Republic of China, 72 FR 
19690 (April 19, 2007).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the Preliminary Results,\14\ the Department calculated rates for 
Datong Juqiang and Jacobi that were not zero, de minimis, or based 
entirely on facts

[[Page 51609]]

available. However, for these final results, the calculated rate for 
Datong Juqiang is zero, and the calculated rate for Jacobi continues to 
be above de minimis. Therefore, the Department has assigned to the 
companies that have not been individually examined, but have 
demonstrated their eligibility for a separate rate, Jacobi's calculated 
rate for these final results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at 10-11.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of the Review

    For companies subject to this review, which established their 
eligibility for a separate rate, the Department determines that the 
following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the POR from April 
1, 2015, through March 31, 2016:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Weighted-
                                                              average
                        Exporter                              dumping
                                                           margin (USD/
                                                             kg) \15\

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

    In the Preliminary Results, the Department found that 186 companies 
for which a review was requested did not establish eligibility for a 
separate rate because they did not file a separate rate application or 
a separate rate certification, as appropriate. No interested party 
commented on the Department's preliminary determination with respect to 
these 186 companies. Therefore, for these final results we determine 
these companies, listed in Appendix II of this notice, to be part of 
the PRC-wide entity. Because no party requested a review of the PRC-
wide entity, and the Department no longer considers the PRC-wide entity 
as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative reviews,\17\ we 
did not conduct a review of the PRC-wide entity. Thus, the weighted-
average dumping margin for the PRC-wide entity (i.e., 2.42 USD/kg) \18\ 
is not subject to change as a result of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ In the second administrative review of the Order, the 
Department determined that it would calculate per-unit weighted-
average dumping margins and assessment rates for all future reviews. 
See Certain Activated Carbon from the People's Republic of China: 
Final Results and Partial Rescission of Second Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 75 FR 70208, 70211 (November 17, 2010) (AR2 
Carbon), and accompanying IDM at Comment 3.
    \16\ In the third administrative review of the Order, the 
Department found that Jacobi Carbons AB, Tianjin Jacobi 
International Trading Co. Ltd., and Jacobi Carbons Industry 
(Tianjin) are a single entity and, because there were no facts 
presented on the record of this review which would call into 
question our prior finding, we continue to treat these companies as 
part of a single entity for this administrative review, pursuant to 
sections 771(33)(E), (F), and (G) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.401(f). 
See Certain Activated Carbon from the People's Republic of China:

4, 2013).

Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review; 2012-2013, 79 FR 70163, 70165 (November 25, 2014).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), 
the Department has determined, and U.S Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries 
covered by this review. The Department intends to issue assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date of these final 
results of review.
    For each individually-examined respondent in this review which has 
a final weighted-average dumping margin that is not zero or de minimis 
(i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will calculate importer- (or 
customer-) specific per-unit duty assessment rates based on the ratio 
of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's (or 
customer's) examined sales to the total sales quantity associated with 
those sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\19\ The 
Department will also calculate (estimated) ad valorem importer-specific 
assessment rates with which to assess whether the per-unit assessment 
rates are de minimis. Where either the respondent's weighted-average 
dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer- (or cus- tomer-) 
specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to 
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping 
duties.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ See AR2 Carbon, and accompanying IDM at Comment 3.
    \20\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the respondents which were not selected for individual 
examination in this administrative review and which qualified for a 
separate rate, the assessment rate will be equal to the rate assigned 
to them for the final results (i.e. the 0.22 USD/kg rate for Jacobi).
    For the companies identified in Appendix II as part of the PRC-wide 
entity, we will instruct CBP to apply a per-unit assessment rate of 
2.42 USD/kg to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR which 
were produced or exported by those companies.
    Pursuant to a refinement in the Department's non-market economy 
practice, for sales that were not reported in the U.S. sales data 
submitted by companies individually examined during this review, the 
Department will instruct CBP to liquidate entries associated with those 
sales at the rate for the PRC-wide entity. Furthermore, where the 
Department found that an exporter under review had no shipments of the 
subject merchandise, any suspended entries that entered under that 
exporter's case number (i.e., at that exporter's cash deposit rate) 
will be liquidated at the rate for the PRC-wide entity.\21\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Assessment 
Practice Refinement, 76 FR at 65694.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following per-unit cash deposit requirements will be effective 
upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for 
all shipments of the subject merchandise from the PRC entered, or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication 
date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For Jacobi, 
Datong Juqiang, and the non-examined, separate rate respondents, the 
cash deposit rate will be equal to their weighted-average dumping 
margins established in the final results of this review; (2) for 
previously investigated or reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters not 
listed above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the exporter-specific rate published for the most 
recently completed segment of this proceeding in which they were 
reviewed; (3) for all PRC exporters of subject merchandise that have 
not been found to be entitled to a separate rate,

[[Page 51610]]

the cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-average dumping 
margin for the PRC-wide entity (i.e., 2.42 USD/kg); and (4) for all 
non-PRC exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their 
own separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to 
the PRC exporter(s) that supplied that non-PRC exporter. These per-unit 
cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

Disclosure

    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).

Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties

    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 Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties has occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties 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 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 
terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction.
    We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative 
review and notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of 
the Act.

    Dated: November 1, 2017.
