Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on comments received and record evidence, Commerce made certain changes to the Preliminary Results, correcting certain minor calculation errors with regard to the respondent companies, Zhongji and Xiashun. These changes are explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Methodology Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751alA
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended the Act. For each of the subsidy programs found countervailable, Commerce continues to find that there is a subsidy, i.e., a government-provided financial contribution that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and that the subsidy is specific.8 For a full description of the methodology underlying all of Commerces conclusions, including any determination that relied upon the use of adverse facts available pursuant to section 776a and b of the Act, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of Administrative Review In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221b5, Commerce calculated a countervailable subsidy rate for mandatory respondents Zhongji and Xiashun. For the non-selected companies subject to this review, Commerce followed its practice, which is to base the subsidy rates on a weighted average of the subsidy rates calculated for those companies selected for individual examination, excluding rates of zero, de minimis, or rates determined entirely based on adverse facts available.9 To this end, Commerce calculated a rate by weight averaging the calculated subsidy rates of Zhongji and Xiashun using their publicly-available sales data for exports of subject merchandise to the United States during the POR. Commerce finds the 8 See sections 7715B and D of the Act regarding financial contribution; section 7715E
of the Act regarding benefit; and section 7715A of the Act regarding specificity.
