Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On May 13, 2016, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the notice of
initiation and preliminary results of the
changed circumstances review of the
antidumping duty order on circular
welded non-alloy steel pipe (CWP) from
the Republic of Korea.1 In that notice,
we preliminarily determined that
Hyundai Steel Corporation (Hyundai
Steel) is the successor-in-interest to
Hyundai HYSCO (HYSCO) for purposes
of determining antidumping duty cash
deposits and liabilities. No interested
party submitted comments on, or
requested a public hearing to discuss,
the initiation and preliminary results.
For these final results, the Department
continues to find that Hyundai Steel is
the successor-in-interest to HYSCO.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On February 24, 2016, Hyundai Steel

and requested that the Department
conduct an expedited changed
circumstances review under section
751(b) of the Act, 19 CFR 351.216(c),
and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii), to confirm
that Hyundai Steel is the successor-ininterest to HYSCO for purposes of
determining antidumping duty cash
deposits and liabilities. On May 13,
2016, the Department initiated this
changed circumstances review and
published the notice of preliminary
results, determining that Hyundai Steel
is the successor-in-interest to HYSCO.

Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order
is circular welded non-alloy steel pipe
and tube, of circular cross-section, not
more than 406.4 millimeters (16 inches)
in outside diameter, regardless of wall
thickness, surface finish (black,
galvanized, or painted), or end finish
(plain end, beveled end, threaded, or
threaded and coupled). These pipes and
tubes are generally known as standard
pipes and tubes and are intended for the
low-pressure conveyance of water,
steam, natural gas, air, and other liquids
and gases in plumbing and heating
systems, air-conditioning units,
automatic sprinkler systems, and other
related uses. Standard pipe may also be
used for light load-bearing applications,
such as for fence tubing, and as
structural pipe tubing used for framing
and as support members for
reconstruction or load-bearing purposes
in the construction, shipbuilding,
trucking, farm equipment, and other
related industries. Unfinished conduit
pipe is also included in the order.
All carbon-steel pipes and tubes
within the physical description outlined
above are included within the scope of
the order except line pipe, oil-country
tubular goods, boiler tubing, mechanical
tubing, pipe and tube hollows for
redraws, finished scaffolding, and
finished conduit.2
Imports of these products are
currently classifiable under the
following Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTSUS) numbers:
7306.30.1000, 7306.30.5025,

certified to the API 5L line-pipe specification and
pipe certified to both the API 5L line-pipe
specifications and the less-stringent ASTM A-53
standard-pipe specifications, which falls within the
physical parameters as outlined above, and entered

Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Review
For the reasons stated in the Initiation
and Preliminary Results, and because
we received no comments from
interested parties, the Department finds
that Hyundai Steel is the successor-ininterest to HYSCO. As a result of this
determination, we find that Hyundai
Steel should receive the cash deposit
rate assigned to HYSCO in the most
recently completed review of the
antidumping duty order on CWP from
Korea.3 Consequently, the Department
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to suspend liquidation of all
shipments of subject merchandise
produced or exported by Hyundai Steel
and entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication date of this notice in the
Federal Register at 1.62 percent, which
is the current antidumping duty cashdeposit rate for HYSCO. This cash
deposit requirement shall remain in
effect until further notice.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
International Trade Administration
The United States Department
of Commerce, International Trade
Administration, is organizing an
executive-led Healthcare Business
Development Mission to China with an
emphasis on the Sector. The mission is
proposed at the Deputy Secretary level
with participation from U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services to ensure
adequate access to Chinese government
officials.
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The purpose of the mission is open
access to Chinese government health
officials and to introduce U.S. firms and
trade associations to the Chinese
Healthcare market as well as assist U.S.
companies to find business partners and
export their products and services to
China. The mission is intended to
include representatives from U.S.
companies and U.S. trade associations
with members that provide high end,
innovative medical devices (especially
imaging), healthcare technology
equipment, innovative pharmaceuticals,
hospital management or senior care
management solutions, and medical
education or training, hospital
cooperation (i.e. management and
education), as well as pharmaceuticals
and senior care segments.
Healthcare is an important issue for
both the China. Today, China’s annual
healthcare spending is about $590.2
billion or 5.7% of its GDP. Commerce
and health are not mutually exclusive,
as workers become ill and as the cost of
healthcare and insurance increases there
is a direct impact on business through
the loss of worker productivity and
skilled workers, and reduced output.
With fewer healthy workers earning
incomes, businesses will also be harmed
by decreased size and purchasing power
of consumers. Families and individuals
will be burdened with the impact of
reduced incomes, increased health
costs, and increased likelihood of long
term care. As the world’s two largest
economies, how the two sides approach
healthcare in the future has the
potential to impact global macroeconomic stability and future economic
growth.
In recent years China has prioritized
the reform of its healthcare system, to
ensure citizens have good quality and
affordable care, especially given the
trends in the population and the
increase in various health issues. The
aging population, chronic disease and
lack of fitness for children create
challenges and burdens on establishing
an effective healthcare system.
Incidence of non-communicable disease
(NCDs) such as cardiovascular disease,
cancer and diabetes has rapidly
increased. Economic growth is also
impeded because NCDs hit workers in
their prime years of productivity—
creating long term chronic conditions,
withdrawal from the workforce,
diminished family resources and early
death. Tackling the prevalence and
significance of NCDs is challenging. The
causes are rooted in the universal trends
of aging and rapid urbanization,
demographic factors which will only
increase in the future.
