Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs by parties in this review
are addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, which is hereby adopted
by this notice. A list of the issues raised
is attached in the Appendix to this
notice. The Issues and Decision
Memorandum is a public document and
is on file electronically via Enforcement
and Compliance’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at https://access.trade.gov and to all

Room B–8024 of the main Department
of Commerce building. In addition, a
complete version of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum can be accessed
directly at https://enforcement.trade.gov/

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of comments
received, we revised the preliminary
margin calculations for the two
mandatory respondents, Husteel Co.,
Ltd. (Husteel) and Hyundai Steel
Company (Hyundai Steel). These
revisions resulted in changes to the
margins for Husteel, Hyundai Steel, and
the three respondents not selected for
individual examination for the final
results of this review.
Final Results of the Administrative
Review
We determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margins
exist for the respondents for the period
November 1, 2015, through October 31,
2016.

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce will determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review.
For Husteel and Hyundai Steel, we
calculated importer-specific assessment
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total
amount of antidumping duties
calculated for each importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of the
sales, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).7 For entries of subject
merchandise during the period of
review produced by Husteel or Hyundai
Steel for which it did not know its
merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.
For the companies which were not
selected for individual examination,
AJU Besteel, NEXTEEL, and SeAH Steel
Corporation, we will instruct CBP to
apply the rates listed above to all entries
of subject merchandise produced and/or
exported by these firms. We intend to
issue liquidation instructions to CBP 15
days after publication of the final results
of these reviews.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of
this notice for all shipments of CWP
from Korea entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the date of publication, as provided by
19.28 section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The
7.71 cash deposit rate for the companies
30.85 listed above will be equal to the
19.28 weighted-average dumping margins

requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice 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 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.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 the terms of an
APO is a violation subject to sanction.
This notice is published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.221(b)(5).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
In accordance with the Executive
Order 12862, the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), a
non-regulatory agency of the
Department of Commerce, proposes to
conduct a number of data collection
efforts—both quantitative and
qualitative. The data collections will be
designed to determine requirements and
evaluate the usability and utility of
NIST research for measurement and
standardization work. These data
collections efforts may include, but may
not be limited to electronic
methodologies, empirical studies, video
and audio collections, interviews, and
questionnaires. For example, data
collection efforts may include the
cryptography software survey and the
password generation study. NIST will
limit its inquiries to data collections
that solicit strictly voluntary opinions or
responses. NIST will not conduct
individual data collections under this
generic clearance that are mandatory,
required, or regulated. The data
collected will be used to guide NIST
research. NIST will take steps to ensure
anonymity of respondents in each
activity covered under this request.
II. Method of Collection
NIST will collect this information by
electronic means when possible, as well
as by mail, fax, telephone and personto-person interviews. If an information
collection is conducted in person, NIST
will provide the respondent with a
paper copy of the collection instrument
that displays the ‘‘notwithstanding
statement’’, OMB Control # and current
Expiration date.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0693–0043.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Revision and
extension of a currently approved
information collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households, State, local or tribal
government, Federal government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
15,000.
Estimated Time per Response: Varied,
dependent upon the data collection
method used. The estimated response
time to complete a questionnaire is 15

minutes or 2 hours to participate in an
empirical study.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 15,000.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0.
IV. Request for Comments
NIST invites comments on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden (including hours and cost)
of the proposed collection of
information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties in
this review are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, which
is hereby adopted by this notice. A list of the issues raised is
attached in the Appendix to this notice. The Issues and Decision
Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via
Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to
registered users at https://access.trade.gov and to all parties in the
Central Records Unit, Room B-8024 of the main Department of Commerce
building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of comments received, we revised the
preliminary margin calculations for the two mandatory respondents,
Husteel Co., Ltd. (Husteel) and Hyundai Steel Company (Hyundai Steel).
These revisions resulted in changes to the margins for Husteel, Hyundai
Steel, and the three respondents not selected for individual
examination for the final results of this review.
Final Results of the Administrative Review
We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins
exist for the respondents for the period November 1, 2015, through
October 31, 2016.

\6\ In the initiation notice, we initiated reviews of both
Hyundai HYSCO and Hyundai Steel Company, but stated that Hyundai
Steel Company is the successor-in-interest to Hyundai HYSCO. See
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 82 FR 4294, 4296 (January 13, 2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
We intend to disclose the calculations performed to parties in this
proceeding within five days after public announcement of the final
results in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of
this review.
For Husteel and Hyundai Steel, we calculated importer-specific
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for each importer's examined sales and
the total entered value of the sales, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).\7\ For entries of subject merchandise during the period
of review produced by Husteel or Hyundai Steel 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 if
there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the
transaction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
