To determine whether this duty assessment rate is de minimis, in accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will calculate an importer-specific ad valorem ratio based on the estimated entered value. We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final results of this review is above de minimis. Where either Koehler’s weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or the importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.6 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 Koehler for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.

(Borusan).3 On August 6, 2013, we received rebuttal briefs from Wheatland and Borusan. The Department has conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to the order is welded pipe and tube. The welded pipe and tube subject to the order is currently classifiable under subheading 7306.30.1000, 7306.30.5025, 7306.30.5032, 7306.30.5040, 7306.30.5055, 7306.30.5085, and 7306.30.5090 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). The HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes. The written description is dispositive. A full written description of the scope of the order is contained in the memorandum from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, ‘‘Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Welded Carbon Steel Standard Pipe and Tube Products from Turkey; 2012–2013’’ (Issues and Decision Memorandum), which is hereby adopted by this notice and incorporated herein by reference.

Final Determination of No Shipments In the Preliminary Results, the Department preliminarily determined the following companies had no shipments during the POR: the Borusan Group, Borusan Holding A.S., Cayirova Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., ERBOSAN Erciyas Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., Guven Celik Boru San. ve Tic.

As a consequence, and because the record contains no evidence to the contrary, we continue to find that none of these companies made shipments during the POR. Accordingly, consistent with the Department’s practice, we intend to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate any existing entries of merchandise produced by these companies, but exported by other parties, at the allothers rate.5 Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case briefs by parties are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues which parties raised and to which we respond in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as an Appendix. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and our analysis of the comments received from interested parties on the 4 See Preliminary Results, 79 FR at 35999 and the accompanying PDM at 3–4. 5 See, e.g., Magnesium Metal From the Russian Federation: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 26922, 26923 (May 13, 2010) (Magnesium Metal), unchanged in Magnesium Metal From the Russian Federation: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 56989 (September 17, 2010). PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Preliminary Results, we have made no changes to the margin calculations.6 Final Results of the Review As a result of this review, we determine that the following weightedaverage dumping margins exist for the period May 1, 2012, through April 30, 2013: Manufacturer/exporter Borusan Mannesmann Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S.7 Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S.8 Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) 1.28 0.00 Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed within five days of the date of publication of this notice to parties in this proceeding in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). Assessment Rates The Department shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review in the Federal Register. For Borusan, because its weightedaverage dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the Department has calculated importerspecific antidumping duty assessment rates. We calculated importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates by aggregating the total amount of dumping calculated for the examined sales of each importer and dividing each of these amounts by the total entered value associated with those sales. We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review where an importer-specific assessment rate is not zero or de minimis. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to liquidate without regard to antidumping duties any entries for which the importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis. For Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. (Toscelik), we will instruct CBP to 6 See the Issues and Decision Memorandum. footnote 3. 8 As explained in the Preliminary Results, the Department treats Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. and Tosyali Dis Ticaret A.S. as the same legal entity. See Preliminary Results, 79 FR at 35999 & n.3. However, the Department no longer includes Toscelik Metal Ticaret A.S. as part of this entity because it ceased to exist prior to the POR. Id. 7 See E:\FR\FM\01DEN1.SGM 01DEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 230 / Monday, December 1, 2014 / Notices liquidate its entries during the POR imported by the importer identified in its questionnaire responses without regard to antidumping duties because its weighted-average dumping margin in these final results is zero.9 The Department clarified its ‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on May 6, 2003.10 This clarification applies to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by companies included in these final results of review for which the reviewed companies did not know that the merchandise they sold to an intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate established in the less-thanfair-value (LTFV) investigation 11 if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.12 For the companies identified above as having had no shipments, because the Department has determined that each of these companies had no shipments during the POR for which they had knowledge, all entries entered under each of their cash deposit rates will be liquidated at the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.13 Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates for Borusan and Toscelik will be equal to the weightedaverage dumping margins established in the final results of this review; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate established from a completed segment of this proceeding for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 9 See Antidumping Proceeding: Calculation of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8103 (February 14, 2012). 10 See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003) (Assessment Policy Notice). 11 See Antidumping Duty Order; Welded Carbon Steel Standard Pipe and Tube Products From Turkey, 51 FR 17784, 17784 (May 15, 1986) (Order). 12 See Assessment Policy Notice for a full discussion of this clarification. 13 See Magnesium Metal, 75 FR at 26923; Assessment Policy Notice, 68 FR 23954; see also Order, 51 FR at 17784.

Final Determination of No Shipments

    In the Preliminary Results, the Department preliminarily determined 
the following companies had no shipments during the POR: the Borusan 
Group, Borusan Holding A.S., Cayirova Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., 
ERBOSAN Erciyas Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., Guven Celik Boru San. ve

    \8\ As explained in the Preliminary Results, the Department 
treats Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. and Tosyali Dis 
Ticaret A.S. as the same legal entity. See Preliminary Results, 79 
FR at 35999 & n.3. However, the Department no longer includes 
Toscelik Metal Ticaret A.S. as part of this entity because it ceased 
to exist prior to the POR. Id.

Assessment Rates

    The Department shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review pursuant to 
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). The Department 
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date 
of publication of these final results of review in the Federal 
Register.
    For Borusan, because its weighted-average dumping margin is not 
zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the Department has 
calculated importer-specific antidumping duty assessment rates. We 
calculated importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment 
rates by aggregating the total amount of dumping calculated for the 
examined sales of each importer and dividing each of these amounts by 
the total entered value associated with those sales. We will instruct 
CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by 
this review where an importer-specific assessment rate is not zero or 
de minimis. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to 
liquidate without regard to antidumping duties any entries for which 
the importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis.
    For Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. (Toscelik), we will 
instruct CBP to

liquidate its entries during the POR imported by the importer 
identified in its questionnaire responses without regard to antidumping 
duties because its weighted-average dumping margin in these final 
results is zero.\9\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping

    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003.\10\ This clarification applies to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by companies included in these 
final results of review for which the reviewed companies did not know 
that the merchandise they sold to an intermediary (e.g., a reseller, 
trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States. In 
such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at 
the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) 
investigation \11\ if there is no rate for the intermediate 
company(ies) involved in the transaction.\12\

clarification.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the companies identified above as having had no shipments, 
because the Department has determined that each of these companies had 
no shipments during the POR for which they had knowledge, all entries 
entered under each of their cash deposit rates will be liquidated at 
the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.\13\

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results 
of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 
the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates for Borusan and Toscelik will be 
equal to the weighted-average dumping margins established in the final 
results of this review; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated 
companies not participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the company-specific rate established from a completed 
segment of this proceeding for the most recent period; (3) if the 
exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a previous review, or 
the original LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash 
deposit rate will be the rate established from a completed segment of 
this proceeding for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the 
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers 
or exporters will continue to be 14.74 percent, the all-others rate 
established in the LTFV investigation.\14\ These deposit requirements, 
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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.

Notifications to Interested Parties

    In accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), this notice serves as the 
only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order 
(APO) of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary 
information disclosed under APO. Timely written notification of return 
or destruction of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective 
order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and 
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
    These final results of review and notice are published in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: November 21, 2014.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
