Scope of the measure
The products covered by these orders are R-125 from China. For a complete description of the scope of the orders, see Appendix I to this notice. Antidumping Duty Order On February 23, 2022, in accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of imports of R-125 from China. Therefore, Commerce is issuing this AD order in accordance with sections 735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act. Because the ITC determined that imports of R-125 from China are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties. Id. Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise for all relevant entries of R-125 from China. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of R-125 from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after August 17, 2021, the date of publication of the LTFV Preliminary Determination, but will not be assessed on entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination, as further described below. See Pentafluoroethane (R-125) from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, in Part, Postponement of Final Determination, and Extension of Provisional Measures, 86 FR 45959 (August 17, 2021) (LTFV Preliminary Determination). Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation--AD In accordance with section 736 of the Act, we will instruct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation on all relevant entries of R-125 from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determinations in the Federal Register. These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further notice. For each producer and exporter combination, Commerce will also instruct CBP to require cash deposits for estimated antidumping duties equal to the cash deposit rates listed below. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as an importer of record would normally deposit estimated duties on the subject merchandise, a cash deposit for each entry of subject merchandise equal to the cash deposit rates listed below. As stated in the LTFV Final Determination, Commerce made certain adjustments for export subsidies from the CVD Final Determination to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins to determine each of the cash deposit rates. See section 736(a)(3) of the Act. Estimated Cash deposit rate weighted-average (adjusted for Producer Exporter dumping margin subsidy offsets) (percent) (percent) Zhejiang Sanmei Chemical Ind. Co., Ltd Zhejiang Sanmei Chemical Ind. 277.95 267.41 Co., Ltd. Fujian Qingliu Dongying Chemical Ind. Co., Zhejiang Sanmei Chemical Ind. 277.95 267.41 Ltd. Co., Ltd. Producers Supplying the Non-Individually- Non-Individually-Examined 277.95 267.41 Examined Exporters Receiving Separate Exporters Receiving Separate Rates (see Appendix II). Rates (see Appendix II). China-Wide Entity 278.05 267.51 Provisional Measures--AD Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in effect for more than four months, except that Commerce may extend the four-month period to no more than six months at the request of exporters representing a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise. Commerce published its LTFV Preliminary Determination on August 17, 2021. Therefore, the six-month period beginning on the date of publication of the LTFV Preliminary Determination ended on February 12, 2022. The China-wide entity also includes Zhejiang Quzhou Juxin Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd. See LTFV Preliminary Determination. Therefore, in accordance with section 733(d) of the Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to liquidate, without regard to antidumping duties, unliquidated entries of R-125 from China entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption after February 12, 2022, the date on which the provisional measures expired, through the day preceding the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register. Suspension of liquidation will resume on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register.
