1. On 12/16/2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register its antidumping duty order on refillable stainless steel kegs from the People's Republic of China (China) (A-570-093) (84 FR 68405). 2. The products covered by this order are kegs, vessels, or containers with bodies that are approximately cylindrical in shape, made from stainless steel (i.e., steel containing at least 10.5 percent chromium by weight and less than 1.2 percent carbon by weight, with or without other elements), and that are compatible with a "D Sankey" extractor (refillable stainless steel kegs) with a nominal liquid volume capacity of 10 liters or more, regardless of the type of finish, gauge, thickness, or grade of stainless steel, and whether or not covered by or encased in other materials. Refillable stainless steel kegs may be imported assembled or unassembled, with or without all components (including spears, couplers or taps, necks, collars, and valves), and be filled or unfilled. "Unassembled" or "unfinished" refillable stainless steel kegs include drawn stainless steel cylinders that have been welded to form the body of the keg and attached to an upper (top) chime and/or lower (bottom) chime. Unassembled refillable stainless steel kegs may or may not be welded to a neck, may or may not have a valve assembly attached, and may be otherwise complete except for testing, certification, and/or marking. Subject merchandise also includes refillable stainless steel kegs that have been further processed in a third country, including but not limited to, attachment of necks, collars, spears or valves, heat treatment, pickling, passivation, painting, testing, certification or any other processing that would not otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the investigation if performed in the country of manufacture of the in-scope refillable stainless steel keg. Specifically excluded are the following: (1) vessels or containers that are not approximately cylindrical in nature (e.g., box, "hopper" or "cone" shaped vessels); (2) stainless steel kegs, vessels, or containers that have either a "ball lock" valve system or a "pin lock" valve system (commonly known as "Cornelius," "corny" or "ball lock" kegs); (3) necks, spears, couplers or taps, collars, and valves that are not imported with the subject merchandise; and (4) stainless steel kegs that are filled with beer, wine, or other liquid and that are designated by the Commissioner of Customs as Instruments of International Traffic within the meaning of section 332(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. The merchandise covered by this investigation are currently classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) under subheadings 7310.10.0010, 7310.10.0050, 7310.29.0025, and 7310.29.0050. These HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes; the written description of the scope of this investigation is dispositive. 3. For imports of refillable stainless steel kegs from China, CBP shall suspend liquidation of such shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 12/13/2019 (date of publication of the International Trade Commission final determination in the Federal Register). Effective 12/13/2019, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to the percentages identified below. These cash deposit rates have been adjusted to reflect the appropriate subsidy offsets determined in the companion countervailing duty proceeding. Exporter: China-Wide Entity Case number: A-570-093-000 Cash deposit rate: 63.60% Exporter: Guangzhou Jingye Machinery Co., Ltd. Producer: Guangzhou Jingye Machinery Co., Ltd.

Case number: A-570-093-004 Cash deposit rate: 00.00% 4. Commerce found a final zero margin on imports of subject merchandise for the producer/exporter combination identified below and is therefore excluding this company from this order. Commerce issued separate customs instructions for entries made prior to the date of publication of the final determination. See message numbers: 9303306 and 9322304. Exporter: Ningbo Master International Trade Co., Ltd. Producer: Ningbo Major Draft Beer Equipment Co., Ltd. Case number: A-570-093-001 5.
