Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat
Products From Germany and the
Republic of Korea: Final Results of Full
Sunset Reviews

Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On July 27, 2012, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) issued the preliminary
results of the full third sunset reviews
of the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’) orders
on certain corrosion-resistant carbon
steel flat products (‘‘CORE’’) from
Germany and the Republic of Korea
(‘‘Korea’’).1 We received comments from
interested parties on our Preliminary
Results. As a result of our analysis, the
Department finds that revocation of
these AD orders would likely lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at margins of dumping specified in the
‘‘Final Results of Reviews’’ section of
this notice.
DATES: Effective Date: December 6, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Background
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with
On January 3, 2012, the Department
initiated the third sunset review of the
AD orders on CORE from Germany and
Korea pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’).2 The Department received notices
of intent to participate from the
following domestic interested parties:
United States Steel Corporation (‘‘U.S.
Steel’’); ArcelorMittal USA LLC
(‘‘AMUSA’’); and Nucor Corporation
(‘‘Nucor’’), within the deadline specified

in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). The
domestic interested parties claimed
interested party status under section
771(9)(C) of the Act as U.S. producers of
the subject merchandise. The
Department received complete
substantive responses from the domestic
interested parties within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i).
The Department did not receive a
substantive response from any
respondent in either of the sunset
reviews of the AD orders on CORE from
Germany and Korea. As a result,
pursuant to 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department
determined to conduct expedited
reviews of these orders. However, on
April 20, 2012, the Department revised
its original adequacy determination and
determined to conduct full sunset
reviews.3 The conversion to full sunset
reviews and extension of the deadlines
for the preliminary results were done to
provide interested parties with an
opportunity to comment concerning the
implementation of the Final
Modification for Reviews.4
On July 27, 2012, the Department
published in the Preliminary Results of
the full third sunset review of the AD
order on CORE from Germany and
Korea.5 We preliminarily found that
dumping was likely to continue or
recur.
The Department invited interested
parties to comment on the Preliminary
Results. On September 17, 2012, we
received case briefs from AMUSA and
U.S. Steel. We did not receive a rebuttal
brief. We did not conduct a hearing in
either review because a hearing was not
requested.
As explained in the memorandum
from the Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, the Department
exercised its discretion to toll deadlines
for the duration of the closure of the
Federal Government from October 29,
through October 30, 2012. Thus, all
deadlines in this segment of the

products which have been ‘‘worked
after rolling’’)—for example, products
which have been beveled or rounded at
the edges.
Excluded from the scope of the orders
are flat-rolled steel products either
plated or coated with tin, lead,
chromium, chromium oxides, both tin
and lead (‘‘terne plate’’), or both

Final Results of Reviews
We determine that revocation of these
AD duty orders on CORE from Germany
and Korea would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping.
Further, we determine that the
magnitude of the margin likely to
prevail are at least 9.35 percent for
Thyssen Stahl AG and all other German
producers of CORE and at least 12.85
percent for all Korean producers and
exporters of CORE, other than POSCO.10
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice also serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to an
administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)
of their responsibility concerning the
return or destruction of proprietary
information disclosed under APO in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.305.
Timely notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and terms of an
APO is a violation which is subject to
sanction.
10 The order was revoked with respect to Pohang
Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. and Pohang Coated Steel Co.,
Ltd. (collectively, POSCO), who was the only
respondent examined in the original antidumping
investigation. See Certain Corrosion-Resistant

SUMMARY: On July 27, 2012, the Department of Commerce (``the
Department'') issued the preliminary results of the full third sunset
reviews of the antidumping duty (``AD'') orders on certain corrosion-
resistant carbon steel flat products (``CORE'') from Germany and the
Republic of Korea (``Korea'').\1\ We received comments from interested
parties on our Preliminary Results. As a result of our analysis, the
Department finds that revocation of these AD orders would likely lead
to continuation or recurrence of dumping at margins of dumping
specified in the ``Final Results of Reviews'' section of this notice.

We determine that revocation of these AD duty orders on CORE from
Germany and Korea would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping. Further, we determine that the magnitude of the margin
likely to prevail are at least 9.35 percent for Thyssen Stahl AG and
all other German producers of CORE and at least 12.85 percent for all
Korean producers and exporters of CORE, other than POSCO.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ The order was revoked with respect to Pohang Iron & Steel
Co., Ltd. and Pohang Coated Steel Co., Ltd. (collectively, POSCO),
who was the only respondent examined in the original antidumping
investigation. See Certain Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat
Products From the Republic of Korea: Notice of Final Results of the
2009-2010 Administrative Review and Revocation, in Part, 77 FR 14501
(March 12, 2012).
