**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**Background**
On February 10, 2023, Commerce published the *Preliminary Results* of the 2021 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on prestressed concrete steel wire strand (PC Strand) from Thailand. [^1] We invited interested parties to comment on the *Preliminary Results.* On June 6, 2023, Commerce extended the deadline for the final results of this administrative review until July 20, 2023. [^2] For a summary of the events that occurred since the *Preliminary Results, see* the Issues and Decision Memorandum. [^3] Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

[^3]*See* Memorandum, “Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the 2021 Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Prestressed Concrete Steel Wire Strand from Thailand,” dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (Issues and Decision Memorandum).

[^4]*See Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Prestressed Concrete Steel Wire Strand from Thailand,* 69 FR 4111 (January 28, 2004) ( *Order* ).
The merchandise covered by this *Order* is PC Strand from Thailand. For a full description of the scope of the *Order, see* the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
**Analysis of Comments Received**
We addressed all issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs filed in this administrative review in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is included 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 *https://access.trade.gov.* In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at *https://access.trade/gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.*
**Changes Since the Preliminary Results**
Although we made no changes to the preliminary dumping margin calculations for SIW based on our analysis of the comments received from interested parties, based on further review of these calculations, we made certain changes to correct errors in our implementation of the quarterly cost methodology. [^5]
[^5]*See* Issues and Decision Memorandum for a description of these errors; *see also* Memorandum, “Final Results Margin Calculation for The Siam Industrial Wire Co., Ltd.,” dated concurrently with this notice.
**Final Results of Review**
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021:
| Exporter/producer | Weighted- |
| --- | --- |
| The Siam Industrial Wire Co. Ltd | 2.10 |
**Disclosure**
We intend to disclose the calculations performed for these final results of review to interested parties within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the *Federal Register* , in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
**Assessment Rates**
Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), and given that SIW reported entered values for all of its U.S. sales, we calculated importer-specific *ad valorem* duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of the sales. Where an importer-specific assessment rate is zero or *de minimis* within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) ( *i.e.,* less than 0.5 percent), we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
Consistent with Commerce's clarification of its assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by SIW for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those unreviewed entries at the all-others rate determined in the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation [^6] if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. [^7]
[^6]*See Order.*
[^7]*See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,* 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
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 PC Strand from Thailand entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of this administrative review as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for SIW will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of this review; (2) for producers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published in the most recently completed segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the most recently completed segment for the producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 12.91 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation in this proceeding. [^8] These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
[^8]*See Order.*
**Notification to Importers**
This notice 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 POR. 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 an administrative protective order (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 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 subject to sanction.
**Notification to Interested Parties**
We are issuing and publishing these final results of administrative review in accordance with sections 751(a) and 777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: July 18, 2023.
