DATES: Effective Date: July 10, 2014. SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) has suspended the antidumping duty investigation on certain oil country tubular goods (‘‘OCTG’’) from Ukraine. The basis for this action is an agreement between the Department and Interpipe, the OCTG producer/exporter accounting for substantially all imports of OCTG from Ukraine, wherein Interpipe agrees to make any necessary price revisions to eliminate completely any amount by which the normal value (‘‘NV’’) of this merchandise exceeds the U.S. price of its merchandise subject to the agreement. sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 23:20 Jul 17, 2014 Jkt 232001 Sally Craig Gannon or Judith Wey Rudman at (202) 482–0162 or (202) 482– 0192, respectively; Bilateral Agreements Unit, Office of Policy, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street & Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC, 20230. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On July 22, 2013, the Department initiated an antidumping duty investigation under section 732 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’) to determine whether imports of OCTG from Ukraine are being, or are likely to be, sold in the United States at less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’). See Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods from India, the Republic of Korea, the Republic of the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Thailand, the Republic of Turkey, Ukraine, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigations, 78 FR 45505 (July 29, 2013). On August 16, 2013, the United States International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) notified the Department of its affirmative preliminary injury determination in this case. See Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods From India, Korea, The Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam, Inv. Nos. 701–TA–499–500 and 731–TA–1215–1223 (Preliminary) USITC Pub. No. 4422, 78 FR 52213 (August 22, 2013). On February 14, 2014, the Department preliminarily determined that OCTG is being, or is likely to be, sold in the United States at LTFV, as provided in section 733 of the Act. On this same date, the Department also preliminarily determined that there is not a reasonable basis to believe or suspect that critical circumstances exist with respect to OCTG from Ukraine and postponed the final determination in this investigation until no later than July 10, 2014. See Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods From Ukraine: Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, Negative Preliminary Determination of Critical Circumstances, and Postponement of Final Determination, 79 FR 10482 (February 25, 2014) (‘‘Preliminary Determination’’). The Department and a representative of Interpipe initialed a proposed agreement suspending this investigation on June 10, 2014. On June 10, 2014, we invited interested parties to provide written comments on the proposed suspension agreement by no later than the close of business on June 17, 2014. PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 41959 In response to our request for comments, we received comments from Interpipe and from petitioners in this proceeding (i.e., Maverick Tube Corporation; United States Steel Corporation; Boomerang Tube LLC; EnergeX, division of JMC Steel Group; Northwest Pipe Company; Tejas Tubular Products, Inc.; TMK IPSCO; Welded Tube USA, Inc.; Wheatland Tube Company; and Vallourec Star L.P. (collectively, ‘‘petitioners’’)) on June 17, 2014. We have taken these comments into consideration for the final version of the suspension agreement. The Department and a representative of Interpipe signed the final suspension agreement on July 10, 2014. See Agreement Suspending the Antidumping Duty Investigation on Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods from Ukraine, signed on July 10, 2014 (‘‘Suspension Agreement’’), attached hereto in Annex I. Pursuant to section 734(g) of the Act, the investigation was continued based upon requests by Interpipe and petitioners. If the ITC’s final injury determination is negative, the Suspension Agreement will have no force or effect and the investigation will be terminated, pursuant to section 734(f)(3)(A) of the Act. Scope of Investigation For a complete description of the scope of the Suspension Agreement, see Suspension Agreement, at Appendix A. Suspension of Investigation The Department consulted with the parties to the proceeding and, in accordance with section 734(b) of the Act, we have determined that the Suspension Agreement covers substantially all imports of the subject merchandise and will eliminate completely sales at LTFV of imported subject merchandise. Moreover, in accordance with section 734(d) of the Act, we find that the Suspension Agreement is in the public interest, and that the Suspension Agreement can be monitored effectively. See Percentage of Exports Memorandum and Public Interest and Effective Monitoring Assessment Memorandum, both dated July 10, 2014. We find, therefore, that the criteria for suspension of an investigation pursuant to sections 734(b) and (d) of the Act have been met. The terms and conditions of this Suspension Agreement, signed July 10, 2014, are set forth in Annex I to this notice. Pursuant to section 734(f)(2)(A) of the Act, the suspension of liquidation of all entries of OCTG from Ukraine entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, as directed in the Preliminary Determination, is hereby E:\FR\FM\18JYN1.SGM 18JYN1
