Background
In accordance with sections 705(d)
and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act) and 19 CFR
351.210(c), on May 22, 2017, the
Department published its affirmative
final determination in the CVD
investigation of rebar from Turkey.1 As
discussed below, several interested
parties filed ministerial error comments
on the Final Determination,2 which the

Department addressed in a separate
memorandum.3 On June 30, 2017, the
ITC notified the Department of its final
determination pursuant to section
705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act that an
industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of
subsidized imports of rebar from
Turkey.4

On May 24, 2017, Habas Sinai ve

(Habas) and the Government of Turkey
(the GOT) alleged that the Department
made ministerial errors in the Final
Determination.5 The petitioner in this
proceeding, the Rebar Trade Action
Coalition and its individual members,6
subsequently filed comments on the
ministerial error allegations.7 A
ministerial error is defined as an error
in addition, subtraction, or other
arithmetic function, clerical error
resulting from inaccurate copying,
duplication, or the like, and any other
similar type of unintentional error
which the Department considers
ministerial.8
The Department reviewed the record
and agrees that certain errors identified
by Habas constitute ministerial errors
within the meaning of section 705(e) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(f).9
Therefore, pursuant to 19 CFR
(Habas Ministerial Error Allegations); see also Letter
from the GOT, ‘‘Request of Government of Turkey
for Correction of Ministerial Error on Final
Determination in CVD Proceeding on Steel Concrete
Reinforcing Bar from the Republic of Turkey,’’ May
24, 2017 (GOT Ministerial Error Allegations); Letter
from the petitioner, ‘‘Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar

351.224(e), the Department is amending
the Final Determination to reflect the
correction of these ministerial errors,
resulting in a change in the net
countervailable subsidy rate from 16.21
percent to 15.99 percent. In addition,
because the ‘‘all-others’’ rate is based on
Habas’s subsidy rate, we are revising the
subsidy rate for companies that were not
individually examined in this
investigation from 16.21 percent to
15.99 percent.10
Countervailing Duty Order
In accordance with sections
705(b)(1)(A)(i) and 705(d) of the Act, the
ITC notified the Department of its final
determination that an industry in the
United States is materially injured by
reason of subsidized imports of rebar
from Turkey.11 Therefore, in accordance
with section 705(c)(2) of the Act, we are
issuing this CVD order.
Because the ITC determined that
imports of rebar from Turkey are
materially injuring a U.S. industry,
unliquidated entries of such
merchandise from Turkey, entered or
withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption, are subject to the
assessment of countervailing duties.
Therefore, in accordance with section
706(a) of the Act, the Department will
direct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further
instruction by the Department,
countervailing duties for all relevant
entries of rebar from Turkey in an
amount equal to the net countervailable
subsidy rates for the subject
merchandise. Countervailing duties will
be assessed on unliquidated entries of
rebar from Turkey entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption, on or after March 1, 2017,
the date on which the Department
published its preliminary determination
in the Federal Register.12
Continuation of Suspension of
Liquidation
In accordance with section 706 of the
Act, the Department will direct CBP to
continue to suspend liquidation of all
relevant entries of rebar from Turkey,
effective the date of publication of the
ITC’s notice of final determination in
10 See Ministerial Error Memorandum at 8.
Currently, only Habas is subject to this CVD order.
Therefore, at this time, no companies will be
subject to the all-others rate and the cash deposit
rates discussed below will apply solely to rebar
produced and exported by Habas.

On May 24, 2017, Haba[scedil] Sinai ve Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal

GOT) alleged that the Department made ministerial errors in the Final
Determination.\5\ The petitioner in this proceeding, the Rebar Trade

comments on the ministerial error allegations.\7\ A ministerial error
is defined as an error in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Department reviewed the record and agrees that certain errors
identified by Habas constitute ministerial errors within the meaning of
section 705(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(f).\9\ Therefore, pursuant
to 19 CFR 351.224(e), the Department is amending the Final
Determination to reflect the correction of these ministerial errors,
resulting in a change in the net countervailable subsidy rate from
16.21 percent to 15.99 percent. In addition, because the ``all-others''
rate is based on Habas's subsidy rate, we are revising the subsidy rate
for companies that were not individually examined in this investigation
from 16.21 percent to 15.99 percent.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Ministerial Error Memorandum.
\10\ See Ministerial Error Memorandum at 8. Currently, only
Habas is subject to this CVD order. Therefore, at this time, no

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Countervailing Duty Order
In accordance with sections 705(b)(1)(A)(i) and 705(d) of the Act,
the ITC notified the Department of its final determination that an
industry in the United States is materially injured by reason of
subsidized imports of rebar from Turkey.\11\ Therefore, in accordance
with section 705(c)(2) of the Act, we are issuing this CVD order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ Notification of ITC Final Determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the ITC determined that imports of rebar from Turkey are
materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such
merchandise from Turkey, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption, are subject to the assessment of countervailing duties.
Therefore, in accordance with section 706(a) of the Act, the Department
will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, upon
further instruction by the Department, countervailing duties for all
relevant entries of rebar from Turkey in an amount equal to the net
countervailable subsidy rates for the subject merchandise.
Countervailing duties will be assessed on unliquidated entries of rebar
from Turkey entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or
after March 1, 2017, the date on which the Department published its
preliminary determination in the Federal Register.\12\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation
In accordance with section 706 of the Act, the Department will
direct CBP to continue to suspend liquidation of all relevant entries
of rebar from Turkey, effective the date of publication of the ITC's
notice of final determination in
[[Page 32532]]
the Federal Register. These instructions will remain in effect until
further notice.
The Department will also instruct CBP to require cash deposits
equal to the amounts indicated below, effective the date of publication
of this amended final determination in the Federal Register. At the
time of publication, only rebar both produced and exported by Habas is
within the scope of this order. Accordingly, no companies are currently
subject to the all-others rate listed below.

rates:
