khammond on DSK9W7S144PROD with NOTICES
conducted this administrative review in
accordance with section 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order 2
The merchandise covered by the
Order is carbon and alloy forged steel
fittings, whether unfinished (commonly
known as blanks or rough forgings) or
finished. Such fittings are made in a
variety of shapes including, but not
limited to, elbows, tees, crosses, laterals,
couplings, reducers, caps, plugs,
bushings, unions, and outlets. Forged
steel fittings are covered regardless of
end finish, whether threaded, socketweld or other end connections.
While these fittings are generally
manufactured to specifications ASME
B16.11, MSS SP–79, MSS SP–83, MSS
SP–97, ASTM A105, ASTM A350 and
ASTM A182, the scope is not limited to
fittings made to these specifications.
The term forged is an industry term
used to describe a class of products
included in applicable standards, and
does not reference an exclusive
manufacturing process. Forged steel
fittings are not manufactured from
casting. Pursuant to the applicable
specifications, subject fittings may also
be machined from bar stock or
machined from seamless pipe and tube.
All types of fittings are included in
the scope regardless of nominal pipe
size (which may or may not be
expressed in inches of nominal pipe
size), pressure rating (usually, but not
necessarily expressed in pounds of
pressure/PSI, e.g., 2,000 or 2M; 3,000 or
3M; 6,000 or 6M; 9,000 or 9M), wall
thickness, and whether or not heat
treated. Excluded from this scope are all
fittings entirely made of stainless steel.
Also excluded are flanges, butt weld
fittings, butt weld outlets, nipples, and
all fittings that have a maximum
pressure rating of 300 pounds of
pressure/PSI or less. Also excluded are
fittings certified or made to the
following standards, so long as the
fittings are not also manufactured to the
specifications of ASME B16.11, MSS
SP–79, MSS SP–83, MSS SP–97, ASTM
A105, ASTM A350, and ASTM A182:
• American Petroleum Institute (API)
5CT, API 5L, or API 11B
• Society of Automotive Engineering
(SAE) J476, SAE J514, SAE J516, SAE
J517, SAE J518, SAE J1026, SAE
J1231, SAE J1453, SAE J1926, J2044,
or SAE AS 35411
• Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL)
certified electrical conduit fittings
• ASTM A153, A536, A576, or A865

• Casing Conductor Connectors 16–42
inches in diameter made to
proprietary specifications
• Military Specification (MIL) MIL–C–
4109F and MIL–F–3541
• International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) ISO6150–B
To be excluded from the scope,
products must have the appropriate
standard or pressure markings and/or be
accompanied by documentation
showing product compliance to the
applicable standard or pressure, e.g.,
‘‘API 5CT’’ mark and/or a mill
certification report. Subject carbon and
alloy forged steel fittings are normally
entered under Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
subheadings 7307.99.1000,
7307.99.3000, 7307.99.5045, and
7307.99.5060. They also may be entered
under HTSUS subheadings
7307.92.3010, 7307.92.3030,
7307.92.9000, and 7326.19.0010. The
HTSUS subheadings and specifications
are provided for convenience and
customs purposes; the written
description of the scope is dispositive.
Final Results of Review
In the Preliminary Results, Commerce
preliminarily determined that Jiangsu
Forged and Yingkou Guangming had not
established their eligibility for a
separate rate.3 As such, we
preliminarily determined that Jiangsu
Forged and Yingkou Guangming were
part of the China-wide entity.4 Because
we received no comments, we made no
changes from the Preliminary Results
and we continue to find that Jiangsu
Forged and Yingkou Guangming are part
of the China-wide entity.
Commerce’s policy regarding
conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative
review.5 Under this policy, the Chinawide entity will not be under review
unless a party specifically requests and
Commerce initiates, or Commerce selfinitiates, a review of the China-wide
entity.6 Because no party requested a
review of the China-wide entity and
Commerce did not self-initiate a review
of the China-wide entity for this review
period, the China-wide entity is not
under review and the China-wide
entity’s rate (i.e., 142.72 percent 7) is not
subject to change.

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to
interested parties the calculations of the
final results of an administrative review
within five days of a 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 made no changes
from the Preliminary Results, there are
no calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce
has determined, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess,
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by 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).
We will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review, when the
company-specific weighted-average
dumping margin is not zero or de
minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent), or
when the importer-specific assessment
rate calculated in the final results of this
review is not zero or de minimis. 8
Because Commerce finds both
companies are part of the China-wide
entity in the final results, Commerce
will instruct CBP to apply an ad
valorem assessment rate of 142.72
percent to all entries of subject
merchandise during the POR which
were exported by the China-wide entity,
which includes Jiangsu Forged and
Yingkou Guangming.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this
administrative review for shipments of
the subject merchandise from China
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) for previously
examined Chinese and non-Chinese
exporters for which a review was not
requested and that received a separate
rate in a prior segment of this

19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
10DEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 237 / Tuesday, December 10, 2024 / Notices
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the existing exporterspecific rate; (2) for all Chinese
exporters of subject merchandise that
have not been found to be entitled to a
separate rate, the cash deposit rate will
be the rate for the China-wide entity
(i.e., 142.72 percent); and (3) for all nonChinese exporters of subject
merchandise which have not received
their own separate rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to the
Chinese exporter that supplied that nonChinese exporter. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 POR. 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 the countervailing duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to an 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. 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
violation subject to sanction.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on our analysis of comments
from interested parties, we made certain
changes to Shri Sumati Industries
Private Limited’s countervailable
subsidy rate calculations from the
Preliminary Results. For a full
description of these changes, see the
Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this
administrative review in accordance
with section 751(a)(l)(A) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For
each of the subsidy programs found to
be countervailable, we determine that
there is a subsidy, i.e., a financial
contribution by an ‘‘authority’’ that
gives rise to a benefit to the recipient,
and that the subsidy is specific.6 For a
full description of the methodology
underlying our conclusions, including
our reliance on facts available with
adverse inferences, pursuant to sections
776(a) and (b) of the Act, see the Issues
and Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of Review
As a result of this review, Commerce
determines the following net
countervailable subsidy rates exist for
the period September 3, 2021, through
December 31, 2022:
6 See sections 771(5)(B) and (D) of the Act
regarding financial contribution; section 771(5)(E)
of the Act regarding benefit; and section 771(5A) of

Final Results of Review
In the Preliminary Results, Commerce preliminarily determined that
Jiangsu Forged and Yingkou Guangming had not established their
eligibility for a separate rate.\3\ As such, we preliminarily
determined that Jiangsu Forged and Yingkou Guangming were part of the
China-wide entity.\4\ Because we received no comments, we made no
changes from the Preliminary Results and we continue to find that
Jiangsu Forged and Yingkou Guangming are part of the China-wide entity.

Commerce's policy regarding conditional review of the China-wide
entity applies to this administrative review.\5\ Under this policy, the
China-wide entity will not be under review unless a party specifically
requests and Commerce initiates, or Commerce self-initiates, a review
of the China-wide entity.\6\ Because no party requested a review of the
China-wide entity and Commerce did not self-initiate a review of the
China-wide entity for this review period, the China-wide entity is not
under review and the China-wide entity's rate (i.e., 142.72 percent
\7\) is not subject to change.

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations
of the final results of an administrative review within five days of a
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 made no changes from the Preliminary Results, there are no
calculations to disclose.
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b),
Commerce has determined, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by
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).
We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review, when the company-specific
weighted-average dumping margin is not zero or de minimis (i.e., less
than 0.50 percent), or when the importer-specific assessment rate
calculated in the final results of this review is not zero or de
minimis. \8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because Commerce finds both companies are part of the China-wide
entity in the final results, Commerce will instruct CBP to apply an ad
valorem assessment rate of 142.72 percent to all entries of subject
merchandise during the POR which were exported by the China-wide
entity, which includes Jiangsu Forged and Yingkou Guangming.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of the final results of this administrative review for
shipments of the subject merchandise from China 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) for previously
examined Chinese and non-Chinese exporters for which a review was not
requested and that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this
[[Page 99223]]
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing
exporter-specific rate; (2) for all Chinese exporters of subject
merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be the rate for the China-wide entity (i.e.,
142.72 percent); and (3) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject
merchandise which have not received their own separate rate, the cash
deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Chinese exporter that
supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These cash deposit requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice also 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 POR. 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 the
countervailing duties.
Administrative Protective Order (APO)
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 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. 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 violation
subject to sanction.
Notification to Interested Parties
These final results and notice are issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR
351.213(h) and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).
Dated: December 4, 2024.
