Circuit) in The Timken Company v.
United States and China National
Machinery and Equipment Import and
Export Corporation, 893 F.2d 337 (Fed.
Cir. 1990) (Timken), the Department is
publishing this notice of the CIT’s
decision which is not in harmony with
the Department’s determination in the
2002–2003 antidumping duty
administrative review of pipes and
tubes from Thailand.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 5, 2002, the President of
the United States imposed safeguard
duties on imports of certain steel
products under Section 201 of the Trade
Act of 1974. See Proclamation No. 7529,
67 FR 10553 (March 7, 2002) (section
201 duties). This proclamation
mandated payment of a 15 percent duty
on certain imported steel products from
March 20, 2002, through March 19,
2003. Id. at 10590. These duties were
applicable to the merchandise that is
also subject to the antidumping duty
order on pipes and tubes from Thailand.
On April 8, 2004, the Department
issued the preliminary results of the
administrative review covering the
period March 1, 2002, through February
28, 2003. See Certain Welded Carbon
Steel Pipes and Tubes from Thailand:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review, 69 FR
18539 (Preliminary Results). This
administrative review involved one
company, Saha Thai Steel Pipe
Company, Ltd. (Saha Thai). For
purposes of the preliminary results of
review, the Department decided not to
adjust U.S. price, pending the
Department’s final consideration of
comments solicited in Antidumping
Proceedings: Treatment of Section 201
Duties and CVD Duties, 68 FR 53104
(September 9, 2003), on the treatment of
section 201 duties. The resulting
antidumping duty margin was 2.00
percent. See Preliminary Results. In the
final results of review, after considering
the arguments of the parties, the
Department followed the practice

from Republic of Korea: Final Results of

Jkt 208001
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 69 FR 19153 (April 12, 2004)
(Final Results) and did not deduct the
section 201 duties from EP. The margin
calculated for the final results was de
minimis (0.17 percent). See Certain
Welded Carbon Steel Pipes and Tubes
from Thailand: Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 69 FR 61649 (October 20, 2004).
Before the court, the plaintiffs,
domestic parties (Wheatland Tube
Company and Allied Tube & Conduit
Corporation), raised three issues – two
related to section 201 duties – and one
related to duty drawback. The Court
affirmed the Department on two issues
– the duty drawback and the adjustment
to U.S. price for billing adjustments tied
to the section 201 duties. Wheatland
Tube Co. v. United States, 414 F. Supp.
2d. 1271 (CIT 2006). However, the Court
overturned the Department’s decision to
treat section 201 duties in the same way
it treats antidumping duties and
directed the Department ‘‘to recalculate
Saha Thai’s dumping margin after
deducting section 201 duties from EP
(export price) in accordance with 19
U.S.C. § 1677a(c)(2)(A).’’ Id. At 1288.
On March 1, 2006, the Department
filed the results of its redetermination
pursuant the Court’s remand. In the
redetermination, the Department
followed the Court’s order and deducted
the section 201 duties from export price.
The resulting antidumping duty margin
was 4.13 percent. On May 16, 2006, the
Court sustained the Department’s
remand redetermination. Wheatland
Tube Co. v. United States, Slip Op 06–
71.
Notification
In its decision in Timken, the Federal
Circuit held that, pursuant to 19 U.S.C.
1516a(e), the Department must publish
notice of a CIT decision which is not ‘‘in
harmony’’ with the Department’s
determination. The CIT’s decision in
Wheatland Tube Company regarding the
201 duties is not in harmony with the
Department’s determination in the final
results of 2002–2003 antidumping duty
administrative review of pipes and
tubes from Thailand. Therefore,
publication of this notice fulfils the
Department’s obligation under 19 U.S.C.
1516a(e). The Department will enforce
the injunction still in place by
continuing to suspend liquidation of
any unliquidated entries, pending the
expiration of the period to appeal the
CIT’s May 16, 2006, decision, or, if that
decision is appealed, pending a final
decision by the Federal Circuit. If the
CIT decision becomes final and
conclusive, the Department will issue
