As a result of its review, Commerce determined that revocation of the CVD Order would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of countervailable subsidies and notified the ITC of the magnitude of the subsidy rates likely to prevail were the order revoked,4 and Commerce determined that revocation of the AD Order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping, and therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping rates likely to prevail should the Order be revoked.5 On December 17, 2024, the ITC published its determination, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.6 Scope of the Orders The merchandise subject of these Orders are certain welded carbon quality steel pipes and tubes.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 10, 2022, Commerce published its Final Results in the 
2019-2020 AD administrative review of TRBs from China.\1\ Commerce 
calculated a weighted-average dumping margin of 538.79 percent for 
Tainai, Xintai, and Xintianlong.\2\

Unfinished, from the People's Republic of China: Final Results and

2022) (Final Results), and accompanying Issues and Decision 
Memorandum.

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

    Tainai appealed Commerce's Final Results. On September 14, 2023, 
the CIT remanded the Final Results to Commerce to (1) consider record 
evidence regarding the control that Tainai could have exerted over 
unaffiliated suppliers and (2) why the revenue of section 301 duties is 
related to profits on the sale of services rather than on the sale of 
subject merchandise.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Shanghai Tainai Bearing Co., Ltd. v. United States, 658 
F.Supp. 3d 1269 (CIT 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the Final Redetermination, issued in January 2024, Commerce, 
under respectful protest, recalculated Tainai's weighted-average 
dumping margin without adverse facts available in connection with 
Tainai's unaffiliated suppliers' failure to report factors of 
production (FOP) information but

relying on partial neutral facts available to fill in the missing FOP 
information.\4\ Commerce also modified its calculation for certain 
invoices regarding section 301 duties.\5\ On December 18, 2024, the CIT 
sustained Commerce's Final Redetermination.\6\

Remand, Shanghai Tainai Bearing Co., Ltd., et al. v. United States,

Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken,\7\ as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,\8\ 
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant 
to sections 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), Commerce must publish a notice of court decision that is not ``in 
harmony'' with a Commerce determination and suspend liquidation of 
entries pending a ``conclusive'' court decision. The CIT's December 18, 
2024, judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not in 
harmony with Commerce's Final Results. Thus, this notice is published 
in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken.

1374 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (Diamond Sawblades).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amended Final Results

    Because there is now a final court judgment, Commerce is amending 
its Final Results with respect to Tainai and the margin for non-
selected companies as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Weighted-

                    Producer/exporter                     dumping margin
                                                             (percent)

Hebei Xintai Bearing Forging Co., Ltd...................           76.58
Xinchang Newsun Xintianlong Precision Bearing                      76.58
 Manufacturing Co., Ltd.................................
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Because Tainai has a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there 
have been final results published in a subsequent administrative 
review, we will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This notice will not affect the 
current cash deposit rate.
    With respect to all the non-selected companies that do not have a 
superseding cash deposit rate, Commerce will issue revised cash deposit 
instructions to CBP.

Liquidation of Suspended Entries

    At this time, Commerce remains enjoined by CIT order from 
liquidating entries that: were exported by Tainai, Xintai, or 
Xintianlong, and were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for 
consumption during the period June 1, 2019, through May 31, 2020. These 
entries will remain enjoined pursuant to the terms of the injunction 
during the pendency of any appeals process.
    In the event the CIT's ruling is not appealed, or, if appealed, 
upheld by a final and conclusive court decision, Commerce intends to 
instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on unliquidated entries of 
subject merchandise exported by Tainai, Xintai, or Xintianlong, in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b), at the rates identified above.

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
516A(c) and (e), and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
