The Department intends to issue the

notice, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h),
unless this deadline is extended.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department shall determine, and CBP
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.9 Silcotub reported the names of
the importers of record and the entered
value for all of its sales to the United
States during the POR. If Silcotub’s
weighted-average dumping margins are
not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than
0.50 percent) in the final results of this
review, we will calculate importerspecific assessment rates on the basis of
3 See

the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of those
sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), and we will instruct CBP
to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review. Where either the respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
In accordance with the Department’s
‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, for
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR produced by Silcotub for which
it did not know its merchandise was
destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate.10
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after the publication date
of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of the
notice of final results of administrative
review for all shipments of small
diameter seamless pipe from Romania
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of
publication as provided by section
751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit
rate for Silcotub will be equal to the
weighted-average dumping margin
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 prior segment of the
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate
published for the most recentlycompleted 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 13.06 percent, the allothers rate established in the Order.
These cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.

The Department intends to issue the final results of this
administrative review, including the results of its analysis of the
issues raised in any written briefs, no later than 120 days after the
date of publication of this notice, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h), unless this deadline is extended.
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the Department shall determine,
and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries
covered by this review.\9\ Silcotub reported the names of the importers
of record and the entered value for all of its sales to the United
States during the POR. If Silcotub's weighted-average dumping margins
are not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent) in the final
results of this review, we will calculate importer-specific 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 sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), and we
will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review. Where either the respondent's weighted-
average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with the Department's ``automatic assessment''
practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by
Silcotub for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at
the all-others rate.\10\

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of
Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after the
publication date of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the notice of final results of administrative review for
all shipments of small diameter seamless pipe from Romania entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of
publication as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash
deposit rate for Silcotub will be equal to the weighted-average dumping
margin 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 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 13.06 percent, the
all-others rate established in the Order. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
[[Page 26454]]
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during
this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could
result in the Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping
duties.
We are issuing and publishing 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)(4).
Dated: June 1, 2017.
Ronald K. Lorentzen,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
