SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) determines that certain
cold-rolled steel flat products (coldrolled steel) from the People’s Republic
of China (the PRC) are being, or are
likely to be, sold in the United States at
less than fair value (LTFV), as provided
in section 735 of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act). The period of
investigation is January 1, 2015, through
June 30, 2015. The estimated weightedaverage dumping margin of sales at
LTFV is shown in the ‘‘Final
Determination’’ section of this notice.
DATES: Effective Date: May 24, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On March 7, 2016, the Department
published its preliminary affirmative
determination of sales at LTFV and
preliminary affirmative determination of
critical circumstance in LTFV
investigation of cold-rolled steel from
the PRC.1 We invited interested parties
to comment on our preliminary
determinations. We only received
comments regarding the scope of this

Scope of the Investigation
The products covered by this
investigation are certain cold-rolled
(cold-reduced), flat-rolled steel
products, whether or not annealed,
painted, varnished, or coated with
plastics or other non-metallic
substances from the PRC. For a full
description of the scope of this
investigation, see the ‘‘Scope of the
Investigation,’’ in Appendix I.
Since the Preliminary Determination,
eight interested parties (i.e., JFE Steel
Corporation, Electrolux Home Products,
Inc., Electrolux Home Care Products,
Inc., ArcelorMittal USA LLC, AK Steel
Corporation, Nucor Corporation, Steel
Dynamics Inc., and .United States Steel
Corporation) commented on the scope
of the investigation. The Department
reviewed these comments and has made
no changes to the scope of the
investigation. For further discussion, see
the Final Scope Comments
Memorandum.2 The scope in Appendix
I reflects the final unmodified scope
language as it appeared in the
Preliminary Determination.
Verification
The only respondent in the
antidumping investigation of cold-rolled
steel from the PRC, the PRC-wide entity,
did not provide information requested
by the Department. Hence, no
verification was conducted.
Analysis of Comments Received and
Changes Since the Preliminary
Determination
We made no changes to the
Preliminary Determination because we
received no comments pertaining to the
Preliminary Determination.
Final Affirmative Determination of
Critical Circumstances
In accordance with section 733(e)(1)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206, we
preliminarily found critical
circumstances exist with respect to
imports of certain cold-rolled steel flat
products from the PRC-wide entity.3 As
stated above, the Department did not
receive any comments concerning the
preliminary determination. Thus, for the

final determination, we continue to find
that, in accordance with section
735(a)(3) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206,
critical circumstances exist with respect
to the PRC-wide entity.
Use of Adverse Facts Available
As stated in the Preliminary
Determination, the PRC-wide entity
failed to cooperate to the best of its
ability.4 Accordingly, pursuant to
sections 776(a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) and
section 776(b) of the Act, we find it
appropriate to assign the estimated
weighted-average dumping margin in
the table below, which is based on total
adverse facts available.5
Combination Rates
the
In the Initiation
Department stated that it would
calculate combination rates for PRC
respondents that are eligible for separate
rate in this investigation. This practice
is described in Policy Bulletin 05.1,
available at https://
enforcement.trade.gov/policy/
index.html. Because the Department has
not granted a separate rate to any PRC
respondent, the Department has not
calculated combination rates for any
PRC respondents.
Notice,6
Final Determination
As stated above, we made no changes
to our affirmative preliminary LTFV
determination; therefore, we continue to
determine the following estimated
weighted-average dumping margin
exists for the PRC wide-entity during
the period January 1, 2015, through June

In accordance with section

determination, we will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
continue to suspend liquidation of all
entries of cold-rolled steel from the PRC

Determination, pursuant to section
733(e)(2) of the Act.
As we stated in the Preliminary
Determination, and consistent with our
practice, where the product under
investigation is also subject to a
concurrent countervailing duty
investigation, we will instruct CBP to
require a cash deposit equal to the
amount by which the normal value
exceeds the export price or constructed
export price, adjusted where
appropriate for export subsidies and
estimated domestic subsidy passthrough.7 With respect to the PRC-wide
entity, we find that an adjustment for
export subsidies of 66.03 percent 8 is
warranted because this is the
countervailing duty rate attributable to
export subsidies included in the
countervailing duty rate to which all
entries from the PRC-wide entity are
currently subject. We are not adjusting
the final determination for estimated
domestic subsidy pass-through because
we have no basis upon to make such an
adjustment. Thus, we will offset the
PRC-wide rate of 265.79 by the
countervailing duty rate attributable to
export subsidies (i.e., 66.03 percent) to
calculate the cash deposit ad valorem
rate for the PRC-wide entity of 199.76
percent.9 The suspension of liquidation

sections 772(c)(1)(C) and 777A(f) of the Act,
respectively. Unlike in administrative reviews, the
Department makes an adjustment for export
subsidies in an LTFV investigation not in the
calculation of the weighted-average dumping
margin, but in the cash deposit instructions issued
to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. See Notice

Value, and Negative Determination of Critical
Circumstances: Certain Lined Paper Products from
India, 71 FR 45012 (August 8, 2006), and

instructions will remain in effect until
further notice.
Disclosure
We described the calculations used to
determine the estimated weightedaverage dumping margins based on
adverse facts available, in the
Preliminary Determination. We made no
changes to our calculations since the
Preliminary Determination. Thus, no
additional disclosure of calculations is
necessary for this final determination.
International Trade Commission (ITC)
Notification
In accordance with section 735(d) of
the Act, we will notify the International
Trade Commission (ITC) of our final
affirmative determination of sales at
LTFV and final affirmative
determination of critical circumstances.
Because the final determination in this
proceeding is affirmative, in accordance
with section 735(b)(2) of the Act, the
ITC will make its final determination as
to whether the domestic industry in the
United States is materially injured, or
threatened with material injury, by
reason of imports of cold-rolled steel
from the PRC no later than 45 days after
our final determination. If the ITC
determines that such injury does not
exist, this proceeding will be terminated
and all securities posted will be
refunded or canceled. If the ITC
determines that such injury does exist,
the Department will issue an
antidumping duty order directing CBP
to assess, upon further instruction by
the Department, antidumping duties on
all imports of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the effective
date of the suspension of liquidation.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice will serve as a reminder
to the parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305. 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.
We are issuing and publishing this
determination in accordance with
sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.210(c).

Scope of the Investigation
The products covered by this investigation
are certain cold-rolled (cold-reduced), flatrolled steel products, whether or not
annealed, painted, varnished, or coated with
plastics or other non-metallic substances.
The products covered do not include those
that are clad, plated, or coated with metal.
The products covered include coils that have
a width or other lateral measurement
(‘‘width’’) of 12.7 mm or greater, regardless
of form of coil (e.g., in successively
superimposed layers, spirally oscillating,
etc.). The products covered also include
products not in coils (e.g., in straight lengths)
of a thickness less than 4.75 mm and a width
that is 12.7 mm or greater and that measures
at least 10 times the thickness. The products
covered also include products not in coils
(e.g., in straight lengths) of a thickness of 4.75
mm or more and a width exceeding 150 mm
and measuring at least twice the thickness.
The products described above may be
rectangular, square, circular, or other shape
and include products of either rectangular or
non-rectangular cross-section where such
cross-section is achieved subsequent to the
rolling process, i.e., products which have
been ‘‘worked after rolling’’ (e.g., products
which have been beveled or rounded at the
edges). For purposes of the width and
thickness requirements referenced above:
(1) Where the nominal and actual
measurements vary, a product is within the
scope if application of either the nominal or
actual measurement would place it within
the scope based on the definitions set forth
above, and
(2) where the width and thickness vary for
a specific product (e.g., the thickness of
certain products with non-rectangular crosssection, the width of certain products with
non-rectangular shape, etc.), the
measurement at its greatest width or
thickness applies.
Steel products included in the scope of this
investigation are products in which: (1) Iron
predominates, by weight, over each of the
other contained elements; (2) the carbon
content is 2 percent or less, by weight; and
(3) none of the elements listed below exceeds
the quantity, by weight, respectively
indicated:
• 2.50 percent of manganese, or
• 3.30 percent of silicon, or
• 1.50 percent of copper, or
• 1.50 percent of aluminum, or
• 1.25 percent of chromium, or
• 0.30 percent of cobalt, or
• 0.40 percent of lead, or
• 2.00 percent of nickel, or
• 0.30 percent of tungsten (also called
wolfram), or
• 0.80 percent of molybdenum, or
• 0.10 percent of niobium (also called
columbium), or
• 0.30 percent of vanadium, or
• 0.30 percent of zirconium

Unless specifically excluded, products are
included in this scope regardless of levels of
boron and titanium.
For example, specifically included in this
scope are vacuum degassed, fully stabilized
(commonly referred to as interstitial-free (IF))
steels, high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels,
motor lamination steels, Advanced High
Strength Steels (AHSS), and Ultra High
Strength Steels (UHSS). IF steels are
recognized as low carbon steels with microalloying levels of elements such as titanium
and/or niobium added to stabilize carbon and
nitrogen elements. HSLA steels are
recognized as steels with micro-alloying
levels of elements such as chromium, copper,
niobium, titanium, vanadium, and
molybdenum. Motor lamination steels
contain micro-alloying levels of elements
such as silicon and aluminum. AHSS and
UHSS are considered high tensile strength
and high elongation steels, although AHSS
and UHSS are covered whether or not they
are high tensile strength or high elongation
steels.
Subject merchandise includes cold-rolled
steel that has been further processed in a
third country, including but not limited to
annealing, tempering, painting, varnishing,
trimming, cutting, punching, and/or slitting,
or any other processing that would not
otherwise remove the merchandise from the
scope of the investigation if performed in the
country of manufacture of the cold-rolled
steel.
All products that meet the written physical
description, and in which the chemistry
quantities do not exceed any one of the noted
element levels listed above, are within the
scope of this investigation unless specifically
excluded. The following products are outside
of and/or specifically excluded from the
scope of this investigation:
· Ball bearing steels; 10
· Tool steels; 11
· Silico-manganese steel; 12

alloy steel products, whether or not in coils,
regardless of width, having an actual thickness of
0.20 mm or more, in which the core loss is
substantially equal in any direction of
magnetization in the plane of the material. The term
‘substantially equal’ means that the cross grain
direction of core loss is no more than 1.5 times the
straight grain direction (i.e., the rolling direction) of
core loss. NOES has a magnetic permeability that
does not exceed 1.65 Tesla when tested at a field
of 800 A/m (equivalent to 10 Oersteds) along (i.e.,
parallel to) the rolling direction of the sheet (i.e.,
B800 value). NOES contains by weight more than
1.00 percent of silicon but less than 3.5 percent of
silicon, not more than 0.08 percent of carbon, and
not more than 1.5 percent of aluminum. NOES has
a surface oxide coating, to which an insulation

Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products From the People's
Republic of China: Final Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less
Than Fair Value, and Final Affirmative Determination of Critical
Circumstances
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) determines that
certain cold-rolled steel flat products (cold-rolled steel) from the
People's Republic of China (the PRC) are being, or are likely to be,
sold in the United States at less than fair value (LTFV), as provided
in section 735 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The
period of investigation is January 1, 2015, through June 30, 2015. The
estimated weighted-average dumping margin of sales at LTFV is shown in
the ``Final Determination'' section of this notice.
DATES: Effective Date: May 24, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott Hoefke or Robert James, AD/CVD

or (202) 482-0679, respectively.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 7, 2016, the Department published its preliminary
affirmative determination of sales at LTFV and preliminary affirmative
determination of critical circumstance in LTFV investigation of cold-
rolled steel from the PRC.\1\ We invited interested parties to comment
on our preliminary determinations. We only received comments regarding
the scope of this investigation. No interested party requested a
hearing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Antidumping Duty Investigation of Certain Cold-Rolled
Steel Flat Products From the People's Republic of China: Affirmative
Preliminary Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, and
Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, 81
FR 11751 (March 7, 2016) (Preliminary Determination).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Investigation
The products covered by this investigation are certain cold-rolled
(cold-reduced), flat-rolled steel products, whether or not annealed,
painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or other non-metallic
substances from the PRC. For a full description of the scope of this
investigation, see the ``Scope of the Investigation,'' in Appendix I.
Since the Preliminary Determination, eight interested parties
(i.e., JFE Steel Corporation, Electrolux Home Products, Inc.,
Electrolux Home Care Products, Inc., ArcelorMittal USA LLC, AK Steel
Corporation, Nucor Corporation, Steel Dynamics Inc., and .United States
Steel Corporation) commented on the scope of the investigation. The
Department reviewed these comments and has made no changes to the scope
of the investigation. For further discussion, see the Final Scope
Comments Memorandum.\2\ The scope in Appendix I reflects the final
unmodified scope language as it appeared in the Preliminary
Determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ See Memorandum to Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant
Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations,
``Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products From Brazil, the People's
Republic of China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Russian
Federation, and the United Kingdom: Final Scope Comments Decision
Memorandum,'' dated concurrently with this final determination
(Final Scope Comments Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verification
The only respondent in the antidumping investigation of cold-rolled
steel from the PRC, the PRC-wide entity, did not provide information
requested by the Department. Hence, no verification was conducted.
Analysis of Comments Received and Changes Since the Preliminary
Determination
We made no changes to the Preliminary Determination because we
received no comments pertaining to the Preliminary Determination.
Final Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances
In accordance with section 733(e)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206,
we preliminarily found critical circumstances exist with respect to
imports of certain cold-rolled steel flat products from the PRC-wide
entity.\3\ As stated above, the Department did not receive any comments
concerning the preliminary determination. Thus, for the
[[Page 32726]]
final determination, we continue to find that, in accordance with
section 735(a)(3) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206, critical circumstances
exist with respect to the PRC-wide entity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Preliminary Determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use of Adverse Facts Available
As stated in the Preliminary Determination, the PRC-wide entity
failed to cooperate to the best of its ability.\4\ Accordingly,
pursuant to sections 776(a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) and section 776(b) of
the Act, we find it appropriate to assign the estimated weighted-
average dumping margin in the table below, which is based on total
adverse facts available.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Id., and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum at
9-13.
\5\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Combination Rates
In the Initiation Notice,\6\ the Department stated that it would
calculate combination rates for PRC respondents that are eligible for
separate rate in this investigation. This practice is described in
Policy Bulletin 05.1, available at https://enforcement.trade.gov/policy/. Because the Department has not granted a separate rate to
any PRC respondent, the Department has not calculated combination rates
for any PRC respondents.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ See Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Brazil, the
People's Republic of China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the
Netherlands, the Russian Federation, and the United Kingdom:
Initiation of Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigations, 80 FR 51198
(August 24, 2015) (Initiation Notice).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Determination
As stated above, we made no changes to our affirmative preliminary
LTFV determination; therefore, we continue to determine the following
estimated weighted-average dumping margin exists for the PRC wide-
entity during the period January 1, 2015, through June 30, 2015:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Company Dumping rate
------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRC-Wide Entity........................... 265.79 percent
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation
In accordance with section 735(c)(4)(A) of the Act, for the final
determination, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to continue to suspend liquidation of all entries of cold-rolled
steel from the PRC as described in the ``Scope of the Investigation''
section which were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption 90 days prior to the date of publication of the Preliminary
Determination, pursuant to section 733(e)(2) of the Act.
As we stated in the Preliminary Determination, and consistent with
our practice, where the product under investigation is also subject to
a concurrent countervailing duty investigation, we will instruct CBP to
require a cash deposit equal to the amount by which the normal value
exceeds the export price or constructed export price, adjusted where
appropriate for export subsidies and estimated domestic subsidy pass-
through.\7\ With respect to the PRC-wide entity, we find that an
adjustment for export subsidies of 66.03 percent \8\ is warranted
because this is the countervailing duty rate attributable to export
subsidies included in the countervailing duty rate to which all entries
from the PRC-wide entity are currently subject. We are not adjusting
the final determination for estimated domestic subsidy pass-through
because we have no basis upon to make such an adjustment. Thus, we will
offset the PRC-wide rate of 265.79 by the countervailing duty rate
attributable to export subsidies (i.e., 66.03 percent) to calculate the
cash deposit ad valorem rate for the PRC-wide entity of 199.76
percent.\9\ The suspension of liquidation instructions will remain in
effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See Preliminary Determination.
\8\ See sections 772(c)(1)(C) and 777A(f) of the Act,
respectively. Unlike in administrative reviews, the Department makes
an adjustment for export subsidies in an LTFV investigation not in
the calculation of the weighted-average dumping margin, but in the
cash deposit instructions issued to U.S. Customs and Border
Protection. See Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value, and Negative Determination of Critical Circumstances:
Certain Lined Paper Products from India, 71 FR 45012 (August 8,
2006), and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum at comment 1.
The following programs are export specific in the concurrent
countervailing duty investigation: Export Loans; Preferential
Lending to Cold-Rolled Steel Producers and Exporters Classified As
``Honorable Enterprises''; Preferential Income Tax Subsidies for
Foreign Invested Enterprises--Export Oriented FIEs; Programs to
Rebate Antidumping Legal Fees; Export Assistance Grants; Subsidies
for Development of Famous Export Brands and China World Top Brands;
Sub-Central Government Programs to Promote Famous Export Brands and
China World Top Brands; Export Interest Subsidies; Export Seller's
Credits; Export Buyer's Credits; Export Credit Insurance Subsidies;
Export Credit Guarantees''. See Countervailing Duty Investigation of
Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products From the People's Republic
of China: Final Affirmative Determination, Final Partial Affirmative
Critical Circumstances Determination, and accompanying Issues and
Decision Memorandum. The final determination in this companion CVD
proceeding is being released concurrently with this final
determination.
\9\ The cash deposit rate reflecting the export subsidy offset
will be in effect until the countervailing duty provisional measures
expire (i.e., 120 days after the publication of the preliminary
determination of companion countervailing duty investigation).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
We described the calculations used to determine the estimated
weighted-average dumping margins based on adverse facts available, in
the Preliminary Determination. We made no changes to our calculations
since the Preliminary Determination. Thus, no additional disclosure of
calculations is necessary for this final determination.
International Trade Commission (ITC) Notification
In accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, we will notify the
International Trade Commission (ITC) of our final affirmative
determination of sales at LTFV and final affirmative determination of
critical circumstances. Because the final determination in this
proceeding is affirmative, in accordance with section 735(b)(2) of the
Act, the ITC will make its final determination as to whether the
domestic industry in the United States is materially injured, or
threatened with material injury, by reason of imports of cold-rolled
steel from the PRC no later than 45 days after our final determination.
If the ITC determines that such injury does not exist, this proceeding
will be terminated and all securities posted will be refunded or
canceled. If the ITC determines that such injury does exist, the
Department will issue an antidumping duty order directing CBP to
assess, upon further instruction by the Department, antidumping duties
on all imports of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the effective date of the
suspension of liquidation.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice will serve as a reminder to the parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. 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.
We are issuing and publishing this determination in accordance with
sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(c).

Appendix I
Scope of the Investigation
The products covered by this investigation are certain cold-
rolled (cold-reduced), flat-rolled steel products, whether or not
annealed, painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or other non-
metallic substances. The products covered do not include those that
are clad, plated, or coated with metal. The products covered include
coils that have a width or other lateral measurement (``width'') of
12.7 mm or greater, regardless of form of coil (e.g., in
successively superimposed layers, spirally oscillating, etc.). The
products covered also include products not in coils (e.g., in
straight lengths) of a thickness less than 4.75 mm and a width that
is 12.7 mm or greater and that measures at least 10 times the
thickness. The products covered also include products not in coils
(e.g., in straight lengths) of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more and a
width exceeding 150 mm and measuring at least twice the thickness.
The products described above may be rectangular, square, circular,
or other shape and include products of either rectangular or non-
rectangular cross-section where such cross-section is achieved
subsequent to the rolling process, i.e., products which have been
``worked after rolling'' (e.g., products which have been beveled or
rounded at the edges). For purposes of the width and thickness
requirements referenced above:
(1) Where the nominal and actual measurements vary, a product is
within the scope if application of either the nominal or actual
measurement would place it within the scope based on the definitions
set forth above, and
(2) where the width and thickness vary for a specific product
(e.g., the thickness of certain products with non-rectangular cross-
section, the width of certain products with non-rectangular shape,
etc.), the measurement at its greatest width or thickness applies.
Steel products included in the scope of this investigation are
products in which: (1) Iron predominates, by weight, over each of
the other contained elements; (2) the carbon content is 2 percent or
less, by weight; and (3) none of the elements listed below exceeds
the quantity, by weight, respectively indicated:
2.50 percent of manganese, or
3.30 percent of silicon, or
1.50 percent of copper, or
1.50 percent of aluminum, or
1.25 percent of chromium, or
0.30 percent of cobalt, or
0.40 percent of lead, or
2.00 percent of nickel, or
0.30 percent of tungsten (also called wolfram), or
0.80 percent of molybdenum, or
0.10 percent of niobium (also called columbium), or
0.30 percent of vanadium, or
0.30 percent of zirconium
Unless specifically excluded, products are included in this
scope regardless of levels of boron and titanium.
For example, specifically included in this scope are vacuum
degassed, fully stabilized (commonly referred to as interstitial-
free (IF)) steels, high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels, motor
lamination steels, Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS), and Ultra
High Strength Steels (UHSS). IF steels are recognized as low carbon
steels with micro-alloying levels of elements such as titanium and/
or niobium added to stabilize carbon and nitrogen elements. HSLA
steels are recognized as steels with micro-alloying levels of
elements such as chromium, copper, niobium, titanium, vanadium, and
molybdenum. Motor lamination steels contain micro-alloying levels of
elements such as silicon and aluminum. AHSS and UHSS are considered
high tensile strength and high elongation steels, although AHSS and
UHSS are covered whether or not they are high tensile strength or
high elongation steels.
Subject merchandise includes cold-rolled steel that has been
further processed in a third country, including but not limited to
annealing, tempering, painting, varnishing, trimming, cutting,
punching, and/or slitting, or any other processing that would not
otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of the investigation
if performed in the country of manufacture of the cold-rolled steel.
All products that meet the written physical description, and in
which the chemistry quantities do not exceed any one of the noted
element levels listed above, are within the scope of this
investigation unless specifically excluded. The following products
are outside of and/or specifically excluded from the scope of this
investigation:

weight: (i) Not more than 0.7 percent of carbon; (ii) 0.5 percent or
more but not more than 1.9 percent of manganese, and (iii) 0.6
percent or more but not more than 2.3 percent of silicon.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[middot] Grain-oriented electrical steels (GOES) as defined in
the final determination of the U.S. Department of Commerce in Grain-
Oriented Electrical Steel From Germany, Japan, and Poland.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ See Grain-Oriented Electrical Steel From Germany, Japan,
and Poland: Final Determinations of Sales at Less Than Fair Value
and Certain Final Affirmative Determination of Critical
Circumstances, 79 FR 42,501, 42,503 (Dep't of Commerce, July 22,
2014). This determination defines grain-oriented electrical steel as
``a flat-rolled alloy steel product containing by weight at least
0.6 percent but not more than 6 percent of silicon, not more than
0.08 percent of carbon, not more than 1.0 percent of aluminum, and
no other element in an amount that would give the steel the
characteristics of another alloy steel, in coils or in straight
lengths.''

[middot] Non-Oriented Electrical Steels (NOES), as defined in
the antidumping orders issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce in
Non-Oriented Electrical Steel From the People's Republic of China,
Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Sweden, and Taiwan.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ See Non-Oriented Electrical Steel From the People's
Republic of China, Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Sweden,
and Taiwan: Antidumping Duty Orders, 79 FR 71,741, 71,741-42 (Dep't
of Commerce, December 3, 2014). The orders define NOES as ``cold-
rolled, flat-rolled, alloy steel products, whether or not in coils,
regardless of width, having an actual thickness of 0.20 mm or more,
in which the core loss is substantially equal in any direction of
magnetization in the plane of the material. The term `substantially
equal' means that the cross grain direction of core loss is no more
than 1.5 times the straight grain direction (i.e., the rolling
direction) of core loss. NOES has a magnetic permeability that does
not exceed 1.65 Tesla when tested at a field of 800 A/m (equivalent
to 10 Oersteds) along (i.e., parallel to) the rolling direction of
the sheet (i.e., B800 value). NOES contains by weight more than 1.00
percent of silicon but less than 3.5 percent of silicon, not more
than 0.08 percent of carbon, and not more than 1.5 percent of
aluminum. NOES has a surface oxide coating, to which an insulation
coating may be applied.''
