In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at https://access.trade/gov/ public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on our analysis of the comments received from interested parties, Commerce has made no changes to the margin calculations for MAL. Final Results of Review We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period May 1, 2022, through April 30, 2022. Exporter/producer Weightaverage dumping margin (percent) Maithan Alloys Limited ............... 1.01 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Disclosure We have not made changes to the margin calculations for MAL in these final results of review. Consequently, there are no new calculations to disclose in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b) for these final results of review. Assessment Rates Commerce has determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in this review, in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of these final results 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). Consistent with Commerce’s clarification of its assessment practice, for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the abovereferenced respondent for which they did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation of 17.74 percent ad valorem if there is no rate for the intermediate VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:50 Dec 07, 2023 Jkt 262001 company(ies) involved in the transaction.3 Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results of this administrative review as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the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 company listed above will be equal to the weightedaverage dumping margin established in the final results of the review; (2) for subject merchandise exported by a company not covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the companyspecific rate published in the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review or the original LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most recent period for the producer of the subject merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 17.74 percent ad valorem, the allothers rate established in the LTFV investigation. 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 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. Administrative Protective Orders This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 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.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and the comments received from interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, and for the reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we made certain changes to the weighted-average dumping margin calculations for Toyo Kohan for the final results of review.8 Final Results of Review We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2021, through April 30, 2022: Producer/exporter Weightedaverage dumping margin (percent) Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd .................. 0.92 Disclosure We intend to disclose the calculations performed in connection with these final results of review to interested parties in this proceeding within five days after public announcement of the final results or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice of final results 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. For Toyo Kohan, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of dumping calculated for each importer’s examined sales and the total entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). Where an importerspecific assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the entries by that importer will be liquidated without regard to antidumping duties. For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Toyo Kohan for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate established in the less-thanfair-value (LTFV) investigation of 45.42 percent ad valorem,9 if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. 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 Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of nickel-plated steel products entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as provided by section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rates for the company subject to this review will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of the review; (2) for merchandise exported by producers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published in the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation but the producer has been covered in a prior completed segment of this proceeding, then the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most recent period for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 45.42 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation for this proceeding.10 These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

The sole respondent in this administrative review is Borusan Mannesmann Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (Borusan Mannesmann) and Borusan Istikbal Ticaret T.A.S. (Istikbal) (collectively, Borusan).2 On July 7, 2023, Borusan submitted a case brief.3 On July 14, 2023, Wheatland Tube Company (Wheatland), a domestic producer and interested party, submitted a rebuttal brief.4 On September 6, 2023, Commerce extended the deadline for the final results by 57 days to December 1, 2023.5 Commerce conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). On October 12, 2022, Nucor Tubular Products Inc. (Nucor), a petitioner in this proceeding, withdrew its request for an administrative review with respect to every company except Borusan.6 With respect to Istikbal, one of the companies which claimed no shipments during the POR, we continue 7 to find it to be part of the single entity, Borusan, and we find no record evidence that warrants altering this treatment. Further, no party presented comments addressing this issue in their case briefs. Therefore, because we find that Borusan had shipments during this POR, we have not made a determination of no shipments with respect to Istikbal and the withdrawal of request for review is moot.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

    Based on a review of the record and the comments received from 
interested parties regarding our Preliminary Results, and for the 
reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we made 
certain changes to the weighted-average dumping margin calculations for 
Toyo Kohan for the final results of review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Issues and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Final Results of Review
    We determine that the following weighted-average dumping margin 
exists for the period May 1, 2021, through April 30, 2022:

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

                                                              (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd........................................        0.92
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure

    We intend to disclose the calculations performed in connection with 
these final results of review to interested parties in this proceeding 
within five days after public announcement of the final results or, if 
there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of 
publication of the notice of final results 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.
    For Toyo Kohan, we calculated importer-specific ad valorem duty 
assessment rates on the basis of the ratio of the total amount of 
dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total 
entered value of those sales in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). 
Where an importer-specific assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less 
than 0.5 percent), the entries by that importer will be liquidated 
without regard to antidumping duties.
    For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Toyo 
Kohan for which it did not know that its merchandise was destined for 
the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries 
at the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV) 
investigation of 45.42 percent ad valorem,\9\ if there is no rate for 
the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Order, 79 FR at 30816.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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

    Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the 
following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments 
of nickel-plated steel products entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the date of publication as provided by 
section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rates for the 
company subject to this review will be equal to the weighted-average 
dumping margin established in the final results of the review; (2) for 
merchandise exported by producers or exporters not covered in this 
review but covered in a prior completed segment of the proceeding, the 
cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate 
published in the completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if 
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or 
the original LTFV investigation but the producer has been covered in a 
prior completed segment of this proceeding, then the cash deposit rate 
will be the rate established in the completed segment for the most 
recent period for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash 
deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 
45.42 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV 
investigation for this proceeding.\10\ These cash deposit requirements, 
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
