SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On January 29, 2021, Commerce published orders for the CVD investigations on FEBs from China, Germany, India, and Italy and an amended final determination for the CVD investigation on FEBs from China.^[1] Commerce is correcting the Orders to include the names of the cross-owned affiliates of certain companies which were inadvertently omitted from the Orders.

Correction to the Orders

We are correcting the Orders to reflect that the net countervailable subsidy rates in the Orders are also applicable to the cross-owned companies of certain companies as reflected in the charts below.

Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits

In accordance with section 706 of the Act, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to reinstitute the suspension of liquidation of FEBs from China, Germany, India, and Italy, as described in the appendix to this notice, effective on the date of publication of the International Trade Commission's (ITC's) notice of final determination in the Federal Register, and to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), countervailing duties for each entry of the subject merchandise in an amount based on the net countervailable subsidy rates for the subject merchandise as stated in the charts below. On or after the date of publication of the ITC's final injury determination in the Federal Register, CBP must require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated duties on this merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the rates stated in the charts below. The all-others rate applies to all producers or exporters not specifically listed below.
