SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 12, 2025, Commerce published the Preliminary Results
in the Federal Register and invited comments from interested
parties.\1\ On November 17, 2025, Pipe & Piling submitted a case
brief.\2\ On January 13, 2026, the petitioner \3\ submitted a rebuttal
brief.\4\

Results and Rescission, in Part, of Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review; 2023-2024, 90 FR 44165 (September 12, 2025) (Preliminary
Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM).
\2\ Pipe & Piling timely submitted its case brief on November
17, 2025. However, because we determined that Pipe & Piling's case
brief contained new factual information, on April 20, 2026, we
rejected it and directed Pipe & Piling to resubmit its case brief
with the new factual information redacted. See Commerce's Letter,
``Rejection of Case Brief,'' dated April 20, 2026. On April 23,
2026, Pipe & Piling submitted a revised version of its case brief.
See Pipe & Piling's Case Brief, ``Case Brief Resubmission,'' dated

\3\ The petitioner is the American Line Pipe Producers
Association Trade Committee.
\4\ See Petitioner's Brief, ``Rebuttal Brief Resubmission,''
dated January 13, 2026.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown,
on November 14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative
proceedings by 47 days.\5\ Additionally, due to a backlog of documents
that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service
System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24,
2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an
additional 21 days.\6\ On March 13, 2026, Commerce extended the
deadline for these final results by 15 days.\7\ Accordingly, the
deadline for these final results is now April 27, 2026.

Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, we preliminarily determined that Evraz
made no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR.\12\ No party
commented on our preliminary no shipments determination for Evraz in
the Preliminary Results. Therefore, for the final results, we continue
to find that Evraz made no shipments of subject merchandise during the
POR.

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.
[[Page 23395]]
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on
all appropriate entries of subject merchandise for in accordance with
the final results of this review.
For Pipe & Piling, we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries based on the dumping margin listed in
the ``Final Results of Review'' section, above. For Evraz, we will
instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at
the rate equal to the cash deposit rate of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, during the POR, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(1)(i).
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP regarding
Pipe & Piling and Evraz no earlier than 41 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.\13\ These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

\13\ See Order, 85 FR at 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 (APO)
This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to an
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

751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.
