goods (OCTG) from India with respect to the ``all-others'' companies.

Office VII, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 18, 2014, Commerce published its 
final determination of sales at LTFV and final negative determination 
of critical circumstances in this proceeding.\1\ As part of the Final 
Determination, Commerce calculated an all-others rate of 5.79 
percent.\2\ A summary of that determination and resulting litigation 
can be found in the Amended Final Determination, which was published in 
the Federal Register on April 12, 2017.\3\ Subsequently, Commerce 
issued an Amended Order, which was published in the Federal Register on 
June 20, 2017.\4\ Commerce then published a correction to the Amended 
Final Determination and to the Amended Order on July 28, 2017.\5\ 
Commerce is now issuing a second correction to the Amended Final 
Determination and to the Amended Order as they concern the rate for all 
other producers and exporters. The rates for the two mandatory 
respondents remain unchanged.

    In June 2018, U.S. Steel sought to enforce the final judgment of 
the United States Court of International Trade (CIT) that is referenced 
in the Amended Final Determination.\6\ Specifically, U.S. Steel 
requested that the Court require Commerce to recalculate the all-others 
rate consistent with the revised weighted-average dumping margins 
reflected in the Amended Final Determination and Amended Order.\7\ On 
October 17, 2018, the CIT granted, in part, U.S. Steel's motion for 
enforcement of judgment in U.S. Steel II, and ordered Commerce to issue 
a revised notice, recalculating the all-others rate.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Amended Final Determination, 82 FR at 17631 (citing 
United States Steel Corp. v. United States, 219 F. Supp. 3d 1300 
(CIT 2017) (U.S. Steel II)).

Determination and Amendment of the Order.

No. 14-00263, Slip Op. 18-139 (CIT October 17, 2018) (U.S. Steel 
Enforcement Order).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 17, 2018, the CIT granted, in part, plaintiff U.S. 
Steel's motion to enforce the Court's March 16, 2017, order sustaining 
the remand redetermination by Commerce pertaining to the less-than-
fair-value (LTFV) investigation of OCTG from India. Accordingly, 
Commerce is issuing this notice to correct its earlier amended final 
determination and amended antidumping duty order with respect to the 
all-others rate.

Correction to the Amended Final Determination

    We are correcting the Amended Final Determination to reflect the 
recalculated all-others rate. The relevant text of the Amended Final 
Determination should have appeared as follows:

Amended Final Determination

    Because there is now a final court decision, Commerce is amending 
the Final Determination with respect to GVN single entity (comprised of 
GVN Fuels Limited, Maharashtra Seamless Limited and Jindal Pipes 
Limited),\9\ Jindal SAW, Limited, and the ``all-others'' companies. The 
revised weighted-average dumping margins for the period July 1, 2012, 
through June 30, 2013, are as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Final Determination, 79 FR at 41982, and accompanying 
IDM at Comment 9.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                     Estimated weighted-   Cash deposit
       Exporter or producer            average dumping    rate (percent)
                                      margins (percent)        \10\
------------------------------------------------------------------------
GVN Fuels Limited, Maharashtra      1.07 (de minimis)...            0.00
 Seamless Limited and Jindal Pipes.
Limited (collectively, GVN or GVN
 single entity).
Jindal SAW, Limited...............  11.24...............            0.00
All-Others........................  11.24 \11\..........       0.60 \12\
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amended Cash Deposit Rates

    Neither the GVN single entity nor Jindal SAW, Limited have a 
superseding cash deposit rate (e.g., from a subsequent administrative 
review) and, therefore, Commerce will issue revised cash deposit 
instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The revised cash 
deposit rates are indicated above, and effective March 26, 2017.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ Cash deposit rates are lower than estimated weighted-
average dumping margins due to offsets for export subsidies.
    \11\ The all-others weighted-average dumping margin is based on 
the rate calculated for Jindal SAW, the only above de minimis rate 
calculated in this proceeding.
    \12\ See Memorandum, ``Calculation of Export Subsidy Rate for 
All Others,'' dated concurrently with this notice.
    \13\ Cash deposit rates are lower than estimated weighted-
average dumping margins due to offsets for export subsidies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The all-others cash deposit rate, effective March 26, 2017, will be 
0.60 percent, the weighted average all-others dumping margin adjusted 
by the rate of export subsidies determined for all-other producers and 
exporters in the companion CVD investigation.

Correction to the Amended Order

    We are correcting the Amended Order to reflect the recalculated 
all-others rate. The relevant text of the Amended Order should have 
appeared as follows:

Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping Margins

    The estimated weighted-average dumping margins are as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                     Estimated weighted-   Cash deposit
       Exporter or producer            average dumping    rate (percent)
                                      margins (percent)        \13\
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jindal SAW, Limited...............  11.24...............            0.00
All-Others........................  11.24...............            0.60
------------------------------------------------------------------------
