SUMMARY: Based on affirmative final determinations by the Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the International Trade Commission (ITC), Commerce is issuing a countervailing duty order on cast iron soil pipe fittings (soil pipe fittings) from the People’s Republic of China (China). DATES: Applicable August 31, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background On July 11, 2018, Commerce published its final determination in the countervailing duty investigation of soil pipe fittings from China.1 On August 22, 2018, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination, pursuant to section 705(d) of the Act, that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by reason of subsidized imports of soil pipe fittings from China.2 1 See Cast Iron Soil Pipe Fittings from the People’s Republic of China: Final Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 83 FR 32075 (July 11, 2018) (Final Determination). 2 See ITC Notification Letter to the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by the scope of this order is cast iron soil pipe fittings, finished and unfinished, regardless of industry or proprietary specifications, and regardless of size. Cast iron soil pipe fittings are nonmalleable iron castings of various designs and sizes, including, but not limited to, bends, tees, wyes, traps, drains (other than drain bodies), and other common or special fittings, with or without side inlets. Cast iron soil pipe fittings are classified into two major types—hubless and hub and spigot. Hubless cast iron soil pipe fittings are manufactured without a hub, generally in compliance with Cast Iron Soil Pipe Institute (CISPI) specification 301 and/or American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specification A888. Hub and spigot pipe fittings have hubs into which the spigot (plain end) of the pipe or fitting is inserted. Cast iron soil pipe fittings are generally distinguished from other types of nonmalleable cast iron fittings by the manner in which they are connected to cast iron soil pipe and other fittings. Excluded from this scope are all drain bodies. Drain bodies are normally classified in subheading 7326.90.86.88 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). The cast iron soil pipe fittings subject to the scope of this order are normally classified in subheading 7307.11.0045 of the HTSUS: Cast fittings of nonmalleable cast iron for cast iron soil pipe. They may also be entered under HTSUS 7324.29.0000 and 7307.92.3010. The HTSUS subheadings and specifications are provided for convenience and customs purposes only; the written description of the scope of this order is dispositive. Countervailing Duty Order On August 22, 2018, in accordance with section 705(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination in this investigation, in which it found that imports of cast iron soil pipe fittings are materially injuring a U.S. industry. Therefore, in accordance with section 705(c)(2) of the Act, we are publishing this countervailing duty order. In its determination, the ITC found two domestic like products covered by the scope of the investigation: Drain bodies and all other soil pipe fittings. The ITC made a negative determination with respect to drain bodies and an Compliance, referencing ITC Investigation Nos. 701–TA–583 and 731–TA–1381, dated August 22, 2018. E:\FR\FM\31AUN1.SGM 31AUN1
