SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
Form BE–140, Benchmark Survey of
Insurance Transactions by U.S.
Insurance Companies with Foreign
Persons, obtains annual data from all
U.S. insurance companies that engage in
the following international insurance
transactions: (1) Premiums earned on
reinsurance assumed from insurance
companies resident abroad; (2) losses
incurred on reinsurance assumed from
insurance companies resident abroad;
(3) premiums earned on primary
insurance sold to foreign persons; (4)
losses incurred on primary insurance
sold to foreign persons; (5) premiums
incurred on reinsurance ceded to
VerDate Mar<15>2010

insurance companies resident abroad;
(6) losses recovered on reinsurance
ceded to insurance companies resident
abroad; (7) receipts for auxiliary
insurance services; and (8) payments for
auxiliary insurance services. In
addition, insurance companies with
transactions in at least one of the eight
categories listed above that exceed $2
million must supply country specific
data on the amount of their insurance
transactions for each category.
The data are needed to monitor U.S.
international trade in insurance
services, analyze its impact on the U.S.
economy and foreign economies,
compile and improve the U.S. economic
accounts, support U.S. commercial
policy on insurance services, conduct
trade promotion, and improve the
ability of U.S. businesses to identify and
evaluate market opportunities.
This survey is conducted at five year
intervals; it was last conducted for 2008
and will be conducted again for 2013.
The 2013 survey will be sent to
respondents on March 30, 2014 and
reports are due by June 30, 2014.
Two changes are proposed to the 2013
BE–140 form: (1) drop questions on
finite reinsurance because finite
reinsurance is a dated concept that is no
longer relevant, and (2) add questions to
identify the transaction code, size, type
and nature of large and irregular
transactions, defined as those contracts
with premiums ceded or assumed in
excess of $1 billion and that are at least
three times the size of a reporter’s
average regular contract. The new
information will allow BEA to measure
more accurately insurance services on
an accrual basis and to exclude
transactions that are not related to
insurance services.
II. Method of Collection
The surveys are sent to the
respondents by U.S. mail and are also
available from the BEA Web site.
Respondents may return the surveys one
of four ways: U.S. mail, electronically
using BEA’s electronic collection system
(eFile), fax, or email.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0608–0073.
Form Number: BE–140.

for-profit organizations.

IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Agency,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of
the Agency’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the

burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Comments submitted in
response to this notice will be
summarized and/or included in the
request for OMB approval of this
information collection; they also will
become a matter of public record.

the Orders) pursuant to section 751(c) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act).2 On the basis of a notice of intent
to participate, and an adequate
substantive response filed on behalf of
domestic interested parties, as well as a
lack of response from respondent
interested parties, the Department
conducted expedited (120-day) sunset
reviews of the Orders pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(A) and (C)(2). As a
result of these sunset reviews, the
Department finds that revocation of the
Orders would likely lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at the levels indicated in the ‘‘Final
Results of Review’’ section of this
notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 2, 2013, the Department
initiated sunset reviews of the Orders
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act.3
On April 12, 2013, the Department
received notices of intent to participate
from the following domestic interested
parties: Bull Moose Tube Company,
California Steel and Tube, Hannibal
Industries, JMC Steel Group, Maruichi
American Corporation, Searing
Industries, Southland Tube, and
Western Tube and Conduit (collectively,
the domestic interested parties), within
the deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i).4 The domestic
interested parties claimed interested
party status under section 771(9)(c) of
the Act, as U.S. manufacturers of lightwalled pipe and tube. On May 1, 2013,
the Department received adequate
substantive responses from the domestic
interested parties within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i).5 The Department
received no responses from producers or
exporters of light-walled pipe and tube
from any of the countries subject to
these sunset reviews. While the
Department received general comments
from the Government of Turkey (GOT)
concerning the Turkish market for, and
the production and exportation of, lightwalled pipe and tube products, the
Department previously had informed
the GOT that such comments, while
permitted, would not constitute
substantive responses from Turkish
producers, because these sunset reviews
concern the antidumping duty order
(and not a countervailing duty order
under 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B)).6
Based on the submissions received
and pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), these sunset
reviews were conducted on an
expedited basis.
7306.61.50.00 and 7306.61.70.60. While
HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of the
Orders is dispositive.7
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in this review are
addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, including the likelihood
of a continuation or recurrence of
dumping in the event of revocation, as
well as the magnitude of dumping
margins likely to prevail upon
revocation. A complete discussion of
the issues raised is available in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum,
which is a public document on file in
the Central Records Unit (CRU), room
7046 of the main Department of
Commerce building, as well as
electronically via Import
Administration’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (IA ACCESS).
IA ACCESS is available to registered
users at https://iaaccess.trade.gov, and
available to all parties in the CRU. In
addition, a complete version of the
Issues and Decision Memorandum can
be accessed directly on the Internet at
https://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn. The signed and
electronic versions of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum are identical in
content.

SUMMARY: On April 2, 2013, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
initiated the first sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on
light-walled rectangular pipe and tube (light-walled pipe and tube)
from the Mexico, Turkey, the People's Republic of China (PRC), and the

the Orders) pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).\2\ On the basis of a notice of intent to
participate, and an adequate substantive response filed on behalf of
domestic interested parties, as well as a lack of response from
respondent interested parties, the Department conducted expedited (120-
day) sunset reviews of the Orders pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(A) and (C)(2). As a result of
these sunset reviews, the Department finds that revocation of the
Orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at
the levels indicated in the ``Final Results of Review'' section of this
notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 2, 2013, the Department initiated sunset reviews of the
Orders pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act.\3\ On April 12, 2013, the
Department received notices of intent to participate from the following
domestic interested parties: Bull Moose Tube Company, California Steel
and Tube, Hannibal Industries, JMC Steel Group, Maruichi American
Corporation, Searing Industries, Southland Tube, and Western Tube and
Conduit (collectively, the domestic interested parties), within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).\4\ The domestic
interested parties claimed interested party status under section
771(9)(c) of the Act, as U.S. manufacturers of light-walled pipe and
tube. On May 1, 2013, the Department received adequate substantive
responses from the domestic interested parties within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).\5\ The Department
received no responses from producers or exporters of light-walled pipe
and tube from any of the countries subject to these sunset reviews.
While the Department received general comments from the Government of
Turkey (GOT) concerning the Turkish market for, and the production and
exportation of, light-walled pipe and tube products, the Department
previously had informed the GOT that such comments, while permitted,
would not constitute substantive responses from Turkish producers,
because these sunset reviews concern the antidumping duty order (and
not a countervailing duty order under 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B)).\6\
