SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 17, 2022, pursuant to section 781(b) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.226(i), domestic interested
parties filed circumvention inquiry requests alleging that CWP, pipe
and tube, LWRPT, and LWR tubing completed in Vietnam using HRS
manufactured in China, India, Korea, or Taiwan are circumventing the
Orders \1\ on pipe products from those countries and, accordingly,
should be included within the scope of the Orders.\2\ On June 2, 2022,
SeAH Steel VINA Corporation (SeAH VINA) filed opposition comments in
response to the domestic interested parties' request regarding the CWP
and pipe and tube allegations; the comments did not address the LWRPT
and LWR tubing allegations.\3\ On June 13, 2022, we extended the
deadline to initiate these circumvention inquiries by 15 days, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(d)(1).\4\ On June 21, 2022, we issued
supplemental questionnaires to the domestic interested parties.\5\ On
June 28, 2022, the domestic interested parties filed their responses to
our supplemental questionnaires.\6\ On July 1, 2022, Commerce clarified
that we issued the supplemental questionnaires because we had found
that the requests to conduct circumvention inquiries were insufficient
for purposes of initiation, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(d)(1)(i).
Additionally, we clarified that we consider the initial requests and
supplementary information together to constitute the applications for
circumvention inquires, and that based on the date that the domestic
parties filed the supplemental information, we consider the inquiry
requests to have been filed on June 28, 2022.\7\ On July 20, 2022,
Vietnam Haiphong Hongyuan Machinery Manufactory Co., Ltd. (Vietnam
Haiphong) filed opposition comments in response to the domestic
interested parties' request regarding CWP from China.\8\

Merchandise Subject to the Circumvention Inquiries
These circumvention inquiries cover CWP China, CWP Korea, pipe and
tube India, pipe and tube Taiwan, CWP Taiwan, LWRPT China, LWRPT Korea,
and LWR tubing Taiwan, completed in Vietnam using Chinese, Indian,
Korean, or Taiwan-produced HRS and subsequently exported from Vietnam
to the United States.
Initiation of Circumvention Inquiries
Section 351.226(d) of Commerce's regulations states that if
Commerce determines that a request for a circumvention inquiry
satisfies the requirements of 19 CFR 351.226(c), then Commerce ``will
accept the request and initiate a circumvention inquiry.'' Section
351.226(c)(1) of Commerce's regulations, in turn, requires that each
circumvention inquiry request alleges ``that the elements necessary for
a circumvention determination under section 781 of the Act exist'' and
be ``accompanied by information reasonably available to the interested
party supporting these allegations.'' The domestic interested parties
alleged circumvention pursuant to section 781(b) of the Act, which
pertains to merchandise completed or assembled in other foreign
countries.
Section 781(b)(1) of the Act provides that Commerce may find
circumvention of an AD order when merchandise of the same class or kind
subject to the order is completed or assembled in a foreign country
other than the country to which the order applies. In conducting a
circumvention inquiry, under section 781(b)(1) of the Act, Commerce
relies on the following criteria: (A) merchandise imported into the
United States is of the same class or kind as any merchandise produced
in a foreign country that is the subject of an AD or CVD order or
finding; (B) before importation into the United States, such imported
merchandise is completed or assembled in another foreign country from
merchandise which is subject to the order or merchandise which is
produced in the foreign country that is subject to the order; (C) the
process of assembly or completion in the foreign country referred to in
section (B) is minor or insignificant; (D) the value of the merchandise
produced in the foreign country to which the AD or CVD order applies is
a significant portion of the total value of the merchandise exported to
the United States; and (E) the administering authority determines that
action is appropriate to prevent evasion of such order or finding.
In determining whether the process of assembly or completion in a
third country is minor or insignificant under section 781(b)(1)(C) of
the Act, section 781(b)(2) of the Act directs Commerce to consider: (A)
the level of investment in the foreign country; (B) the level of
research and development in the foreign country; (C) the nature of the
production process in the foreign country; (D) the extent of production
facilities in the foreign country; and (E) whether or not the value of
processing performed in the foreign country represents a small
proportion of the value of the merchandise imported into the United
States. However, no single factor, by itself, controls Commerce's
determination of whether the process of assembly or completion in a
third country is minor or insignificant.\10\ Accordingly, it is
Commerce's practice to evaluate each of these five factors, depending
on the totality of the circumstances of the particular circumvention
inquiry.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See Statement of Administrative Action Accompanying the
Uruguay Round Agreements Act, H.R. Doc. No. 103-316, Vol. 1 (1994)
(SAA), at 893.
\11\ See Uncovered Innerspring Units from the People's Republic
of China: Final Affirmative Determination of Circumvention of the
Antidumping Duty Order, 83 FR 65626 (December 21, 2018), and
accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum, at 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In addition, section 781(b)(3) of the Act sets forth additional
factors to consider in determining whether to include merchandise
assembled or completed in a third country within the scope of an AD or
CVD order. Specifically, Commerce shall take into account such factors
as: (A) the pattern of trade, including sourcing patterns; (B) whether
the manufacturer or exporter of the merchandise is affiliated with the
person who, in the third country, uses the merchandise to complete or
assemble the merchandise which is subsequently imported into the United
States; and (C) whether imports of the merchandise into the third
country have increased after the initiation of the investigation that
resulted in the issuance of such order or finding.
Based on our analysis of the domestic interested parties'
circumvention requests, Commerce determines that the domestic
interested parties have satisfied the criteria under 19 CFR 351.226(c)
to warrant the initiations of circumvention inquiries of these Orders.
Therefore, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.226(d)(1)(ii), we are initiating the
requested circumvention inquiries. For a full discussion of the basis
for our decisions to initiate these circumvention inquiries, see each
respective Circumvention Initiation Memorandum.\12\ As explained in the
Circumvention Initiation Memoranda, the information provided by
domestic interested parties in this instance warrants initiating these
circumvention inquiries on a country-wide basis. Commerce has taken
this approach in prior circumvention inquiries, where the facts
warranted initiation on a country-wide basis.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ See Circumvention Initiation Memoranda. These memoranda are
public documents and available electronically online via Enforcement
and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
\13\ See, e.g., Certain Corrosion-Resistant Steel Products from
the Republic of Korea and Taiwan: Initiation of Anti-Circumvention
Inquiries on the Antidumping Duty and Countervailing Duty Orders, 83
FR 37785 (August 2, 2018); Carbon Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings from
the People's Republic of China: Initiation of Anti-Circumvention
Inquiry on the Antidumping Duty Order, 82 FR 40556, 40560 (August
25, 2017) (stating at initiation that Commerce would evaluate the
extent to which a country-wide finding applicable to all exports
might be warranted); and Certain Corrosion-Resistant Steel Products
from the People's Republic of China: Initiation of Anti-
Circumvention Inquiries on the Antidumping Duty and Countervailing
Duty Orders, 81 FR 79454, 79458 (November 14, 2016) (stating at
initiation that Commerce would evaluate the extent to which a
country-wide finding applicable to all exports might be warranted).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consistent with the approach in the prior circumvention inquiries
that were initiated on a country-wide basis, Commerce intends to issue
questionnaires to solicit information from producers and exporters in
Vietnam concerning their shipments of CWP China, CWP Korea, pipe and
tube India, pipe and tube Taiwan, CWP Taiwan, LWRPT China, LWRPT Korea,
and LWR tubing Taiwan, made respectively from Chinese, Indian, Korean,
or Taiwan-origin HRS to the United States. A company's failure to
respond completely to Commerce's requests for information may result in
the application of partial or total facts available, pursuant to
section 776(a) of the Act, which may include adverse inferences,
pursuant to section 776(b) of the Act.
Suspension of Liquidation
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.226(l)(1), Commerce will notify U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) of the initiation
[[Page 47714]]
and direct CBP to continue the suspension of liquidation of entries of
products subject to the circumvention inquiries that were already
subject to the suspension of liquidation under the Orders. Should
Commerce issue preliminary or final circumvention determinations,
Commerce will follow the suspension of liquidation rules under 19 CFR
351.226(l)(2)-(4).
Notification to Interested Parties
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(d) and section 781(b) of the Act,
Commerce determines that the domestic interested parties' requests for
these circumvention inquiries satisfy the requirements of 19 CFR
351.226(c). Accordingly, Commerce is notifying all interested parties
of the initiation of these circumvention inquiries to determine whether
certain imports of CWP China, CWP Korea, pipe and tube India, pipe and
tube Taiwan, CWP Taiwan, LWRPT China, LWRPT Korea, and LWR tubing
Taiwan, completed in and exported from Vietnam using HRS inputs
manufactured respectively in China, Korea, India, or Taiwan, are
circumventing the Orders. In addition, we have included a description
of the products that are the subject of these inquiries, and an
explanation of the reasons for Commerce's decision to initiate these
inquiries as provided above and in the accompanying Circumvention
Initiation Memoranda.\14\ In accordance with 19 CFR 351.226(e)(2),
Commerce intends to issue its final circumvention determination within
300 days from the date of publication of the notice of initiation of a
circumvention inquiry in the Federal Register.
