SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 7, 2021, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of
this review of the antidumping duty order on LWRPT from Turkey covering
the period of review (POR) May 1, 2019, through April 30, 2020.\1\ No
parties commented on the Preliminary Results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Light-Walled Rectangular Pipe and Tube from Turkey:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2019-
2020, 86 FR 18035 (April 7, 2021) (Preliminary Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to this order is certain welded carbon
quality light-walled steel pipe and tube, of rectangular (including
square) cross section, having a wall thickness of less than 4 mm. The
term carbon-quality steel includes both carbon steel and alloy steel
which contains only small amounts of alloying elements. Specifically,
the term carbon-quality includes products in which none of the elements
listed below exceeds the quantity by weight respectively indicated:
1.80 percent of manganese, or 2.25 percent of silicon, or 1.00 percent
of copper, or 0.50 percent of aluminum, or 1.25 percent of chromium, or
0.30 percent of cobalt, or 0.40 percent of lead, or 1.25 percent of
nickel, or 0.30 percent of tungsten, or 0.10 percent of molybdenum, or
0.10 percent of niobium, or 0.15 percent vanadium, or 0.15 percent of
zirconium. The description of carbon-quality is intended to identify
carbon-quality products within the scope. The welded carbon-quality
rectangular pipe and tube subject to this order is currently classified
under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
subheadings 7306.61.5000 and 7306.61.7060. While HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and CBP's customs purposes, our written
description of the scope of the order is dispositive.
Analysis
Based on information obtained from U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP), in the Preliminary Results Commerce determined that,
during the POR, there were no suspended U.S. entries of subject
merchandise from the following companies: (1) Cinar Boru Profil Sanayi
ve Ticaret A.S.; (2) Intermetal International Metal L.L.C.; (3) Parker
Steel Company, Inc.; (4) Parker Steel International; (5) Tata Steel
Nederland Tubes BV; and (6) Van Leeuwen Precisie B.V.\2\ No parties
commented on the Preliminary Results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Preliminary Results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In these final results of review, we are making no changes to the
Preliminary Results. We continue to find, based on information obtained
from CBP, that during the POR, there were no suspended U.S. entries of
subject merchandise from each of the six companies under review.
Nevertheless, as noted in the Preliminary Results, we forwarded to CBP
an allegation from Nucor Tubular Products Inc., a domestic interested
party, that certain merchandise from the companies under review that
was entered into the United States during the POR was misreported to
CBP as non-subject merchandise when it may be subject merchandise.
Assessment
Upon issuance of these final results, Commerce will determine, and
CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). For any entries found to be
associated with the six companies under review, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction, consistent
with Commerce's reseller policy.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of
[[Page 41441]]
publication of this notice 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 for all
entries of LWRPT from Turkey entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act:
(1) If a company-specific weighted-average dumping margin was
previously established in a completed segment of this proceeding for
any of the six companies listed above, then the cash deposit rate will
continue to be equal to the company-specific weighted-average dumping
margin established for the company in the most recently completed
segment (except, if the rate is de minimis, i.e., less than 0.5
percent, then the cash deposit rate will be zero percent); (2) for
merchandise exported by a company not covered in this review but
covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published
for that company in the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company was included; (3) if the exporter of
the subject merchandise does not have its own rate but the producer has
its own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the company-specific rate
established in the most recently completed segment of the proceeding
for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 27.04
percent, the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value
investigation.\4\

\4\ See Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair
Value: Light-Walled Rectangular Pipe and Tube from Turkey, 73 FR
19814 (April 11, 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
These final results of administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Dated: July 27, 2021.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
