Background

2016-2017 antidumping duty administrative review of certain steel nails 
from the Sultanate of Oman.\1\ In accordance with 19 CFR

Results. On June 13, 2018, Mid Continent Steel & Wire, Inc. (the

brief, the petitioner timely requested a hearing but withdrew its 
request on September 7, 2018.\3\ On June 20, 2018, the petitioner and 
Oman Fasteners submitted their rebuttal briefs.\4\

parallel shoulders under the head shall be measured from under the 
head or shoulder to the tip of the point. The shaft length of all 
other certain steel nails shall be measured overall.
    \6\ See Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for Final Results of

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and comments received from 
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, we have 
recalculated Oman Fasteners' weighted-average dumping

margin.\7\ The AFA dumping margin for the collapsed entity (i.e., OISI 
and ODS) remains unchanged from the Preliminary Results.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See IDM; see also Memorandum, ``Certain Nails from Oman: 
Calculation Memorandum for the Final Results of the 2016-2017 
Administrative Review--Oman Fasteners,'' dated concurrently with 
this notice.
    \8\ Commerce determined that OISI and ODS should be a collapsed 
entity in the previous administrative review. See Certain Steel 
Nails from the Sultanate of Oman: Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2014-2016, 83 FR 4030 (January 29, 2018).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of the Review

    As a result of this review, we determine that, for the period July 
1, 2016, through June 30, 2017, the following dumping margins exist:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Weighted-
                                                              average
                Producer and/or exporter                  dumping margin
                                                             (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oman Fasteners LLC......................................            0.00
Overseas International Steel Industry LLC/Overseas                154.33
 Distribution Services Inc..............................
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Duty Assessment

    Commerce shall determine and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
shall assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.\9\ For Oman 
Fasteners, because its weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de 
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), Commerce has not calculated 
importer-specific antidumping duty assessment rates. Pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to 
antidumping duties any entries for which the importer-specific 
assessment rate is zero or de minimis. Because we calculated a zero 
margin for Oman Fasteners in the final results of this review, we 
intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without 
regard to antidumping duties. For entries of the subject merchandise 
from OISI and ODS, we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties at 
the AFA rate of 154.33 percent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ In these final results, Commerce applied the assessment rate 
calculation method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation 
of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in 
Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 
(February 14, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice, 
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by each 
respondent for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined 
for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed 
entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate 
company(ies) involved in the transaction. We intend to issue assessment 
instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of the final 
results of this review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the notice of final results of administrative review for 
all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication of the final 
results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act): (1) The cash deposit 
rate for respondents noted above will be the rate established in the 
final results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise 
exported by manufacturers or exporters not covered in this 
administrative review but covered in a prior segment of the proceeding, 
the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company specific rate 
published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding; 
(3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior 
review, or the original investigation, but the manufacturer is, the 
cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently 
completed segment of this proceeding for the manufacturer of the 
subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 
manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 9.10 percent, the all-
others rate established in the antidumping investigation. These cash 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

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) to file a certificate regarding 
the reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to 
liquidation of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties occurred and 
the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (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/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 this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).

    Dated: November 9, 2018.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
