[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-525 and 731-TA-1260-1261 (Final)]

Determinations

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission 
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the 
Act''), that an industry in the United States is materially injured by 
reason of imports of certain welded line pipe from Korea and Turkey, 
provided for in subheadings 7305.11, 7305.12, 7305.19, and 7306.19, 
that have been found by the Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') to be 
sold in the United States at less than fair value (``LTFV''), and that 
have been found by Commerce to be subsidized by the government of 
Turkey.

    \1\ The record is defined in sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's 
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).

Background

    The Commission, pursuant to sections 705(b) and 735(b) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)), 
instituted these investigations effective October 16, 2014, following 
receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and Commerce by 
American Cast Iron Pipe Company, Birmingham, Alabama; EnergeX, a 
division of JMC Steel Group, Chicago, Illinois; Maverick Tube 
Corporation, Houston, Texas; Northwest Pipe Company, Vancouver, 
Washington; Stupp Corporation, Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Tex-Tube 
Company, Houston, Texas; TMK IPSCO, Houston, Texas; and Welspun Tubular 
LLC USA, Little Rock, Arkansas. The final phase of the investigations 
was scheduled by the Commission following notification of preliminary 
determinations by Commerce that imports of certain welded line pipe 
from Korea and Turkey were dumped within the meaning of 733(b) of the 
Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)) and preliminary determination by Commerce that 
imports of certain welded line pipe from Turkey were subsidized within 
the meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)). Notice 
of the scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's investigations 
and of a public hearing to be held in connection therewith was given by 
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the 
notice in the Federal Register on June 12, 2015 (80 FR 33554). The 
hearing was held in Washington, DC, on October 6, 2015, and all persons 
who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by 
counsel.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to sections 
705(b) and 735(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 
U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these 
investigations on November 20, 2015. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 4580 (November 2015), entitled Certain 
Welded Line Pipe from Korea and Turkey: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-525 
and 731-TA-1260-1261 (Final).
