SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On July 2, 2018, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of the 
administrative review of hot-rolled steel from China.\1\ We invited 
parties to submit comments on the Preliminary Results, but we received 
no comments. Commerce conducted this administrative review in 
accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from the 
People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2016-2017, 83 FR 30912 (July 2, 2018) 
(Preliminary Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The products covered by the order are certain hot-rolled carbon 
steel flat products of a rectangular shape, of a width of 0.5 inch or 
greater, neither clad, plated, nor coated with metal and whether or not 
painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or other non-metallic 
substances, in coils (whether or not in successively superimposed 
layers), regardless of thickness, and in straight lengths of a 
thickness of less than 4.75 mm and of a width measuring at least 10 
times the thickness. Universal mill plate (i.e., flat-rolled products 
rolled on four faces or in a closed box pass, of a width exceeding 150 
mm, but not exceeding 1,250 mm, and of a thickness of not less than 4.0 
mm, not in coils and without patterns in relief) of a thickness not 
less than 4.0 mm is not included within the scope of the order.
    Specifically included within the scope of the order are vacuum 
degassed, fully stabilized (commonly referred to as interstitial-free 
(IF)) steels, high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels, and the substrate 
for motor lamination steels. IF steels are recognized as low carbon 
steels with micro-alloying levels of elements such as titanium or 
niobium (also commonly referred to as columbium), or both, added to 
stabilize carbon and nitrogen elements. HSLA steels are recognized as 
steels with micro-alloying levels of elements such as chromium, copper, 
niobium, vanadium, and molybdenum. The substrate for motor lamination 
steels contains micro-alloying levels of elements such as silicon and 
aluminum.
    Steel products included in the scope of the order, regardless of 
definitions in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States 
(HTSUS), are products in which: (i) Iron predominates, by weight, over 
each of the other contained elements; (ii) the carbon content is two 
percent or less, by weight; and, (iii) none of the elements listed 
below exceeds the quantity, by weight, respectively indicated:

1.80 percent of manganese, or
2.25 percent of silicon, or
1.00 percent of copper, or
0.50 percent of aluminum, or
1.25 percent of chromium, or
0.30 percent of cobalt, or
0.40 percent of lead, or
1.25 percent of nickel, or
0.30 percent of tungsten, or
0.10 percent of molybdenum, or
0.10 percent of niobium, or
0.15 percent of vanadium, or
0.15 percent of zirconium.

    All products that meet the physical and chemical description 
provided above are within the scope of the order unless otherwise 
excluded. The following products, for example, are outside or 
specifically excluded from the scope of the order:
     Alloy hot-rolled steel products in which at least one of 
the chemical elements exceeds those listed above (including, e.g., 
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications A543, 
A387, A514, A517, A506).
     Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE)/American Iron & 
Steel Institute (AISI) grades of series 2300 and higher.
     Ball bearing steels, as defined in the HTSUS.
     Tool steels, as defined in the HTSUS.
     Silico-manganese (as defined in the HTSUS) or silicon 
electrical steel with a silicon level exceeding 2.25 percent.
     ASTM specifications A710 and A736.
     USS abrasion-resistant steels (USS AR 400, USS AR 500).
     All products (proprietary or otherwise) based on an alloy 
ASTM specification (sample specifications: ASTM A506, A507).
     Non-rectangular shapes, not in coils, which are the result 
of having been processed by cutting or stamping and which have assumed 
the character of articles or products classified outside chapter 72 of 
the HTSUS.
    The merchandise subject to the order is classified in the HTSUS at 
subheadings: 7208.10.1500, 7208.10.3000, 7208.10.6000, 7208.25.3000,

provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description 
of the merchandise subject to the order is dispositive.

Analysis of Comments Received

    As noted above, we received no comments on the Preliminary Results.

[[Page 46915]]

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    As no parties submitted comments on the Preliminary Results, 
Commerce has not modified its analysis from that presented in the 
Preliminary Results, and no decision memorandum accompanies this 
Federal Register notice. Further, Commerce has made no changes and 
continues to find that Baosteel Group Corporation, Shanghai Baosteel 
International Economic & Trading Co., Ltd., Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., 
Ltd. (collectively, Baosteel),\2\ Shanghai Meishan Iron & Steel, and 
Union Steel China (collectively, companies under review) have not 
demonstrated that they are separate from the China-wide entity. Because 
no review was requested of the China-wide entity, the pre-existing 
China-wide rate of 90.83 percent will apply to entries of their subject 
merchandise into the United States during the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Because no party is challenging the prior collapsing 
determination, we continue to collapse Baosteel Group Corporation, 
Shanghai Baosteel International Economic & Trading Co., Ltd., and 
Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. (collectively, Baosteel). See 
Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from the People's 
Republic of China: Final No Shipments Determination of Antidumping 
Duty Administrative Review; 2012-2013; 79 FR 67415 (November 13, 
2014).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    We have not calculated any assessment (or cash deposit) rates in 
this administrative review, because none of the companies under review 
qualified for a separate rate. Commerce intends to issue assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date of the final 
results of this administrative review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the final results of this administrative review for all 
shipments of the subject merchandise from China 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 Baosteel, Shanghai 
Meishan Iron & Steel, and Union Steel China, which did not qualify for 
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be China-wide rate of 90.83 
percent; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and non-
Chinese exporters not listed above that have separate rates, the cash 
deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate published 
for the most recent period; (3) for all Chinese exporters of subject 
merchandise which have not been found to be entitled to a separate 
rate, the cash deposit rate will be the China-wide rate of 90.83 
percent; and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise 
which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be 
the rate applicable to Chinese exporter(s) that supplied that non-
Chinese exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.

Disclosure

    Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations 
performed in connection with the final results within five days of its 
public announcement, or if there is no public announcement, within five 
days of the date of publication of this notice in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.224(b). However, because the companies under review are part of 
the China-wide entity, there are no calculations to disclose.

Notification to Importers

    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 review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

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 the 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 the 
terms of an APO is a violation subject to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and 
351.221(b)(5).
