From the People’s Republic of China:
Continuation of the Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Orders
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(Commerce) and the International Trade
Commission (ITC) have determined that
revocation of the antidumping duty
(AD) and the countervailing duty (CVD)
orders on certain oil country tubular
goods (OCTG) from the People’s
Republic of China (China) would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping, countervailable subsidies, and
material injury to an industry in the
United States. Therefore, Commerce is
publishing a notice of continuation of
the AD and CVD orders.
DATES: Applicable December 3, 2020.

year (sunset) reviews of the AD and
CVD orders on OCTG from China,3
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As
a result of its reviews, Commerce
determined that revocation of the
Orders on OCTG from China would
likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping and countervailable
subsidies. Therefore, Commerce notified
the ITC of the magnitude of the margins
of dumping and the subsidy rates likely
to prevail should the Orders be revoked,
pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and
752(b) and (c) of the Act.4
On November 27, 2020, the ITC
published its determination that
revocation of the Orders on OCTG from
China would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of material injury to an
industry in the United States within a
reasonably foreseeable time, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Act.5
Scope of the Orders
The scope of these orders consists of
certain OCTG, which are hollow steel
products of circular cross-section,
including oil well casing and tubing, of
iron (other than cast iron) or steel (both
carbon and alloy), whether seamless or
welded, regardless of end finish (e.g.,
whether or not plain end, threaded, or
threaded and coupled) whether or not
conforming to American Petroleum
Institute (API) or non-API
specifications, whether finished
(including limited service OCTG
products) or unfinished (including
green tubes and limited service OCTG
products), whether or not thread
protectors are attached. The scope of
these orders also covers OCTG coupling
stock. Excluded from the scope of these
orders are casing or tubing containing
10.5 percent or more by weight of
chromium; drill pipe; unattached
couplings; and unattached thread
protectors.
The merchandise covered by these
orders is currently classified in the

Continuation of the Orders
As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that
revocation of the Orders would likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of dumping and countervailable subsidies, as well as
material injury to an industry in the United States, pursuant to
section 75l(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a), Commerce hereby
orders the continuation of the Orders. U.S. Customs and Border
Protection will continue to collect AD and CVD cash deposits at the
rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject
merchandise.
The effective date of the continuation of the Orders will be the
date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of
continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next five-year reviews
of these orders not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary
of the effective date of this continuation notice.
Notification to Interested Parties
These five-year sunset reviews and this notice are in accordance
with section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).
Dated: November 27, 2020.
