SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:24 Aug 19, 2024 Jkt 262001 Background On June 6, 2024, Commerce published the Preliminary Results and invited comments from interested parties.1 No interested party submitted comments on the Preliminary Results. Accordingly, the final results remain unchanged from the Preliminary Results, and thus, there is no decision memorandum accompanying this notice. On July 22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this administrative proceeding by seven days.2 The deadline for these final results is now October 11, 2024. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Scope of the Order 3 The merchandise covered by the Order is welded pipe from Türkiye. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the Preliminary Results. Rate for Company Not Selected for Individual Examination The Act and Commerce’s regulations do not address the rate to be applied to companies not selected for individual examination when Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in a less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for companies which were not selected for individual examination in an administrative review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally ‘‘an amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weightedaverage dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually investigated, excluding any margins that are zero, de minimis (i.e., 1 See Large Diameter Welded Pipe from the Republic of Türkiye: Preliminary Results and Rescission, in Part, of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2022–2023, 89 FR 48386 (June 6, 2024) (Preliminary Results), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM). 2 See Memorandum, ‘‘Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings,’’ dated July 22, 2024. 3 See Large Diameter Welded Pipe from the Republic of Turkey: Amended Final Affirmative Antidumping Duty Determination and Antidumping Duty Order, 84 FR 18799 (May 2, 2019); and Large Diameter Welded Pipe from the Republic of Turkey: Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony With Amended Final Determination in the Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigation; Notice of Amended Final Determination Pursuant to Court Decision; and Notice of Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order, in Part, 85 FR 35262 (June 9, 2020) (Amended Final Determination) (collectively, Order).

(Emek Boru), the company not selected for individual examination in this review, in accordance with section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. Final Results of Review For these final results, we determine that the following estimated weightedaverage dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2022, through April 30, 2023: Producer/exporter HDM Celik Boru Sanyai Ve Ticaret A.S.5 ..........................

However, because we have made no changes from the Preliminary Results, there are no new calculations to disclose. Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 4 We note that we also continue to assign HDM’s weighted-average dumping margin to Cimtas Boru Imalatlari ve Ticaret, Ltd. (Cimtas) pursuant to section 772(e) of the Act. For further discussion, see the Preliminary Results PDM at 4–5. 5 Commerce initiated this review on both HDM and HDM Spiral Kaynakli Celik Boru A.S.

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). Commerce calculated a weightedaverage dumping margin for HDM of zero percent in this review. Accordingly, we intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by HDM for which HDM did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate in the Amended Final Determination of the LTFV investigation (i.e., 1.57 percent),6 if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.7 For both Cimtas and Emek Boru, the company that was not selected for individual examination in this review, we have assigned them the weightedaverage dumping margin calculated for HDM (i.e., zero percent). Accordingly, we will instruct CBP to liquidate suspended entries during the POR for these companies without regard to antidumping duties. Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication in the Federal Register of these final results of administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for the companies listed above will be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in these final results of this administrative review; (2) for previously investigated or reviewed companies not covered in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the companyspecific 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 the LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be the cash deposit rate established for the most recently completed segment for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers and exporters will continue to be 1.57 percent, the all-others rate established in the Amended Final Determination.8 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 and/or countervailing 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 and/or countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the amount of countervailing duties.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 6, 2024, Commerce published the Preliminary Results and 
invited comments from interested parties.\1\ No interested party 
submitted comments on the Preliminary Results. Accordingly, the final 
results remain unchanged from the Preliminary Results, and thus, there 
is no decision memorandum accompanying this notice. On July 22, 2024, 
Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this administrative proceeding by 
seven days.\2\ The deadline for these final results is now October 11, 
2024. Commerce conducted this administrative review in accordance with 
section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

    The merchandise covered by the Order is welded pipe from 
T[uuml]rkiye. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see 
the Preliminary Results.

Rate for Company Not Selected for Individual Examination

    The Act and Commerce's regulations do not address the rate to be 
applied to companies not selected for individual examination when 
Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to 
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 
735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the 
all-others rate in a less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation, for 
guidance when calculating the rate for companies which were not 
selected for individual examination in an administrative review. Under 
section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, the all-others rate is normally ``an 
amount equal to the weighted average of the estimated weighted-average 
dumping margins established for exporters and producers individually 
investigated, excluding any margins that are zero, de minimis (i.e., 
less than 0.5 percent), or determined entirely on the basis of facts 
available.''
    Where the weighted-average dumping margins for individually 
examined respondents are zero, de minimis, or determined based entirely 
on facts available, section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act provides that 
Commerce may use ``any reasonable method to establish the estimated 
all-others rate for exporters and producers not individually 
investigated . . . .'' For these final results, we continue to 
calculate a weighted-average dumping margin of zero percent for HDM 
Celik Boru Sanyai Ve Ticaret A.S (HDM).\4\ Therefore, consistent with 
our practice, we assigned a rate of zero percent to Emek Boru Makine 
Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (Emek Boru), the company not selected for 
individual examination in this review, in accordance with section 
735(c)(5)(B) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ We note that we also continue to assign HDM's weighted-
average dumping margin to Cimtas Boru Imalatlari ve Ticaret, Ltd. 
(Cimtas) pursuant to section 772(e) of the Act. For further 
discussion, see the Preliminary Results PDM at 4-5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    For these final results, we determine that the following estimated 
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the period May 1, 2022, 
through April 30, 2023:

Disclosure

    Normally, Commerce will disclose to the parties in a proceeding the 
calculations performed in connection with the final results of review 
within five days of any public announcement 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). However, because we have made no changes from the 
Preliminary Results, there are no new calculations to disclose.

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1),

[[Page 67417]]

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. 
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).
    Commerce calculated a weighted-average dumping margin for HDM of 
zero percent in this review. Accordingly, we intend to instruct CBP to 
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. 
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by HDM for 
which HDM did not know its merchandise was destined for the United 
States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the 
all-others rate in the Amended Final Determination of the LTFV 
investigation (i.e., 1.57 percent),\6\ if there is no rate for the 
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Amended Final Determination, 85 FR at 35263.
    \7\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For both Cimtas and Emek Boru, the company that was not selected 
for individual examination in this review, we have assigned them the 
weighted-average dumping margin calculated for HDM (i.e., zero 
percent). Accordingly, we will instruct CBP to liquidate suspended 
entries during the POR for these companies without regard to 
antidumping duties.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication in the Federal Register of these final results of 
administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise 
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the 
publication date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) 
the cash deposit rate for the companies listed above will be equal to 
the weighted-average dumping margin established in these final results 
of this administrative review; (2) for previously investigated or 
reviewed companies not covered in this review, 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 the LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the cash deposit 
rate will be the cash deposit rate established for the most recently 
completed segment for the producer of the subject merchandise; and (4) 
the cash deposit rate for all other producers and exporters will 
continue to be 1.57 percent, the all-others rate established in the 
Amended Final Determination.\8\ These cash deposit requirements, when 
imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Amended Final Determination, 85 FR at 35263.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 and/or countervailing 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 and/or countervailing 
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping 
duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the 
amount of countervailing 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 terms of an APO 
is a sanctionable violation.

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).
