Countervailing Duty Administrative

Reviews

AGENCY

: Enforcement and Compliance,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY

: The Department of Commerce

(Commerce) has received requests to

conduct administrative reviews of

various antidumping duty (AD) and

countervailing duty (CVD) orders and

findings with October anniversary dates.

In accordance with Commerce’s

regulations, we are initiating those

administrative reviews.

DATES

: Applicable December 8, 2020.

Brenda E. Brown, AD/CVD Operations,

Customs Liaison Unit, Enforcement and

Compliance, International Trade

Administration, U.S. Department of

Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue

(202) 482–4735.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

:

Background

Commerce has received timely

requests, in accordance with 19 CFR

351.213(b), for administrative reviews of

various AD and CVD orders and

findings with October anniversary dates.

All deadlines for the submission of

various types of information,

certifications, or comments or actions by

Commerce discussed below refer to the

number of calendar days from the

applicable starting time.

Notice of No Sales

If a producer or exporter named in

this notice of initiation had no exports,

sales, or entries during the period of

review (POR), it must notify Commerce

within 30 days of publication of this

notice in the Federal Register. All

submissions must be filed electronically

at https://access.trade.gov in accordance

with 19 CFR 351.303.

1

Such

submissions are subject to verification

in accordance with section 782(i) of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Further, in accordance with 19 CFR

351.303(f)(1)(i), a copy must be served

on every party on Commerce’s service

list.

Respondent Selection

In the event Commerce limits the

number of respondents for individual

examination for administrative reviews

initiated pursuant to requests made for

the orders identified below, Commerce

intends to select respondents based on

U.S. Customs and Border Protection

(CBP) data for U.S. imports during the

POR. We intend to place the CBP data

on the record within five days of

publication of the initiation notice and

to make our decision regarding

respondent selection within 30 days of

publication of the initiation Federal

Register notice. Comments regarding the

CBP data and respondent selection

should be submitted within seven days

after the placement of the CBP data on

the record of this review. Parties

wishing to submit rebuttal comments

should submit those comments within

five days after the deadline for the

initial comments.

In the event Commerce decides it is

necessary to limit individual

examination of respondents and

conduct respondent selection under

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act, the

following guidelines regarding

collapsing of companies for purposes of

respondent selection will apply. In

general, Commerce has found that

determinations concerning whether

particular companies should be

‘‘collapsed’’ (e.g., treated as a single

entity for purposes of calculating

antidumping duty rates) require a

substantial amount of detailed

information and analysis, which often

require follow-up questions and

analysis. Accordingly, Commerce will

not conduct collapsing analyses at the

respondent selection phase of this

review and will not collapse companies

at the respondent selection phase unless

there has been a determination to

collapse certain companies in a

previous segment of this AD proceeding

(e.g., investigation, administrative

review, new shipper review, or changed

circumstances review). For any

company subject to this review, if

Commerce determined, or continued to

treat, that company as collapsed with

others, Commerce will assume that such

companies continue to operate in the

same manner and will collapse them for

respondent selection purposes.

Otherwise, Commerce will not collapse

companies for purposes of respondent

selection. Parties are requested to (a)

identify which companies subject to

review previously were collapsed, and

(b) provide a citation to the proceeding

in which they were collapsed. Further,

if companies are requested to complete

the Quantity and Value (Q&V)

Questionnaire for purposes of

respondent selection, in general, each

company must report volume and value

data separately for itself. Parties should

not include data for any other party,

even if they believe they should be

treated as a single entity with that other

party. If a company was collapsed with

another company or companies in the

most recently completed segment of this

proceeding where Commerce

considered collapsing that entity,

complete Q&V data for that collapsed

entity must be submitted.

Deadline for Withdrawal of Request for

Administrative Review

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), a

party that has requested a review may

withdraw that request within 90 days of

the date of publication of the notice of

initiation of the requested review. The

regulation provides that Commerce may

extend this time if it is reasonable to do

so. Determinations by Commerce to

extend the 90-day deadline will be

made on a case-by-case basis.

Deadline for Particular Market

Situation Allegation

Section 504 of the Trade Preferences

Extension Act of 2015 amended the Act

by adding the concept of a particular

market situation (PMS) for purposes of

constructed value under section 773(e)

of the Act.

2

Section 773(e) of the Act

states that ‘‘if a particular market

situation exists such that the cost of

materials and fabrication or other

processing of any kind does not

accurately reflect the cost of production

in the ordinary course of trade, the

administering authority may use

another calculation methodology under

this subtitle or any other calculation

methodology.’’ When an interested

party submits a PMS allegation pursuant

to section 773(e) of the Act, Commerce

will respond to such a submission

consistent with 19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v).

3

Such entities include entities that have not

participated in the proceeding, entities that were

preliminarily granted a separate rate in any

currently incomplete segment of the proceeding

(e.g., an ongoing administrative review, new

shipper review, etc.) and entities that lost their

separate rate in the most recently completed

segment of the proceeding in which they

participated.

4

Only changes to the official company name,

rather than trade names, need to be addressed via

a Separate Rate Application. Information regarding

new trade names may be submitted via a Separate

Rate Certification.

If Commerce finds that a PMS exists

under section 773(e) of the Act, then it

will modify its dumping calculations

appropriately.

Neither section 773(e) of the Act nor

19 CFR 351.301(c)(2)(v) set a deadline

for the submission of PMS allegations

and supporting factual information.

However, in order to administer section

773(e) of the Act, Commerce must

receive PMS allegations and supporting

factual information with enough time to

consider the submission. Thus, should

an interested party wish to submit a

PMS allegation and supporting new

factual information pursuant to section

773(e) of the Act, it must do so no later

than 20 days after submission of initial

responses to section D of the

questionnaire.

Separate Rates

In proceedings involving non-market

economy (NME) countries, Commerce

begins with a rebuttable presumption

that all companies within the country

are subject to government control and,

thus, should be assigned a single

antidumping duty deposit rate. It is

Commerce’s policy to assign all

exporters of merchandise subject to an

administrative review in an NME

country this single rate unless an

exporter can demonstrate that it is

sufficiently independent so as to be

entitled to a separate rate.

To establish whether a firm is

sufficiently independent from

government control of its export

activities to be entitled to a separate

rate, Commerce analyzes each entity

exporting the subject merchandise. In

accordance with the separate rates

criteria, Commerce assigns separate

rates to companies in NME cases only

if respondents can demonstrate the

absence of both de jure and de facto

government control over export

activities.

All firms listed below that wish to

qualify for separate rate status in the

administrative reviews involving NME

countries must complete, as

appropriate, either a separate rate

application or certification, as described

below. For these administrative reviews,

in order to demonstrate separate rate

eligibility, Commerce requires entities

for whom a review was requested, that

were assigned a separate rate in the

most recent segment of this proceeding

in which they participated, to certify

that they continue to meet the criteria

for obtaining a separate rate. The

Separate Rate Certification form will be

available on Commerce’s website at

https://enforcement.trade.gov/nme/

nme-sep-rate.html on the date of

publication of this Federal Register

notice. In responding to the

certification, please follow the

‘‘Instructions for Filing the

Certification’’ in the Separate Rate

Certification. Separate Rate

Certifications are due to Commerce no

later than 30 calendar days after

publication of this Federal Register

notice. The deadline and requirement

for submitting a Certification applies

equally to NME-owned firms, wholly

foreign-owned firms, and foreign sellers

who purchase and export subject

merchandise to the United States.

Entities that currently do not have a

separate rate from a completed segment

of the proceeding

3

should timely file a

Separate Rate Application to

demonstrate eligibility for a separate

rate in this proceeding. In addition,

companies that received a separate rate

in a completed segment of the

proceeding that have subsequently

made changes, including, but not

limited to, changes to corporate

structure, acquisitions of new

companies or facilities, or changes to

their official company name,

4

should

timely file a Separate Rate Application

to demonstrate eligibility for a separate

rate in this proceeding. The Separate

Rate Application will be available on

Commerce’s website at https://

enforcement.trade.gov/nme/nme-sep-

rate.html on the date of publication of

this Federal Register notice. In

responding to the Separate Rate

Application, refer to the instructions

contained in the application. Separate

Rate Applications are due to Commerce

no later than 30 calendar days after

publication of this Federal Register

notice. The deadline and requirement

for submitting a Separate Rate

Application applies equally to NME-

owned firms, wholly foreign-owned

firms, and foreign sellers that purchase

and export subject merchandise to the

United States.

For exporters and producers who

submit a Separate Rate Application or

Certification and subsequently are

selected as mandatory respondents,

these exporters and producers will no

longer be eligible for separate rate status

unless they respond to all parts of the

questionnaire as mandatory

respondents.

Initiation of Reviews

In accordance with 19 CFR

351.221(c)(1)(i), we are initiating

administrative reviews of the following

AD and CVD orders and findings. We

intend to issue the final results of these

reviews not later than October 31, 2021.

Commerce found that BlueScope Steel (AIS) Pty

Ltd and BlueScope Steel Distribution Pty Ltd are

affiliated with BlueScope Steel, Ltd, the company

for which a review was requested, as such, is

Duty Absorption Reviews

During any administrative review

covering all or part of a period falling

between the first and second or third

and fourth anniversary of the

publication of an AD order under 19

CFR 351.211 or a determination under

19 CFR 351.218(f)(4) to continue an

order or suspended investigation (after

sunset review), Commerce, if requested

by a domestic interested party within 30

days of the date of publication of the

notice of initiation of the review, will

determine whether AD duties have been

absorbed by an exporter or producer

subject to the review if the subject

merchandise is sold in the United States

through an importer that is affiliated

with such exporter or producer. The

request must include the name(s) of the

exporter or producer for which the

inquiry is requested.

Gap Period Liquidation

For the first administrative review of

any order, there will be no assessment

of antidumping or countervailing duties

on entries of subject merchandise

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,

for consumption during the relevant

‘‘gap’’ period of the order (i.e., the

period following the expiry of

provisional measures and before

definitive measures were put into

place), if such a gap period is applicable

to the POR.

Administrative Protective Orders and

Letters of Appearance

Interested parties must submit

applications for disclosure under

administrative protective orders in

accordance with the procedures

outlined in Commerce’s regulations at

19 CFR 351.305. Those procedures

apply to administrative reviews

included in this notice of initiation.

Parties wishing to participate in any of

these administrative reviews should

ensure that they meet the requirements

of these procedures (e.g., the filing of

separate letters of appearance as

discussed at 19 CFR 351.103(d)).

Factual Information Requirements

Commerce’s regulations identify five

categories of factual information in 19

CFR 351.102(b)(21), which are

summarized as follows: (i) Evidence

submitted in response to questionnaires;

(ii) evidence submitted in support of

allegations; (iii) publicly available

information to value factors under 19

CFR 351.408(c) or to measure the

adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR

351.511(a)(2); (iv) evidence placed on

the record by Commerce; and (v)

evidence other than factual information

described in (i)–(iv). These regulations

require any party, when submitting

factual information, to specify under

which subsection of 19 CFR

351.102(b)(21) the information is being

submitted and, if the information is

submitted to rebut, clarify, or correct

factual information already on the

record, to provide an explanation

identifying the information already on

the record that the factual information

seeks to rebut, clarify, or correct. The

regulations, at 19 CFR 351.301, also

provide specific time limits for such

factual submissions based on the type of

factual information being submitted.

Please review the Final Rule,

9

available

at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/

2013/1304frn/2013-08227.txt, prior to

submitting factual information in this

segment. Note that Commerce has

temporarily modified certain of its

requirements for serving documents

containing business proprietary

information, until further notice.

10

Any party submitting factual

information in an AD or CVD

proceeding must certify to the accuracy

and completeness of that information

using the formats provided at the end of

the Final Rule.

11

Commerce intends to

reject factual submissions in any

proceeding segments if the submitting

party does not comply with applicable

certification requirements.

Extension of Time Limits Regulation

Parties may request an extension of

time limits before a time limit

established under Part 351 expires, or as

otherwise specified by Commerce.

12

In

general, an extension request will be

considered untimely if it is filed after

the time limit established under Part

351 expires. For submissions which are

due from multiple parties

simultaneously, an extension request

will be considered untimely if it is filed

after 10:00 a.m. on the due date.

Examples include, but are not limited

to: (1) Case and rebuttal briefs, filed

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; (2) factual

information to value factors under 19

CFR 351.408(c), or to measure the

adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR

351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR

351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, clarification

and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR

351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments

concerning the selection of a surrogate

country and surrogate values and

rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP

data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under

certain circumstances, Commerce may

elect to specify a different time limit by

which extension requests will be

considered untimely for submissions

which are due from multiple parties

simultaneously. In such a case,

Commerce will inform parties in the

letter or memorandum setting forth the

deadline (including a specified time) by

which extension requests must be filed

to be considered timely. This policy also

requires that an extension request must

be made in a separate, stand-alone

submission, and clarifies the

circumstances under which Commerce

will grant untimely-filed requests for the

extension of time limits. Please review

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

:

Background

On June 2, 2020, Commerce published

in the Federal Register a notice of

opportunity to request and

administrative review of the AD order

on cold-drawn mechanical tubing from

Switzerland for the period of review

June 1, 2019, through May 31, 2020.

1

Pursuant to requests from Mubea

Pra

¨zisionsstahlrohr AG (MPST) and

Mubea Inc. (collectively, Mubea),

2

and

ArcelorMittal Tubular Products LLC,

Michigan Seamless Tube, LLC, PTC

Alliance Corp., and Webco Industries,

Inc., (the petitioners),

3

in accordance

with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of

1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR

351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce initiated an

administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on cold-drawn

mechanical tubing from Switzerland on

August 6, 2020, with respect to two

companies: Benteler Rothrist AG

(Benteler Rothrist), and, Mubea

Pra

¨zisionsstahlrohr AG (Mubea).

4

On

October 9, 2020, the petitioners timely

withdrew their request for an

administrative review with respect to

Benteler Rothrist.

5

On November 2,

2020, Mubea timely withdrew its

request for review.

6

On November 4,

2020, the petitioners withdrew their

request for an administrative review

with respect to Mubea.

7

Rescission of Review

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),

Commerce will rescind an

administrative review, in whole or in

part, if the party that requested the

review withdraws its request within 90

days of the publication date of the

notice of initiation of the requested

review. The petitioners and Mubea, the

only parties to request reviews,

withdrew their requests within the 90-

day deadline. Accordingly, we are

rescinding the administrative review of

the AD order on cold-drawn mechanical

tubing from Switzerland for the period

June 1, 2019, through May 31, 2020, in

its entirety.

Assessment

Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs

and Border Protection (CBP) to assess

antidumping duties on all appropriate

entries of cold-drawn mechanical tubing

from Switzerland. Antidumping duties

shall be assessed at rates equal to the

cash deposit rate of estimated

antidumping duties required at the time

of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse,

for consumption, in accordance with 19

CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends

to issue appropriate assessment

instructions to CBP 15 days after

publication of this notice in the Federal

Register.

Notification to Importers

This notice serves as the only

reminder to importers whose entries

will be liquidated as a result of this

rescission notice, of their responsibility

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a

certificate regarding the reimbursement

of antidumping duties prior to

liquidation of the relevant entries

during this review period. Failure to

comply with this requirement could

result in the presumption that

reimbursement of the antidumping

duties occurred and the subsequent

assessment of double antidumping

duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative

Protective Order

This notice also serves as the only

reminder to all parties subject to

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). 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

This notice is issued and published in

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and

777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR

351.213(d)(4).

Dated: December 1, 2020.
