No Shipments. Commerce found Xin Wei Aluminum Company Limited had no shipments to the U.S. during the period under review. As such, Xin Wei's cash deposit rate will not change, and any subject merchandise imported under Xin Wei's case number will be liable for assessments at the 33.28% China-wide rate.

(The review period is 05/01/13 -- 04/30/14. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1506050055 for summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
