Notification to Importers Regarding the
Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final
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 the POR.
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 Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is
a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(5).

On August 4, 2021, Commerce published the preliminary results of
this administrative review.\1\ The review covers 40 producers or
exporters of subject merchandise. We invited interested parties to
comment on the Preliminary Results. A summary of the events that
occurred since Commerce published the Preliminary Results, as well as a
full discussion of the issues raised by parties for these final
results, are discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum.\2\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The product covered by this Order is large diameter welded pipe
from Canada. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see
the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, Commerce determined that Canam (St
Gedeon) (Canam),\4\ had no shipments during the POR.\5\ As we have
received no information to contradict this determination, consistent
with our practice, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to liquidate any existing entries of subject merchandise produced
by this company, but exported by other parties, at the rate for the
intermediate reseller, if available, or at the all-others rate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ In the Initiation Notice, this company was listed as Canam
(St Gedeon). However, in its certification of no shipments, it noted
that Canam (St Gedeon) is a plant location and not its legal name.
It also noted that it had recently undergone a corporate
restructuring and is now named Canam Group Inc., which is the
successor entity to Canam Group Inc. f/k/a Canam Buildings and
Structures Inc. See Canam's Letter, ``No Shipments Letter for Canam
Group Inc. f/k/a Canam Buildings and Structures Inc.,'' dated August
7, 2020; see also Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Rate for Non-Examined Respondents
As we stated in the Preliminary Results, the statute and Commerce's
regulations do not address the establishment of a rate to be applied to
companies not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits
its examination in an administrative review pursuant to section
777A(c)(2) of the Act.\8\ For the weighted-average dumping margin for
non-examined respondents in an administrative review, generally,
Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides
instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an
investigation.\9\ Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others
rate is normally an amount equal to the weighted average of the
estimated weighted-average dumping margins established for exporters
and producers individually investigated, excluding rates that are zero,
de minimis, or based entirely on facts available. For these final
results, we calculated a weighted-average dumping margin for Evraz Inc.
NA (Evraz), the sole mandatory respondent, that was not zero, de
minimis, or based entirely on facts available. Accordingly, consistent
with our practice, we applied the weighted-average dumping margin
calculated for Evraz as the weighted-average dumping margin for the
non-examined companies.\10\

Final Results of the Review
As a result of this review, we determine the following weighted-
average dumping margins exist for the POR:

Disclosure
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ In the underlying less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation, Commerce determined that Evraz Inc. NA, Evraz Inc. NA
Canada, and the Canadian National Steel Corporation (or Corp.)
(collectively, Evraz) comprise a single entity. See Order. There is
no information on the record of this review that warrants
reconsideration of this single entity determination. In the
Preliminary Results, Commerce inadvertently listed the abbreviated
name form ``Canadian National Steel Corp'' in Appendix II as this
name form was listed in the Initiation Notice separately from the
Evraz single entity. As the two names differ only by the
abbreviation of Corporation to Corp., we find them to be the same
company, and thus, have not listed the abbreviated form in Appendix
II of this notice.
\12\ See Appendix II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed for these
final results within five days of the date of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
Assessment Rates
Commerce determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on
all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with these
final results of review.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), as Evraz reported that it is the
importer of record for all its U.S. sales and it reported the entered
value of those sales, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty
assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of those
sales. Where the respondent's weighted-average dumping margin is zero
or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an
importer-specific assessment rate is zero or de minimis, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties.
Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice will apply to entries
of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Evraz for which the
company did not know that the merchandise it sold to the intermediary
(e.g., a reseller, trading company, or exporter) was destined for the
United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate
unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ For a full discussion of this practice, see Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties,
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies which were not selected for individual
examination, we intend to direct CBP to assess antidumping duties at a
rate equal to the weighted-average dumping margin determined for those
companies in the final results.
For the company that certified it had no shipments, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate any existing entries of subject merchandise
produced by it, but exported by other parties, at the rate for the
intermediate reseller, if available, or at the all-others rate,
consistent with Commerce's reseller policy.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue liquidation instructions to CBP no
earlier than 41 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 in effect for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the companies
listed above will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin that
is established in the final results of this 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 previously investigated or reviewed companies not subject
to this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published for the most recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which the company participated; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV
investigation, but the producer is, the cash deposit rate will be the
rate established for the most recently completed segment of the
proceeding for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other producers and exporters will continue to be
12.32 percent ad valorem, the all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\16\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in
effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers Regarding the Reimbursement of Duties
This notice also serves as a final 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 the POR. 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 Regarding Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective
order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: January 28, 2022.
