Oil Country Tubular Goods From Ukraine: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2020-2021, 17521-17522 [2023-06018]

Download as PDF 17521 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 56 / Thursday, March 23, 2023 / Notices Cash Deposit Requirements DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Commerce will issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for ISEC. In the Final Results, Commerce determined to treat ISEC and E–TON as a single entity for the purposes of this administrative review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.401(f).6 However, the cash deposit will remain specific to ISEC, given the fact that E–TON ceased to exist during the POR.7 International Trade Administration Liquidation of Suspended Entries At this time, Commerce remains enjoined by the CIT order from liquidating entries that were produced and/or exported by ISEC and E–TON, and imported by JA Solar, that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period February 1, 2019, through January 31, 2020. These entries will remain enjoined pursuant to the terms of the injunction during the pendency of any appeals process. In the event that the CIT’s ruling is not appealed or, if appealed, upheld by a final and conclusive court decision, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by ISEC and E–TON, and imported by JA Solar, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b). We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review when the importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis. Where an importer-specific ad valorem assessment rate is zero or de minimis,8 we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on our analysis of the comments received from Interpipe 
regarding our Preliminary Results, we made certain changes to the 
calculation of the weighted-average dumping margin for Interpipe in 
these final results.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We have calculated the following weighted-average dumping margin 
for Interpipe for the period July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2021:

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

Disclosure

    We intend 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

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1), Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of 
this review.\6\ For

[[Page 17522]]

Interpipe, we will calculate importer-specific assessment rates on the 
basis of the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated 
for each importer's examined sales and the total entered value of the 
sales, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Where an importer-
specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis, Commerce 
will instruct CBP to collect the appropriate duties at the time of 
liquidation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Antidumping Proceeding: Calculation of the Weighted-
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping 
Duty Proceedings; Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 
2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Consistent with Commerce's assessment practice, for entries of 
subject merchandise during the POR produced by Interpipe for which it 
did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States, 
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.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 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 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 
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for Interpipe will 
be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the 
final results of this administrative review; (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 recently completed segment of this proceeding in which the company 
participated; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review 
or in a prior segment of the proceeding, but the producer was covered, 
the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most 
recently completed segment of this proceeding for the producer of the 
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or 
exporters will continue to be the all-others rate of 7.47 percent as 
established in the original less-than-fair-value investigation.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Order, 84 FR at 33919.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in 
effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice 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 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.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to an 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition 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 these results of administrative 
review in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 
19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
