authority to enforce the FTR to the BIS’s
Office of Export Enforcement and the
Department of Homeland Security’s CBP
and Immigrations and Customs
Enforcement. The mandatory use of the
AES also facilitates the enforcement of
the Export Administration Regulations
for the detection and prevention of
exports of high technology commodities
to unauthorized destinations by the BIS
and the CBP; the International Traffic in
Arms Regulations by the U.S.
Department of State for the exports of
munitions; and the validation of the
Kimberly Process Certificate for the
exports of rough diamonds.
Other Federal agencies use these data
to develop the components of the
merchandise trade figures used to
calculate the balance of payments and
Gross Domestic Product accounts; to
enforce U.S. export laws and
regulations; to plan and examine export
promotion programs and agricultural
development and assistance programs;
and to prepare for and assist in trade
negotiations under the General
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.
Collection of these data also eliminates
the need for conducting additional
surveys for the collection of
information, as the AES shows the
relationship of the parties to the export
transaction (as required by the Bureau of
Economic Analysis). These AES data are
also used by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics as a source for developing the
export price index and by the U.S.
Department of Transportation for
administering the negotiation of
reciprocal arrangements for
transportation facilities between the
United States and other countries.
Export statistics collected from the
AES aid state governments, private
sector companies, financial institutions,
and transportation entities in
conducting market analysis and market
penetration studies for the development
of new markets and market-share
strategies. A collaborative effort among
the Census Bureau, the National
Governors’ Association and other data
users resulted in the development of
export statistics using the state of origin
reported on the AES. This information
enables state governments to focus
activities and resources on fostering the
exports of goods that originate in their
states. Port authorities, steamship lines,
airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and air
transport associations use these data for
measuring the volume and effect of air
or vessel shipments and the need for
additional or new types of facilities.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(Commerce) determines that welded

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments; 2016–
2017, 83 FR 26951 (June 11, 2018) (Preliminary
Results) and accompanying Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.
2 As explained in the Preliminary Results,
Commerce treated Borusan Mannesmann Boru
Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. and Borusan Istikbal Ticaret
T.A.S. as a single entity in this administrative
review. See Preliminary Decision Memorandum at
1, n.1.
3 In prior segments of this proceeding, we treated
Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S., Tosyali Dis
Ticaret A.S., and Toscelik Metal as a single entity.
See, e.g., Welded Carbon Steel Standard Pipe and
Tube Products from Turkey: Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2012–
2013, 79 FR 71087, 71088 n.8 (December 1, 2014).
However, in a prior review, we found that Toscelik
Metal has ceased to exist. Id. There is no record
evidence that warrants altering this treatment.
Therefore, for these final results, we are treating
Toscelik and Tosyali as a single entity, and
continue to find that Toscelik Metal no longer
exists.
