Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and
the comments received from interested
parties regarding the Preliminary
Results, and for the reasons explained in
the Issues and Decision Memorandum,
we made certain changes to the
weighted-average dumping margin
calculation for CPW for the final results
of review.10
Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, we
determine that the following weightedaverage dumping margin exists for the
period May 1, 2021, through April 30,
2022:
Producer/exporter
Corinth Pipeworks Pipe Industry
S.A ..........................................
Weightedaverage
dumping
margin
(percent)

Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose the
calculations performed in connection
with these final results of review to
interested parties 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.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we
calculated importer-specific ad valorem
duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for each importer’s examined
sales and the total entered value of those
sales. Where either the respondent’s
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis, within the meaning
of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importerspecific assessment rate is de minimis
(i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will
instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate
entries without regard to antidumping
duties.
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by CPW 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 10.26
percent ad valorem,11 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 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) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for CPW will be zero,
as established in these 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 10.26 percent, the
all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation for this proceeding.12
These cash deposit requirements, when
imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.

Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, we determine that the following
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2021,
through April 30, 2022:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Producer/exporter dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed in
connection with these final results of review to interested parties
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.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-specific
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount
of dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total
entered value of those sales. Where either the respondent's weighted-
average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, within the meaning of 19
CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific assessment rate is de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), we will instruct CBP to
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by CPW
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 10.26 percent ad valorem,\11\ if there is no rate for
the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order, 84 FR at 18769.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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) of the
Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for CPW will be zero, as established in
these 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 10.26 percent, the
all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation for this
proceeding.\12\ 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
[[Page 88575]]
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 doubled
antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the 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/destruction
of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: December 15, 2023.
Abdelali Elouaradia,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
