731(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 1673d(b)), as

to manufacturers, producers, or exporters in Turkey of heavy walled 
rectangular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes, and that such products 
from Korea, Mexico, and Turkey are being sold in the United States at 
less than fair value within the meaning of section 733 of the Act (19
