1. On 02/20/2018, Commerce published in the Federal Register (83 FR 7145) its affirmative preliminary determination of sales at less than fair value and critical circumstances in the antidumping duty investigation of cast iron soil pipe fittings from the People's Republic of China (see message number 8057305, dated 02/26/2018). The cash deposit rates in that message were adjusted to reflect offsets for certain subsidies associated with the companion countervailing duty (CVD) investigation of this merchandise (C-570-063). 2. The final day that provisional measures in the companion CVD proceeding were in effect was 04/17/2018. As a result, suspension of liquidation was discontinued in that case (see message number 8108302, dated 04/18/2018). Therefore, effective 04/18/2018 (the day after the final day of provisional measures in the companion CVD proceeding) through 07/16/2018 (the date prior to the publication of the final determination), CBP should collect the full cash deposit rate calculated in the antidumping duty proceeding, as identified in the paragraph below. 3. Accordingly, for shipments of subject merchandise from the exporter/producer combinations listed below, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption from 04/18/2018 (the day after the final day of provisional measures in the companion CVD investigation) until 07/16/2018, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to the following dumping margins: Exporter: China-Wide Entity Case number: A-570-062-000 Cash deposit rate: 109.95 % Exporter: Sibo International Limited Producer: Qinshui Shunshida Casting Co., Ltd. Case number: A-570-062-001 Cash deposit rate: 109.95 % Note to CBP: In the final determination, Commerce determined that Sibo International Limited is no longer eligible for a separate rate and is part of the China-Wide Entity. Accordingly, Commerce has deactivated the following exporter/producer chain rate case number: A-570-062-001. Effective 07/17/2018 (the date of publication of the final determination) entries of subject merchandise from this exporter should be entered under A-570-062-000.
