SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 14, 2022, BFN requested that Commerce conduct an expedited
CCR of the AD order on flanges from India \1\ to find that BFN is the
successor-in-interest to Bebitz.\2\ On June 6, 2022, Commerce initiated
a CCR and preliminarily determined that BFN is the successor-in-
interest to Bebitz.\3\ In the Initiation and Preliminary Results, we
provided all interested parties with an opportunity to comment.\4\ We
received no comments from any interested party.

Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by the Order is flanges from India. The
merchandise subject to the Order is currently classified under
subheadings 7307.91.5010 and 7307.91.5050 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). They may also be entered under

description of the scope is dispositive.\5\

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review
Because the record contains no information or evidence that calls
into question the Initiation and Preliminary Results, and because we
received no comments from interested parties to the contrary, for the
reasons stated in the Initiation and Preliminary Results,\6\ Commerce
finds that BFN is the successor-in-interest to Bebitz.

provided, including business proprietary information, and Commerce's
complete successor-in-interest analysis, see the Initiation and
Preliminary Results PDM.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection
As a result of these final results and consistent with established
practice, we find that, as the successor-in-interest to Bebitz, entries
of flanges from India produced and/or exported by BFN should be subject
to the cash deposit rate previously assigned to Bebitz. Commerce will
instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of
all shipments of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by BFN
and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication date of this notice in the Federal Register at 0.00
percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate in effect for
subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Bebitz.\7\ This cash
deposit rate shall remain in effect until further notice.
