SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular welded non-alloy steel pipe (CWP) from the Republic of Korea (Korea). The period of review (POR) is November 1, 2010, through October 31, 2011, and the review covers two producers/exporters of the subject merchandise, Husteel Co., Ltd. (Husteel) and Hyundai HYSCO (HYSCO). We have preliminarily found that one respondent has made sales of the subject merchandise at prices below normal value. We are also rescinding this review for seven other producers/ exporters. AGENCY: DATES: Effective Date: December 7, 2012.

Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe From the Republic of Korea: 
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2010-
2011

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular welded 
non-alloy steel pipe (CWP) from the Republic of Korea (Korea). The 
period of review (POR) is November 1, 2010, through October 31, 2011, 
and the review covers two producers/exporters of the subject 
merchandise, Husteel Co., Ltd. (Husteel) and Hyundai HYSCO (HYSCO). We 
have preliminarily found that one respondent has made sales of the 
subject merchandise at prices below normal value. We are also 
rescinding this review for seven other producers/exporters.

DATES: Effective Date: December 7, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mary Kolberg, or Jennifer Meek, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office 1, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington DC 20230; telephone (202) 482-1785 
or (202) 482-2778, respectively.

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the order is circular welded non-alloy 
steel pipe and tube. The product is currently classifiable under the 
following Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) subheadings: 7306.30.10.00, 
7306.30.50.25, 7306.30.50.32, 7306.30.50.40, 7306.30.50.55, 
7306.30.50.85, and 7306.30.50.90. Although the HTS subheadings are 
provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written product 
description, available in Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe From the 
Republic of Korea; Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review, 63 FR 32833 (June 16, 1998), remains dispositive.

Partial Rescission of Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this 
administrative review with respect to the following parties because the 
review requests were timely withdrawn: Dongbu Steel Co., Ltd., SeAH 
Steel Corporation, A-JU Besteel Co., Ltd., Kumkang Industrial Co., 
Ltd., Nexteel Co., Ltd., Korea Iron & Steel Co., Ltd., and Union Steel 
Co., Ltd.

Methodology

    The Department has conducted this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Constructed 
export price is calculated in accordance with section 772 of the Act. 
Normal value is calculated in accordance with section 773 of the Act. 
In accordance with section 773(b) of the Act, we disregarded certain 
sales made by Husteel and HYSCO in the home market which were made at 
below-cost prices.
    For a full description of the methodology underlying our 
conclusions, see the memorandum from Gary Taverman, Senior Advisor for 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Ronald K. Lorentzen, 
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, ``Preliminary

Assessment Rates

    For Husteel and HYSCO, upon issuance of the final results, the 
Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries 
covered by this review. Husteel and HYSCO reported the name of the 
importer of record and the entered value for all of their sales to the 
United States during the POR. If Husteel and HYSCO's weighted-average 
dumping margins are above de minimis (i.e., 0.50 percent) in the final 
results of this review, we will calculate an importer-specific 
assessment rate on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of 
dumping calculated for the importer's examined sales and the total 
entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003. This clarification will apply to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by Husteel and HYSCO for which they 
did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In 
such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at 
the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate 
company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this 
clarification, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
    For Husteel and HYSCO, we intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 
days after publication of the final results of this review.
    For the rescinded companies, antidumping duties shall be assessed 
at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties 
required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for 
consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department 
intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after the date of publication of this notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a preliminary reminder and, with respect to 
companies which we rescind in part as a final reminder, to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) 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 presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    The Department is issuing and publishing these results in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
