Background
This review covers three producers/
exporters of the subject merchandise,
Golden Dragon,1 Nacobre, and IUSA. On
December 12, 2016, the Department
published in the Federal Register the
preliminary results of administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on seamless refined copper pipe and
tube from Mexico.2
1 The Department previously treated GD Affiliates
S. de R.L. de C.V. as part of a single entity
including: (1) GD Copper Cooperatief U.A.; (2) Hong
Kong GD Trading Co. Ltd.; (3) Golden Dragon
Holding (Hong Kong) International, Ltd.; (4) GD
Copper U.S.A. Inc.; (5) GD Affiliates Servicios S. de
R.L. de C.V.; and (6) GD Affiliates S. de R.L. de C.V.,
which is collectively referred to as Golden Dragon.

We invited parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results. No interested party
submitted comments. As a result, the
final results do not differ from the
Preliminary Results. We continue to
find that sales of subject merchandise by
Golden Dragon and Nacobre were made
at prices less than normal value during
the POR. We continue to find that IUSA
had no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR. The
Department conducted this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order 3
The merchandise subject to the order
is seamless refined copper pipe and
tube. The product is currently classified
under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTSUS)
subheadings 7411.10.1030 and
7411.10.1090, and also may enter under
HTSUS subheadings 7407.10.1500,
7419.99.5050, 8415.90.8065, and
8415.90.8085. Although the HTSUS
numbers are provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written
product description, available in the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum,4
remains dispositive.
Final Determination of No Shipments
As noted in the Preliminary Results,
the Department received a claim of no
shipments from IUSA. Based on the
results of our U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) data query to
determine whether there were any
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR from IUSA, for the final results,
the Department continues to find that
IUSA did not have any reviewable
entries during the POR.5
Final Results of the Review
The Department determines that the
following weighted-average dumping
margins exist for entries of subject
merchandise that were produced and/or
exported by the following companies
during the POR:

Memorandum.

Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance
with the final results of this review.\6\ We intend to instruct CBP to
liquidate entries of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by
the aforementioned companies. In accordance with the Department's
``automatic assessment'' practice, for entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Golden Dragon or Nacobre for which they did
not know their merchandise was destined for the United States, we
intend to instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-
others rate.\7\ Additionally, because the Department determined that
IUSA had no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR, any
suspended entries that entered under IUSA's AD case number (i.e., at
that exporter's rate) will be liquidated at the all-others rate
effective during the period of review.\8\

The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 41

pursuant to 19 CFR 356.8(a).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of these final results for all shipments of
seamless refined copper pipe and tube from Mexico entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date as
provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for
the reviewed companies will be the rates established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by
manufacturers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a
completed prior segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most
recently completed segment; (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 for the manufacturer of the
merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or
exporters will continue to be 26.03 percent, the all-others rate
established in the Amended Final and Order. These cash 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)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties has occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), this notice also serves as
a reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO)
of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of
proprietary information disclosed under the APO, which continues to
govern business proprietary information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of
APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO
is a violation subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We intend to issue and publish these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and
351.221(b)(5).
