#  Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks From the People's Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2020-2021

**AGENCY:**

Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.

**SUMMARY:**

The Department of Commerce (Commerce) determines that certain companies made sales of subject merchandise from the People's Republic of China (China) at less than normal value during the period of review (POR) April 1, 2020, through March 31, 2021.

**DATES:**

Applicable November 17, 2021.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Adam Simons, AD/CVD Operations, Office II, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-6172.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

On August 31, 2021, Commerce published the *Preliminary Results* and invited interested parties to comment. [^1] We received no comments from interested parties on the *Preliminary Results.* Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

[^1]*See Preliminary Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2020-2021,* 86 FR 48666 (August 31, 2021) ( *Preliminary Results* ), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).

**Scope of the Order 
                    2**

[^2]*See Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks from the People's Republic of China: Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order,* 78 FR 21592 (April 11, 2013) ( *Order* ).

The products covered by the *Order* include drawn stainless steel sinks. Imports of subject merchandise are currently classified under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 7324.10.0000 and 7324.10.0010.  Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of the order is dispositive. [^3]

[^3] For a complete description of the scope of the *Order, see Preliminary Results* PDM at 3.

**Final Results of Review**

We received no comments and are making no changes from the *Preliminary Results.* Therefore, as a result of this review, we continue to determine that Jiangmen New Star Hi-Tech Enterprise Ltd. (New Star) and KaiPing Dawn Plumbing Products, Inc. (KaiPing) have not established their eligibility for a separate rate and are part of the China-wide entity.

**Assessment Rates**

Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). Because we determined that KaiPing and New Star were not eligible for a separate rate and are part of the China-wide entity, we will instruct CBP to apply the China-wide entity rate, an *ad valorem* assessment rate of 76.45 percent, [^4] to all entries of subject merchandise during the POR that were produced and/or exported by KaiPing and New Star.

[^4] The China-wide rate determined in the investigation was 76.53 percent. *See Order.* This rate was adjusted for export subsidies and estimated domestic subsidy pass through to determine the cash deposit rate (76.45 percent) collected for companies in the China-wide entity. *See* explanation in *Drawn Stainless Steel Sinks from the People's Republic of China: Investigation, Final Determination,* 78 FR 13019, 13025 (February 26, 2013).

Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the *Federal Register* . If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired ( *i.e.,* within 90 days of publication).

**Cash Deposit Requirements**

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) 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 equal to the exporter-specific weighted-average dumping margin published of the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate for China-wide entity, 76.45 percent; [^5] and (3) for all exporters of subject merchandise which are not located in China and which are not eligible for a separate 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.

[^5]*Id.*

**Notification to Importers**

This notice serves as a 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.

**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 disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of 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.

**Notification to Interested Parties**

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

Dated: November 10, 2021.

Ryan Majerus,

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
