In response to a request by interested parties, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain welded carbon steel pipe and tube (``welded pipe and tube'') from Turkey. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 74 FR 30052 (June 24, 2009) (``Review Initiation''). This review covers the Borusan Group\1\ (collectively ``Borusan''), Tubeco Pipe and Steel Corporation, Toscelik,\2\ Erbosan, Erciyas Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (``Erbosan''), and the Yucel Group companies.\3\ We preliminarily determine that Borusan and Toscelik made sales below normal value (``NV''). If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties based on the difference between the export price (``EP'') and the NV. The Yucel Group companies reported that they had no shipments to the United States during the POR. The preliminary results are listed below in the section titled ``Preliminary Results of Review.''
