Final Results of CCR
For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, and because we received no comments
from interested parties challenging our preliminary finding, Commerce continues to find that
Varma is the successor-in-interest to Varma Marine. As a result of this determination and
consistent with our established practice, we find that Varma should receive the AD cash deposit
rate previously assigned to Varma Marine. Because there are no changes from the Preliminary
Results and because we received no comments from interested parties, there is no decision
memorandum accompanying this notice and we are adopting the Preliminary Results as the final
results of this CCR.
Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend
liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Varma and
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this

notice in the Federal Register at 3.88 percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate for
Varma Marine.2 This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further notice.
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 written notification of
return or destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a sanctionable
violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing this determination and publishing these final results and notice in
accordance with sections 751(b)(1) and 777(i)(1) and (2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended,
and 19 CFR 351.216(e), 351.221(b), and 351.221(c)(3).
