Correction

In the Federal Register of July 12, 2017, in FR Doc 2017-14611, on page 32172, in the second column, correct the first paragraph of the “Cash Deposit Requirements” caption to state the correct cash deposit rate for the PRC-wide entity. The correct cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity (PRC-wide entity) is 152.84 percent.

In the Federal Register of June 14, 2019, in FR Doc 2019-12608, on page 27765, in the second and third columns, correct the first paragraph of the “Analysis” caption and the first paragraph of the “Cash Deposit Requirements” caption to state the correct dumping margin and cash deposit rate, respectively, for the China-wide entity. The correct dumping margin and cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity are 165.04 percent and 152.84 percent, respectively.

Background

On July 12, 2017, and June 14, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register notices of the final results of the 2014-2016 and 2017-2018 administrative reviews, respectively, of the AD order on solar products from China.^[1] We incorrectly identified the cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity as 165.04 percent in the notice of final results for the 2014-2016 review and incorrectly identified the dumping margin and the cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity as 151.98 percent in the notice of final results for the 2017-2018 review. The dumping margin and cash deposit rate applicable to the China-wide entity during the 2014-2016 and 2017-2018 periods of review did not change from those established in the less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation and the AD order. In the LTFV investigation, Commerce established a 165.04 percent dumping margin for the China-wide entity which it adjusted for export subsidies and domestic subsidy pass-through to derive a cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity of 152.84 percent.^[2] We hereby notify the public that in these notices for the final results of administrative reviews we should have identified the dumping margin for the China-wide entity as 165.04 percent and the cash deposit rate for the China-wide entity as 152.84 percent.^[3] We intend to notify U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) of this correction.

Notification to Interested Parties

This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a) and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.
