Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues addressed in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum is attached as an appendix to this notice.
[[Page 86788]]
Use of Adverse Facts Available (AFA)
As discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we continue to
assign to the mandatory respondent in this administrative review, Pipe
& Piling,\6\ an estimated weighted-average dumping margin based on AFA,
pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of Act.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ In the Preliminary Results, we found that Pipe & Piling is
affiliated with 1045761 Ontario Ltd. (Phoenix) and
Spiralco Inc. (Spiralco) and that they should be collapsed and
treated as a single entity. See Preliminary Results PDM at 1.
\7\ Id. at 3-11.

Commerce determines that the following estimated weighted-average
dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2022, through April 30,

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce will disclose to the parties in a proceeding the
calculations performed in connection with a final results of review
within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public
announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice
of final results in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b). However, because we have made no changes to the application
of AFA to Pipe & Piling from the Preliminary Results, there are no
calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of
this review.
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review 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
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date in the
Federal Register of the final results of this administrative review, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate
for Pipe & Piling will be equal to the dumping margin established in
the final results of this review; (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above, the cash deposit will continue
to be the company-specific rate published for the most recently
completed segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this
review or the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the
producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established
for the most recent segment for the producer of the merchandise; and
(4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will
continue to be 12.32 percent, the all-others rate established in the
LTFV investigation.\8\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See Order, 85 FR 18776.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR. 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.
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), which continues to govern
business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding.
Timely written notification of return/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
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.
Dated: October 25, 2024.
