administrative review to reflect the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 21, 2001, the Department
published the final results of the
antidumping duty administrative review
on oil country tubular goods (‘‘OCTG’’)
for the period August 1, 1998 to July 31,
1999. See Oil Country Tubular Goods
from Mexico: Final Results of
Antidumping Review and Determination
Not To Revoke in Part, 66 FR 15832
(‘‘Final Results’’) and accompanying
Issues and Decision Memorandum
(‘‘Decision Memo’’). The Department
reviewed sales to the United States by
Hylsa S.A. de C.V. (‘‘Hylsa’’) and Tubos
de Aceros de Mexico, S.A. (‘‘TAMSA’’),
both Mexican producers of OCTG. In the
fourth administrative review, both
TAMSA and Hylsa requested revocation
from the order in accordance with 19
CFR § 351.222(e)(1). The Department
declined to revoke the order in part with
respect to TAMSA, as it determined that
TAMSA ‘‘did not sell the subject
merchandise in the United States in
commercial quantities in each of the
three years cited by TAMSA to support
its request for revocation.’’ See Decision
Memo at page 10. The Department
declined to revoke the order in part with
respect to Hylsa due to the finding of a
dumping margin in the Final Results. Id.
at 23.
Subsequent to the completion of the
fourth administrative review, both Hylsa
and TAMSA challenged the
Department’s findings and requested
that a Bi–National Panel review the final
determination. A public hearing was
held on July 20, 2005, in Washington,
D.C., at which oral arguments were
presented by the parties. The Panel
issued a Decision of the Panel on
January 27, 2006, upholding the
Department’s determinations with
respect to TAMSA, but remanding the
review to the Department with respect
to Hylsa (i.e., to recalculate Hylsa’s
packing cost and cost of production
(‘‘COP’’) on a product–specific basis).

Jkt 211001
MEX–01–1904–05 (January 27, 2006)
(‘‘First Decision’’).
In accordance with the First Decision,
the Department filed its remand results
on April 27, 2006. Based on the
instructions of the Panel, the
Department recalculated Hylsa’s
packing and cost of production by
product costs and calculated a new
antidumping duty margin of zero for
Hylsa. The Department then conducted
a revocation analysis, but found that
Hylsa did not ship in commercial
quantities to the U.S. market during the
time period under consideration and
found that dumping by Hylsa in the
ninth administrative review was
relevant to the determination of whether
the antidumping duty order was
otherwise necessary to offset dumping.
Based on these factors, the Department
declined to revoke the order. See
Redetermination on Remand, Oil
Country Tubular Goods from Mexico:
Fourth Administrative Review, April 27,
2006.
On August 11, 2006, the Panel again
remanded the decision to the
Department for further consideration.
See In the Matter of: Oil Country
Tubular Goods from Mexico; Final
Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review and
Determination Not to Revoke, USA–
MEX–01–1904–05 (August 11, 2006)
(‘‘Second Decision’’). The Panel rejected
the Department’s reliance on the results
of the ninth administrative review and
also directed the Department to
reexamine its revocation analysis ‘‘in
light of the issues raised by the Panel.’’
Id. at 21. In accordance with the Second
Decision, the Department reexamined
Hylsa’s request for revocation under 19
CFR § 351.222(e)(1) and determined that
Hylsa had not made sales in commercial
quantities for the three review periods
under analysis. See Redetermination on
Remand, Oil Country Tubular Goods
from Mexico: Fourth Administrative
Review, October 5, 2006 at 13–16.
On January 16, 2007, the Panel
affirmed the Department’s second
remand redetermination. See In the
Matter of: Oil Country Tubular Goods
from Mexico; Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review and Determination Not to
Revoke, USA–MEX–01–1904–05
(January 16, 2007). The Panel issued its
Notice of Final Panel Action on
February 2, 2007. On March 14, 2007,
the NAFTA Secretariat published a
notice of completion of the panel
review. See North American Free–Trade
Agreement, Article 1904 NAFTA Panel
Reviews; Notice of Completion of Panel
Review, 72 FR 11847 (March 14, 2007).
The Department also published a notice
PO 00000

Sfmt 4703

of the NAFTA decision not in harmony
with the final results of the fourth
administrative review. See Oil Country
Tubular Goods from Mexico: Notice of
NAFTA Panel Decision Not In Harmony
With Final Results of Administrative
Review, 72 FR 12761 (March 19, 2007).
Amendment to Final Results
We are now amending the final
results of this administrative review to
reflect the final decision of the Panel.
The changes to our calculations with
respect to Hylsa resulted in a change in
the weighted–average margin from 0.79
percent to zero percent for the period of
review. The Department will instruct
U.S. Customs and Border Protection to
liquidate entries of OCTG from Mexico
produced by TAMSA and Hylsa at the
assessment rates the Department
calculated for these amended final
results of review.
Assessment
The Department intends to issue
assessment instructions to U.S. Customs
and Border Protection 41 days after the
date of publication of this decision. See
section 356.8(a) of the Department’s
regulations.
This notice 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 19 CFR § 351.305(a)(3). Timely
written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and terms of an APO is a
sanctionable violation.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended.
Dated: April 2, 2007.
