On 07/27/2015 (80 FR 44326), Commerce published in the Federal Register its Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony with Final Results and Notice of Amended Final Determination in the antidumping order on carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Mexico. See message 5219310, dated 08/07/2015. 3. 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 entries of carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Mexico with actual diameters of 4.75 mm to 5.00 mm produced and/or exported by Deacero S.A. de C.V. or Deacero USA, Inc. which were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 01/01/2015. 4. 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 Affirmative Final Determination of Circumvention of the Antidumping Duty Order on Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from Mexico rate and the zero cash deposit due as a result of the application of the Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from Mexico: Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony with Final Results and Notice of Amended Final Determination rate. 5. The amended deposit rate assigned in the Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony with Final Results and Notice of Amended Final Determination (see message number 5219310, dated 08/07/2015) is zero percent. This amended cash deposit rate applies with regard to all entries of carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Mexico with actual diameters of 4.75 mm to 5.00 mm produced and/or exported to the United States by Deacero S.A. de C.V. or Deacero USA, Inc. (A-201-830-006) entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 01/01/2015. 6. Do not liquidate entries of carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Mexico with actual diameters of 4.75 mm to 5.00 mm produced and/or exported to the United States by Deacero S.A. de C.V or Deacero USA, Inc. until specific liquidation instructions are issued. 7. The assessment of antidumping duties by CBP on shipments or entries of this merchandise is subject to the provisions of section 778 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. Section 778 requires that CBP pay interest on overpayments or assess interest on underpayments of the required amounts deposited as estimated antidumping duties. The interest provisions are not applicable to cash or bonds posted as estimated antidumping duties before the date of publication of the antidumping duty order. Interest shall be calculated from the date payment of estimated antidumping is required through the date of liquidation. The rate at which such interest is payable is the rate in effect under section 6621 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 for such period. 8.
