SUMMARY: On July 29, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) published the initiation and preliminary results of the changed circumstances review (CCR) of the antidumping duty (AD) order on circular welded carbonquality steel pipe (CWP) from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). For these final results, Commerce continues to find that Universal Tube and Pipe Industries FZE (Universal Tube and Pipe), is the successor-in-interest to Universal Tube and Plastic Industries Limited (UTP). Additionally, we determine that Universal Tube and Pipe should be assigned UTP’s cash deposit rate for purposes of the AD order. DATES: Applicable September 17, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Background On July 29, 2024, Commerce published the initiation and preliminary results of this expedited CCR, finding that Universal Tube and Pipe is the successor-in-interest to UTP, and should be assigned the same AD cash deposit rate assigned to UTP in the AD order on CWP from the UAE and provided all interested parties with an opportunity to comment.1 No interested party 1 See Circular Welded Carbon-Quality Steel Pipe from the United Arab Emirates: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:12 Sep 16, 2024 Jkt 262001 For the reasons stated in the Initiation and Preliminary Results, and because we received no comments from interested parties to the contrary, Commerce continues to find Universal Tube and Pipe is the successor-ininterest to UTP for purposes of the AD order on CWP from the UAE. As a result of this determination and consistent with our practice, we find that Universal Tube and Pipe should receive the AD cash deposit rate previously assigned to UTP with respect to entries of subject merchandise in the abovenoted proceeding. As there are no changes from the Initiation and Preliminary Results, there is no decision memorandum accompanying this notice and we are adopting the determination in the Initiation and Preliminary Results as the final results of this CCR. Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced or exported by Universal Tube and Pipe and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the Federal Register at 1.00 percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate for UTP.2 These cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 13, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) 
initiated a less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation of imports of 
certain alkyl phosphate esters from the People's Republic of China.\1\ 
On July 22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this 
administrative proceeding by seven days.\2\ Currently, the preliminary 
determination is due no later than October 7, 2024.

    \1\ See Certain Alkyl Phosphate Esters from the People's 
Republic of China: Initiation of Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigation:

Postponement of Preliminary Determination

    Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires

[[Page 76088]]

Commerce to issue the preliminary determination in an LTFV 
investigation within 140 days after the date on which Commerce 
initiated the investigation. However, section 733(c)(1) of the Act 
permits Commerce to postpone the preliminary determination until no 
later than 190 days after the date on which Commerce initiated the 
investigation if: (A) the petitioner makes a timely request for a 
postponement; or (B) Commerce concludes that the parties concerned are 
cooperating, that the investigation is extraordinarily complicated, and 
that additional time is necessary to make a preliminary determination. 
Under 19 CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a request for 
postponement 25 days or more before the scheduled date of the 
preliminary determination and must state the reasons for the request. 
Commerce will grant the request unless it finds compelling reasons to 
deny the request.
    On September 6, 2024, the petitioner \3\ submitted a timely request 
that Commerce postpone the preliminary determination in the LTFV 
investigation.\4\ The petitioner stated that it requested postponement 
due to the ``size and complexity of the investigation.'' \5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The petitioner is ICL-IP America, Inc.
    \4\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Request to Extend Antidumping 
Preliminary Determination,'' dated September 6, 2024.
    \5\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the reason stated above and because there are no compelling 
reasons to deny the request, Commerce, in accordance with section 
733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, is postponing the deadline for the preliminary 
determination by 50 days (i.e., 190 days after the date on which this 
investigation was initiated). As a result, Commerce will issue its 
preliminary determination no later than November 26, 2024. In 
accordance with section 735(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), 
the deadline for the final determination of this investigation will 
continue to be 75 days after the date of the preliminary determination, 
unless postponed at a later date.
    This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

    Dated: September 11, 2024.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the 
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for
