We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and comments received from interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, and for the reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we made certain changes for these final results of review.
Final Determination of No Shipments In the Preliminary Results, Commerce determined that HiSteel had no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR. No party commented on this issue and because we have not received any information to contradict our preliminary finding, we continue to find that HiSteel did not have any shipments of subject merchandise during the POR and intend to issue appropriate instructions to U.S.

based on the final results of this review.
Rate for Non-Examined Companies The statute and Commerces regulations do not address the establishment of a rate to be applied to companies not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777Ac2 of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735c5 of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a market economy investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for companies which were not selected for individual examination in an administrative review. Under section 735c5A of the Act, the all-others rate is normally an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weightedaverage dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually investigated, excluding any zero or de minimis margins, and any margins determined entirely on the basis of facts available. Section 735c5B of the Act also provides that, where all rates for individually examined companies are zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts available, Commerce may use any reasonable method for assigning the rate to all other respondents. The SAA
states that one such reasonable method

is to weight-average the rates that are zero, de minimis, and based entirely on facts available.5
In this review, we calculated weighted-average dumping margins for Husteel Co., Ltd. Husteel and Hyundai Steel Company Hyundai Steel that are zero percent, and we have assigned this zero percent rate to the 21 firms not selected for individual review under section 735c5B of the Act.6
Final Results of Review We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exists for the period November 1, 2018
through October 31, 2019:

Producer/exporter
Husteel Co., Ltd
Hyundai Steel Company 7

Weightedaverage dumping margin percent 0.00
0.00

Review-Specific Average Rate Applicable to the Following Companies Other Respondents 8

0.00

Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed in connection with these final results to parties in this proceeding within five days of the date of publication of this notice, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224b.
Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751a2C of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212b, Commerce shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. Because all respondents weighted-average dumping margins are zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106c1, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Husteel or Hyundai Steel for which they did not know that the merchandise was destined to the United States and for all entries attributed to HiSteel, for which we found no shipments during the POR, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those 5 See Statement of Administrative Action Accompanying the Uruguay Round Agreements Act, H.R.
