filed later than five days after the time
limit for filing case briefs.5 Parties who
submit case briefs or rebuttal briefs in
this review are requested to submit with
each brief: (1) A statement of the issue;
(2) a brief summary of the argument;
and (3) a table of authorities.6 Executive
summaries should be limited to five
pages total, including footnotes.7
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), any
interested party may request a hearing
within 30 days of the publication of this
notice in the Federal Register. If a
hearing is requested, Commerce will
notify interested parties of the hearing
schedule. Interested parties who wish to
request a hearing, or to participate if one
is requested, must submit a written
request to the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, filed
electronically via ACCESS within 30
days after the date of publication of this

party’s name, address, and telephone
number; (2) the number of participants;
and (3) a list of the issues to be

respective case briefs.
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the
administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review.8 If the
weighted-average dumping margin is
not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5
percent), then Commerce will calculate
importer-specific ad valorem
antidumping duty assessment rates
based on the ratio of the total amount of
dumping calculated for each importer’s
examined sales to the total entered
value of those same sales in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If the
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis in the final results,
or if an importer-specific assessment
rate is zero or de minimis in the final
results, Commerce will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
In accordance with Commerce’s
‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, for
entries of subject merchandise that
entered the United States during the
POR that were produced by the
respondents for which the respondents
did not know that its merchandise was
destined to the United States,
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others rate

19 CFR 351.309(d)(1).

of 6.19 percent,9 if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved
in the transaction.10 The final results of
this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on
entries of subject merchandise covered
by the final results of this review, where
applicable.
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
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
assessment 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
will be effective for all shipments of
MSG from Indonesia entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication of the final results of this
administrative review, as provided for
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rate for the companies
under review will be the rate
established in the final results of this
review (except, if the rate is zero or de
minimis, no cash deposit will be
required); (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for
the most recent period; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the less-thanfair-value investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 6.19
percent, the all-others rate established
in the investigation.11 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 our analysis of
issues raised by the parties in the

Background
On October 26, 2021, the Department
of Commerce (Commerce) initiated
countervailing duty (CVD)
investigations of imports of oil country
tubular goods (OCTG) from Korea and
Russia.1 Currently, the preliminary
determinations are due no later than
December 30, 2021.
Postponement of Preliminary
Determinations
Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in a countervailing duty
investigation within 65 days after the
date on which Commerce initiated the
investigation. However, section
703(c)(1) of the Act permits Commerce
to postpone the preliminary
determination until no later than 130
days after the date on which Commerce
initiated the investigation if: (A) The
petitioner 2 makes a timely request for a
postponement; or (B) Commerce
concludes that the parties concerned are
cooperating, that the investigation is
extraordinarily complicated, and that
additional time is necessary to make a
preliminary determination. Under 19
CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must
submit a request for postponement 25
days or more before the scheduled date
of the preliminary determination and
must state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.
On November 15, 2021, the
petitioners submitted timely requests
that Commerce postpone the
preliminary CVD determinations.3 The
petitioners stated that they request
postponement because ‘‘{t}he current
deadline is not realistic for several
reasons, including, most importantly,
the fact that Commerce has not yet
received any questionnaire responses.’’ 4
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.205(e),
the petitioners have stated the reasons
1 See Oil Country Tubular Goods from the
Republic of Korea and the Russian Federation:
Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigations, 86
FR 60210 (November 1, 2021) (Initiation Notice).

U.S., Inc.; PTC Liberty Tubulars LLC; U.S. Steel

for requesting a postponement of the

Commerce finds no compelling reason
to deny the request. Therefore, in
accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) of
the Act, Commerce is postponing the
deadline for the preliminary
determinations to no later than 130 days
after the date on which these
investigations were initiated, i.e., March
7, 2022.5 Pursuant to section 705(a)(1) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the
deadline for the final determinations of
these investigations will continue to be

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), any interested party may request a
hearing within 30 days of the publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. If a hearing is requested, Commerce will notify interested
parties of the hearing schedule. Interested parties who wish to request
a hearing, or to participate if one is requested, must submit a written
request to the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance,
filed electronically via ACCESS within 30 days after the date of
publication of this notice. Requests should contain: (1) The party's
name, address, and telephone number; (2) the number of participants;
and (3) a list of the issues to be discussed. Issues raised in the
hearing will be limited to those raised in the respective case briefs.
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce shall
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this
review.\8\ If the weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), then Commerce will calculate
importer-specific ad valorem antidumping duty assessment rates based on
the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer's
examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). If the weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis in the final results, or if an importer-
specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis in the final results,
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise that entered the United States
during the POR that were produced by the respondents for which the
respondents did not know that its merchandise was destined to the
United States, Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate of 6.19 percent,\9\ if there is no rate
for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\10\ The
final results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of subject merchandise covered by the
final results of this review, where applicable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Order.
\10\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of 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 assessment 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 will be effective for all
shipments of MSG from Indonesia entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review, as provided for by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the companies
under review will be the rate established in the final results of this
review (except, if the rate is zero or de minimis, no cash deposit will
be required); (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not
listed above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter
is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the less-than-
fair-value investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the
manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 6.19 percent, the
all-others rate established in the investigation.\11\ These cash
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, including the results of our
analysis of issues raised by the parties in the written comments,
within 120 days of publication of these preliminary results
[[Page 67909]]
in the Federal Register, 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) 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 Commerce's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These preliminary results of administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: November 23, 2021.
James Maeder,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
