    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Background

    Commerce published the preliminary results of this countervailing duty administrative review of softwood lumber from Canada on January 27, 2023, and invited interested parties to comment.[1] For a summary of the events that occurred since the Preliminary Results, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[2] A list of topics discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is included as Appendix I to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.

    Scope of the Order

    The product covered by this order is certain softwood lumber products from Canada. For a complete description of the scope of the order, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

    Final Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part

    Based on our analysis of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data, we determine that North American Forest Products Ltd. (located in Saint-Quentin, New Brunswick) had no reviewable shipments, sales, or entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Absent evidence of shipments on the record, we are rescinding the administrative review of this company, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). For further information, see the section, “Final Rescission of Administrative Review, in Part” in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

    Analysis of Subsidy Programs and Comments Received

    Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The subsidy programs under review, and the issues raised in case and rebuttal briefs submitted by the interested parties, are discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Based on our analysis of the comments received from the interested parties, we made changes to the subsidy rates calculated for certain respondents. For a discussion of these changes, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.

    Rate for Non-Selected Companies Under Review

    Because the rates calculated for the companies selected for individual review are above de minimis and not based entirely on facts available, we Start Printed Page 50104 applied a subsidy rate based on a weighted average of the subsidy rates calculated for the reviewed companies using sales data submitted by those companies to calculate a rate for the companies not selected for review. This is consistent with the methodology that we would use in an investigation to establish the all-others rate, pursuant to section 705(c)(5)(A) of the Act.

    For further information on the calculation of the non-selected rate, see the section, “Final Ad Valorem Rate for Non-Selected Companies under Review” in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. For a list of the non-selected companies, see Appendix II to this notice.

    Final Results of Review

    In accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) and of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5), we determine that the following total estimated countervailable subsidy rates exist for the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021:

    CompaniesSubsidy rate (percent ad valorem)
    Canfor Corporation and its cross-owned affiliates 31.36
    J.D. Irving, Limited and its cross-owned affiliates 41.72
    West Fraser Mills Ltd. and its cross-owned affiliates 52.19
    Non-Selected Companies1.79

    Disclosure

    Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these final results of review within five days of the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register , in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

    Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), Commerce will determine, and CBP shall assess, countervailing duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise covered by this review.

    Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 41 days after the date of publication of the final results of this review in the Federal Register , in accordance with 19 CFR 356.8(a).

    For North American Forest Products Ltd. (located in Saint-Quentin, New Brunswick), the company for which this review is rescinded, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated countervailing duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue rescission instructions to CBP no earlier than 41 days after the date of publication of the notice of rescission in the Federal Register .

    Cash Deposit Requirements

    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts shown for the companies subject to this review. For all non-reviewed companies, we will instruct CBP to continue to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the most recent company-specific or all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate. These cash deposits, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

    Administrative Protective Order (APO)
