2022-20207. Certain Passenger Vehicles and Light Truck Tires From the People's Republic of China: Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony With the Results of Antidumping Administrative Review; Notice of Amended Final Results; Correction

AGENCY:

Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.

ACTION:

Notice; correction.

SUMMARY:

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) published notice in the Federal Register of June 3, 2022, in which Commerce announced the amended final results of the 2015-2016 administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on certain passenger vehicle and light truck tires (passenger tires), following a final decision by the U.S. Court of International Trade which was not in harmony with the underlying final results of that review. In that notice, Commerce incorrectly labeled the headers of two tables setting forth the weighted-average dumping margins applicable in the amended final results as “Producer/Exporter,” instead of labeling them as “Exporter.” In addition, Commerce incorrectly separated certain entities in the first table, instead of listing them together. We are correcting these inadvertent errors with this notice, as described below.

In the Federal Register of June 3, 2022, in FR Doc 2022-11939, on pages 33718 and 33719, in the first column of each table, correct the header from “Producer/Exporter” to “Exporter.” In addition, on page 33719, in the first column of the first table, correct the list of entities by combining Sailun Jinyu Group Co., Ltd.; Sailun Jinyu Group (Hong Kong) Co., Limited; Shandong Jinyu Industrial Co., Ltd.; Sailun Tire International Corp.; Seatex International Inc.; Dynamic Tire Corp.; and Husky Tire Corp. together, rather than on separate lines.
