participation in the subsequent
environmental review process. First,
reviewers of draft statement must
structure their participation in the
environmental review of the proposal so
that it is meaningful and alerts an
agency to the reviewer’s position and
contentions. Vermont Yankee Nuclear
Power Corp. v. NRDC, 435 U.S. 519,553
(1978). Also, environmental objections
that could be raised at the draft
environmental impact statement stage
but that are not raised until after
completion of the final environmental
impact statement may be waived or
dismissed by the courts. City of Angoon
v. Hodel, 803 F.2d 1016, 1022 (9th Cir.
1986) and Wisconsin Heritages, Inc.
Harris, 490 F. Supp. 1334, 1338 (E.D.
Wis. 1980).
Because of these court rulings, it is
very important that those interested in
this proposed action participate during
the scoping period so that substantive
comments and objections are made
available to the Forest Service at a time
when it can meaningfully consider them
and respond to them in the
development of the alternatives. To
assist the Forest Service in identifying
and considering issues and concerns on
the proposed action, comments on the
proposed action should be as specific as
possible.

Background
On February 15, 2005, Yieh Phui
requested the Department to conduct an
expedited changed circumstance review
of the antidumping duty order on
certain circular welded carbon steel
pipes and tubes from Taiwan. The
Department determined that the
information submitted by Yieh Phui was
sufficient to warrant initiation of
changed circumstance review and, on
April 4, 2005, the Department published
the Initiation Notice for this review.
Yieh Phui claims to be a successor–ininterest to Yieh Hsing after it acquired
Yieh Hsing’s pipe production facilities.
On April 6, 2005, the Department issued
Yieh Phui a questionnaire requesting
further details on the acquisition of the
pipe facilities. Yieh Phui responded on
April 29, 2005. On May 17, 2005, the
Department issued a second
supplemental questionnaire, to which
Yieh Phui responded on June 13, 2005.
The evidence on the record shows
that Yieh Phui operates in essentially
the same manner in terms of
production, management and customer
base as did Yieh Hsing prior to the
transfer of its pipe facilities. In
analyzing the totality of the factors on
the record with respect to the transfer of
the pipe operations, the Department
preliminarily concluded that Yieh Phui

SUMMARY: On April 4, 2005, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published a notice of
initiation of changed circumstance
review of the antidumping order on
certain circular welded carbon steel
pipes and tubes from Taiwan to
determine whether Yieh Phui
Enterprise, Ltd. (Yieh Phui) is a
successor–in-interest to Yieh Hsing
Enterprise, Ltd. (Yieh Hsing). See

was the successor–in-interest to Yieh
Hsing and ought to be accorded the
same antidumping duty treatment as its
predecessor. See Preliminary Results.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by this order are
shipments of certain circular welded
carbon steel pipes and tubes. The
Department defines such merchandise
as welded carbon steel pipes and tubes
of circular cross section, with walls not
thinner than 0.065 inch and 0.375 inch
or more but not over 4.5 inches in
outside diameter. These products are
commonly referred to in the industry as
‘‘standard pipe’’ and are produced to
various American Society for Testing
Materials specifications, most notably
A–53, A–120 and A–135. Standard pipe
is currently classified under
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS) item numbers
7306.30.5025, 7306.30.5032,
7306.30.5040, and 7306.30.5055.
Although the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
merchandise under the order is
dispositive.
Final Results of Changed Circumstance
Review
For the reasons stated in the
Preliminary Results, we determine that
Yieh Phui is the successor–in-interest to
Yieh Hsing for antidumping duty
purposes. The Department did not
receive any comments or requests for a
hearing from either party within the
time frames established in the
Preliminary Results. As a result, Yieh
Phui will receive the same antidumping
duty cash–deposit rate (i.e., 1.61
percent) that was calculated and applied
to Yieh Hsing during the most recent
administrative review under this order.
See Certain Circular Welded Carbon
Steel Pipes and Tubes from Taiwan:
Final Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 69 FR 58390
(September 30, 2004). The Department
will instruct the U.S. Customs and
Border Protection to collect cash
deposits at a rate of 1.61 percent for all
entries made by Yieh Phui of the subject
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication of the final
results of this changed circumstance
review.
Notification Regarding APOs
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APOs) of their

Background
On December 1, 2004, the Department
published an opportunity to request a
review for porcelain–on-steel cooking
ware from the People’s Republic of
China (‘‘PRC’’) for the period of
December 1, 2003, to November 30,
2004. See Antidumping or

August 11, 2005, the Department
published a notice of extension of time
limit for the preliminary results of this
administrative review extending the
time limit for the preliminary results by
90 days until December 1, 2005. See
Porcelain–on-Steel Cooking Ware from
the People’s Republic of China:
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results of the Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 70 FR 46813
(August 11, 2005). The preliminary
results of this administrative review are
currently due December 1, 2005.
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results
Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’), the Department shall issue
preliminary results in an administrative
review of an antidumping duty order
within 245 days after the last day of the
anniversary month of the date of
publication of the order for which a
review is requested and the final results
within 120 days after the date on which
the preliminary results are published.
However, if it is not practicable to
complete the review within the
specified time periods, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend these deadlines to
a maximum of 365 days and 180 days,
respectively.
Completion of the preliminary results
within the originally anticipated time
limit, December 1, 2005, is
impracticable because this review
requires the Department to analyze
complex issues regarding Watex’s
corporate structure and its affiliations
and corporate relationships. Because it
is not practicable to complete the review
within the time specified under the Act,
the Department is extending the time
limit for completion of the preliminary
results by 14 days to December 15, 2005,
in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A)
of the Act. The deadline for the final
results of this administrative review
continues to be 120 days after the
publication of the preliminary results.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with section
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: November 22, 2005.

Background
On August 8, 2005, the Department of

the preliminary results of this
administrative review of silicon metal
from Brazil. See Silicon Metal From
Brazil: Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 70 FR 45665 (August 8, 2005)
(‘‘Preliminary Results’’). In the
Preliminary Results we stated that we
would make our final determination for
the antidumping duty review no later
than 120 days after the date of
publication of the preliminary results
(i.e., December 6, 2005).
Extension of Time Limit for Final
Results
The Department is extending the time
limit for the final results of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on silicon
metal from Brazil. This review covers
the period July 1, 2003, through June 30,
2004.
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act states
that if it is not practicable to complete
the review within the time specified, the
administering authority may extend the
120–day period, following the date of
publication of the preliminary results, to
issue its final results by an additional 60
days. Completion of the final results
within the 120–day period is not
practicable due to a delay in the
schedule for submission of interested
party arguments and given the number
and complexity of issues raised in this
review segment, including issues
regarding depreciation and financial
expenses.
Therefore, in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department
is extending the time period for issuing
