SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 27, 2015, the Department informed interested parties that 
it was initiating proceedings under section 129 of the URAA to 
implement the recommendations and rulings of the WTO Dispute Settlement 
Body (DSB) in DS437.\1\ Given the number of CVD investigations and 
complexity of the issues involved in this dispute, the Department 
addressed each of the issues and conclusions of the panel and Appellate 
Body in DS437 through separate preliminary determination memoranda. 
Specifically, the Department issued preliminary determinations 
regarding: (1) Export Restraints; \2\ (2) Land; \3\ (3) Public Bodies 
and Input Specificity; \4\ and (4) Benefit (Market Distortion).\5\

    On April 1, 2016, USTR notified the Department that, consistent 
with section 129(b)(3) of the URAA, consultations with the Department 
and the appropriate congressional committees with respect to the March 
31, 2016, determinations, had been completed and USTR directed the 
Department to implement those determinations in accordance with section 
129(b)(4) of the URAA. As explained below, those determinations applied 
to Lawn Groomers, Kitchen Shelving, Steel Cylinders, Print Graphics, 
Aluminum Extrusions, Thermal Paper, and Citric Acid (``Group One 
Investigations''), as well as Wire Strand with respect to the 
Department's public body and input specificity analyses.
    On May 26, 2016, USTR notified the Department that, consistent with 
section 129(b)(3) of the URAA, consultations with the Department and 
the appropriate congressional committees with respect to the April 26, 
2016, and May 19, 2016, determinations had been completed and USTR 
directed the Department to implement those determinations in accordance 
with section 129(b)(4) of the URAA. Those determinations apply to 
Pressure Pipe, Line Pipe, OCTG, Solar Panels, Seamless Pipe, and 
Magnesia Bricks (``Group Two Investigations'') and Wire Strand with 
respect to the Department's land specificity analysis. Also on May 26, 
2016, in accordance with section 129(b)(4) of the URAA, USTR directed 
the Department to implement those determinations as well.

Nature of the Proceedings

    Section 129 of the URAA governs the nature and effect of 
determinations issued by the Department to implement findings by WTO 
dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body. Specifically, section 
129(b)(2) of the URAA provides that ``notwithstanding any provision of 
the Tariff Act of 1930,'' upon a written request from USTR, the 
Department shall issue a determination that would render its actions 
not inconsistent with an adverse finding of a WTO panel or the 
Appellate Body.\10\ The Statement of Administrative Action, U.R.A.A., 
H. Doc. 316, Vol. 1, 103d Cong. (1994) (SAA), variously refers to such 
a determination by the Department as a ``new,'' ``second,'' and 
``different'' determination.\11\ After consulting with the Department 
and the appropriate congressional committees, USTR may direct the 
Department to implement, in whole or in part, the new determination 
made under section 129 of the URAA.\12\ Pursuant to section 129(c) of 
the URAA, the new determination shall apply with respect to 
unliquidated entries of the subject merchandise that are entered or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after the date on 
which USTR directs the Department to implement the new 
determination.\13\ The new determination is subject to judicial review, 
separate and apart from judicial review of the Department's original 
determination.\14\

Final Determinations: Analysis of Comments Received

    The issues raised in the comments and rebuttal comments submitted 
by interested parties to these proceedings are addressed in the 
respective final determinations. The issues included in the respective 
final determinations are as follows: (1) Export Restraints (Magnesia 
Bricks and Seamless Pipe); (2) Land (Thermal Paper, Line Pipe, Citric 
Acid, OCTG, Wire Strand, and Seamless Pipe); (3) Public Bodies and 
Input Specificity (Pressure Pipe, Line Pipe, Lawn Groomers, Kitchen 
Shelving, OCTG, Wire Strand, Seamless Pipe, Print Graphics, Aluminum 
Extrusions, Steel Cylinders, and Solar Panels); and (4) Benefit (Market 
Distortion) (Pressure Pipe, Line Pipe, OCTG, and Solar Panels). 
Separately, the Department issued a memorandum regarding Drill Pipe, 
concluding that because the order for Drill Pipe had been revoked 
pursuant to a final and conclusive decision from the U.S. Court of 
Appeals for the Federal Circuit, there is no longer a need for the 
Department to issue a determination in connection with this proceeding 
to render it not inconsistent with the findings in WTO DS437.\15\ The 
final determinations are public documents and are on file 
electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS). 
ACCESS is available to registered users at http://access.trade.gov and 
is available to all parties in the Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of 
the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, complete 
versions of the final determinations can be accessed directly on the 
Internet at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. The signed 
versions of the final determinations and the electronic versions of the 
final determinations are identical in content.

Final Determinations: Recalculated Countervailing Duty Rates

    The recalculated CVD rates, as included in the final determinations 
and which remain unchanged from the preliminary determinations for each 
company, are listed below. As indicated, we made changes to the net 
subsidy rates in certain proceedings (i.e., Line Pipe, OCTG, Magnesia 
Bricks, and Seamless Pipe).\16\ As noted above, the CVD order for Drill 
Pipe including the corresponding CVD rates have been revoked 
independently from this Section 129 proceeding.\17\ The net subsidy 
rates for the remaining CVD proceedings in DS437 are unchanged.

Implementation of the Revised Cash Deposit Requirements

    As noted above, on April 1, 2016 and May 26, 2016, in accordance 
with sections 129(b)(4) and 129(c)(1)(B) of the URAA, USTR directed the 
Department to implement these final determinations. With respect to all 
of the investigations except for Magnesia Bricks and Seamless Pipe, the 
Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to require 
a cash deposit for estimated countervailing duties at the appropriate 
rate for each exporter/producer specified above, for entries of subject 
merchandise, entered or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on 
or after April 1, 2016, and May 26, 2016, respectively unless the 
applicable cash deposit rates have been superseded by intervening 
segments or revised based on a redetermination of the investigation as 
a result of domestic litigation. For Magnesia Bricks and Seamless Pipe, 
the Department's determinations are that there are insufficient bases 
on which to initiate investigations into the export restraint programs. 
As a result, the Department intends to reduce all cash deposit rates in 
these two proceedings applicable as of May 26, 2016. As noted above, 
the order on Drill Pipe and corresponding cash deposits instructions 
have been revoked independently from these Section 129 proceedings.\18\ 
This notice of implementation of these section 129 final determinations 
is published in accordance with section 129(c)(2)(A) of the URAA.
