Full text as published by U.S. Customs and Border Protection

1. Commerce has published in the Federal Register (80 FR 26897) on 05/11/2015 the final results of its administrative review of certain exporters subject to the antidumping duty order on certain cased pencils from the People's Republic of China (PRC) for the period 12/01/2012 through 11/30/2013. 2. As a result of Commerce's review, the cash deposit rate has been revised for a certain exporter. In Commerce's final results, Commerce determined that the following exporter is no longer eligible for a separate rate and is considered part of the PRC-wide entity. Exporter: Shandong Rongxin Import & Export Co., Ltd. Because Commerce determined that this exporter is part of the PRC-wide entity, we have deactivated the exporter case number previously applicable to this exporter, A-570-827-012. Effective 5/11/2015, entries of merchandise exported by this exporter should enter under A-570-827-000 at the applicable cash deposit rate for the PRC-wide entity, 114.90 percent. 3. If any entries of merchandise are exported by a firm other than the exporter listed above, then the following instructions apply: A. If the PRC or non-PRC exporter of the subject merchandise has its own rate, use the applicable exporter's rate to determine the cash deposit rate. B. For all PRC exporters of subject merchandise that have not been assigned to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be the PRC-wide rate of 114.90 percent. C. For all non-PRC exporters of subject merchandise that have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the PRC exporter that supplied that non-PRC exporter. 4. These cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice. Do not liquidate any entries of merchandise covered by the administrative review until specific liquidation instructions are issued. 5. If there are any questions by the importing public regarding this message, please contact the Call Center for the Office of AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce at (202) 482-0984. CBP ports should submit their inquiries through authorized CBP channels only. (This message was generated by OI: MJK.) 6. There are no restrictions on the release of this information. Michael B.
