1.

See message 2164403, dated 06/13/2022. 2. Title 19 U.S.C. 1520(a)(4) authorizes refunds prior to liquidation whenever an importer of record declares or it is ascertained that excess duties, fees, charges, or exactions have been deposited or paid. In accordance with 19 U.S.C. 1520(a)(4), CBP is authorized to grant a refund, if requested by the importer, of cash deposits for any unliquidated entries of prestressed concrete steel wire strand from the Republic of Turkey from the entities listed in paragraph 4 below which were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period 12/11/2020 (publication date of final determination) through 06/04/2022 (day before the applicable date of the amended final determination). 3. Commerce issued earlier refund instructions for the period 12/11/2020 through 01/31/2021 to account for a correction to these rates to reflect the appropriate subsidy offsets determined in the companion countervailing duty proceeding. See message 1064405, dated 03/05/2021. As a result, the refund amount will be calculated by determining the difference between the amount of cash deposits paid as a result of the application of the corrected final determination rate (see message 1062401, dated 03/03/2021) and the amount due as a result of the application of the amended final determination rate (see message 2164403, dated 06/13/2022). 4.
