751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
Verification
On November 23, 2020, AK Steel
Corporation (the petitioners) requested,
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.307(b)(1)(v),
that Commerce conduct verification of
the questionnaire responses submitted
in this administrative review by
Liberty.11 Commerce is currently unable
to conduct on-site verification of the
information relied upon in making its
final results of this administrative
review. Accordingly, we intend to take
additional steps in lieu of on-site
verification to verify the information.
Commerce will notify interested parties
of any additional documentation or
information required.
Assessment Rate
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Upon issuing the final results,
Commerce will determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.12 If the respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is not zero or
de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent)
in the final results of this review, we
intend to calculate an importer-specific
assessment rate on the basis of the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for each importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of those
sales in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1).13 If the respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis in the final results,
or an importer-specific assessment rate
is zero or de minimis, then we intend to
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties. The final results of this
administrative review shall be the basis
for the assessment of antidumping
duties on entries of merchandise under
review and for future deposits of
estimated duties, where applicable.
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Liberty for
which it did not know its merchandise
was destined for the United States, we
intend to instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others rate
if there is no rate for the intermediate

Products from the United Kingdom/Request for
Verification,’’ dated November 23, 2020.

company(ies) involved in the
transaction.
We intend to issue liquidation
instructions to CBP no earlier than 35
days after publication of the final results
of this review in the Federal Register.
If a timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
liquidation instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
for estimated antidumping duties will
be effective upon publication of the
notice of final results of this review for
all shipments of CR steel from the
United Kingdom entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication as provided
by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The
cash deposit rate for Liberty, subject to
this review, will be equal to the
weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of the
review; (2) for merchandise exported by
a company not covered in this review
but covered in a prior completed
segment of the proceeding, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific cash deposit rate
published for the most recent period; (3)
if the exporter is not a firm covered in
this review, a prior completed review,
or the original less-than-fair-value
(LTFV) investigation but the producer
has been covered in a completed
segment of this proceeding, then the
cash deposit rate will be the companyspecific cash deposit cash deposit rate
established for the most recent period
for the producer of the merchandise; (4)
the cash deposit rate for all other
producers or exporters will continue to
be 22.58 percent,14 the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.
These cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping duties occurred and the
subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.

this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, Commerce determined
that it was not practicable to complete the preliminary results of this
review within the 245 days and extended these preliminary results by
120 days, until June 30, 2021.\5\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the Order are certain cold-drawn mechanical
tubing of carbon and alloy steel products from Italy. For a full
description of the scope, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Act. We calculated export price and constructed export
price in accordance with section 772 of the Act. We calculated NV in
accordance with section 773 of the Act. For a full description of the
methodology underlying these preliminary results, see the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum. A list of topics included in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum is included as an appendix to this notice. The
Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a public document and is made
available to the public via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov. In
addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is
available at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/.
Preliminary Results of the Review
We preliminarily determine that the following weighted-average
dumping margin exists for the period June 1, 2019, through May 31,
2020:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Exporter/producer dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dalmine S.p.A.............................................. 0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the final results, Commerce shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries. If Dalmine's weighted-average
dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent)
in the final results of this review, we will calculate importer-
specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates based on the
ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for the importer's
examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review
when the importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final
results of this review is not zero or de minimis. If Dalmine's
weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, we will instruct
CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping
duties. The final results of this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by
the final results of this review and for future deposits of estimated
duties, where applicable.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Dalmine
for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the
all-others rate in the original less-than-fair value (LTFV)

Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
finals results of this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for Dalmine in the
final results of review will be equal to the weighted-average dumping
margin established in the final results of this administrative review
except if the rate is less than 0.50 percent and, therefore, de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for merchandise exported by producers or
exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of
the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published for the most recently-completed segment of this
proceeding in which they were reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review or the original LTFV investigation but the
producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established
for the most recently-completed segment of this proceeding for the
producer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
producers or exporters will continue to be 47.87 percent,\10\ the all-
others rate established in the LTFV investigation. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.

Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, including the results of its
analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, not later than 120
days after the date of publication of this notice, pursuant to section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
Notification to Importers
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
This administrative review and notice are issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
