Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in the parties' briefs are addressed in the 
Issues and Decision Memorandum, dated concurrently with, and hereby 
adopted by, this notice. A list of issues addressed is attached as an 
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; 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.

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 found countervailable, we find 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.\4\ For a full description of the methodology underlying 
Commerce's conclusions, including any determination that relied upon 
the use of adverse facts available pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) 
of the Act, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review for No Shipments

    In the Preliminary Results, we stated our intention to rescind the 
review with respect to certain companies that submitted no shipment 
certifications.\5\ We inquired with U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) whether these companies had shipped merchandise to the United 
States during this review period, and CBP provided no evidence to 
contradict the claims made by these companies. Because no evidence of 
shipments was placed on the record following the Preliminary Results to 
contradict those claims, we are rescinding the administrative review of 
Guangdong Xin Wei Aluminum Products Co., Ltd., Xin Wei Aluminum Co. 
Ltd., and Xin Wei Aluminum Company Limited, pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Preliminary Results and accompanying Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum at 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Administrative Review

    In accordance with 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5), we determine the following 
final net subsidy rates for the 2016 administrative review: \6\

Assessment Rates

    Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions 
directly to CBP, 15 days after publication of these final results of 
review, to liquidate shipments of subject merchandise entered, or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after January 1, 2016, 
through December 31, 2016, at the ad valorem rates listed above.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Commerce also intends to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of 
estimated countervailing duties in the amounts indicated above for each 
company listed 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 administrative review. For all 
non-reviewed firms, we will instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of 
estimated countervailing duties at the most recent company-specific or 
all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate. Accordingly, 
the cash deposit requirements that will be applied to companies covered 
by this order, but not examined in this administrative review, are 
those established in the most recently completed segment of the 
proceeding for each company. These cash deposit requirements, when 
imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as a 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 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.
    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: July 13, 2018.
