Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on our analysis of the comments received, we revised the 
effective date of these CCRs. For further discussion, see the Issues 
and Decision Memorandum.

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Reviews

    For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, Commerce 
continues to find that Borusan Boru is the successor-in-interest to 
BMB. As a result, we determine that Borusan Boru should receive the 
cash deposit rate previously assigned to the Borusan Mannesmann for 
merchandise subject to the Standard Pipe AD Order and Welded Line Pipe 
AD Order. Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) to collect cash deposits and suspend liquidation of 
all shipments of subject merchandise subject to the Standard Pipe AD 
Order and Welded Line Pipe AD Order produced or exported by Borusan 
Boru and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or 
after November 13, 2023, at the rate assigned to BMB.\6\ Further, 
Commerce will instruct CBP that Borusan Boru is entitled to its 
predecessor's exclusions from the OCTG AD Order and LDWP AD Order for 
entries of subject merchandise produced and exported by Borusan Boru. 
Lastly, these cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until 
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The current rate for BMB in the Standard Pipe AD Order is 
5.27 percent. See Circular Welded Carbon Steel Standard Pipe and 
Tube Products from Turkey: Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2021-2022, 88 FR 85592, 85593 (December 9, 
2023). The current rate for BMB in the Welded Line Pipe AD Order is 
zero percent. See Welded Line Pipe from the Republic of Korea and 
the Republic of Turkey: Antidumping Duty Orders, 80 FR 75056, 75057 
(December 1, 2015).
