objectives are to: (1) Increase water
supply reliability and system
operational flexibility for agricultural,
municipal and industrial (M&I), and
environmental purposes in the Friant
Division, other San Joaquin Valley
areas, and other regions; and (2)
enhance water temperature and flow
conditions in the San Joaquin River
downstream from Friant Dam for
salmon and other fish. The secondary
objectives are to: (1) Reduce flood
damages downstream from Friant Dam;
(2) maintain the value of hydropower
attributes; (3) maintain and increase
recreational opportunities in the
primary study area; (4) improve San
Joaquin River water quality downstream
of Friant Dam; and (5) improve the
quality of water supplies delivered to
urban areas.
The primary study area encompasses
the San Joaquin River upstream from
Friant Dam (about 20 miles northeast of
Fresno) to Kerckhoff Dam, including
Millerton Lake and the area that would
be inundated by the proposed reservoir;
and areas that could be directly affected
by construction-related activities,
including the footprint of proposed
temporary and permanent facilities
upstream of Friant Dam. The Extended
Study Area includes the San Joaquin
River downstream from Friant Dam,
including the Delta; lands served by San
Joaquin River water rights; the Central
Valley Project (CVP); and south-of-Delta
water service areas of the CVP and State
Water Project, Sacramento River
watershed, the Delta, and the Central
Valley Project and State Water Project
service areas.

Certain Oil Country Tubular Goods
From India, Korea, the Philippines,
Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and

Determinations
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject investigations, the United
States International Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant
to sections 705(b) and 735(b) of the
Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b))
and (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)) (‘‘the Act’’),
that an industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports
of certain oil country tubular goods from
India, Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, and
Vietnam, provided for in subheadings
7304.29, 7305.20, and 7306.29 of the

governments of India and Turkey.2 The
Commission also determines, pursuant
to section 735(b) of the Act, that an
industry in the United States is
threatened with material injury by
reason of imports of certain oil country
tubular goods from Taiwan that have
been found by Commerce to be sold in
the United States at LTFV.3
The Commission further determines
that imports of these products from the
Philippines and Thailand are negligible
pursuant to section 771(24) of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 1677(24)), and its
investigations with regard to these
countries are thereby terminated
pursuant to section 735(b) of the Act.
Background
The Commission instituted these
investigations effective July 2, 2013,
following receipt of a petition filed with
the Commission and Commerce by
United States Steel Corporation,
Pittsburgh, PA; Maverick Tube
Corporation, Houston, TX; Boomerang
Tube LLC, Chesterfield, MO; Energex, a
division of JMC Steel Group, Chicago,
IL; Northwest Pipe Company,
Vancouver, WA; Tejas Tubular Products
Inc., Houston, TX; TMK IPSCO,
Houston, TX; Vallourec Star, L.P.,
Houston, TX; and Welded Tube USA,
Inc., Lackawanna, NY. The final phase
of the investigations was scheduled by
the Commission following notification
of preliminary determinations by
Commerce regarding the subsidization
of imports of certain oil country tubular
goods from India and Turkey within the
meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19
U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and sales at less than
fair value of imports of certain oil
country tubular goods from India,
Korea, the Philippines, Taiwan,
Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam
within the meaning of section 733(b) of
the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of
the scheduling of the final phase of the
Commission’s investigations and of a
public hearing to be held in connection
therewith was given by posting copies
of the notice in the Office of the
Secretary, U.S. International Trade
2 All five participating Commissioners voted in
the affirmative (Commissioner F. Scott Kieff did not
participate in these investigations). The
Commission also finds that imports subject to
Commerce’s affirmative critical circumstances
determinations are not likely to undermine
seriously the remedial effect of the countervailing
duty orders on certain oil country tubular goods
from India or Turkey. The Commission further finds
that imports subject to Commerce’s affirmative
critical circumstances determinations are not likely
to undermine seriously the remedial effect of the
antidumping duty orders on certain oil country
tubular goods from Turkey or Vietnam.
3 Chairman Meredith M. Broadbent dissenting
with regard to imports from Taiwan, determining
that subject imports from Taiwan are negligible.
