(iii) 1.00 percent of copper;
(iv) 0.50 percent of aluminum;
(v) 1.25 percent of chromium;
(vi) 0.30 percent of cobalt;
(vii) 0.40 percent of lead;
(viii) 1.25 percent of nickel;

(xi) 0.10 percent of niobium;
(xii) 0.41 percent of titanium;
(xiii) 0.15 percent of vanadium; or
(xiv) 0.15 percent of zirconium.
Covered products are generally made to
standard O.D. and wall thickness
combinations. Pipe multi-stenciled to a
standard and/or structural specification and
to other specifications, such as American
Petroleum Institute (API) API–5L
specification, may also be covered by the
scope of these investigations. In particular,
such multi-stenciled merchandise is covered
when it meets the physical description set
forth above, and also has one or more of the
following characteristics: Is 32 feet in length
or less; is less than 2.0 inches (50 mm) in
outside diameter; has a galvanized and/or
painted (e.g., polyester coated) surface finish;
or has a threaded and/or coupled end finish.
Standard pipe is ordinarily made to ASTM
specifications A53, A135, and A795, but can
also be made to other specifications.
Structural pipe is made primarily to ASTM
specifications A252 and A500. Standard and
structural pipe may also be produced to
proprietary specifications rather than to
industry specifications.
Sprinkler pipe is designed for sprinkler fire
suppression systems and may be made to
industry specifications such as ASTM A53 or
to proprietary specifications.
Fence tubing is included in the scope
regardless of certification to a specification
listed in the exclusions below, and can also
be made to the ASTM A513 specification.
Products that meet the physical description
set forth above but are made to the following
nominal outside diameter and wall thickness
combinations, which are recognized by the
industry as typical for fence tubing, are
included despite being certified to ASTM
mechanical tubing specifications:

The scope of this investigation does not
include:
(a) Pipe suitable for use in boilers,
superheaters, heat exchangers, refining
furnaces and feedwater heaters, whether or
not cold drawn, which are defined by
standards such as ASTM A178 or ASTM
A192;
(b) finished electrical conduit, i.e.,
Electrical Rigid Steel Conduit (also known as
Electrical Rigid Metal Conduit and Electrical
Rigid Metal Steel Conduit), Finished
Electrical Metallic Tubing, and Electrical
Intermediate Metal Conduit, which are
defined by specifications such as American
National Standard (ANSI) C80.1–2005, ANSI
C80.3–2005, or ANSI C80.6–2005, and
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) UL–6,
UL–797, or UL–1242;
(c) finished scaffolding, i.e., component
parts of final, finished scaffolding that enter
the United States unassembled as a ‘‘kit.’’ A
kit is understood to mean a packaged
combination of component parts that
contains, at the time of importation, all of the
necessary component parts to fully assemble
final, finished scaffolding;
(d) tube and pipe hollows for redrawing;
(e) oil country tubular goods produced to
API specifications;
(f) line pipe produced to only API
specifications, such as API 5L, and not multistenciled; and
(g) mechanical tubing, whether or not colddrawn, other than what is included in the

751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’).
Scope of the Order
The merchandise covered by this

Furfuryl alcohol is a primary alcohol,
and is colorless or pale yellow in
appearance. It is used in the
manufacture of resins and as a wetting
agent and solvent for coating resins,
nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate, and
other soluble dyes. The product subject
to this order is classifiable under
subheading 2932.13.00 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the
HTSUS subheading is provided for
convenience and customs purposes, our
written description of the scope is
dispositive.
Final Results of Review
As a result of our review, we
determine that the following dumping
margin on furfuryl alcohol from the PRC
exists for Qingdao WenKem Co., Ltd.,
determined to be a part of the PRC-wide
entity,5 for the period June 1, 2014,
through May 31, 2015:

consumption on or after the publication
date, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash
deposit rate for Qingdao WenKem Co.,

be the PRC-wide rate of 45.27 percent;
(2) for previously investigated or
reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters
who are not under review in this
segment of the proceeding but who have
separate rates, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the exporter-specific rate
published for the most recent period; (3)
for all PRC exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found
to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be the PRC-wide rate
of 45.27 percent; and (4) for all non-PRC

Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a final
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement off

reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
