Through this notice, the
International Trade Administration
(ITA) of the Department of Commerce
announces a roundtable discussion with
U.S. industry representatives and U.S.
government officials. ITA invites
applications from a wide array of
industry representatives to participate
in the roundtable, ranging from existing
manufacturers of goods and providers of
services to prospective new market
entrants. Participants will have products
that are or will be produced in the
United States along the hydrogen value
chain.
DATES:
Event: The roundtable will be held in
a virtual format on June 29, 2023 from
1 p.m. to 4 p.m., eastern daylight time.
Event Registration: ITA will evaluate
registrations based on the submitted
information (see below) and inform
applicants of selection decisions, which
will be made on a rolling basis until 25
participants have been selected.
ADDRESSES: Event: The roundtable will
be held via WebEx and the link for the
meeting will be provided to registered
participants.

Trade Specialist, at
Hydrogen.Economy@trade.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
International Renewable Energy Agency
(IRENA) estimates that, as of 2021, only
1% of global hydrogen output was
produced with low greenhouse gas
emission methods. To meet the most
ambitious climate goals, including those
set forth in Executive Order 14008
(‘‘Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home
and Abroad,’’ January 27, 2021), the use
of renewable and low carbon hydrogen
would need to scale dramatically. The
United States holds several unique
advantages that give it the potential to
become a powerhouse in the global
hydrogen industry, with domestic
hydrogen deployment already expected
to grow substantially. Despite this
strong domestic capacity for hydrogen
production, U.S. firms may face export
competitive challenges and market
access issues. The Hydrogen Council’s
October 2022 report, Global Hydrogen
Flows, draws attention to the need for
‘‘development of mutually recognized
robust and tradeable certification
schemes for hydrogen.’’
ITA seeks individual company input
and views at the June 29, 2023
roundtable regarding the hydrogen
industry value chain, including on the
following topics:
• The current state of upstream
manufacturing for hydrogen in the
SUMMARY:

United States, including electrolyzers,
fuel cells, compressors, storage tanks,
and other related and enabling
equipment;
• Supply chain constraints, including
with respect to platinum group metals
or interconnection with the electrical
grid;
• The potential contribution of U.S.
hydrogen producers towards the Biden
Administration’s overarching clean
energy goals as set out in Executive
Order 14008 ‘‘Tackling the Climate
Crisis at Home and Abroad’’ (January
27, 2021);
• Challenges facing the hydrogen
industry, including those that may
inhibit the export competitiveness of
products derived by the U.S. hydrogen
industry value chain;
• How to help ensure that the build
out of the hydrogen economy, with an
emphasis on hydrogen production,
proceeds apace while mitigating carbon
emissions; and
• Company expectations on industry
readiness for exports, including any
potential challenges or obstacles.
The event is closed to press and
public. Industry participation is limited
to 25 qualifying company
representatives. Officials from the
Department of Energy, Department of
State, and other relevant agencies will
also be invited to participate in the
discussion.
Selection
Company representatives interested in
applying to attend the roundtable
should submit the below information to
Hydrogen.Economy@trade.gov by no
later than June 23, 2023. ITA will
evaluate applications based on the
submitted information (and based on
the criteria below) on a rolling basis
until 25 participants have been selected
and inform applicants of selection
decisions.
Participants should be at a sufficiently
senior level to be knowledgeable about
their company’s capabilities, interests,
growth objectives, and challenges with
respect to production of clean hydrogen
within the U.S. hydrogen value chain.
Each selected participant may invite one
additional person from their company
as a non-participating observer. This
will be administered by reaching out
before the roundtable using provided
contact information to request
participants submit information about
their observer.
Applicants should include the
following information in their request to
attend the roundtable:
• Name of proposed attendee and
short bio;
E:\FR\FM\13JNN1.SGM
13JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 113 / Tuesday, June 13, 2023 / Notices
• Name of company and brief
company description; and
• A statement self-certifying the
following criteria:
1. The company is not majority
owned by a foreign government entity
(or entities).
2. The company is an existing
manufacturer, provider of services, or
prospective market entrant with
products or services that are or will be
produced in the United States.
3. The representative will be able to
attend the entire roundtable.
Selection will be based on the
following criteria:
• Suitability of company’s products
and service offerings in the existing
hydrogen industry value chain;
• Suitability of the company’s
experience in manufacturing in the
United States;
• Suitability, based on the
representative’s position and biography,
to be able to meaningfully engage in the
conversation; and
• Ability of the company to
contribute to the roundtable’s purpose
of seeking individual input and views
on the United States hydrogen industry
value chain.
Consideration will also be given to
whether an applicant company may
have conflicting interests or whether its
selection could hinder the overall
effectiveness of the roundtable.

pipe) from Japan and Romania would
likely lead to the continuation or
recurrence of dumping and material
injury to an industry in the United
States, Commerce is publishing a notice
of continuation of these AD orders.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 26 and August 10, 2000,
respectively, Commerce published in
the Federal Register the AD orders on
small diameter pipe from Japan and
Romania.1 On October 3, 2022, the ITC
instituted 2 and Commerce initiated 3
the fourth sunset reviews of the Orders,
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As
a result of its reviews, Commerce
determined that revocation of the
Orders would likely lead to the
continuation or recurrence of dumping,
and therefore, notified the ITC of the
magnitude of the margins of dumping
likely to prevail should the Orders to be
revoked.4
On June 6, 2023, the ITC published its
determination, pursuant to sections
751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that
revocation of the Orders would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time.5

Specifications, Characteristics, and
Uses: seamless pressure pipes are
intended for the conveyance of water,
steam, petrochemicals, chemicals, oil
products, natural gas and other liquids
and gasses in industrial piping systems.
They may carry these substances at
elevated pressures and temperatures
and may be subject to the application of
external heat. Seamless carbon steel
pressure pipe meeting the ASTM A–106
standard may be used in temperatures of
up to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, at
various ASME code stress levels. Alloy
pipes made to ASTM A–335 standard
must be used if temperatures and stress
levels exceed those allowed for ASTM
A–106. Seamless pressure pipes sold in
the United States are commonly
produced to the ASTM A–106 standard.
Determination, 88 FR 37096 (June 6, 2023) (ITC
Final Determination).
