applications and the above–listed
specifications are defining
characteristics of the scope of this
review. Therefore, seamless pipes
meeting the physical description above,
but not produced to the ASTM A- 53,
ASTM A–106, ASTM A–333, ASTM A–
334, ASTM A–589, ASTM A–795, and
API 5L specifications shall be covered if
used in a standard, line, or pressure
application, with the exception of the
specific exclusions discussed below.
For example, there are certain other
ASTM specifications of pipe which,
because of overlapping characteristics,
could potentially be used in ASTM A–
106 applications. These specifications
generally include ASTM A–161, ASTM
A–192, ASTM A–210, ASTM A–252,
ASTM A–501, ASTM A–523, ASTM A–
524, and ASTM A–618. When such
pipes are used in a standard, line, or
pressure pipe application, such
products are covered by the scope of
this review.
Specifically excluded from the scope
of this review are:
A. Boiler tubing and mechanical
tubing, if such products are not
produced to ASTM A–53, ASTM
A–106, ASTM A–333, ASTM A–
334, ASTM A–589, ASTM A–795,
and API 5L specifications and are
not used in standard, line, or
pressure pipe applications.
B. Finished and unfinished oil
country tubular goods (OCTG), if
covered by the scope of another
antidumping duty order from the
same country. If not covered by
such an OCTG order, finished and
unfinished OCTG are included in
this scope when used in standard,
line or pressure applications.
C. Products produced to the A–335
specification unless they are used
in an application that would
normally utilize ASTM A–53,
ASTM A–106, ASTM A–333, ASTM
A–334, ASTM A–589, ASTM A–
795, and API 5L specifications.
D. Line and riser pipe for deepwater
application, i.e., line and riser pipe
that is (1) used in a deepwater
application, which means for use in
water depths of 1,500 feet or more;
(2) intended for use in and is
actually used for a specific
deepwater project; (3) rated for a
specified minimum yield strength
of not less than 60,000 psi; and (4)
not identified or certified through
the use of a monogram, stencil, or
otherwise marked with an API
specification (e.g., ‘‘API 5L’’).
With regard to the excluded products
listed above, the Department will not
instruct Customs to require end–use
certification until such time as

petitioner or other interested parties
provide to the Department a reasonable
basis to believe or suspect that the
products are being utilized in a covered
application. If such information is
provided, we will require end–use
certification only for the product(s) (or
specification(s)) for which evidence is
provided that such products are being
used in a covered application as
described above. For example, if, based
on evidence provided by petitioner, the
Department finds a reasonable basis to
believe or suspect that seamless pipe
produced to the A–335 specification is
being used in an A–106 application, we
will require end–use certifications for
imports of that specification. Normally
we will require only the importer of
record to certify to the end use of the
imported merchandise. If it later proves
necessary for adequate implementation,
we may also require producers who
export such products to the United
States to provide such certification on
invoices accompanying shipments to
the United States.
Although the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, our written description of the
merchandise subject to this scope is
dispositive.
Rescission of the Administrative
Review
As noted above, all four respondents
submitted letters to the Department
indicating that they did not make any
shipments or entries of subject
merchandise to the United States during
the POR. In response to the
Department’s query to U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP), CBP data
showed a small quantity of subject
merchandise manufactured by one or
more of the respondent companies was
entered for consumption into the United
States during the POR from a third
country. On November 8, 2007, the
Department placed on the record of this
review copies of the entry documents in
question. On the basis of these
documents, the Department concluded
that there is no evidence on the record
that the respondents in question were
involved with the 2007 entries of the
subject merchandise into the United
States. Specifically, although JFE Steel
Corporation, Nippon Steel Corporation,
NKK Tubes, and Sumitomo Metal
Industries, Ltd. did not have any sales
or exports of subject merchandise to the
United States during the POR, subject
merchandise produced by one or more
of these companies entered the United
States during the POR under their
antidumping case number, without their
knowledge by way of intermediaries.

Salim Bhabhrawala, Case Analyst,
‘‘Department Intent to Rescind Review,’’
January 16, 2008 (Intent to Rescind
Memo). Thus, the Department found
that the respondents’ claims of no
shipments or entries for consumption to
be substantiated. On January 16, 2008,
the Department notified interested
parties of its intent to rescind this
administrative review and gave parties
until January 28, 2008 to provide
comments. No comments were received.
See Intent to Rescind Memo.
Based upon the certifications and the
evidence on the record, we are satisfied
that no respondent had shipments of
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR. 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. Therefore, the Department
is rescinding this review in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
The Department will instruct CBP 15
days after the publication of this notice
to liquidate such entries at the ‘‘All
Others’’ rate in effect on the date of the
entry. See 19 CFR 351.212(c); see also

covering the period January 1, 2007,
through July 31, 2007. See Wooden

provides that the Department will issue
the preliminary results of a new shipper
review of an antidumping duty order
within 180 days after the day on which
the review was initiated. See also 19
CFR 351.214 (i)(1). The Act further
provides that the Department may
extend that 180-day period to 300 days
if it determines that the case is
extraordinarily complicated. See 19 CFR
351.214 (i)(2).
Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary
Results
The Department determines that these
new shipper reviews involve
complicated methodological issues and
the examination of importer
information. Therefore, in accordance
with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2), the
Department is extending the time limit
for these preliminary results by 90 days,
until no later than May 27, 2008. The
final results continue to be due 90 days
after the publication of the preliminary
results.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
