Scope of the measure

The products covered by these orders are ceramic abrasive grains from China. For a complete description of the scope of the orders, see the Appendix to this notice. AD Order On September 19, 2025, 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 ceramic abrasive grains from China that are sold in the United States at less than fair value. Therefore, in accordance with section 735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act, Commerce is issuing this AD order. Because the ITC determined that imports of ceramic abrasive grains from China are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such merchandise from China, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties.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 on all relevant entries of ceramic abrasive grains from China. Antidumping duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of ceramic abrasive grains entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 2, 2025, the date of publication of the Preliminary LTFV Determination. See Sol Gel Alumina-Based Ceramic Abrasive Grains from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, 90 FR 23319 (June 2, 2025) (Preliminary LTFV Determination). Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits--AD Commerce intends to instruct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation on all relevant entries of ceramic abrasive grains from China, in accordance with section 736 of the Act. These instructions suspending liquidations will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce also intends to instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margin indicated in the table below, adjusted by the relevant subsidy offsets. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication in the Federal Register of the notice of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination, CBP must require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated customs duties on subject merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the rates listed in the table below. Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping Margins The estimated weighted-average dumping margin is as follows: This rate is based on facts available with adverse inferences. Weighted- average Exporter/producer dumping margin (percent) China-wide Entity * 88.32 * This rate is based on facts available with adverse inferences. See Final LTFV Determination. Commerce notes that the Preliminary LTFV Determination and the Final LTFV Determination incorrectly applied an export subsidy offset of 16.10 percent ad valorem. The correct export subsidy offset is 0.00 percent ad valorem, pursuant to Commerce's Final CVD Determination. CVD Order As stated above, based on the above-referenced affirmative final determination by the ITC that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of subsidized imports of ceramic abrasive grains from China, in accordance with section 705(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce is issuing this CVD order. Moreover, because the ITC determined that imports of ceramic abrasive grains from China are materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of subject merchandise from China, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, are subject to the assessment of countervailing duties. See ITC Notification Letter. Therefore, in accordance with section 706(a) of the Act, Commerce intends to direct CBP to assess, upon further instructions by Commerce, countervailing duties on all relevant entries of ceramic abrasive grains from China, which are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after May 22, 2025, the date of publication of the Preliminary CVD Determination, but will not include entries occurring after the expiration of the provisional measures period and before the publication of the ITC's final injury determination under section 705(b) of the Act, as further described in the ``Provisional Measures--CVD'' section of this notice. See Sol Gel Alumina-Based Ceramic Abrasive Grains from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 90 FR 21893 (May 22, 2025) (Preliminary CVD Determination). Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits--CVD In accordance with section 706 of the Act, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation of ceramic abrasive grains from China, effective on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register, and to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, countervailing duties on each entry of subject merchandise in an amount based on the net countervailable subsidy rates below.
