Final Results of Review

As a result of its review, the ITA determines that the following weighted-average margin percentage exists for the period of review:

CompanyWeighted average margin
Kolon Industries, Inc.0.28% (de minimis)

Estimated AD Cash Deposit Requirements

The following estimated AD duty cash deposit requirements are effective for all shipments of subject merchandise from Korea with a time of entry on or after November 19, 2010:

1. Because the rate for Kolon is de minimis, i.e., less than 0.5 percent, no cash deposit will be required for Kolon;

2. If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review or the less than fair value (LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and

3. If neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered in this or any previous review, the cash deposit rate will be the all-others rate of 21.50 percent from the LTFV investigation.

Assessment Instructions

The ITA will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection shall assess, AD duties on all appropriate entries. The ITA will issue assessment instructions to CBP within 15 days after November 19, 2010.

The ITA will instruct CBP to assess AD duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review if any assessment rate calculated in the final results of this review is above de minimis.
