Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review; 2022–2023, 89 FR 5206 (January 26, 2024)
(Preliminary Results), and accompanying
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: The
United States Investment Advisory
Council (Council) was established by
the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary)
pursuant to duties imposed by 15 U.S.C.
1512 upon the Department and in
compliance with the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA), as amended, 5
U.S.C. App.
The Council functions solely as an
advisory committee in accordance with
the provisions of FACA. In particular,
the Council advises the Secretary on
government policies and programs that
affect businesses engaging in foreign
direct investment (FDI), the expansion
of domestic operations, or the
transferring of operations to the United
States from overseas. The IAC identifies
and recommends programs and policies
to help the United States attract and
retain business investment and
recommends ways to support the United
States in remaining the world’s
preeminent investment destination. The
Council acts as a liaison among the
stakeholders represented by the
membership and provides a forum for
the stakeholders to provide feedback on
current and emerging issues regarding
FDI and business expansion.
The Council reports to the Secretary
of Commerce on its activities and
recommendations regarding FDI and
business investment. In creating its
reports, the Council is to survey and
evaluate the investment and investment-
facilitating activities of stakeholders,
identifies and examines specific
problems facing potential business
investors and examines the needs of
stakeholders to inform the Council’s
efforts. The Council is to recommend
specific solutions to the problems and
needs that it identifies.
Each member is to be appointed for a
term of two years and serves at the
pleasure of the Secretary. The Secretary
may at his/her discretion reappoint any
member to an additional term or terms,
provided that the member proves to
work effectively on the Council and his/
her knowledge and advice is still
needed.
The Council consists of no more than
forty (40) members appointed by the
Secretary. Members are to represent
companies and organizations investing,
seeking to invest, seeking foreign
investors, or facilitating investment
across many sectors, including but not
limited to:
U.S.-incorporated companies that are
majority-owned by foreign companies or
by a foreign individual or individuals,
or that generate significant foreign direct
investment (e.g., through their supply
chains);
Companies or entities whose business
includes FDI-related activities or the
facilitation of FDI; and
U.S. incorporated companies,
regardless of ownership, that are
considering expanding their operations
in the United States or transferring to
the United States operations that are
currently being conducted overseas;
Economic development organizations
and other U.S. governmental and non-
governmental organizations and
associations whose missions or
activities include the promotion or
facilitation of business investment and/
or FDI.
All members must be a U.S. citizen or
permanent resident. Members shall be
selected based on their ability to carry
out the objectives of the IAC, in
accordance with applicable Department
of Commerce guidelines, in a manner
that ensures that the IAC is balanced in
terms of points of view, industry sector
or subsector, and organizational type.
Members shall also represent a broad
range of products and services and shall
be drawn from large, medium, and small
enterprises, private-sector organizations
that have invested or are considering
investing in the United States, and other
investment-related entities, including
non-governmental organizations,
associations, and economic
development organizations.
For members selected on the basis of
their involvement in FDI and FDI-
related activities, the IAC should also be
balanced in terms of the geographic
sources and destinations of the FDI and
the volume and nature of FDI involved.
For members selected on the basis of
their interest in expanding their
operations in, or transferring operations
to the United States, the IAC should also
be balanced in terms of the size and
nature of the operations under
consideration for expansion or transfer.
In selecting members, priority may be
given to the selection of executives, i.e.,
Chief Executive Officer, Executive
Chairman, President, or an officer with
a comparable level of responsibility.
Members serve in a representative
capacity, representing the views and
interests of their sponsoring entity and
those of their particular sector (if
applicable), and they are, therefore, not
Special Government Employees.
Members will receive no compensation
for their participation and will not be
reimbursed for travel expenses related
to Council activities. Appointments to
the Council shall be made without
regard to political affiliation.
The Secretary designates a Chair and
Vice Chair from among the members.
The Council will meet a minimum of
two times a year, to the extent practical,
with additional meetings called at the
discretion of the Secretary or his/her
designee. Meetings will be held in
Washington, DC or elsewhere in the
United States, or by teleconference, as
feasible. Members are expected to attend
a majority of Council meetings.
Note: A request for applications was posted
in a Federal Register Notice on February 7,
2024. If you applied in response to that
notice, your application remains valid and is
in the review process.

Final Results of the Review
Because no party commented on the
Preliminary Results, we made no
changes to the preliminary findings,
therein; thus, no decision memorandum
accompanies this Federal Register
notice. For these final results, we
determine that the following estimated
weighted-average dumping margin
exists for the period of review of May
1, 2022, through April 30, 2023:
Producer and/or exporter
Weighted-
average
dumping
margin

* Adverse facts available.
Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to
parties to the proceeding the
calculations performed in connection
with a final results of review within five
days of any public announcement or, if
there is no public announcement,
within five days of the date of
publication of the notice of the final
results in the Federal Register, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
However, because we made no changes
from the Preliminary Results, there are
no calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce has determined, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review. Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a
timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of
these final results of administrative
review for all shipments of the subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the publication date, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for Saffron will be
equal to the weighted-average dumping
margin established in these final results
of this administrative review; (2) for
merchandise exported by companies not
covered in this review but covered in a
prior completed segment of this
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate
published in the completed segment for
the most recent period; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, or the less-than-fair-value
(LFTV) investigation, but the producer
is, then the cash deposit rate will be the
cash deposit rate established for the
most recently completed segment for the
producer of the subject merchandise;
and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers and exporters will continue
to be the all-other rate (i.e., 572.56
percent).
4
These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to an
administrative protective order (APO) of
their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely
notification of the return, or destruction,
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is
a violation subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
This determination is being issued
and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act,
and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: April 5, 2024.
