SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 10, 2014, Commerce published in the Federal Register 
the AD orders on OCTG from India, Korea, T[uuml]rkiye, and Vietnam.\1\ 
On September 10, 2014, Commerce published in the Federal Register the 
CVD orders on OCTG from India and T[uuml]rkiye.\2\ On July 16, 2019, 
following the termination of the agreement that suspended the 
antidumping duty investigation on OCTG from Ukraine, Commerce published 
the Ukraine Order in the Federal Register.\3\ On July 1, 2025, the ITC 
instituted,\4\ and Commerce initiated,\5\ the second sunset review of 
the Orders,\6\ pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act). As a result of its reviews, Commerce determined that 
revocation of the Orders would likely lead to the continuation or 
recurrence of dumping and countervailable subsidies, and therefore, 
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping and subsidy 
rates likely to prevail should the Orders be revoked.\7\
