Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 6 / Wednesday, January 10, 2007 / Notices
Determination
As a result of the determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping and material
injury to an industry in the United
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of
the Act, the Department hereby orders
the continuation of the antidumping
duty order on foundry coke products
from the PRC. U.S. Customs and Border
Protection will continue to collect
antidumping duty cash deposits at the
rates in effect at the time of entry for all
imports of subject merchandise. This
review covers imports from all
manufacturers and exporters of foundry
coke from the PRC.
The effective date of continuation of
this order will be the date of publication
in the Federal Register of this Notice of
Continuation. Pursuant to sections
751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the Act, the
Department intends to initiate the next
five-year review of this order not later
than December 2011.
This five-year (‘‘sunset’’) review and
notice are in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Background
On August 11, 1995, the Department
published the antidumping duty order
on OCTG from Argentina. See
Antidumping Duty Order: Oil Country
Tubular Goods from Argentina, 60 FR
41055 (August 11, 1995). On August 1,
2006, we published in the Federal
Register a notice of opportunity to
request administrative reviews. See
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation; Opportunity to Request
Administrative Review, 71 FR 43441
(August 1, 2006). On August 31, 2006,
United States Steel Corporation
(petitioner) requested that the
Department conduct an administrative
review of sales of the subject
merchandise made by Siderca.
On September 29, 2006, the
Department published a notice of
initiation of this administrative review.
See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in
Part, 71 FR 57465 (September 29, 2006).
The Department issued its antidumping
duty questionnaire to Siderca on
October 13, 2006. In response, Siderca
stated in a November 1, 2006,
submission that it had no entries for
consumption of subject merchandise of
OCTG during the POR, and requested
that the Department rescind the
administrative review with respect to
Siderca.
On October 30, 2006, the Department
placed on the record of the review
copies of documents regarding entries of
subject merchandise from Argentina
that it obtained from U. S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP). On November
20, 2006, the Department issued a letter
to petitioners, domestic interested
parties, and Siderca stating that the
Department intended to rescind the
review for want of a reviewable
consumption entry by Siderca. We
invited parties to submit comments on
our intent to rescind the review. We
requested that any comments be
submitted by December 1, 2006. We
received no comments.
Period of Review
The POR is August 1, 2005, through
July 31, 2006.

Scope of the Review
OCTG are hollow steel products of
circular cross-section, including oil well
casing and tubing of iron (other than
cast iron) or steel (both carbon and
alloy), whether seamless or welded,
whether or not conforming to American
Petroleum Institute (API) or non–API
specifications, whether finished or
unfinished (including green tubes and
limited service OCTG products).
This scope does not cover casing or
tubing pipe containing 10.5 percent or
more of chromium. Drill pipe was
excluded from this order beginning
August 11, 2001. See Continuation of

Rescission of Review
On November 1, 2006, Siderca
informed the Department that it did not
ship OCTG to the United States during
the POR, and requested that we rescind
the administrative review. The
Department subsequently obtained and
reviewed entry documents from CBP,
and found no evidence that Siderca had
knowledge that any of its production
E:\FR\FM\10JAN1.SGM

1216
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 6 / Wednesday, January 10, 2007 / Notices
was destined for the United States. In a
November 20, 2006, letter to parties, we
requested comments from parties on
this determination, and received no
comments. Therefore, based on our
review of CBP documents, we are
satisfied there were no entries of subject
merchandise subject to this
administrative review. Accordingly, we
are rescinding the review.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the
Department may rescind an
administrative review, in whole or with
respect to a particular exporter or
producer, if the Secretary concludes
that, during the period covered by the
review, there were no entries, exports,
or sales of the subject merchandise.
Because the evidence on the record
shows that there were no entries of
OCTG made by Siderca during the POR,
the Department is rescinding this review
in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(3). The Department will
issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP within fifteen days
of publication of this notice.
Notification to Importers
mstockstill on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under section 351.402(f) of the
Department’s regulations to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in the Secretary’s assumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and subsequent assessment of
double antidumping duties. This notice
also serves as a reminder to parties
subject to administrative protective
order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of
proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with section
351.305(a)(3) of the Department’s
regulations. Timely written notification
of the return/destruction of APO
materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and the terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (as
amended) and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

Rescission of Review
On November 1, 2006, Siderca informed the Department that it did
not ship OCTG to the United States during the POR, and requested that
we rescind the administrative review. The Department subsequently
obtained and reviewed entry documents from CBP, and found no evidence
that Siderca had knowledge that any of its production
[[Page 1216]]
was destined for the United States. In a November 20, 2006, letter to
parties, we requested comments from parties on this determination, and
received no comments. Therefore, based on our review of CBP documents,
we are satisfied there were no entries of subject merchandise subject
to this administrative review. Accordingly, we are rescinding the
review.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the Department may rescind an
administrative review, in whole or with respect to a particular
exporter or producer, if the Secretary concludes that, during the
period covered by the review, there were no entries, exports, or sales
of the subject merchandise. Because the evidence on the record shows
that there were no entries of OCTG made by Siderca during the POR, the
Department is rescinding this review in accordance with 19 CFR

instructions to CBP within fifteen days of publication of this notice.
