Mr. Marc Phillips, Senior Regulatory Policy Specialist, Regulatory Coordination and Compliance, PPQ, APHIS, 4700 River Road, Unit 133, Riverdale, MD 20737– 1231; (301) 851–2114. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the regulations in ‘‘Subpart L–Fruits and Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56–1 through 319.56–12, referred to below as the regulations), the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) prohibits or restricts the importation of fruits and vegetables into the United States from certain parts of the world to prevent plant pests from being introduced into or disseminated within the United States. Section 319.56–4 contains a performance-based process for approving the importation of certain fruits and vegetables that, based on the findings of a pest risk analysis, can be safely imported subject to one or more of the five designated phytosanitary measures listed in paragraph (b) of that section. APHIS received a request from the national plant protection organization (NPPO) of Mexico to allow the importation of fresh sapodilla fruit (Manilkara zapota van Royen) into the continental United States. As part of our evaluation of Mexico’s request, we have prepared a pest list to identify pests of quarantine significance that could follow the pathway of importation of fresh sapodilla fruit into the continental United States from Mexico. Based on the pest list, a risk management document (RMD) was prepared to identify phytosanitary measures that could be applied to the fresh sapodilla fruit to mitigate the pest risk. We have concluded that fresh sapodilla fruit can be safely imported from Mexico into the continental United States using one or more of the five designated phytosanitary measures listed in § 319.56–4(b). The NPPO of Mexico would have to enter into an operational workplan with APHIS that spells out the daily procedures the NPPO will take to implement the measures identified in the RMD. These measures are summarized below: • Importation in commercial shipments only, • Phytosanitary treatment (irradiation with a minimum absorbed dose of 400 Gy), • Pre-export inspection by the NPPO and issuance of a phytosanitary certificate stating that the consignment khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:51 May 01, 2019 Jkt 247001 was inspected and found free of quarantine pests, and • Port of entry inspections. Each of the pest risk mitigation measures that would be required, along with evidence of their efficacy in removing pests of concern from the pathway, are described in detail in the RMD. Therefore, in accordance with § 319.56–4(c)(3), we are announcing the availability of our pest list and RMD for public review and comment. Those documents, as well as a description of the economic considerations associated with the importation of fresh sapodilla fruit from Mexico, may be viewed on the Regulations.gov website or in our reading room (see ADDRESSES above for a link to Regulations.gov and information on the location and hours of the reading room). You may request paper copies of these documents by calling or writing to the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Please refer to the subject of the analysis you wish to review when requesting copies. After reviewing any comments we receive, we will announce our decision regarding the import status of fresh sapodilla fruit from Mexico in a subsequent notice. If the overall conclusions of our analysis and the Administrator’s determination of risk remain unchanged following our consideration of the comments, then we will authorize the importation of fresh sapodilla fruit from Mexico into the continental United States subject to the requirements specified in the RMD.

SUMMARY: Based on affirmative final determinations by the Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the International Trade Commission (ITC), Commerce is issuing an antidumping duty order on large diameter welded carbon and alloy steel line and structural pipe from the Republic of Korea (Korea).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 17. Bette B. Brand, Administrator, Rural Business-Cooperative Service. International Trade Administration On February 27, 2019, Commerce published its affirmative final determination in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation of large diameter welded pipe from Korea.1 The scope of the investigation in Commerce’s final determination covered large diameter welded carbon and alloy steel line pipe (welded line pipe), large diameter welded carbon and alloy steel structural pipe (welded structural pipe), and stainless steel large diameter welded pipe (stainless steel pipe) from Korea.2 As discussed below, the ITC subsequently found three domestic like products covered by the scope of the investigation (welded line pipe, welded structural pipe, and stainless steel pipe) and, accordingly, made a separate injury determination with respect to each domestic like product. On April 15, 2019, the ITC notified Commerce of its final determination, pursuant to 735(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), that an industry in the United States is materially injured within the 1 See Large Diameter Welded Pipe from the Republic of Korea: Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, 84 FR 6374 (February 27, 2019) (Final Determination). 2 Id.

Scope of the Order The products covered by this order are welded line pipe and welded structural pipe from Korea. For a complete description of the scope of this order, see the Appendix to this notice. Amended Final Determination 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 Secretary considers ministerial.6 Pursuant to section 735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e) and (f), Commerce is amending the Final Determination to reflect the correction of certain ministerial errors in the final estimated weighted average dumping margin calculated for SeAH Steel Corporation (SeAH). In addition, because SeAH’s estimated weighted average dumping margin is the basis for the estimated weighted average dumping margin determined for all other Korean producers and exporters of subject merchandise, we also are revising the ‘‘all-others’’ rate in the Final Determination.7 The amended estimated weighted average dumping margins are listed in the Suspension of Liquidation section below. 3 See ITC Notification Letter regarding ITC Investigation Nos. 701–TA–595–596 and 731–TA– 1401, 1403, 1405–1406, dated April 15, 2019 (ITC Notification); see also Large Diameter Welded Pipe from Canada, Greece, Korea, and Turkey; Determinations, 84 FR 16533 (April 19, 2019) (ITC Final Determination); and Large Diameter Welded Pipe from Canada, Greece, Korea, and Turkey, Investigation Nos. 701–TA–595–596 and 731–TA– 1401, 1403, 1405–1406 (Final), Publication 4883, April 2019 (Final ITC Report). 4 See ITC Notification. 5 See Memorandum, ‘‘Comments on the Scope of the Orders,’’ dated April 5, 2019. 6 See section 735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(f). 7 See Memorandum, ‘‘Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigation of Large Diameter Welded Pipe from Korea: Ministerial Error Allegations in the Final Determination,’’ dated March 22, 2019.
