SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On November 20, 2019, Commerce published its Final Results in the 
2017-2018 antidumping duty administrative review of pipes and tubes 
from Thailand.\1\ In the Final Results, Commerce determined that a 
particular market situation (PMS) existed in the Thai pipes and tubes 
market related to purchases of hot-rolled coil during the POR.\2\

Decision Memorandum, at 6-7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Mandatory respondent Saha Thai challenged Commerce's Final Results 
before the CIT. On October 19, 2020, the CIT remanded the Final Results 
and ordered Commerce to remove its cost-based PMS adjustment and 
recalculate Saha Thai's weighted-average dumping margin without a PMS 
adjustment.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Saha Thai Steel Pipe Pub. Co. Ltd. v. United States, 476 
F. Supp. 3d 1378, 1386 (CIT 2020) (Saha Thai I).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the Final Redetermination, issued in March 2021, Commerce, under 
respectful protest, recalculated Saha Thai's weighted-average dumping 
margin without making a cost-based PMS adjustment.\4\ The CIT held that 
Commerce's Final Redetermination was consistent with the CIT's order in 
Saha Thai II.\5\

Remand, Saha Thai Steel Pipe Pub. Co., Ltd., et al. v. United

(Final Redetermination).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken,\6\ as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,\7\ 
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant 
to sections 516A(c) and (e) 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 September 
17, 2021, judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not 
in harmony with Commerce's Final Results. Thus, this notice is 
published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 
1990) (Timken).
    \7\ See Diamond Sawblades Manufacturers Coalition v. United 
States, 626 F.3d 1374 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (Diamond Sawblades).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amended Final Results

    Because there is now a final court judgment, Commerce is amending 
its Final Results with respect to Saha Thai. The revised dumping 
margins are as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                        Final results
                                          of review:    Final results of
                                          weighted-     redetermination:
          Exporter/producer            average dumping  weighted-average
                                            margin       dumping  margin
                                          (percent)         (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saha Thai Steel Pipe (Public)                    5.15              0.00
 Company, Ltd........................
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Because Saha Thai has a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there 
have been final results published in a subsequent administrative 
review, we will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP). These amended final results of 
review will not affect the current cash deposit rate.

Liquidation of Suspended Entries

    Commerce intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on 
unliquidated entries of subject merchandise, where appropriate,

[[Page 56405]]

pursuant to the final and conclusive court decision and in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.212(b). The time for appeals has expired. Because Saha 
Thai's weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the 
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate 
the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Commerce's ``reseller policy'' will apply to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by Saha Thai for which Saha Thai 
did not know that the merchandise they 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.\9\

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 
68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
516A(c) and (e) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
