Certain Welded Stainless Steel Pipe
From South Korea and Taiwan
Determinations
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject five-year reviews, the
United States International Trade
Commission (‘‘Commission’’)
determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of
1930 (‘‘the Act’’), that revocation of the
antidumping duty orders on certain
welded stainless steel pipe from South
Korea and Taiwan would be likely to
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time.
Background
The Commission instituted these
reviews on May 2, 2022 (87 FR 25668)
and determined on August 5, 2022, that
it would conduct expedited reviews (87
FR 64112, October 21, 2022).
The Commission made these
determinations pursuant to section
751(c) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)). It
completed and filed its determinations
in these reviews on December 14, 2022.
The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 5395

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.—On September 6, 2022,
the Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group
response to its notice of institution (87
FR 33206, June 1, 2022) of the subject
five-year reviews was adequate and that
the respondent interested party group
response was inadequate. The
Commission did not find any other
circumstances that would warrant
conducting full reviews.1 Accordingly,
the Commission determined that it
would conduct expedited reviews
pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the
Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).
For further information concerning
the conduct of these reviews and rules

containing information concerning the
subject matter of the reviews has been
placed in the nonpublic record, and will
be made available to persons on the
Administrative Protective Order service
list for these reviews on December 16,
1 A record of the Commissioners’ votes, the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Consistent with section 9(f) of the
Reclamation Project Act of 1939, and the rules and regulations

[[Page 77635]]
of the contracting parties may invite the public to observe contract
proceedings. All public participation procedures will be coordinated
with those involved in complying with the National Environmental Policy
Act. Pursuant to the ``Final Revised Public Participation Procedures''
for water resource-related contract negotiations, published in 47 FR
7763, February 22, 1982, a tabulation is provided of all proposed
contractual actions in each of the five Reclamation regions. When
contract negotiations are completed, and prior to execution, each
proposed contract form must be approved by the Secretary of the
Interior, or pursuant to delegated or redelegated authority, the
Commissioner of Reclamation or one of the regional directors. In some
instances, congressional review and approval of a report, water rate,
or other terms and conditions of the contract may be involved.
Public participation in and receipt of comments on contract
proposals will be facilitated by adherence to the following procedures:
1. Only persons authorized to act on behalf of the contracting
entities may negotiate the terms and conditions of a specific contract
proposal.
2. Advance notice of meetings or hearings will be furnished to
those parties that have made a timely written request for such notice
to the appropriate regional or project office of Reclamation.
3. Written correspondence regarding proposed contracts may be made
available to the general public pursuant to the terms and procedures of
the Freedom of Information Act, as amended.
4. Written comments on a proposed contract or contract action must
be submitted to the appropriate regional officials at the locations and
within the time limits set forth in the advance public notices.
5. All written comments received and testimony presented at any
public hearings will be reviewed and summarized by the appropriate
regional office for use by the contract approving authority.
6. Copies of specific proposed contracts may be obtained from the
appropriate regional director or his or her designated public contact
as they become available for review and comment.
7. In the event modifications are made in the form of a proposed
contract, the appropriate regional director shall determine whether
republication of the notice and/or extension of the comment period is
necessary.
Factors considered in making such a determination shall include,
but are not limited to, (i) the significance of the modification, and
(ii) the degree of public interest which has been expressed over the
course of the negotiations. At a minimum, the regional director will
furnish revised contracts to all parties who requested the contract in
response to the initial public notice.
