the Republic of Korea (Korea) to correct
a ministerial error.1 The period of

Section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), and 19
CFR 351.224(f) define a ‘‘ministerial
error’’ as an error ‘‘in addition,
subtraction, or other arithmetic
function, clerical error resulting from
inaccurate copying, duplication, or the
like, and any similar type of
unintentional error which the Secretary
considers ministerial.’’ We analyzed the
ministerial error allegation and
determined, in accordance with section
751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e),
that we made a ministerial error in our
calculation of HYSCO’s margin for the
Final Results by inadvertently excluding
from the comparison market program
certain of HYSCO’s home market sales
observations.
In accordance with section 751(h) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are
amending the Final Results with respect

detailed below.
Amended Final Results
As a result of correcting this
ministerial error, we determine that the
following weighted-average dumping
margin exists for the period November

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) and
(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
the Department has determined, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties
on all appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review. The
Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the
date of publication of these amended
final results of review.
For assessment purposes, HYSCO
reported the name of the importer of
record and the entered value for all of
their sales to the United States during
the period of review (POR).
Accordingly, we calculated importerspecific ad valorem antidumping duty
assessment rates 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
same sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1). Where an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we
will instruct CBP to liquidate the
appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties in accordance with
19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by HYSCO for
which it did not know were destined for
the United States, we will instruct CBP
to liquidate unreviewed entries at the
all-others rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company or companies
involved in the transaction. For a full
discussion of this clarification, see
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May

Background
On June 5, 2015, the Department disclosed to interested parties its
calculations for the Final Results.\2\ On June 10, 2015, we received a
timely ministerial error allegation from domestic interested parties
(Allied Tube & Conduit and TMK IPSCO) regarding the Department's margin

Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order is circular welded non-alloy
steel pipe and tube. The product is currently classified under the
following Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
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 HTSUS numbers are provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written product description remains dispositive.\4\

Ministerial Error
Section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''),
and 19 CFR 351.224(f) define a ``ministerial error'' as an error ``in
addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical error
resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any
similar type of unintentional error which the Secretary considers
ministerial.'' We analyzed the ministerial error allegation and
determined, in accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.224(e), that we made a ministerial error in our calculation of
HYSCO's margin for the Final Results by inadvertently excluding from
the comparison market program certain of HYSCO's home market sales
observations.
In accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e),
we are amending the Final Results with respect to HYSCO.\5\ The revised
weighted-average dumping margin for HYSCO is detailed below.

Analyst, to James Maeder, Senior Director, Office I, ``Ministerial
Error Allegation in the 2012-2013 Administrative Review of the

Republic of Korea.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amended Final Results
As a result of correcting this ministerial error, we determine that
the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period
November 1, 2012, through October 31, 2013:

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) and (C) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), the Department has determined, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final
results of this review. The Department intends to issue assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these
amended final results of review.
For assessment purposes, HYSCO reported the name of the importer of
record and the entered value for all of their sales to the United
States during the period of review (POR). Accordingly, we calculated
importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates 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 same
sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Where an importer-
specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5
percent), we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties in accordance with 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2).
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by HYSCO
for which it did not know were destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if
there is no rate for the intermediate company or companies involved in
the transaction. For a full discussion of this clarification, see

for HYSCO will be equal to the respective weighted-average dumping
margin established in the final results of this review; (2) for
merchandise exported by manufacturers or exporters not covered in this
review but covered in a prior segment of the proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published
for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding in which
that manufacturer or exporter participated; (3) if the exporter is not
a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original
investigation but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate established for the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding for the manufacturer of subject merchandise; and (4) the
