[Federal Register Volume 62, Number 95 (Friday, May 16, 1997)] [Notices] [Page 27013] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 97-12793] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [A-489-501] Notice of Amended Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Certain Welded Carbon Steel Pipe and Tube From Turkey AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. EFFECTIVE DATE: May 16, 1997. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gabriel Adler at (202) 482-1442 or Kris Campbell at (202) 482-3813, Office of Antidumping/Countervailing Duty Enforcement, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230. Applicable Statute and Regulations Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA). In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations are to the current regulations, as amended by the interim regulations published in the Federal Register on May 11, 1995 (60 FR 25130). Amended Final Results On December 31, 1996, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the final results of its administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain welded carbon steel pipe and tube (pipe and tube) from Turkey, for the period of review (POR) May 1, 1994, through April 30, 1995 (61 FR 69067). On April 7, 1997, the Department published a notice of amended final results of administrative review, correcting several clerical errors in the calculation of the antidumping margin for the Borusan Group (Borusan) (62 FR 16547). On April 11, 1997, Borusan filed a timely allegation, pursuant to 19 CFR 353.28, that a ministerial error had been made in the calculation of the amended final results. Specifically, Borusan alleged that, in amending its final results to correct certain cost data, the Department failed to re-run the portion of the computer program that contained the cost test, and instead relied on a database of above-cost sales that did not incorporate the corrections to the cost data. We have determined that the April 7, 1997, amended final results of review contain the ministerial error alleged by Borusan. Therefore, in accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 353.28(c), we are further amending the final results of administrative review of steel pipe and tube from Turkey for the period May 1, 1994, through April 30, 1995, to correct this ministerial error. Scope of the Review Imports covered by this review are shipments of certain welded carbon steel pipe and tube products with an outside diameter of 0.375 inch or more but not over 16 inches, of any wall thickness. These products are currently classifiable under the following Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings: 7306.30.10.00, 7306.30.50.25, 7306.30.50.32, 7306.30.50.40, 7306.30.50.55, 7306.30.50.85, and 7306.30.50.90. These products, commonly referred to in the industry as standard pipe and tube, are produced to various American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications, most notably A-120, A-53 or A-135. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive. Amended Final Results of Review Upon correction of the above-cited ministerial error, we have determined that the following margins exist for the period indicated: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Margin Manufacturer/exporter Time period percent ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Borusan Group.............................. 5/1/94-4/30/95 2.57 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Department shall determine, and the Customs Service shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Individual differences between United States price and normal value may vary from the percentages stated above. The Department will issue appraisement instructions directly to the Customs Service. We will direct the Customs Service to collect cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in accordance with the procedures discussed in the final results of the review (61 FR 69067) and as amended by this determination. The amended deposit requirements are effective for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of this notice and shall remain in effect until publication of the final results of the next administrative review. This notice reminds importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 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 Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. This notice also reminds parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 353.34(d). Failure to comply is a violation of the APO. This administrative review and notice are in accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1)) and 19 CFR 353.28. Dated: May 9, 1997. Robert S. LaRussa, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc. 97-12793 Filed 5-15-97; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-DS-P
