Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 163 / Friday, August 21, 2020 / Notices of-sale adjustment to account for the imbalance between the amount of import duties included in U.S. price as a result of the duty drawback adjustment and the amount of import duties reflected in normal value.8 On December 18, 2019, in its Third Remand Order, the CIT ordered Commerce to recalculate normal value without making a circumstance-of-sale adjustment related to the duty drawback adjustment made to U.S. price.9 On March 13, 2020, in the third results of redetermination, Commerce granted Toscelik a duty drawback adjustment, without making a circumstance-of-sale adjustment to account for the imbalance between the U.S. duty drawback adjustment and the amount of import duties reflected in normal value.10 Additionally, Commerce added an imputed cost for import duties to the cost of production.11 This amount is based on Toscelik’s cost of manufacturing during the POR for pipe and tube and was calculated as the ratio of the total amount of Toscelik’s exempted import duties and its cost of manufacturing during the POR. On July 28, 2020, the CIT sustained Commerce’s third results of redetermination, and entered final judgment.12 jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES Timken Notice In its decision in Timken,13 as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,14 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant to section 516A of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), Commerce must publish a notice of court decision that is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with a Commerce determination and must suspend liquidation of entries pending a ‘‘conclusive’’ court decision. The CIT’s July 28, 2020, final judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not in harmony with Commerce’s Amended Final Results.15 Thus, this notice is 8 See Final Results of Redetermination Pursuant to Court Remand, Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. v. United States, Court No. 17–00018, Slip Op. 19–41 (CIT April 1, 2019) (Second Redetermination). 9 See Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. v. United States, 415 F.

United States, Court No. 17–00018, Slip Op. 19–166 (CIT December 18, 2019) (Third Redetermination). 11 Id. 12 See Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. v. United States, Court No., 17–00018, Slip Op. 20– 105 (CIT July 28, 2020) (CIT Final Judgment). 13 See Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990) (Timken). 14 See Diamond Sawblades Manufacturers Coalition v. United States, 626 F.3d 1374 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (Diamond Sawblades). 15 See CIT Final Judgment. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:04 Aug 20, 2020 Jkt 250001 published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken and section 516A of the Act. Amended Final Results of Review Because there is now a final court judgment, Commerce is amending its Amended Final Results with respect to Toscelik as follows: Exporter or producer Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S. ......................................... Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) 0.00 Cash Deposit Requirements Because Toscelik has a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been final results published in a subsequent administrative review for Toscelik, this notice will not affect the current cash deposit rate for Toscelik. Liquidation of Suspended Entries If the CIT’s final judgment is not appealed, or if appealed and upheld, because Toscelik’s amended weightedaverage dumping margin is zero percent, Commerce will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation, and to liquidate and to assess duties at a rate of zero for entries during the POR that were produced and exported by Toscelik. Consistent with Commerce’s assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Toscelik for which Toscelik did not know that the 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.16 Lastly, at this time, Commerce remains enjoined by Court order from liquidating entries that: (1) Were the subject of the administrative determination published in the Final Results, as amended by the Amended Final Results; 17 (2) were produced and/ or exported by any of the following: Toscelik Profil ve Sac Endustrisi A.S.; Tosyali Dis Ticaret A.S.; Tubeco Pipe and Steel Corporation; and Toscelik Metal Ticaret A.S.; (3) were entered, or were withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after May 1, 2014 through and including April 30, 2015; 16 For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). 17 See Final Results, 81 FR at 92785; see also Amended Final Results, 82 FR at 11002.
