SUMMARY: On October 6, 2017, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the countervailing duty order on certain new pneumatic off-the-road tires (OTR [[Page 16056]] Tires) from the People's Republic of China (China). In the final results, Commerce has made changes to the subsidy rates that were preliminary determined for Guizhou Tyre for the period of review (POR) from January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2015. DATES: Applicable April 13, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chien-Min Yang or Jun Jack Zhao, AD/ CVD Operations, Office VII, Enforcement and Compliance, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5484 or (202) 482-1396. Background Commerce published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the countervailing duty order on certain new pneumatic off- the-road tires (OTR Tires) from China on October 6, 2017.\1\ In this review we individually examined two companies as mandatory respondents: Guizhou Tyre Co., Ltd. (Guizhou Tyre) and Xuzhou Xugong Tyres Co., Ltd. (Xuzhou Xugong). The period of review (POR) is January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2015. In the Preliminary Results we preliminarily applied total adverse facts available with regard to Xuzhou Xugong after it withdrew from participating in this review.\2\ No interested party commented on Commerce's preliminary determination with respect to Xuzhou Xugong. Accordingly, our determination remains unchanged for these final results. However, based on an analysis of the comments received, Commerce has made certain changes to the subsidy rates that were preliminary determined for Guizhou Tyre. The final subsidy rates are listed in the ``Final Results of Administrative Review'' section below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ See Certain New Pneumatic Off-The-Road Tires from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review; 2015, 82 FR 46754 (October 6, 2017) (Preliminary Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM). \2\ See PDM at 7-8. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Commerce exercised its discretion to toll all deadlines affected by the closure of the Federal Government from January 20 through 22, 2018. Accordingly, the revised deadline for the final results of this review was tolled to April 9, 2018. Scope of the Order The products covered by the scope are new pneumatic tires designed for off-the-road (OTR) and off-highway use. The subject merchandise is currently classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') subheadings: 4011.20.10.25, 4011.20.10.35, 4011.20.50.30, 4011.20.50.50, 4011.70.0010, 4011.62.00.00, 4011.80.1020, 4011.90.10, 4011.70.0050, 4011.80.1010, 4011.80.1020, 4011.80.2010, 4011.80.2020, 4011.80.8010, and 4011.80.8020. While HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope, which is contained in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum, is dispositive.\3\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \3\ For a full description of the scope of the order, see Memorandum from James Maeder, Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Gary Taverman, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance performing the duties of Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results in the Countervailing Duty Review of Certain New Pneumatic Off-the-Road Tires from the People's Republic of China; 2015,'' dated concurrently with this notice and herein incorporated by reference (Issues and Decision Memorandum). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Analysis of Comments Received The issues raised by Guizhou Tyre, the Government of the People's Republic of China (GOC), and Titan Tire Corporation (Titan) and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union, AFL-CIO-CLC (the USW) (collectively, the Petitioners) in their case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.\4\ The issues are identified in the Appendix to this notice. 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 and in the Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the internet at http://trade.gov/enforcement/frn/index.html. The signed Issues and Decision Memorandum and electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum at 9-14. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on the comments received from all interested parties, we have made revisions to some of our benefit calculations for Guizhou Tyre. For a discussion of these issues, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Methodology Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For each of the subsidy programs we found to be countervailable, we determined that there is a subsidy, i.e., a government-provided financial contribution that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that the subsidy is specific.\5\ For a description of the methodology underlying all of Commerce's conclusions, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \5\ See sections 771(5)(B) and (D) of the Act regarding financial contribution; section 771(5)(E) of the Act regarding benefit; and, section 771(5A) of the Act regarding specificity. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Results of Administrative Review In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5), we determined a countervailable subsidy rate for the period January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2015, for Guizhou Tyre, and a rate based on total AFA for Xuzhou Xugong. For the companies for which a review was requested but not selected for individual examination as mandatory respondents and which we are not finding to be cross-owned with the mandatory company respondents, we followed Commerce's practice, pursuant to 705(c)(5)(A)(i) of the Act, which is to base the subsidy rates on an average of the subsidy rates calculated, excluding de minimis rates or rates based entirely on adverse facts available.\6\ Therefore, we are basing the subsidy rate for the non-selected companies on the subsidy rate calculated for Guizhou Tyre. For a list of these non-selected companies, please see Appendix II to this notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \6\ See, e.g., Certain Pasta from Italy: Preliminary Results of the 13th (2008) Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 18806, 18811 (April 13, 2010) unchanged in Certain Pasta from Italy: Final Results of the 13th (2008) Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 37386 (June 29, 2010). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- We find the countervailable subsidy rates for the producers/ exporters under review to be as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subsidy rate Manufacturer/exporter (percent ad valorem) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Guizhou Tyre Co., Ltd./Guizhou Tyre Import & Export Co., 31.49 Ltd.................................................... Xuzhou Xugong Tyres Co., Ltd............................ 91.94 Non-Selected Companies Under Review..................... 31.49 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [[Page 16057]] Assessment and Cash Deposit Requirements In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), Commerce intends to issue appropriate instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 15 days after publication of the final results of this review. Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate shipments of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by the companies listed above, entered or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption from January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2015, at the percent rates, as listed above for each of the respective companies, of the entered value. Commerce intends also to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties, in the amounts shown above for each of the respective companies shown above, on shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of this review. For all non-reviewed firms, we will instruct CBP to continue to collect cash deposits at the most-recent company-specific or all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibilities 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. These final results are issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: April 9, 2018.
